The Airbag Light, came on a few months ago. UNKNOWN why or exact date. Air Bag inspection, has outrageous cost, to just diagnose why it's on. I have never had a issue with air bags with this car or another car. This is uncommon. Especially with, No Car Incidents.

MY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY APARTMENT PARKING LOT. I WAS IN THE DRIVER SEAT WHEN MY PASSENGER EXCITED THE VEHICLE AND SLAMMED THE DOOR SHUT. MY CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FROM THE FRONT WINDSHIELD TO BED BACK REAR WINDOW. AS WELL AS MY PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG DEPLOYED. NISSAN WOULD NOT AND COULD NOT FIX THE AIRBAGS BECAUSE THE PART A NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED WERE NOT FOUND. JAPANESE CAR SHOPS WOULD NOT FIX THEM BECAUSE IT WAS A LIABILITY ON THEM AND FEARED THEM DEPLOYING AGAIN. LAWYERS WOULDN'T TAKE THE CASE BECAUSE THE DAMAGE WASN'T WORTH THEIR TIME. AND MY INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD NOT COVER THE DAMAGES BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT OR COLLISON. FOR OVER A YEAR AND HALF I DROVE A TOTALED CAR AROUND WITH MY YOUNG INFANT THAT DID NOT HAVE AN AIR BAG SYSTEM IN IT NOW WHAT DO EVER BECAUSE THE SENSORS BLEW WHEN THIS OBSCURED AND THEN HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET WHICH I DIDN'T HAVE TO GET RID OF THE CAR AND ROLL OVER MY NEGATIVE EQUITY FROM THIS VEHICLE.
