2004 Nissan Titan Air Bags & Restraints Problems

Vehicle was purchased and air bag light was on. Dealership did not disclose any safety issues. When brought to my mechanic found broken wiring in airbag harness and driver's side airbag was not functioning and risk of deployment at any time. Also open recall on driver's side airbag

Airbag warning light is blinking.

The contact owns a 2004 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that after receiving the vehicle from the dealer following a recall repair, the air bag warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23E012000 (Air Bags) and the VIN was included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 21,000.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY AIRBAG/SEATBELT AND IT SINCE HAS GONE OUT AFTER BEING FIXED, BUT THEY SAID THAT IT WAS PAST THE WARRANTY. I HAD THOUGHT THAT AIRBAGS ARE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE PARTS.

ON APRIL 16/2020 @ 330 PM. UNKNOWN,THE CEILING AIRBAGS AND FRONT SEATS AIRBAGS, SUDDENLY EXPLODED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AS A RESULT OF THIS MALFUNCTION, NO BODY WAS ON THE VEHICLE AT THAT TIME. THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE USED, SINCE IT COMPROMISES THE SAFETY OF THE PERSON AND PASSENGERS AND THE DRIVING AND HANDLING OF THIS VEHICLE.*DT*JB
