Consumer Description

I BELIEVE THE RECALL WHICH CAME OUT YESTERDAY FOR THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT SHOULD INCLUDE 2012 ALTIMAS (NOT JUST 2013-2016). I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS OR SO WHERE I MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE A PASSENGER OR ITEMS ON MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND MY AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASH BOARD WILL COME ON AT RANDOM, EVEN WHEN THERE IS A FULL-SIZE ADULT IN THE SEAT. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING.
