Takata recall: both my previous nissan altima 2007 and my current altima has sporadic signals of the airbag being off when driving down the road. Since it is inconsistent i have been unable to take to dealer to pinpoint this issue. I feel that it may be a safety issue. I am the passenger and heavy enough to activate airbag. This form does not allow me to show how many times or dates this happens.
