What owners wrote
Headrest on 2013 altima hurts the back of my head when I drive the car. If it hurts in normal driving I can't imagine what the head injury is going to be like if I get hit while driving this car. The head rests should be adjustable so that they can be fitted to shorter people. No amount of up down adjusting on the head rest height works to relieve the issue.
The passenger side airbag warning light has been coming on at random times when someone is sitting in the seat. It has been doing this since I bought the car. The light indicates that the airbag is off. The dealer has reset the seat two time and the problem is not solved. I checked online and found that others have been having the same problem. The dealer has indicated that nissan has put a hold on parts for that seat. They obviously know there is a problem.
