There not that bad to do. Some of the vehicles need a little bit of heat to persuade the bolts. All in all we are getting quite bit of these recalls for the trucks everyday. You got to love road salt.

Are the first-gen frontiers, X's and pathies designed/protected differently to not be affected? I should take a look at the sensor and see if it's in rough shape.

Re: Nissan Airbag Recall - '05-'09 Pathfinder, Xterra & Frontier
I had a problem this spring w/my air bag light staying lit. I called up Nissan USA to see if it was covered under warranty and they told me about the recall. I got that scheduled later in the week and it did solve the airbag light.
