Description of the problem	My 2014 nissan altima drivers side airbag light has come on for the fourth time since new. (todays date 09/26/2016) the first two times, nissan reset it and conveniently didn't make a record of it in the repair history while it was in warranty. I took it in a few weeks ago because the light was on again, they said it was a loose connection under the seat caused by a box of kleenex, which i think is not true. Last week the light came back on again with nothing under the seat. This time, they said i need a new airbag at a cost of $1100, claiming i never brought it in for the drivers side and that i have to pay for it because my car now has 70k miles on it, never-mind it is only 2 years old. My main concern is that this clear and obvious defect causes a significant risk to the occupants because it prevents any of the airbags from deploying in an accident. I cannot afford to spend over $1000 on a part that should never go bad on a car that is only 2 years old. Fyi: the vehicle was in motion when the airbag light came on every time and every time it came on there was nobody in the back seat, nor was the seat being adjusted or was anything interfering with the plug, as nissan tries to claim.
