Your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) communicates sudden, rough decelerations to your vehicle’s onboard computer system. Your Nissan's Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) is an important piece of your collision safety system and could help offer some protection to you and your passengers in the event of a front-end collision. In most Nissan models, your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) can be found at the front of your vehicle under the air duct intake or behind your front fender.
The Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front), also known as the inertia sensor or front crash sensor, perceives frontal impact and transmits data to the air bag control unit, which is responsible for deploying your Nissan’s airbags. In the event of a collision, your air bags work in tandem with your seatbelt to reduce instances of serious injuries by counteracting sudden forward motion. In other words, your air bags work to limit harm to the most important cargo things in your vehicle: your passengers and you!
After an accident or collision (or if your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) is warped, cracked, or broken) swap out your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) with urgency.
Replacement of your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) requires extensive car knowledge and exclusive tools like a code scanner. Depending upon the year and model of your Nissan, you could have to take off many parts in the front of your vehicle, including the front fender, battery, radiator strap, headlights, door trim, or body panels. For this reason, the typical recommendation is that you visit your nearest authorized Nissan service center to have the replacement done by qualified automotive specialists.
Using the wrong replacement may compromise your Nissan's collision safety system. Reference your Nissan owner’s manual for details specific to your Nissan Murano 2003-2007.
If you’d prefer to let a professional handle your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) installation, find a Nissan certified repair and service center.
