1998 Infiniti I30 Air bags Problems

“Air bag light flashing, dealership indicated a very common problem for this year and make infiniiti . Well a common problem to me seems like it should be a recall. I was told by dealership that it would over $1000 does this have anything to do with takata inflators that have been recalls on millions of cars but just skipped this year and make? I was told airbag will still deploy, well I was involved in a front end accident, air bag did not deploy! This is a real concern, this needs to be investigated, and recall implemented before someone dies as a result!”

“Air bag light began to flash and continues to do so. I have not investigated the cause of the problem as of yet, but decided to include my experience after reading the entry from early april, 2006.”

“Infiniti I30 air bag red light on dash blinking indicating faulty air bags. This is a dangerous situation because you don't know if the air bags are functional or if it is just the light. Infiniti wants > $600 to replace the airbag which only seems to last a short period of time. …”

“Air bag light flashes repeatedly. Car has just turned over 40000 miles. Dealership (crest) in plano charges $130 just to look at the car and diagnose. New sensor plus installation costs $500. Not worth the cost on a 1998 vehicle. Complained that this should be a safety/nissan issue. Complaints were ignored.”

“While driving home could hear a clicking noise in the wiring car started to lose power and eventually died in the road, jump started it to get to a shop was told it was the alternator, bought new alternator and battery after driving for a while car shorted out again lost power and once again died on the road, jump started car to get home. Car will not hold power keeps shorting out in the wires, alternator is still good as well as battery. You can hear the wiring when it shorts out as it clicks. When I jump start the car it will only stay charged for a few minutes before dying out again. …”
