| Description of the problem | The front passenger side airbag indicator light intermittently indicates that the passenger airbag is off when someone is sitting in the passenger seat. This generally happens when i first turn the vehicle on and there is someone already sitting in the front passenger seat. If i shut the vehicle off and turn it back on then the airbag light will go off indicating that the airbag is on. I took it to the nissan dealer and they said that the computer does not show a problem and that there is nothing that they can do about it. They told me that the airbag system was under warranty through 99,999 miles or 2030 if there is an incident it would be covered. That is not very reassuring to hear that if the airbag fails it will be cover under warranty. |
