2 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 09/06/2015

I have a 2009 Nissan Murano that in my opinion has a very dangerous safety flaw. A small sensor in the passenger seat has decided not to function properly for no apparent reason(the air bag sensor light on the dash just began to blink back on 9/6/15, I reset it several times but it just continued turning back on) that sensor now causes for neither airbag (passenger or drivers seat) to work in case of an accident. I took the car to the dealer on 10/17/15 and they gave me a quote that is $ 3568 plus labor for repair, I complained to Nissan consumer affairs and all they could do is give a 50% discount for the repair. I feel that Nissan should repair this as it is a great safety flaw of the vehicle, my vehicle is not safe in case of an accident as neither the driver or passenger airbag will function if I am in an accident.

5 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2010

I was driving last night and my air bag sensor started blinking in the dash for no apparent reason. Less then 6 months ago I had the same issue. I contacted the dealership and Nissan consumer affairs to inform them of the problem. They had my car for almost a month and I thought it had been fixed. This is the second time for this issue to occur. I do not in anyway feel safe in this car. It goes back to the dealership to be repaired again and I want it permanently fixed. I don't know the equipment details so you'll have to check with Nissan. I had to put something in order to proceed with complaint.
