I was in a wreck and the airbags did not deploy. I was on a main street going 40mph and was in a hit and run but the air bag never deployed. I have pictures but will not allow me to upload.
"takata recall" when the car is started the airbag light starts blinking . I have taken my car to 2 dealerships and they have informed me that it is the clock spring in the car. And that it was unsafe to drive because if I were to get into a wreck or if someone was to hit me and my children the airbags would not deploy . The clock spring in the staring will also controls the passenger side airbag and that will not deploy as well .

Airbag light flashes constantly on dash panel. Came on while driving and will not go out. Has been reset but comes back on after driving within short distance. Car has not been wrecked in front and I am original owner. Concerned for our safety as we are afraid airbag may not deploy in case of an accident. We do not believe safety equipment should fail so quickly. Also see online where many other owners are experienceing same problem. Would like to see a recall to fix this safety issue. Thank you.

Daughter involved in a serious front-end collision. The car was totaled. Her airbags did not deploy. At the time of the collision, she was on a city street. She passed out while driving and hit a guardrail head-on.
Letter received from Nissan regarding possible front air bag passenger sensor malfunction. Our sensor malfunctions inconsistently with the same individual sitting in the seat (weighing 110-115 lbs) while vehicle is in motion; system works properly at times indicating passenger air bag will deploy in an accident, and then at other times notes airbag will not deploy. We're now encountering difficulties with Nissan correcting/fixing the acknowledged (by Nissan) problem due to the inconsistent nature of the issue. Concerned the system won't work correctly upon potential collision and requesting the sensor that is malfunctioning be replaced.
I was in an accident April 7th at 9:30 pm. I was driving down having a problem with keeping my windows from fogging up and had taken my eyes out from the road to look at my defrost knobs to make adjustments. When I looked back up, there was a truck stopped at the intersection which I hit dead on at a speed of 40mph. I believe I had enough time to take my foot off the gas pedal and start to apply my brake before colliding into the rear of the truck. Although I was wearing my seatbelt, it did not lock up , allowing my body to be thrown into the steering wheel & dashboard and thus fracturing my lower back and tibia on left leg. In addition to the laceration on my liver and bleeding ( internal bleeding) around my pelvic bone. My seatbelt restraint did not lock and my airbag did not deploy until after my chest hit steering wheel. These 2 malfunctions could have easily caused much more serious injuries, even death. I have a couple items that demonstrate the force in which chest hit steering column, gayle copenhaver 832. 729. 8789.

Brakes failed to function when attempting to stop while going 35 mph on a dry, straight roadway. The pedal had some tension behind it but didn't feel right, kind of spongy and it went all the way to the floor. Several pumps of the break did not result in significant braking so I spun the steering wheel to the right to try to avoid the car that was stopping, but could not clear it and my car has been totaled and I am in pain. Airbags also failed to deploy, and I'd have thought a 35 mph crash should have been sufficient to trigger the inertia sensor.
