I crashed my g35 coupe 2006 JDM a couple of weeks ago, and the driver, passenger air bags poped out, and the seat belt jammed!! Does anyone know what should i do now? what parts should i replace? and what if i do not want to make it work again, i mean i just want to remove the SRS lamp and signs! and is there a special part to replace the crack where the passenger air bag poped?

if anyone has any information whatsoever about this problem please help!!

Usually, you have to replace the parts...why in the world would you not want an airbag??? You'll need to have it serviced by the dealer.

The air bag computer destroys itself in activating air bags and seatbelt pretensioners......................everything must be replaced.

$4,000+ plus body damage and labor.

Check ebay. I see airbags on there all the time. I think you will have to get a new control unit as well.

Follow the directions in the Factory Service Manual.

Something every home mechanic should have.

Be weary. If you get into another accident later, it may affect your safety and perhaps any passenger that's with you. the passenger may even have a case against you for any injuries that otherwise may not have occurred or had been mitigated by an airbag. I'd disclose the issue if you well the car later as well, as a future owner who is not made aware of this could have a case against you as well.

I would hope though that you would have had comprehensive and collision coverage on this car.
