| Description of the problem | I have a vehicle with an intermittent passenger airbag circuit problem. It will illustrate the passenger air bag off light anytime from startup to 20 miles later. It has happened multiple times even after the recall was performed. Nissan has now informed us to wait 30 seconds after starting before engaging the transmission or stop and turn the car off. I have never owned a car that required me to turn off the interstate to restart the car. Nissan is now refusing to repair the car. |
