While driving on a curvy, gravel road I had just come out of a left sided curve. The vehicle started spinning counter clockwise towards a ditch. I immediately started turning my wheel clockwise to compensate and regain control. My left rear tire lost air which I believe was the reason I could not regain control. I ended up in a ditch on the left side of the road. The problem in hand was that the driver's airbag did not deploy, however the passenger side did deploy. Had the airbag deployed as it should have, I would have not been taken to the hospital via ambulance. Due to the malfunction of the airbag my daughter hit the steering wheel where by cracking her 1st and 2nd rib, received a head concussion, thoracic back paid, cervical strain-whiplash, chest wall contusion,contusions in both knees, intra-abdominal hematoma's and has suffered greatly. I have notified Nissan and they are unwilling to assume responsibility for a faulty product. Is there anything you can do to assist? sincerely,.
On Friday August 1, 2008 I was involved in a three-car motor vehicle accident. My car was struck from behind by another vehicle while I was in the process of stopping at a red light. My vehicle subsequently struck a stopped small truck that was ahead of me. There was front head-on collision as well as rear vehicle damage. My vehicle was a 2003 Nissan Murano. The only individual in my Murano was myself. The unoccupied passenger side airbag deployed but my driver-side airbag did not deploy. This failure for airbag deployment is what I am reporting now. The vehicle is unusable and has been taken to a tow yard.
While traveling 35 mph vehicle wa sinvolved in a crash, and air bags did not deploy.
