## United States (NHTSA), as of 2026-10-19

- [17V253000](/recalls/nhtsa/17V253000.md), 2017-04-13: AIR BAGS. Nissan North America, Inc. \(Nissan\) is recalling certain 2015\-2017 LEAF and 2014, 2016 and 2017 Sentra vehicles.  Due to a manufacturing error within the air bag inflators, the passenger frontal air bag may not properly deploy in the event of a crash. Built 2014\-09\-21 to 2014\-11\-08.
- [16V244000](/recalls/nhtsa/16V244000.md), 2016-04-26: AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION. Nissan North America, Inc. \(Nissan\) is recalling certain model year 2016\-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013\-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF, Sentra, and Pathfinder, 2014\-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60, QX60 Hybrid, and Q50 Hybrid, 2014\-2017 Nissan Rogue and Infiniti Q50, 2015\-2016 Nissan Murano, Murano Hybrid, and Chevrolet City Express, 2014\-2015 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid, and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles.  In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System \(OCS\) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied.  As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash. Built 2012\-06\-04 to 2016\-04\-09.
- [16V242000](/recalls/nhtsa/16V242000.md), 2016-04-26: AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION. Nissan North America, Inc. \(Nissan\) is recalling certain model year 2013\-2016 Sentra vehicles manufactured June 4, 2012, to April 9, 2016.  The front passenger seat belt bracket may become deformed if it is used to secure a Child Restraint System \(CRS\).  The deformed seat bracket may cause the Occupant Classification System \(OCS\) to incorrectly classify the installed CRS, resulting in the front passenger air bag to not be turned off as designed when a CRS is in the seat. Built 2012\-06\-04 to 2016\-04\-09.
- [15V681000](/recalls/nhtsa/15V681000.md), 2015-10-20: AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION; AIR BAGS:FRONTAL. Nissan North America, Inc. \(Nissan\) is recalling certain model year 2013\-2015 Altima and Pathfinder vehicles, 2013\-2014 Nissan Sentra vehicles, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles, 2014\-2015 Infiniti QX60 vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles.  The affected vehicles received an incorrect occupant classification system \(OCS\) control unit during a repair.  These OCS control units may incorrectly classify the front passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult. Built 2012\-09\-01 to 2014\-07\-08.
- [14V138000](/recalls/nhtsa/14V138000.md), 2014-03-25: AIR BAGS:FRONTAL; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE.

In the affected vehicles, the occupant classification system \(OCS\) software may incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult. Built 2012\-08\-27 to 2014\-02\-18.

- [2017385](/recalls/tc/2017385.md), 2017-08-04: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the passenger's frontal airbag may not deploy correctly due to an issue in manufacturing. As a result of long\-term storage, there could be insufficient compression strength of the coolant within the inflator housing of the passenger's frontal airbag, which may cause the airbag to fail to deploy properly in the event of a crash \(where deployment is warranted\), which could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger's frontal airbag inflator. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2017\-215.
- [2017215](/recalls/tc/2017215.md), 2017-04-18: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the passenger's frontal airbag may not deploy correctly due to an issue in manufacturing. As a result of long\-term storage, there could be insufficient compression strength of the coolant within the inflator housing of the passenger's frontal airbag, which may cause the airbag to fail to deploy properly in the event of a crash \(where deployment is warranted\), which could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger's frontal airbag inflator.
- [2016179](/recalls/tc/2016179.md), 2016-04-25: Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles, a defect in the occupant classification system could allow an adult sitting in the front passenger seat to be classified as a child or an “empty seat”. This would suppress the airbag, which could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Correction: For affected Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue and Sentra vehicles, dealers will reprogram the airbag control unit and the occupant classification system control unit. For affected Leaf, NV200, Pathfinder, Q50 and JX35/QX60 vehicles, dealers will replace the occupant classification system electronic control unit.
- [2016178](/recalls/tc/2016178.md), 2016-04-25: Seats And Restraints. On certain vehicles, installing a child seat in the front passenger seat could deform the seat belt bracket. This could cause the occupant classification system \(OCS\) sensor to fail to detect the installed child seat. In the event of a crash, the airbag would not be suppressed which would increase the risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will reinforce the seatbelt bracket and update both the air bag control unit and electronic control unit.
- [2015491](/recalls/tc/2015491.md), 2015-10-20: Airbag. Certain vehicles serviced as part of recall 2014\-093 or which had the Occupant Classification System \(OCS\) module replaced during servicing may have been fitted with an incorrect replacement OCS module. An incorrect OCS module would impair the effectiveness of the OCS, potentially failing to properly classify an adult passenger seated in the front passenger seat. This could increase the risk of injury to the occupant in a crash. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the OCS module.
- [2014093](/recalls/tc/2014093.md), 2014-03-25: Airbag. On certain vehicles, the front passenger seat occupant classification system software may incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult. If this occurs, the passenger airbag would be deactivated without the illumination of the airbag warning lamp. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash \(where deployment is warranted\) could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the occupant classification system.
