What owners wrote
The SRS light flashed on then off while driving, driver took vehicle to dealer. The driver noticed on another occasion that problem repeatedly happened. The mechanic determined that the air bag sensor needed to be replaced.
Air bag light flashing, dealership indicated "a very common problem" for this year and make infiniiti . Well a common problem to me seems like it should be a recall. I was told by dealership that it would over $1000 does this have anything to do with takata inflators that have been recalls on millions of cars but just skipped this year and make? I was told airbag will still deploy, well I was involved in a front end accident, air bag did not deploy!
