At 45,000 miles the air bag light came on. Dealers wants an arm, a leg, and half of the other leg to fix. This is a common problem and there is not a recall yet. Dealer says they can start replacing parts but that may not fix the problem. Verbal estimate could be around $3,200 to start! care is pristine, garage kept, never seen rain or snow. Help! please make Nissan fix this know issue.

My airbag light is flashing on my dash. I did some research and found out that there is a recall on the 2007-2008 350z for the airbag sensor - passenger. I called the Nissan dealership and was informed that there's no recalls on my specific vehicle and I was informed to contact you'll to get added to the recall database, so I can get my car repaired,.

The passenger airbag light comes on due to a faulty sensor in the seat. This is a known problem yet my VIN number is not identified in the Nissan recall data base.

The airbag light on the dash recently started flashing in this vehicle while my wife was driving. We took it to the dealer to get it diagnosed and they said the left side airbag module was faulty and that both it and the sub-harness would have to be replaced. Upon researching the issue, it appears that this seems to be a common problem with these cars. Interestingly enough, this same part was recalled on my own car, a 2004 Infiniti g35 coupe, also a Nissan product. I contacted Nissan's consumer affairs dept. To see if they could offer some assistance in resolving this issue because the dealer quoted 723$ to get it repaired. Nissan would not offer any assistance because the car was beyond any warranties. . . True the car is now 13 years old, but it has been pretty much a garaged its entire life and has only about 28,000 miles. There was no reason for these parts to go bad other than being defective. . . Considering how crucial these parts are for passenger safety, how common this issue is, and the 350z's not so stellar reputation for safety, one would think a recall would have been issued already.

Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Nissan 350z. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicles check air bag warning indicator illuminated for both the driver and passenger air bags. The contact stated that the failure had occurred on previous occasions, but wasn't sure what the notification on the instrument panel was. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 08v521000 (air bags, electrical system). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 106,000. Wh.

Air bag lights have been flashing for 3 years whether parked or in motion, dealership says $1500 to diagnose but believes bags are not functioning and advises to "drive safely" if I decide not to repair. Not on recall list which is unreal this is a safety issues as bags will not go off if in a collision according to dealership.

Like so many others that I have read, my airbag light flashes for the passengers side airbag. I am a second owner of this car that has never been involved in a wreck of any kind. This car has been babied by me as well as the previous owner. It is garage kept and hardly ever driven. Milage is only 52000 after 11 years!! light has been reset but still comes back on. This is obviously a manufactured defect and if someone is hurt because of no action I will sue Nissan as well as NHTSA for not doing anything about it!!!.

Airbag light is constantly going on, even after resetting numerous times. After reading other complaints about this issue, air bag failing is a common issue with this car. I would appreciate if NHTSA would open an investigation into premature airbag failure in 350zs.

Airbag light stays on wont go off.

Owner of Nissan 350z roadster. Car is in mint condition only has 39,000+ miles and is 10 years old. Never had any problems other than tires, battery, brakes replacement over years. All of a sudden airbag light starting flashing on dash. Took to dealer that did "diagnosis" for $100+ and said module in driver side bag code b1134 needs replacing for $1200. 00. Driver is unemployed at moment and laid-off. Dealership just said "drive safely" when leaving and deciding not to shell out $1200 at moment. Nissan refuses any goodwill to fix car even though this is an airbag related issue and possible safety hazard. Says the car is not under warranty (which is at 36,000 for Nissan) and the car has not had any major problems therefore in 10 years and has been a "good running car. " Nissan feels it is driver's responsibility to repair. Other car manufacturers constantly recall airbag devices but not Nissan -- 2007 Nissan roadster 350 has had a recall for an airbag issue. Number for 2007:NHTSA campaign number: 08v521000 and the airbag module part number is 28556cd00.

I am the original owner of a 2007 350z. I just found out today that there has been a recall on the passenger air bag sensor since November 2008. I first began to notice the passenger air bag light being off over three (3) years ago. I had my 100,000 mile service around six (6) months ago. The sensor was listed as problematic, but not identified as a potential recall. Today, I called the Nissan USA number and spoke with [xxx] who told me that my VIN # did not match the ones from the recall in November 2008. I informed her that if a passenger in my car is harmed because Nissan USA will not live up to its responsibility to its customers and community, there will be a major lawsuit coming. I feel that the callus position of the company will prevent me from purchasing from them again,,,although I like their cars.

I recently bought a used vehicle at norfolk mortorsports in norfolk va. They had bought the vehicle thru inspection and it did not pass it, according to the manager, it was missing the air bag on the passenger and they was going to buy the whole component for it instead. I had a meeting with the owner of the company along with the manager, salesperson; the owner had stated to me and my fiancã© at the time that he could have easily clipped the wire to the seat and it would pass inspection. About two weeks later I finally received the vehicle and now the passenger air bag light is showing that its on "off", to me, this indicates that they tripped the wire to let it pass inspection. I also believe that they tripped the wires for the tires lights on it. I had asked for money back but would not give it to me since it is considered a "lemon". They are only willing to give me a trade-in instead. Till this day I still have not received the title because at the time of sale they told me I had to call the day before and their administrative personnel would give it to me. They have been giving the run-around on this vehicle that I have paid in cash for. They now want to me to purchase another vehicle that is the" engine service light", along with another light about the tires. I am afraid they will also trip the wires on that vehicle so it will pass inspection. They trying to force my hand into something that I do not want instead of giving my cash back that I gave to them from the bank.

