| Component | AIR BAGS |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The passenger airbag light turns on and the airbag shuts off while a person is sitting in the seat and the car is in motion. This happened at 50,000 miles and nissan replaced the seat. It happened again at 79,000 and nissan will not fix the problem. The dealership turned off the blinking light but again when a person sat in the seat the airbag turned off again. I was told that they are not sure if the airbag is working. I have an extended warranty (100,000 miles) but they still refuse to fix the problem. This is the same problem that nissan has recalled older and newer models of the rogue. I did research on-line and this is an ongoing problem with rogues and other nissan vehicle. This should be a recall item for the safety of passengers because for no reason the airbag malfunctions during use and where it is safe to pull over. I called the nissan complaint department and they told me i should be happy because other people have this problem and it occurs more frequently. I'm not happy or impressed, still no recall. Please help there are citizens that have this problem and nissan is ignoring us. *js |
