- 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 the main airbags in modern passenger vehicles. The Steering Wheel Air Bag is inside the center of the steering wheel and inflates during an impact or collision to help protect the driver from hitting the steering wheel or dashboard.
Your Steering Wheel Air Bag is made to deploy in the event of a moderate to severe collision, typically the equivalent of the vehicle hitting a solid barrier at around 10–12 miles per hour. Though your vehicle's Steering Wheel Air Bag usually won't inflate outside of a collision or impact, it may inflate from other strenuous circumstances like driving too quickly over a speed bump, hitting a very deep pothole, or something similar.
If your Steering Wheel Air Bag has been deployed, it cannot be repaired and must be replaced. When replacing your Nissan's airbag, 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. A non-OEM Steering Wheel Air Bag has an increased chance of deploying incorrectly, potentially causing the risk of serious injury. If you have 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.
