    Purchased this vehicle from the original owner. Saw that the front passenger air bag "off" indicator light stayed on when the front passenger seat was occupied along with the air bag warning light blinking in the instrument panel (all the time). Upon investigating the issue, i found that the "varistor" in the ocs control unit (occupant classification system) in the front passenger seat was bad. This varsitor is the…

    The driver seat shifts and will not stay in place during operation. The right side of the seat will move more compared to the left side and causes the seat to shift/shimmy around curves, elevate and depress when hitting bumps. *tr

    Driver side seat shifts left and right while turning. Nissan's tsb for this issue does not resolve and they refuse to inspect further after speaking to las vegas regional rep. *tr

    Similar problem as described by other person in this forum. Driver seat will move with turns or sudden stops. Asked the dealer to replace it and they said that it makes not sense as problem will recur. They also asked me to wait for a recall from nissan (waiting now for almost one year). I agree on the fact that this is a safety issue. *tr

    The driver seat in my 2007 nissan altima has moved while i am driving since i bought the car. I have brought this in to be serviced for this problem over 6 times in the last year and they have failed to fix it. They performed nissan tsb ntb08-089 twice already and the seat still moves around when i am driving. This is a major safety issue and it needs to be fixed. I am not the only one having this problem, it is…

    I purchased a new 2007 nissan altima in march 2007 and shortly after the seat started to squirm from side to side in turns. I took it to the dealer and they acknowledged the problem. They told me that they could replace the seat rails, but the problem is in the rails themselves and that the problem would just reoccur. I have taken it back to the dealer, but they still tell me that they have no fix for it. My seat is…
