I have a 2005 Nissan 350z but the incident was not with my car but a my friend's car. He has the same year model Nissan 350z as mine he's airbag light came on after a 1 year of owning he's car. He took it to the dealer and was told that he's airbag module had gone bad. Now he made a choice not to have it replace because the part was $750 dollar. He drove the car like this for about a 6 months was hit by another car and he's air bag's did not deploy because of the module issue and was seriously hurt. Now about 3 days ago my airbag light came on in my car. I just took my car to the dealer today and was told that the airbag module is the issue and will need to be replaced,again the cost to replace is $750 dollars. This is obviously a problem with the part that Nissan is using on there vehicle's. I fear that if I don't have this part replaced and have a accident the same thing that happen to my friend will happen to me. I have done research on this issue and found that Nissan has issued a recall on newer model 350z, 2007 model has the same issue and Nissan know this so they have recalled the module. This is a issue on 2005 model too. Nissan should do something about it. This is the recall number for 2007:NHTSA campaign number: 08v521000 and the airbag module part number is 28556cd00.
Cpsc# i1170445a 2005 Nissan 350z. Bosch automotive battery. Battery acid was discharging. Also eating it's way through the engine firewall and dissolving engine wires near the battery. Bosche wanted the consumer to return the battery, but would not accept any liability.
While driving at around 40mph, my 2005 Nissan 350z (41xxx miles) shut down completely. No power, brakes, steering, anything. I glided to a stop and pulled over as best as I could. Every indicator light came check engine, service soon, tire pressure, etc. I was on a flat, busy city street going straight when this happened. Prior to this, I had no indication of a potential problem. No check engine light, etc. I called aaa and after about 20 minutes, decided to see if it would start so I could move to a safer place. It started right up. I've since been able to start and drive but this was extremely dangerous. Had this happened on the freeway, it could have been a catastrophe for me and the drivers around me. It's a very concerning safety issue. I've read it is ongoing with Nissans the same age as mine. Some were recalled and repaired but I looked up my VIN and it's not covered. Taking it to a dealer tomorrow but appreciate any help reporting and resolving this issue. Thanks.
