| Description of the problem | The passenger front air bag sensor has failed. The air bag is always off with a red warning on the console, regardless if there is someone in the passenger or not. Other altima's of that model year have had recalls issued for this problem. My car is not on the recall list. You can't imagine how much nissan wants to replace the sensor. |
