I was hit from behind while completely stopped to make a left hand turn on a city street. The car that hit me, a 2006 nissan altima, was travelling, i believe, between 45-50 mph. Both vehicles were totaled. The airbag in my 2012 nissan frontier did not deploy. I don't believe that is normal, but nissan will not comment. Within a week of the accident, i received a recall notification from nissan regarding the airbag…

On the weekend september 17 2016 a red air bag light on my dashboard was and is blinking intermittent. I called three nissan dealers and was informed that it is most likely the ocs sensor. Upon asking about the recall on nissan ocs sensor i was told that the frontier was not on the recall list.

Side curtain airbags deployed for no reason while driving 5-10 mph on flat road. Almost knocked me out and left me confused for awhile, and caused my ears to ring all day. Nissan north america sent some sort of rep to local dealer to download data from the truck to determine what happened. They then told me that "the conditions were not met" for airbags to have deployed. They replaced the airbag system and returned…

Side curtain airbags wrongfully deployed while driving at about 5-10 mph, with no crash, and on a flat road. Creating an extremely dangerous situation for myself and others on the road around me. This truck has faulty programming that controls these airbags. They state that, instead of the airbags deploying in a crash, they are programmed to "anticipate" a crash and then deploy. Nissan north america sent an engineer…

Myself and one passenger were off-roading in my 2012 frontier pro-4x going over a bumpy surface and without warning the side airbags went off! Luckily no one was injured, but we both got quite a scare due to the noise and lack of visibility. There is no damage to the front end nor were we at any degree of angle. Yes it was bumpy but when you pay for a vehicle that states clearly off road on the side you expect it…
