2014 Nissan Versa Note Airbags Problems

Your airbags failed to deploy during a serious accident, even though your phone's crash detection immediately recognized the impact. This is a critical safety concern, as airbags are designed to protect you during collisions like the one you experienced. The issue likely involves a problem with the airbag system's sensors, wiring, or deployment mechanism that needs professional diagnostic testing.

You were hit on the passenger side at 33 mph, but none of your airbags deployed during the crash. You sustained serious injuries as a result. The vehicle was brand new from the manufacturer when you bought it, with no prior accidents or warning lights, making the airbag failure unexpected and dangerous. This issue likely requires a complete airbag system diagnostic and replacement of failed airbag modules.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Versa Note. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that the seat track rail sensor, Occupant Classification System (OCS), and front passenger's side seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 76,887.

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DISABLED LIGHT INADVERTENTLY REMAINED LIT, & THE RED AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON INDICATING THE CAR'S AIRBAG SYSTEM IS DISABLED COMPLETELY. CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON SECONDARY ROADS WHEN CONDITION OCCURRED.

AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASH BLINKS, NO RECALL IS SHOWING FOR MY VEHICLE VIN. AIRBAG HAS NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED. DISPLAYS REGARDLESS OF SPEED. HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR MONTHS (NEARLY A YEAR AS BEST I CAN RECALL), THIS IS THE FIRST I BECAME AWARE OF A METHOD TO REPORT.

THE LIGHT IN THE DASH GOES ON AND OFF THE AIRBAG COMPONENT IS NEEDED

THIS CAR HAS ONLY 34,000 MILES ON IT AND THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS COME AND IS FLASHING CONSTANTLY ... GIVEN THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR I WAS SHOCKED AND AMAZED THAT I WOULD BE HAVING A PROBLEM. OTHER PROBLEM I'VE HAD IS THAT IT HAS STALED OUT A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR NOT REASON AT ALL WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO THE ROAD.

SIMILAR TO RECALL 16V244000. AIR BAG LIGHT GOING ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH EITHER AN ADULT OR A 12 YEAR OLD GIRL IN THE SEAT. FIRST HAPPENED LAST YEAR, DEALER CHECKED AND RESET THE SENSOR AS A "CUSTOMER COURTESY" SO THERE IS NO PAPER TRAIL. HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE ON VACATION. TOOK IT TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHO AGAIN RESET THE SEAT SENSOR ON 04/19/2017. ISSUE REOCCURRED TODAY, 04/26/2017. SOMETIMES JUST THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON OR OFF. OTHER TIMES, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ON THE DASH WILL ALSO ILLUMINATE. IT CAN OCCUR WHILE STATIONARY, BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, WHILE ON NEIGHBORHOOD ROADS, INTERMEDIATE ROADS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. WE'VE PULLED OVER, SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR, NO CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR. IT HASN'T BEEN INTO THE DEALER YET FOR TODAY'S ISSUE, BUT THE SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME AS THE PREVIOUS TWO TIMES. THREE TIMES IN ONE YEAR WOULD INDICATE A FLAW IN A COMPONENT OR SYSTEM TO ME.

TAKATA RECALL I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS A TAKATA ISSUE, OR IF WE EVEN HAVE A TAKATA AIRBAG SYSTEM IN OUR VEHICLE. HOWEVER, FOR THE LAST THREE MONTHS OUR AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON. WE HAVE BEEN TURNING IT OFF BY DOING THE SYNCHRONIZED KEY TURN METHOD, WHERE IT WOULD WORK FOR A FEW DAYS OR WEEKS AND THEN THE LIGHT WOULD COME BACK ON. WE TOOK IT INTO A DEALER, AND THEY ARE REPLACING THE "AIRBAG MODULE" BECAUSE IT IS DEFECTIVE. WE TOOK IT TO ELHART AUTOMOTIVE IN HOLLAND, MI AND IT IS COMPLETELY COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. HOWEVER, WE WANTED TO SUBMIT THIS AS AN ISSUE BECAUSE THE VIN DOESN'T GET A HIT ON THE TAKATA RECALL, HOWEVER THERE IS OBVIOUSLY AN AIRBAG ISSUE - WHETHER IT IS ISOLATED OR A PART OF THE TAKATA THING, IS ABOVE MY PAYGRADE TO KNOW OR UNDERSTAND. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE IF THE 2014 NISSAN VERSA SHOULD BE ON THE RECALL LIST, THAT IT IS APPROPRIATELY ADDRESSED.

THE DEALER SAYS THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED THAT WAY TO PROTECT CHILDREN, AND THAT THE WEIGHT SENSOR FOR THE LIGHT IS SET AT ABOUT 150 LBS. IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL STANDARDS.
