1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/14/2023

Since buying the vehicle new, the airbag light has been on and off throughout the entire time (the vehicle has never been crashed). I have brought it in to multiple dealerships asking for them to take a look at it and have never gotten much feedback other than them resetting it or having replaced wiring due to previous recalls. I was alerted recently of the airbag control unit now needing to be replaced. With Nissan's history of questionable electrical efforts, the component seems like something that may need to be evaluated in some capacity.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/05/2023

Hit a cement barrier going 60 mph at a 45 degree angle on the passenger side and only the passenger side curtain airbag deployed.
