The contact owns a 2021 Nissan Frontier. The contact stated while driving 75 mph, the air bag warning light illuminated and was flashing. The contact continued driving to his residence. The following day the vehicle was taken to a dealer to be inspected. The mechanic found and tightened a loose wire to fix the failure however, several days later the failure recurred. The contact took the vehicle back to the local dealer who reset the air bag sensor to clear the code. The contact was concerned that the failure would recur. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 2,000.
When someone is sitting in passenger seat the light for their airbag blinks, is on or off. So we are unsure if the airbag would in fact deploy if we were to be in a collision.
I [xxx] purchased the vehicle from daytona, Nissan on [xxx] on the morning of [xxx], the airbag light came on. And was flashing. I took videos of all the different occurrences. I went back to the dealership and talked to the salesman that sold it to us. His name was simon. And he brought us in, and we were talking to a manager they disconnected the battery and try to reset it as we were leaving, the salesman walked us out. When we fired up the vehicle, the whole dash flashed and went black in front of the salesman. A day later, we broke down in the truck and had to be jumped. We took it to the dealership, and they put a new battery in and a couple days later, it came on again. But took it in again, and they put us in a rental car for a week they told us when we got the truck back that they changed a airbag sensor and then a couple weeks later, my son was driving and the vehicle stalled on him while driving it took him 4x to fire it back up. When it did fire back up, it would only go 7 mile an hour. And it was jerking forward. He took it directly to Nissan. They ran some diagnostic on it. And disconnect the battery again, but they couldn't see it. Do it again. So on [xxx] the airbag light came back on. And finally on September 11th we took it back to the dealership, and they put us in a rental car. And the mechanic told us that he thinks that it possibly could be the indicator light. The parts manager at daytona Nissan said he's looked on the website and they said that the part that we need is on. Indefinite, back order and probably won't get it.
