AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE
11/27/07 PROBLEM: AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHING. (TWO OCCURRENCES) DIAGNOSTIC CONDUCTED 11/25/07 AND 11/27/07. AT THE FIRST SERVICE DEALER COULD NOT DETERMINE DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND I WAS ASKED TO BRING VEHICLE IN 11/27/07 A COMPLETE DIAGNOSTIC WAS CONDUCTED. ACCORDING TO DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTIC CODES THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WITH COSTS EXCEEDING $1000. THE SEATS, THUS FAR APPEAR TO BE IN TACK. WHAT DOES SEAT CUSHION HAVE TO DO WITH AIRBAG OR ITS SENSOR? THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN YEARS 2 Ѕ YEARS NEW WITH APPROX. 51,000 MILES. CONCERNS: VEHICLE SAFETY AND PROPER DEPLOYMENT OF AIRBAGS. I WAS INFORMED BY DEALERSHIP THAT THIS IS COMMON IN MURANOS AND PATHFINDERS. IF SO, WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL W/O COSTS TO CONSUMER. AFTER REVIEWING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS SUBMITTED BY OTHER CONSUMERS, IT APPEARS TO ME THAT SAFETY CONCERNS EXISTS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE RISKS OF INJURY TO A PASSENGER. IN ADDITION, THE ACTUAL CAUSE AND FINAL REPAIR RESOLUTION REMAINS UNKNOWN AND UNRESOLVED. (SEE OTHER CONSUMER COMPLAINT NO. 10208537) IT IS NOT A COINCIDENCE THAT MY VEHICLE'S AIRBAG INDICATOR FAILED AROUND THE SAME MILEAGE AS THE OTHER. WHO IS TO SAY THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT MALFUNCTION IN CASE OF ACCIDENT? (PLEASE ALSO SEE CONSUMER COMPLAINT NO 10199625 & C.C. NO. 10196794) *TR
