It’s official. Nissan announced last Tuesday that it will be recalling almost 135,000 coupes and sedan units. The company will be doing damage control over glitches in the wiring harness which connects the ODS (occupant detection sensor) control unit and the BTS (belt tension sensor).
Both are located under the front passenger seat, and the glitch may prevent the deployment of the passenger airbag in case of a car crash.
The models which were affected by the glitch are G35 Coupes (manufactured between April 1, 2004 and May 30, 2007) and G35 sedans (manufactured between March 29, 2004 and August 25, 2006). The Japanese car manufacturer already made the initiative to recall its G35 units, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that Nissan still needs to provide them with the official notification schedule.
