1 Turn Signal problem of the 2001 Nissan Maxima

Failure Date: 06/22/2016

I was traveling on south bowens mill rd. In douglas GA when a vehicle that have on their turn signal involved me hitting the back of her vehicle. There wasn't much damage to her vehicle but my vehicle was damaged severely. The airbag should've came out but didn't. In 2015, I received a notice from Nissan stating that there was a recall on Nissan airbags, so I immediately took my car to the Nissan dealership in tifton, GA. I'm not even sure if they replace the defective airbag or not because the dealership was about to close when they began to work on my vehicle. My appointment was at 9am and I didn't get out of their to closing. The employees was ready to go about the time they began to work on my vehicle. However, looking at the damages to my vehicle, the airbag should've came out but it didn't. I will be submitting photos of damages.

2 Turn Signal problem of the 2011 Nissan Maxima

Failure Date: 04/10/2016

The front turn signal lamp on the Maxima is 2" below the low beam headlight. 31/2" center to center. When this vehicle is oncoming with the headlamps on, the turn signal is virtually blotted out by the glare of the headlamp. This is a problem on many makes and models of vehicles. This condition is even worse for one that wears eyeglasses and/or has mild cataracts as this causes the oncoming headlights to appear to flare. The front turn signal lamp should never be closer than 6" to the headlamps. Conditions: vehicle stopped and ready to turn. Worse at night. City street or country road.
