2012 Nissan Rogue Airbags Problems

Your passenger side airbag is not working properly. The dealer has indicated that a faulty sensor in the passenger seat is the likely cause. This is a serious safety issue that needs immediate attention before anyone sits in that seat.

Front passenger occupancy sensor failed. Other years have a recall on this sensor, why not 2012.

Nissan driver side air bag, the air bag deployed, could have been deadly.

Censor light came on making the vehicle unsafe to drive and unable to be inspected and the manufacturer said it's a known defect with the sensor but is not under recall so they are not under obligation to repair. Estimated costs to repair $3000. They said for year 2013 and beyond it was covered by a recall but not for my vin number

An airbag light came on on the dashboard of the vehicle. The Nissan Dealership diagnosed the “D/S AIRBAG MODULE OPEN” and quoted me for $1,614.64. They said the airbag was faulty and would not deploy in the event of an accident.

FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON IN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND DASH BOARD LOCATED NEAR PASSENGER SEAT. 2012 NISSAN ROUGE WAS INSPECTED BY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER TECHNICIAN AND DETERMINED THE SEAT SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE AND MUST BE REPLACED. THE DIAGNOSIS COST $130. REPAIR COST IN WRITING TOTALS $2,400 TO REPLACE SEAR CUSHION. THIS SEEMS EXCESSIVE, AS IT IS A PASSENGER SAFETY ISSUE, IS IT COVERED BY RECALL? THIS VEHICLE IS A 2012 MODEL PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2011.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GAINESVILLE NISSAN (3915 NORTH MAIN STREET, GAINESVILLE, FL 32609, (352) 505-8760) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL.

THE REAR PASSENGER AIRBAG JUST POT-UP AND THE LIGHT NEVER GO OFF

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AT 60 000 MILES

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS FLASHING SO WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG STAYS OFF EVEN WITH A PERSON IN THE SEAT. THEY STATED IT IS THE OCCUPANCY SENSOR AND WANTED OVER $2,000 TO FIX IT. I HAD THE NISSAN EXTEND WARRANTY WHICH THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID MY 2012 ROGUE WAS NOT PART OF ANY OF THE YEARS FOR THE OCCUPANCY SENSOR THAT WERE RECALLED. IF THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SAME REASON, WHY WOULD THIS NOT BE COVERED? WHY IF THE SENSOR FAILS IT WOULD DEFAULT TO KEEP AIRBAGS FROM WORKING?. NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE TOLD ME IT WAS PASS THE 3 YEARS /36000 SO THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR IT.

MY MOTHER PURCHASED THIS NISSAN ROGUE NEW IN 2012. NOW THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, WE'RE BEING TOLD THAT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS INSIDE THE VEHICLE ARE WORKING. SOUTH AUSTIN NISSAN WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE REFUSES TO ASSIST MY MOTHER, UNLESS SHE PAYS A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY. NISSAN CORPORATION REFUSES TO ASSIST, THEY JUST REFER ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. SO MANY OF THESE AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN RECALLED, THEREFORE WHY IS MY MOTHER HAVING TO PAY A LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY. SAME ISSUES AS THE OTHER YEAR MODELS WHICH HAVE BEEN RECALLED. MY MOTHER IS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WITH NO AIRBAGS. RESPECTFULLY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' PM

THE AIRBAG LIGHT UNEXPECTEDLY CAUGHT ON

2012 NISSAN ROGUE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AN ISSUE WITH PASSENGER SIDE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM. *LD THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE AIRBAG SENSOR WAS NOT A PART INCLUDED IN THE AIRBAG RECALL REPAIR; THEREFORE, NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONSUMER INQUIRED AS TO WHY IT WOULD NOT BE INCLUDED. *JS

THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT IS BLINKING THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE THE MODULE. I HAVE LOOKED IN THE INTERNET AND I HAVE THAT THE MODULE IS A PROBLEM ON NISSAN VEHICLES. THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS BLINKING.

MY SIDE-SEAT PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR - LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT - KEEPS TURNING OFF. THIS SENSOR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR 2013 MODELS. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT ITS NOT UNDER WARRANTY - OR RECALLED FOR 2012 - AND THE COST IS EXTREMELY PROHIBITIVE AND EXORBITANT SINCE IT CANNOT BE FIXED UNLESS YOU PURCHASE A NEW SEAT FOR $2,600.00. THIS SETS UP FOR AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 44,000 MILES AND THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS FILED FOR THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE.

PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR FAILED. VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY BUT I NOTICED THAT OVER 3 MILLION NISSANS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR OCCUPANT SENSOR FAILURE. ATTACHED IS COPY OF NISSAN DEALER DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION.

CODE: B1018 PASSENGER SIDE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ERROR. SEAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. MY FAMILY'S SAFETY WAS AT STAKE. DEALER QUOTED $2962.06 AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THE SEAT IS ON BACK-ORDER. THAT AMOUNT IS RIDICULOUS AND PROHIBITIVE FOR MY FAMILY. WE HAD MY MECHANIC WORK ON IT THE 1ST TIME AND HE RECALIBRATED THE SEAT. HE CAME BACK A SECOND TIME BUT DID NOT CHARGE SINCE IT WAS THE SAME CODE AND IT HAPPENED A DAY LATER. WE OPTED TO FIX THE ISSUE BY REPLACING THE SEAT WITH A PART FROM A SALVAGE YARD AS IT WAS LESS MONEY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY! THE VERY FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM LIGHT WAS DURING A 5 HOUR DRIVE (7/8/18) BUT DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I LOOKED IT UP AFTER THE TRIP. I WAS APPALLED THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT FIX SOMETHING THAT WAS CLEARLY MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THAT I PUT MY FAMILY AT RISK. I ALSO BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS WHY THE SEATS ARE ON BACKORDER. I AM SURE NISSAN IS AWARE. PLEASE SEE PICTURES.

FRONTAL IMPACT CAUSED AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY EXCEPT THE PASSENGER FRONT (NO PASSENGER) AND THE PASSENGER REAR SIDE (PASSENGER PRESENT) . NISSAN CLAIMS NO DEPLOYMENT OF SIDE AIRBAG IS BECAUSE NO DIRECT "T-BONE" IMPACT ON PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE WAS SENSED. NISSAN ALSO CLAIMS THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DID PROPERLY BECAUSE IT SENSED A POTENTIAL ROLLOVER SITUATION. NISSAN WAS MOVING ON CITY STREET AND HIT (T-BONED) A TRUCK PULLING A HEAVY LOADED TRAILER THAT RAN A RED LIGHT. REAR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED!
