Description of the problem | My car falls under this recall... Yet when i take it to the dealership, or look on line on their site. They will not honor the recall- will not fix my car!! What can i do about it? How can i get my car fixed. Below is 1 of 100 articles about it on the internet: nissan is recalling 134,000 infiniti g35 vehicles due to a defect in their airbag systems that could cause the safety feature not to deploy in an accident. The recall affects 2005 to 2006 models of the infiniti g35 sedan and 2005 to 2007 models of the g35 coupe. According to the national highway traffic safety administration: ? The wire harness connecting the belt tension sensor (bts) and the occupant detection sensor (ods) control unit under the front passenger seat can experience relative movement which can cause wear and oxidization of the terminals and may cause interruption of the signal.? In other words, ? The air bag may not deploy and could increase the risk of an injury,? Explains the detroit news. ? The automaker has not yet notified the feds of how the faulty wire harnesses will be fixed, but the official recall is now being announced, just two weeks after the potential problem was reported to nhtsa,? Writes autoblog. Still, the detroit free press reports that nissan spokesman [xxx] said if a vehicle's red air bag warning light had turned on, the owner can bring their car into their dealer for repair.? Some 2007 and 2008 g35 and g37 models have already been through a similar recall. Systems that detect whether a passenger is present in the front passenger? S seat and turn the relevant airbags on or off have proven problematic for several automakers. Bmw and hyundai have issued similar recalls for the same system in recent years. Owners with questions should contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
