Front Air Bag Sensor Control problems of the 2007 Nissan Frontier

Apparently my vehicle is not covered by the below campaign when in fact it's exhibiting the behavior explained on the recall. I called the dealer in sunnyvale CA and they confirmed that is not covered. Nissan should take responsibility for the faulty airbag sensor across the board not just in some states! NHTSA campaign 08v690000 report date: Dec 18, 2008 vehicles affected: 242720.

Continues airbag problems. From the satellite airbag sensors being rusty and water intrusion to the occupant air bag sensor. I have also had continuous misfires that have caused the catalytic converter on bank 1 to fail.

The airbag sensor began flashing when driving on a highway and the error code is for the passenger seatbelt. The non-dealer mechanic was not able to repair and the airbags are deactivated. The engine control module failed when the vehicle was in motion on a city street. The ecm is not available from Nissan or after market for this 10 year old vehicle. The ecm cannot be rebuilt. Thus, this low mileage vehicle in otherwise excellent condition is now junk. Nissan has failed to provide expected vehicle reliability and consumer protections. Apparently, Nissan ceased manufacture (including after market) of this critical engine component soon after initial sale without making any provisions for replacement upon failure. I am told that this is a standard business practice for Nissan.

Letter on behalf of constituent requesting assistance in getting the airbag sensor (which was recalled) repaired on his 2007 Nissan Frontier; reply to attn: josiah manzo/orlando office. The consumer stated Nissan refused to fix the air bags on his vehicle, even though the vehicle was recalled. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer on January 3, 2013. The service advisor informed him, the air bag module had failed internally and the repair estimate was $ 945. 35. The dealer refused repair, because the consumer did not have the vehicle serviced there.
