MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. I WAS PARKED WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THE LIGHT ON. AFTER NOTICING, I THEN PROCEEDED TO MAKE SURE ALL FOUR TIRES HAD CORRECT AMOUNT OF AIR AND TO AND TO TURN OFF CAR AND BACK ON TO RESET. AFTER DOING SO THE LIGHT HAS CONTINUED TO REMAIN ON. ALSO MY PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS BEEN FLASHING ON AND OFF WHILE CARE IS IN START MODE. I AM UNSURE THE CAUSE OF IT. MY VEHICLE ALSO CUT OFF WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT A FEW WEEK AGO. UNSURE IF THE PROBLEMS WERE RELATED.

I WAS ABOUT GOING FOR A MEETING BUT WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, THE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I WASN'T INTO ANY ACCIDENT. I WENT TO A NISSAN DEALER ON 10/16/2012 TO KNOW WHAT CAUSES THE AIR BAG LIGHT TO BE FLASHING WHEN THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT INVOLVED. THEY RAN THEIR TEST AND TOLD ME THAT THE CAUSE OF THE FLASHING WAS {RH SIDE AIR BAG MODULE DEFECTIVE}. THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT AND INTURN GAVE ME A REPAIR QUOTE OF ABOUT $1300 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I TOLD THEM THE PROBLEM WAS FROM NISSAN AND NOT ME. SINCE I DIDN'T HAVE THAT AMOUNT TO REPAIR THE CAR AIR BAG. IN NOVEMBER 2014 I MET A FRIEND THAT DRIVES THE SAME CAR, MODEL, & YEAR WITH THE SAME AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHING. I ASKED IF HE GOT INTO ANY ACCIDENT, HE SAYS NO THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT JUST STARTED FLASHING ON ONE OF THE DAYS WHEN HE WAS GOING TO WORK. ON 11/07/2014, I CALLED NISSAN USA AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP TOLD ME TO FAX THE DIAGNOSTIC AND EVIDENCE THAT AM THE OWNER OF THE CAR TO THEM WITH THE FAX # AND THE CASE # SHE GAVE ME THAT THEY WILL INVESTIGATE AND IF THE PROBLEM IS FROM THEM, THEY WILL FIX THE CAR FOR FREE. I FAXED THE REQUIRED DOCUMENT AND NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN. AFTER WAITING FOR A MONTH, I DECIDED TO CALL AND CHECK THE STATUS OF MY CASE. IT HAPPENS THAT EVERY TIME I CALLED THE REP AND THE SUPERVISOR ARE GIVING ME DIFFERENT AND CONFLICTING INFORMATION. TILL NOW THAT AM WRITING THIS, NISSAN HAVE REFUSED TO FIXED THE PROBLEM THE CAUSE. I WILL APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE CAN LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. THANKS, SEW

MY NISSAN SENTRA 200 AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, YET DEALER REFUSED TO FIX SAFETY ISSUE, ADVISING ME TO SEEK CONTACT NISSAN MANUFACTURER, AT 0745AM. PERSONNEL WAS BLATANTLY UNFRIENDLY AND RUDE, WHILE TAKING DOWN MY KEYS AND PAPER WORK - CUSTOMER DETAILS, I.E., BYPASSED TO THE NEXT CUSTOMER BEHIND ME IN THE QUEUE. PERSONNEL ORDERED ME TO "REMOVE MY STUFF, DEMANDING MY INSURANCE AND CREDIT CARD," BEFORE EVEN LETTING ME KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT, AS THE "OTHER" JUMPED INTO VEHICLE, TRYING TO DRIVE TO REPAIR SHOP. THE LACK OF COURTESY AND RESPECT TO ME AS A CUSTOMER, ACCORDED TO OTHERS, WAS NOT AN ISSUE, I JUST WANTED TO THE SAFETY ISSUE IN THE MANUFACTURED VEHICLE ADDRESSED. SHE ALSO BLATANTLY DECLARED THAT SINCE MY AIRBAG WAS "BLINKING," I WAS "NOT TO EXPECT RECALL LIST SERVICE." WHILE IN THE RESTROOM, INSIDE BUILDING, WAS USHERED TO A SEAT WITHIN 5 MINUTES, AND SAME RUDE PERSONNEL HANDED ME BACK MY KEY, CREDIT CARD AND INSURANCE CARD. THE MANAGER WAS ALSO WITHIN EARSHOT, AND DID ALSO ASK, THAT MY "CUSTOMER NUMBER" BE WRITTEN DOWN, AFTER LETTING THEM KNOW THAT I WAS DISAPPOINTED, SINCE OTHERS BEHIND QUEUE WERE MADE TO WAIT, RECEIVING SERVICE. I HONESTLY INVESTED IN THE VEHICLE, THUS IS SEEKING YOUR HELP, TO HAVE NISSAN FULFILL OBLIGATION TO ME AS A CUSTOMER. *TR
