Description of the problem | Passenger side airbag light started flashing, took to columbus infiniti who told me faulty electrical system and to fix over $3000. I said no went home and looked up on internet 2 recalls feb 2008 and oct 2008 for the same problem, 08v521000 and 08v066000. I called back dealer and they told me even though it is the same problem my call was not involved in these recalls. I contacted infiniti corp and filed a complaint. Result was my car not included in the recall but they would be half the repair or $1500 and give me a discount if i bought a new infiniti. I don't want a new infiniti even though i have owned 5 after this poor service. I feel this is a serious safety issue but i don't feel i should have to pay for a repair for a problem that has been involved in 2 recalls but saying even though i have the same problem my car isn't involved.