My car hasn't been in an accident or anything and yet my airbag light is flashing and my airbags are disconnected. I don't understand why my airbags won't be fixed by Nissan I'm not sure when this happened. And I'm not sure about the miles. Nissan will have this.

Just bought my 2005 350z 35 days ago and my airbag light all of a sudden begin blinking on an off. I am taking it in to the mechanic to see what could be the cause of this and hopefully he does not tell me that I have to get the airbag replaced. It is very odd to see the other complaints of this very same thing but there is no recall on them.

I have owned the vehicle for several years. I purchased an extended warranty when I purchased the car. Did no good. Nissan does not honor their warranties or promises. When my air bag light started flashing on and off continuously I wanted to know why. I knew their had to be a defect or malfunction some where. I was told that I would have to foot the bill for about 2,000. My warranty would not cover the sensor or what ever they schemed to come up with. My air bag still continuously flashes. I don't drive it much any more because it's such a nuisance. Shame on Nissan and they have lost a customer for life. . I am campaigning against them. I don't want anyone to go thru what I am still going thru. Sincerely, pissed off.

I didn't have an incident/accident yet, but after reviweing similar issues/compliants I wanted to add my concerns to the list as well. I bought a 2005 350z sept. 2013 with approximately 48,000 miles and now my air bag light is blinking. Called Nissan service and of cousre for a fee they will diagnose the problem. It seems to me they already know the problem and haven't done anything to address it. If its an issue on the 2007 edition, it's surely an issue with its predecessors.

Tl- the contact owns a 2005 Nissan 350z. The contact stated his air bag light is viable on his instrumental panel constantly . In addition the seat belt and horn have failed. The contact took his vehicle to the dealer. The dealer stated the air bag sensory module and tire pressure sensors were defective and would need to be replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 78,000. Az.

I bought this vehicle used about 5 years ago. About 2 years ago I started to have a flashing air bag light on for no reason. This happens randomly usually when I just start the car up. As with most owners in the north I don't drive it in the winter so I put on around 35k since I bought it. I searched the web to see if anyone was having the same problem and they sure were. I tried the reset procedure found online and it worked for awhile. Now it comes on more often and I just try to reset it again. It didn't take much searching to find out that Nissan is charging owners (my year) $600-3,000 to repair and the problem came back for some again. Some even reported having an accident and the bags did not deploy. I have not had it to a dealer simply because I can't afford to replace the seats some have had to.

Swerved car to avoid hitting a deer. When I straightened out the car the air bag light was on. Took car to the dealer who said I needed to install a whole passenger seat. Approx $1500-2000 dollars. When checking out different websites there are many many complaints about air bag lights going on. All were told seats needed to be replaced. This car has on 25000 miles now. As I only use the car when I am by myself for fear of the passenger airbag not going off. Can't even sell the car with this problem.

Took my to the local Nissan dealer after the airbag light started flashing continuously and paid $85 for the test which indicated the passenger side airbag needed to be replaced. At the time, the car had less than 40,000 miles. The estimated cost of the replacement was $600. I have not replaced the bag yet but have avoided carrying passengers to minimize risk of injury. I have contacted Nissan and been told that this is not a recall item which seems hard to understand after reviewing numerous posts about this problem and other passenger side recalls.

The contact owns a 2005 Nissan 350z. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator was illumintated. The contact took the vehicle to warner Nissan (1070 bright rd, findlay, OH 45840 (419) 423-7162) where it was diagnosed that both frontal air bags needed replacement. The vehicle was not repaired due to cost. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed him that the failure was related to the seat belt. No other assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 45,270.

This is a follow-up to my initial complaint (confirmation # 10516123) referring to my passenger side air bag which was found to have failed the diagnostic check on 6//6/13. Since my initial complaint, Nissan corporation in tennessee had requested me to have a second diagnostic check done at a Nissan dealership to verify or dispute the findings at the infinity dealership where I had purchased the 350z. As stated in my initial complaint, the drivers side air bag light was on just prior to my purchasing this vehicle and the bag was replaced (no charge) before I drove it off the lot. An appointment for 6/19/13 at 1:00 p. M. Was schedule with Nissan of cherry hill (NJ) and I arrived several minutes early since I was not familiar with their location or procedures. After waiting for 45 minutes I observed that my vehicle was still in the same slot I had parked in ( I attributed this to lunch hour) but went over to the service desk and inquired about the delay and was advised that the first available technician would do the check and it should not take more than 20 minutes. In discussing this matter with the service manage, mike cristella, I advised him of the circumstance behind this appointment and my contact with Nissan in tennessee. As I told him about the problem he stopped me when I pointed out that the icon light was out upon my getting the car back from the first dealership, he then told me that the diagnostic would not be accurate without the light on since it would not show the code or proper history of the problem. I'm quoting him here "on the scale of 10, your chances of this check being right, is a 4". I then told him that I could not in good faith do a check knowing that it was only 40% chance of getting it right. I called Nissan twice while there, but no response. 6/20/13 a voicemail from a beverly, I called but got her voicemail. This is where it stands.

