Description of the problem | Purchased a new 2013 pathfinder in november of 2012. We experienced the problem reported per the air bag recall. We had the recall performed. Subsequent to the recall repairs, we have on multiple occasions had the airbag off light illuminate with an adult in the passenger seat. The problem is intermittent. We took the vehicle to a dealer. He was unable to duplicate the problem and unwilling to pursue a repair. He called nissan tech support and printed information to instruct us on how the system operates and on how to sit correctly in the seat. We have driven for many years and are aware of how seats work. We called nissan to escalate the issue. Clearly, based on our experience and the multiple complaints on the nhtsa site, nissan has failed to address this safety issue. |
