Air Bags · reported Jan 3, 2024
Air bag light went off beginning of Nov 2023. Took to the dealership, they diagnosed the air bag module and harness as bad. Paid $2k to replace that, took 2 days for part to arrive. Fast forward, mid December 2023, air bag light on again. Take back to dealership and now the passenger side air bag has failed and needs to be replaced. $3k estimated to replace. Many Nissan vehicles (much later year models) have passenger side air bag recalls. This should be under recall as well as the module.
