The short version

Nissan North America, Inc. reported a problem with the air bags frontal. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

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.

WHY IT MATTERS

If the OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger airbag would be deactivated. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the passenger.

WHAT TO DO

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the OCS software, free of charge.
