Well since my fender was ripped off it was easy to see the sensor :lol:

Adjuster just totaled my car. $3k in exterior damage and $21k for airbags/headliner and seats.

That sucks. They should design the car so an airbag deployment doesn't completely ruin the car to getting totaled.

As it is now, it's like the brave soldier who jumps on a grenade thrown into a foxhole to absorb the blast, killing himself so others around could survive.
But still, having the airbags deploy at low speeds is aggravating giving the outcome of deployment in terms of damage.

hmm... I might have to keep my eye out for a salvage kizashi that had this problem. Might not be too bad to fix if you just pulled some of the air bags. I don't have kids or anything so safety isn't as high on my list as some people. I survived my death trap of an 89 sentra for quite a few years.

Sorry to hear about your car.
