The Steering Wheel Issue of the Nissan Qashqai J11 2017-2020

Model: Nissan Qashqai J11 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Steering wheel

This video shows a problem concerning the steering wheel airbag of Nissan Qashqai models from 2017 to 2020: when removing the airbag from the steering wheel, there is a concrete risk of breaking a plastic tab that secures the airbag. If this tab breaks, it is not enough to replace the airbag; the entire steering wheel system must be changed. The repair cost is around 50,000 Turkish Lira, which is approximately £2,000. Anyone considering buying a Qashqai from this period should have a professional inspection to ensure that the steering wheel airbag has no issues; this is a design flaw that can turn a simple maintenance task into a significant expense.
