| Description of the problem | I have a 2016 nissan frontier with only 68,000 miles on it. The airbag light on the dash started flashing. I took it to any mohr nissan and they diagnosed that the sensor inside the passenger seat that tells the system if someone is sitting there has failed and that it is an $1800 repair, because the only way to fix it is to replace the whole seat. They said they couldn't say whether the airbag would deploy or not in an accident if i didn't fix the sensor. |
