1 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 08/13/2016

I have to recall that shows on my car fax, but one recall have to parts to replace since may 23,2016. Have only received 1 letter in mail after I call Nissan 1800 number. The second happen today for co2 sensor. I call and there are no solution in place, I brought this vehicle new and now I feel its a lemon, they even made me replace the brake fluid due to it being black, too early for me if SUV is new. I want to know if lives are in danger why cant I get it replace or get a loaner??? and what is the government going to do with defected merchandise being sold at high value???.

2 Front Air Bag Sensor Control problem

Failure Date: 04/17/2016

There have been several incidents where a full size adult passenger has been riding in the front passenger seat and the airbag sensor does not detect the adult and turns off the airbag. There have been times wher the vehicle is parked and when the passenger gets in, before the car is started, once the car is started, the airbag is already off before we leave. Other times in the middle of driving the air bag will just turn off. Something is remains on for the whole trip until the vehicle is turned off once we reach our destination, other times the light will turn off and the airbag turns back on before we arrive at our destination. I contacted my local Nissan dealer and was told, yea, they are real sensitive and if the light is activated the air bag is turned off and will not work. Brought my vehicle in today and insisted they look at it. Said they would do a zero reset on the system and see if that will fix it. Most recent incident was April 17, 2016. Have more photos from past incidents as well.

The airbag sensor for the front passenger side seat does not work properly. There can be a large adult in the seat, and the sensor shows the airbag off. We bought the car new, as a demo, with approximately 5,000 miles on it. This has happened more than one time.
