2012 Nissan Pathfinder Airbags Problems

You were in a 40 mph car accident, but your front airbags failed to deploy. This is a serious safety issue that needs immediate investigation, as airbags are designed to protect you in exactly this type of collision.

Your airbags failed to deploy when you collided with a deer while driving at 75 mph. Although there were no injuries in this crash, the airbag system did not activate as it should have. The manufacturer has been notified, and your vehicle has not yet been diagnosed or repaired. You'll likely need a full airbag system diagnostic and potentially replacement of the airbag control module or sensors.

You took your car in for an airbag recall repair, but the work wasn't completed correctly — a clip wasn't properly secured. The airbag warning light started flashing again after the repair. The dealer told you the recall period has expired and you'd have to pay for a second repair attempt. You're concerned the airbag could deploy unexpectedly while driving. Getting the dealer or Nissan to complete the recall repair properly without charging you may require escalating your complaint through Nissan's customer service or filing a formal complaint with NHTSA.
