| Description of the problem | No crashes or injuries. The advanced airbag system on our 2004 nissan titan disables passenger airbag when a 132 pound female is properly seated in the passenger seat.*ak we have been able to duplicate this problem in every 2004 nissan titan at a local dealer's lot. *ak our dealer states 125 pounds on the seat sensor itself is necessary to enable the airbag, claimed there was nothing wrong and refused to run any diagnostics on the system. The nissan website claims 47 pounds, consumer affairs states 60 pounds is necessary to enable the advanced airbag. It is unclear if this is pounds of pressure exerted on the seat sensor itself, or if a person of this physical weight, seated properly, would have an airbag. My 132 pound wife is exerting about 110 pounds of weight on the seat itself. |
