“I took my 2010 Nissan Murano le awd to maus Nissan of new port richey, fl because the passenger side airbag warning light was flashing. This well maintained, garage kept vehicle with 74500 miles, 95% of service/maintenance done by Nissan, was in pristine condition, single driver,no accidents, and rarely even a passenger. When I returned 3 days later, I was told the light was still flashing even though they replaced the k88201aaoe sensor side airbag center . I was billed $1840.81 for this repair that did not fix the problem. …”

NHTSA complaint #11115598, filed 2018-08, 63,000 miles“Re: passenger side, airbag warning light. According to the Nissan manual, the passenger side air bag light will alert the passenger when the air bag is not functioning. They advise that when this happens, the auto should immediately be brought to the dealer. I am experiencing this problem with my auto and have notified both Nissan (file 670 4193) and barron Nissan. As of today, both have failed to advise how this can be corrected. I am aware that in 2009, Nissan had a recall (#08v521000) for their passenger side air bag light on the Murano. Updated 03/12/10”
NHTSA complaint #10303566, filed 2010-02, 20 miles“The Dash above the glove compartment has developed a crack from some unknown reason. As this crack appeared the air bag warning signal began flashing. I called Nissan to let them know what had happened with the dash cracking and the airbag warning, and that this was a safety issue that has occurred through no fault of mine. They told me that there was no recall on the car and I was responsible. The dash should not just crack ! And If the airbag system is compromised due to this cracking I feel Nissan should be responsible to make the necessary repairs! …”
