PASSENGER AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON WHEN MY WIFE (145LBS) IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAPPENS FROM THE MOMENT THE CAR IS TURNED ON AND PERSISTS THE ENTIRE TIME WHILE DRIVING. WAS TOLD IF THE WARNING LIGHT WAS ON THAT THE AIRBAG WOULD MOST LIKELY NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS OCCURS EACH AND EVER TIME MY WIFE IS IN THE VEHICLE OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST NINE MONTHS. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON MANY NISSAN/INFINITI VEHICLES IN 2013 AND 2014, AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS PRESENT IN THE 2015 MODELS AS WELL. DEALERS RECOMMENDATION WAS TO HAVE MY WIFE SIT IN A DIFFERENT SEAT!?!? TWO PHOTOS ATTACHED - FIRST IS CLOSEUP OF ILLUMINATED PASSENGER AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT. SECOND PHOTO SHOWS A WIDER VIEW SHOWING THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT AND THE PASSENGER APPROPRIATELY SEATED WITH SEAT BELT ON.

HI, I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AT 7/31/2015. IT'S A BRAND NEW Q50 2015 PREMIUM. I MET TWO ISSUES ABOUT IT: 1. IT'S PASSENGER AIR BAG. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT IS ON WITH AN ADULT OCCUPYING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR THE FIRST A FEW MINUTES, SOMETIMES IS 2 MINS, SOMETIMES IS EVEN 5 MINS, BUT IT SUPPOSED TO BE OFF AFTER 7 SECONDS. I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE MY SAFETY IN THAT PERIOD. 2. THE SEAT BELT ISSUE. ONCE I WAS SITTING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT, I DIDN'T BUCKLE UP YET, BUT THE SEAT BELT STATUS LIGHTS WAS NOT ILLUMINATED. YESTERDAY, MY BOYFRIEND DROPPED ME OFF, AFTER I LEFT THE PASSENGER SEAT AND TOOK OFF MY CAR, HE SAW THE SEAT BELT STATUS LIGHT WAS ON. I TRIED TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE DEALER AND CUSTOMER SERVICE, BUT IT SEEMS THEY CAN'T HELP ME AT ALL. THEY JUST TOLD ME THERE'S NO CODE SHOWS ANY ISSUES NEED TO BE FIXED. I REALLY WANT TO JUST RETURN THE CAR.......UPDATED 12/10/15 *BF *CN