The contact owns a 2008 Nissan 350z. The contact stated that the air bag light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnosis and the contact was waiting on the results. The contact was also informed of a recall under NHTSA campaign id number: 08v521000 (air bags) and contacted the manufacturer, who stated that the VIN was not included. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 57,000.

Prior to the accident the airbag light stayed on took it to the dealership and they said it was a error code. On June 4th I had a car accident and the airbag didn't deploy just the airbag light indicator just stayed on. Even until today it is still on cause I can not afford 3 grand to replace the driver side seat which I was told the problem was.

I have a 2005 350z roadster, aprox mid summer my airbag light came on and stayed on. I put the car in storage for winter when I took it out this spring I brought it to the dealer and asked them to check the light. The dealer confirmed the airbag lite was code b1129, and told me I would have to have the airbag replaced. The air bag just "went bad". I dont feel this is a maintenance issue, I could not have done anything to prevent this from happening and dont feel I should be responsible for this repair. This is a safety issue and I believe Nissan should replace the air bag if infact this is the prob, since getting my car from the dealer the airbag lite hasn't come back on yet. Is this really an airbag gone bad or a dealership trying to boost their sales?.

2004 Nissan 350z. Current mileage - 58,000+. Purchased new from a local dealer in November of 2004, after searching all of the dealers in central florida for the z that had the trim and safety package that we wanted. Beginning in 2007, the vehicle has had ongoing problems with the airbag light / airbags / diagnostic unit: 08/08/07 - airbag light is on - “false code� 08/14/08 - airbag light is on - “ordered left side airbag� 08/27/08 - “replaced failed left airbag unit� 11/11/08 - airbag light is on - “found pass codes clear all ok� 05/03/10 - airbag light is on - “needs diag unit and pass side curtain air bag� 06/22/10 - “replaced diag unit and rh side module� 11/08/10 - airbag light is on - “recommend lh front side air bag and diagnosis sensor� we were told by our dealer that the diagnosis sensor would be covered under warranty because it was less than five months since it had been replaced, but that we would need to pay over $700 for the airbag to be replaced. Logic tells us that the airbag may not need to be replaced if the diagnosis sensor is bad, but our local dealer is telling us that Nissan will not allow the diagnosis sensor to be replaced without also replacing the airbag. Logic also tells us that, unlike other parts, the airbags are not “wearing� items that require maintenance or replacement (unless they deploy, of course), so why do they need replacing? we contacted Nissanusa and asked that the faulty diagnosis sensor be replaced with one that will work for longer than five months, and will stop giving false codes. We also asked Nissan to replace the airbag at no cost to us because it is their 'requirement'. This morning, a regional representative from Nissanusa finally contacted us, and we were told that we would have to pay for the airbag if we wanted the faulty diagnosis sensor replaced! our concern is for our safety. What will happen if we have an accident? will any of the airbags deploy??.

Airbag light on 2004 350z touring roadster continues to flash. Diagnostic investigation gives no particular code that leads to prompt correction of airbag system malfunction.

I own a 2006 Nissan 350z roadster. The passenger airbag indicator light came on blinking none stop. The symptom is similar to the Nissan 2007 and 2008 model described in the NHTSA recall bulletin. I want to know if the recall can be expanded to include older models?.

On 06/08/09, I took my Nissan 350z in to for an oil change and because the air bag light was flashing. I received a call later that day indicating that the entire system would need to be replaced. The costs quoted for this service were: - diagnosis (already paid) $120. 00 - replacement of 2 parts $1,450. 00 - tax, repair not estimated the car has only 31,360 miles on it and has always been garaged and seldom driven in the winter. I have never had this type of problem with any other vehicle that I have owned. The car was purchased at this dealer on 04/28/04 and is 5 years and 2 weeks old. I spoke with the regional specialist on 6/15/09), and she informed me that Nissan was not willing to provide me any assistance in this matter. She said she had also covered this with the district manager.

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan 350z. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the pearson Nissan dealer where it was diagnosed that the failure was due to the air bag modules. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The failure recurred and was repaired twice a year for the past seven years. The manufacturer was notified, but did not assist. The failure mileage was approximately 45,532.

The contact sustained minor injuries. The vehicle filpped over and none of the air bags deployed. A police report was filed. The air bag indicator was illuminated two days prior to the crash.

Takata recall I own a 2005 Nissan 350 z. The airbag light has been on for a few years now. The dealership told me that it would cost 1000 to fix it. I've in florida (very humid). Why has my car's airbags not been recalled?.

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.
