My airbag light has been flashing. I took it to the dealer and I was told that my airbag modular failed due to corrosion and that there's only 1 left in the whole united states. They are trying to charge me $1,500. 00 to fix this problem, when it was recalled previously by Nissan. I live in maryland and was never aware of this recall and Nissan shows no recalls ever made on my vehicle.
Passenger airbag light went on last night while driving about 35mph engine shut off completely, no power no lights. It had shut off on me about 1 week ago immediately after starting.
Passenger airbag light is on. Conserved about safety to drive the car.
May14,2019 my horn stopped working and my air bag light is flashing. Noticed my air bag came on when I started it up on may 14, 2019 also that day I had a car pull out in front me and noticed the horn does not work either. After googling the problem I was informed Nissan had a recall but dealers were not fixing the problem and charging customers to fix it at their cost.

Air bag light blinkin.
Airbag light had come on indicating an issue, but also light and controls on the steering wheel are failing. Vehicle has never been in an accident and there is no reason for this failure. Abs brakes activate randomly without warning preventing and causing the inability to stop. Abs can not be stopped unless I stop and turn off my vehicle and start again. Very dangerous. Cant stop when I need to. During city driving on a dry surface and approaching a stop light my brakes failed several times with the abs activating and making it impossible to stop. Random and without warning. Front differential cracked for no apparent reason and didn't provide any warnings, pinion seal leak appeared less than two years. In addition vehicle was in service for evap system 11 times in the first year without resolve. Gad consumptions was horrible and below any suggested mpg. Tire sensors have never worked and failed to alert low pressure in tires. Tire pressure has been unstable no mater what tires are installed or how many sensors are put on. Stability in steering is sloppy when going over any kind of bump in the road. Unstable when driving. Speed can cause problems when driving curves. Rollovers are definitely possible without much speed when on ramps and curves. Use extreme caution.

All steering wheel lights do not work. Horn does not work and airbag light is flashing. I replaced busted radiator at 115,000 miles. Vehicle would turn off at any speed. It is only a matter of time before people get killed due to this defect. I had to replace several sensors. My vehicle has currently been parked in my driveway for over 3 weeks. I cannot figure out what is wrong with it. It is a shame that this company is being allowed to get away with all this. It is not a matter of if someone gets killed, if it hasn't happened yet, but when. This is the worst vehicle I have ever owned and will never purchase another vehicle from this company again.

Service engine light came on, followed by airbag light. A diagnostic at the dealer showed the "sending unit" on the fuel gauge was not functioning and the airbag sensor was also not functioning. When I googled it, I found several recalls on this year/make/model (on your website). The fuel gauge system will say there is 1/4 gas when it's empty or will drop to "e" for empty when there is still gas in the tank. I now have to use my odometer to gauge my gas usage since I ran out of gas in the middle of an intersection at rush hour a few weeks ago. At the same time the service engine light came on for the sending unit issue, the red airbag light came on as well. So I'm driving around in a car that has faulty airbag sensors and fuel gauge sending unit. The two issues are doing the exact same thing the recall notices describe, yet it's not part of the recalls? I have been in contact with corporate Nissan via email twice now and they refuse to acknowledge these recalls apply to my vehicle/VIN #. I am the second owner of the vehicle (it was purchased via auction in new york) and thought that was why I had not received the recall notices. However, it turns out Nissan will not disclose which VIN numbers were part of those recalls and refuse to pay the repair services for either issue citing my VIN# was not included in the recall notices. Then why is my car doing exactly what is described in the recall notices?.
I purchased my 2008 Nissan Pathfinder in early January 2009. Early February 2009 my friend sat in the passenger seat and the airbag light came on indicating that it was not on. She is at least 5 feet 8 inches and 135 pounds. I am also the same height and weight and it didn't work for me when I sat in the passenger seat as well. This occurs every time someone lighter than 160lbs sits in the passenger seat. I brought the car in for service and they told me that it was functioning properly and if the person in the passenger seat wasn't sitting in such a way to touch the sensor, then it would not work. They also told me that it is operating properly according to Nissan standards. So if I or my passenger are not sitting in the seat in such a way to set off the sensor, then we aren't protected. It wasn't as if we were sitting on our knees or in some weird position. We were sitting as we would in any vehicle. I also brought up that in an accident, when the car is being jostled around, that controlling how we sit in the seat is the last thing on our mind and we wouldn't get the benefit of an airbag? I also brought up that the driver airbag light does not go on and I am the one who usually drives it. They told me that the driver airbag always stays on because it is the driver. Nissan has not given me any resolution to this problem. Thank you for your time.
