“Takata airbag issue. My 2008 Infiniti FX35 was recalled due to the takata recall passanger side airbag. After it was repaired by an Infiniti dealership my airbag light came on the dash within the first day. Dealership now claims the drivers airbag all of the sudden needs to be replaced at a cost of $1900. Recall replacement is causing this, no way it is all of the sudden needing tom be replaced.”
NHTSA complaint #10953940, filed 2017-02, 94,000 miles“Not sure if related to takata airbag, but the passenger airbag sensor went out and only certain vins were recalled. When I started my car, the airbag sensor light illuminated and remained illuminated. When I spoke to the service guy, he said as long as it's not flashing, you can drive it. So I turned car on again to go to work, and the airbag sensor light began to flash. Service guy said bring it in, it's more urgent now. They ran the computer scan and noted the passenger airbag sensor has failed. Close to $5000 to replace entire seat with sensor. …”
NHTSA complaint #11173365, filed 2019-01, 163,000 miles“Problem appears closer to recent recall of hundai sonata cars w/ steering wheel bags. While traveling down busy 4-lane highway, sensor light came on associated with seat and airbags. Roswell Infiniti , roswell, ga had to completely tear apart steering wheel column, work on airbags, sensors, and other items. I had just purchased vehicle from another dealer, but has only a little over 105,000 miles. Did not expect almost $4,000 in repairs due to this problem. I think it is a problem associated with other japanese models and should have a recall. Please investigate as soon as possible. …”
NHTSA complaint #11081902, filed 2018-03, 109,000 miles“In feb 2016 when I saw the recall on the news for airbags, I called to see if the Infiniti FX35 2008 was recalled. I was told no recall the truck is fine. Now in july 2016 I receive a letter for a passenger airbag recall. Do you know if the driver airbag is being investigated? I'm curious to know, because my mom was killed in an auto accident, while she was driving the truck in dec. 2015. She had injury to her face, neck and more. What makes the passenger airbag inflate? Is it normal for the driver seat to come off the track? Thank you for you attention to this matter. Updated 12/04/17”
NHTSA complaint #10895090, filed 2016-08, 148,000 miles“I took my car in on oct 5th for the takata airbag recall. Soon after the Infiniti technician completed the work my airbag light came on. I contacted Infiniti and took my car back and they will not repair my car. They are charging me $2388 to repair it because they said the two airbags are not connected. I explained that the airbag light had never been on until the technician did the work and now Infiniti is refusing to take responsibility for their actions.”
