The Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) communicates fast, forceful decelerations to your car's computer system. The Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) is an important piece of your collision safety system and works to offer some protection to you and your passengers if you experience a front-end collision. In most Nissans, the Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) can be spotted toward the front of your vehicle below the air duct intake or behind your front fender.
The Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front), also known as the front crash sensor or inertia sensor, senses events of frontal impact and communicates data to the air bag control unit, which then is charged with deploying your Nissan’s airbags. In the event of a collision, both your air bags and seatbelt work together to reduce fatalities or serious injury by countering sudden forward motion. In other words, your air bag system works to reduce injury to the most important cargo things in your car: you and your loved ones!
If you have a front impact collision or accident (or if your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) is warped, cracked, or broken) swap out your Air Bag Impact Sensor (Front) with urgency.
