I work in car leasing and actually think the information on this website's database is wrong, just flagging this issue. This vin and many others for other altimas says no remedy but when you go to the dealership they are able to solve recall r1609. Other altima vins with this same recall also have a different status saying there is a solution. *tr

My 2014 nissan altima drivers side airbag light has come on for the fourth time since new.

I took it in a few weeks ago because the light was on again, they said it was a loose connection under the seat caused by a box of kleenex, which i think is not true. Last…

The passenger airbag sensor is not properly sensing the weight. The "airbag off" light is on when an adult over the weight limit sits in the seat. Plus, a child under the weight limit, the "airbag off" light is off. In short, the passenger airbag sensor is not properly detecting the correct weight of the passenger.
