2010 NISSAN ARMADA

Priority Nissan mazda sold a 2010 Nissan Armada with an incorrect occupant classification system (ocs) electronic control unit (ecu) and refused to repair the safety defect. The incorrect ecu and seat combination may misclassify the front passenger seat occupant and will cause the airbag to malfunction during a crash. If the front passenger seat occupant is misclassified, the air bag may deploy incorrectly in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury. According to priority Nissan mazda of vienna va, the dealership found codes stored B1017 ocs control - needs passenger seat assembly to replace ocs unit. Nissan has previous safety recalls for the same type of issue with all other years and models. I am afraid to drive this vehicle with my children as it is unsafe.
