NHTSA Complaint #10702043 — 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA

WHILE DRIVING ALONE ON 03/12/2015 NOTICED THE AIRBAG AUXILIARY LIGHT COME ON IN MY NEW 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE ALTIMA WAS SERVICED FOR THIS ON 03/18/2015 AND THE LIGHT WAS RESET WITH THE TECHNICIAN STATING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR WAS UNDER RECALL. THEN, WHILE DRIVING ON 03/22/2015 THE AIRBAG AUXILIARY LIGHT CAME ON ONCE AGAIN, ALSO WHEN I WAS THE ONLY OCCUPANT IN THE VEHICLE. THE ALTIMA WAS SERVICED AGAIN FOR THIS ISSUE ON 03/25/2015 WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED OBJECTS LEFT ON THE PASSENGER SEAT (LAPTOP BAGS, ETC.) CAN CAUSE THE SENSOR TO GO OFF AND THAT IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE. THEY RECOMMENDED TO NOT PUT ANYTHING ONTO THE PASSENGER SEAT ASIDE FROM AN ADULT PERSON. ALTHOUGH I HAVE PLACED A BAG ONTO THE PASSENGER SEAT A COUPLE OF TIMES WHILE DRIVING, THE AIRBAG AUXILIARY LIGHT NEVER CAME ON WHILE ANYTHING OR ANYONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THEN AGAIN TODAY, 03/26/2015, THE AIRBAG AUXILIARY LIGHT CAME BACK ON IN MY 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH NOTHING/NO ONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. *TR
