- 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 is housed in the center console of the steering wheel and inflates during an impact or collision to help protect the driver from coming in contact with the dashboard or the steering wheel.
The Steering Wheel Air Bag on your vehicle is designed to inflate in a moderate to severe collision, typically about the same as driving about 10–12 mph into a solid barrier. While the Steering Wheel Air Bag in your Nissan 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 Steering Wheel Air Bag has been deployed, you must replace it, as it cannot be repaired. 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 functions as it should and inflates in the event of another collision or impact. Installing a non-OEM Steering Wheel Air Bag may cause the airbag to not deploy or to inflate improperly, causing risk of serious injury. If you need to replace your Steering Wheel Air Bag, make sure it's guaranteed to fit your vehicle by ordering your OEM replacement airbag from Nissan Parts.
