Airbag light came on and passenger airbag was disabled with an adult sitting in the seat. 2 airbag sensors and the control unit need to be replaced to make the car safe to drive with a passenger.

I have been charged $930 for parts and labors for the repair although my car is still under the extended warranty that I purchased. My car was purchased used, but has no outstanding recalls, but it is possible that this is the same sensor that should have been replaced in a prior recall.

The light came back on a few weeks ago. Now when I take it in they tell me they have to replace one or two sensors each costing $1000 that is not covered up the extended warranty. There seems to be dozens of people with this same car having this same issue. I don't feel safe driving the car but I also don't want to put $2000 into a 2013 car.

50 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2015 Nissan Altima

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

I have a 2015 Nissan Altima s and the airbag light has been on for about 6 months. I took it to the dealership and the first time they said it was the module and fix for $1000 - second time they said it was the seat. - I didn't even get a quote for that. I contacted Nissan and they said since my car is not on recall for the airbags I would have to pay for it myself. If I remember correctly, I believe I contacted them twice and got the same response. It passes inspection so I will just live (or die) with the light on. I just hope the airbags deploy if I have an accident.

59 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2013 Nissan Altima

Failure Date: 05/14/2019

I took my car to the dealer to have them see why the airbag lights stay on. The seat belts were on and they just stayed on. The driver side would sometimes go off but the passenger side stayed on even when driving the vehicle. I was told that they cleared an error code but no guarantee that it will not reoccur and that this has nothing to do with the recall on the vehicle and if it happens again I will have to come out of my pocket for $1000 or so dollars even though I a extended warranty on it that somehow doesn't cover. I feel as though the issue was not fixed the first time and they did the bare minimum and passed the rest on to the customer. I am horrified at all the stories I am reading on the internet with others having the same issues, I have around 40000 miles on my car now so you see I don't do alot of hard traveling but want to know my vehicle is safe to drive.
