| Description of the problem | On 8/31/2018, i took my 2014 nissan altima into the fred hass nissan svc, dept. For an oil change, in tomball tx and while there, reported that the supplemental air bag warning light was remaining on after 7 seconds and remained on all the while the vehicle was being driven. The service advisor stated that code found was cleared and no repair was recommended. On 9/5/2018, i spoke with (xxxx), svc, mgr. At fred nissan and informed him that the supplemental air bag warning light was on again. Mr. (xxxx) made a 7am appointment for me to bring my vehicle to the svc. Dept., on 9/6/2018 for further diagnosis and he would contact nissan for recommendations. Later on, mr. (xxxx) informed me that he had spoken with someone at nissan and was told that nissan would not cover the cost of any current or future repairs to the supplemental air system, even though it was a safety issue. Unfortunately, the gold extended warranty i purchased does not cover malfunctions of supplemental air bag system or any of its components. The supplemental air bag warning light continues to come on upon a cold and warm start and remains on while the vehicle is being driven. |
