Consumer Description

ON DEC 12, 107 MY 2012 MAXIMA HAD A SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR REPLACED (DEALER REPLACED AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT FP-NUMBER 98820-9N09C). THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WOULD NOT GO OFF AFTER THE CAR STARTED. THE WARNING LIGHT STAYED ON REGARDLESS IF THE CAR WAS STILL OR MOVING OR WHETHER THERE WAS A PASSENGER IN THE CAR OR NOT. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018 THE EXACT SAME WARNING LIGHT RETURNED WHICH MAKES ME THINK THAT THERE IS A LARGER AIRBAG PROBLEM AT HAND.
