- Airbag housed within the steering wheel
- Deploys during a moderate to severe collision
- Cannot be repaired and must be replaced
The Steering Wheel Air Bag on your Nissan is one of your passenger vehicle's primary airbags. The Steering Wheel Air Bag sits within a center console in the steering wheel and inflates during an impact or collision to keep the driver from coming in contact with the steering wheel or dashboard.
The Steering Wheel Air Bag on your vehicle is designed to inflate in the case of a severe to moderate collision, usually the equivalent of your vehicle hitting a solid wall at about 10–12 mph. While your Nissan's Steering Wheel Air Bag typically requires an impact or collision to trigger inflation, other instances could trigger the Steering Wheel Air Bag such as driving too quickly over a speed bump, hitting a very deep pothole, or something similar.
If your vehicle's Steering Wheel Air Bag has been deployed, it is unable to be repaired and you must have it replaced. If your Steering Wheel Air Bag needs to be replaced, it is imperative that you replace it with a genuine OEM replacement Steering Wheel Air Bag to ensure it inflates properly in the case of another impact or collision. Installing a non-OEM Steering Wheel Air Bag may cause the airbag to not deploy or to inflate improperly, which could cause serious injury. If you need to replace your Steering Wheel Air Bag, it's best to order a genuine OEM replacement from Nissan Parts to guarantee it will fit your vehicle.
