February 2009 I purchase a 2009 Nissan Maxima VIN#1n4aa51e29c. . . . . . . There have been minor issues that I have dealt with. Let me explain, first the motors that move the steering column up/down (warranty covered) and in/out (a $600 estimate) both have gone out. Secondly, the left front tire pressure sensor ($186) was found to be faulty on February 20, 2015 with mileage of 47,859. Thirdly, the front left strut ($142) had to be replaced and both front strut mounts have been replaced ($176), which is a recall for some vehicles but not mine. I'm confused by this but let's move on the biggest problem I'm having with Nissan. Today the only recall on my 09 Maxima has been the escl, which was replaced on July 21, 2017 with 73,429 miles of the car. I immediately noticed a different sound when starting the car. I was told there was nothing they could do about the sound, so I drove the car home. Shortly after, the airbag light on the dashboard started blinking and the passenger airbag indicator came on. On February 19, 2018, my car was taken to a local Nissan dealership to get the airbag system fixed with 76,443 miles on the car. The service department ran a diagnostic report ($95) finding code dct b1018 as a problem. They reported their findings to me and gave an estimate of the repairs to be between $2,000 and $4,000, a big difference. I talked with the service department about what had to be done to fix the airbag system, how much time the repairs would take, why such a wide spread in the financial estimate and what may have caused this problem. I learned a lot from this conversation. The biggest surprise was learning that Nissan changed how their airbag system sensors worked from always on to off until a seat was occupied. I would feel more like a valued customer when Nissan pays 100% of a problem that has been caused by �no fault� of the consumer.
Air bag light appears at all times on dashboard blinking.
The airbag system stopped working. The airbag light continues to flash and the cruise control has stopped working. The vehicle was stationary when this started.
Upon starting the car, air bag light continues to blink and does not go out. The indication is that something is wrong with the air bag system, thus making the vehicle unsafe to drive.
My airbag light stays on when I'm driving and I'm sure it is faulty. Also the light indicator for my tire pressure stays on even though I've put adequate air in the tire. This occurs while the car is motion and when it is not in motion.
The driver side airbag has malfunction with the light constantly flashing. Took vehicle to Nissan dealers to diagnose what is causing the problem with airbag light constantly flashing and was told they do not know, but if I get involve in an accident the airbag probably will not inflate. They print out several steps Nissan north America recommends to fix the problem which would cost me thousands of dollars. My seat-belts are powertrain until 2018. This makes no since that my driver side airbag all of a sudden stop working even though I have had no accidents involving my car therefore, Nissan should voluntarily fix the problem before I am involved in an accident and my airbag does not inflate which could lead to deadly consequences. I want the fhta to contact Nissan and have them to work to resolve this issue before it leaves to something seriously. Nissan dealer even stated that this problem might have happen by me turning my steering wheel which made no sense to me.
Takata recall - the airbag light is on and per the dealer the spiral cable and clock spring needs to be replaced. They explained that the part is what's needed for the airbag to return back once deployed. They informed me the airbag will deploy if in an accident, but it won't return like it was originally designed to do. The vehicle has never been in an accident; therefore, the airbag hasn't been deployed.
The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Maxima. While the contact's 85 pound wife was seated in the passenger seat, the air bag light illuminated and dimmed intermittently. The sales dealer stated that the light should work properly with someone between 70-80 lbs in the seat. After inspecting the vehicle, the dealer and the manufacturer stated that nothing could be done. The current mileage was 4,190 and failure mileage was approximately 3,000. Updated 04/21/08.
