I scheduled an appointment at tony Nissan in waipio, hawaii, oahu to fix the front passenger air bag inflator recall per the notice I was mailed. (NHTSA recall 13v-136). I was informed when I made the appointment and per the recall notice I was mailed that the repair would take less than one day. Tony Nissan informed me that recall repairs were done in the mornings only m-f, and my car would be ready for pick-up in the afternoon. When I arrived at tony Nissan, after having taken off work to do so, I was informed that the recall takes two (2) days to repair and I would have to bring my car back during another weekday, hence take off another day of work. I was also told I needed 4 new tires ($810) and a new battery ($172). I never requested those repairs and was pressured by the tony Nissan representative to make an immediate decision as they did not have my tires on-site and would have to order them. A red flag immediately went off, I told them I wanted to return and pick my car up and asked them when they would be done "looking at my airbag" to see if I needed the recall repair. I was told they had no idea and I would have to wait until they called me. This was after I was told by a rep when the service appointment was made that recall repairs were only done in the mornings and my car would be ready no later than early afternoon. I cancelled the appointment. My recall repair has yet to be repaired. I lost a day of work for nothing, and apparently will need to lose 2 more work days in order to have the repair completed. I am going to try to arrange the appointment at the only other Nissan dealership on the island and hope they will be professional.
