My Airbag sensor light is flashing and I took it to Nissan alhambra. They stated that the ECU and OCS sensor is defected and needs to be replaced. However they can attempt to repair it for 1,890 but it may or may not fix the issue and by tampering with it may cause airbags to deploy and cause bigger problem. It's very unfortunate that I took it to the dealer and they were not able to help. According to KBB and Nhtsa my 2015 nissan rogue is one of the models that have been recalled. I am driving a Nissan and uncertain if my airbags will protect me in an emergency.
