general problems of the 2008 Nissan Versa - part 1

The contact owned a 2008 Nissan Versa. The contact stated that he had been receiving recall notifications of NHTSA campaign number: 22e066000 (air bags). The contact inquired for the notices to no longer be sent to him because he no longer owns the vehicle. The manufacturer was contacted.

I had not driven the car prior to noticing the air passenger light blinking and continuing to stay on. This is occurring whether someone is in the seat or not. Regards, stephanie.

Traffic stopped suddenly when I hit my brakes they failed to work and the airbags didn’t work either so I ended up hitting my head on the roof of the car when I ran into the truck that suddenly stopped in front of me at speed of about 50mph. I don’t feel good but have no way to get medical attention right now. And was just released from having some head trauma the day before the accident. My car was totaled in the accident so I don’t need additional recall information on it, and no insurance to fix it so now I don’t have any way to get a new car.

I have a recall for airbag, I made appointment with dealership. On August 16 2023, went to the appointment and it took 4h to replace and they gave me a report that its been fixed, they replaced both driver and passenger side airbag, and the airbag light is off (attached picture of report) when I took the car I noticed the airbag light is still on. I went back and told them the issue and they retook the car for inspection. I waited another 1h and they brought me an invoice that there is a cable from airbag to the car, this needs to be replaced and it cost 400$ without tax and without labor. My complain is that they pretended to replace and fix the airbag and they made sure there is no light on. Upon taking the car I noticed it wasn't true. Now they demand money for repair. I believe the dealership is not going to remedy the recall without charging.

The contact owned a 2008 Nissan Versa. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign numbers: 17v449000 (air bags) and 16v349000 (air bags) and requested to be removed from the recall distribution list since he no longer owns the vehicle. The local dealer and the manufacturer were contacted.

About 6 months ago my driver air bag light came on. We told shortly after that their is a recall on that exact thing I have been but still get no. I am worried as it now is flashing instead of steady.

Today was in an accident, car slid and rolled multiple times. The car is completely totaled and I was informed that 100% air bags should have deployed but they did not. Checked for recalls and there is recalls for this vehicle for airbags but my VIN does not match the database.

Takata recall - I cannot get my local dealers to return my call to schedule an appointment to get this issue fixed. I continue to get warning notices from Nissan USA, but local dealers avoid scheduling recalls, always saying they must "confer with the production manager to ensure parts are available", they then promise to call back but never do. I have left phone numbers and email addresses and never heard from either of them. At this point I believe they are stalling on the fixes hoping the older cars simply die and go to the graveyard first.

Takata recall. We have a Nissan Versa 2008 and we received 2 letters about the takata recall. We just moved to new jersey about 3 months ago. My boyfriend daniil went to the Nissan dealership in edison and they refused him a rental car because he is not 21 years old. We are 20. I thought that's not possible, it's a big safety issue, they can't just refuse it because we're not 21. What does age have to do with our safety? the following morning, me and my boyfriend drove to the route 33 Nissan in hamilton, NJ. A lady named mckayla did the paperwork for us, everything was set and then she said "OH wait you're not 21 yet, I can't loan you a car. " she said to call the service assist line to further assist us. So we called the line, and turns out the guy that we were supposed to talk to doesn't work on the weekends. So if the airbags would've went off during the weekend and we died, then what? I called mckayla on Monday and she told us if we could find a company that would rent us the car, Nissan would pay for it. So I called hertz in new york since their legal age to rent a car is 18, and they agreed to rent us a car but Nissan refused to pay for it since it was out of state. If Nissan screwed up with these recalls, they need to take responsibility for their actions and pay the necessary for the inconvenience. We went back to the route 33 Nissan dealership and went to the supervisor's office to speak to him. He said there's nothing he can do for us because we're not 21. Last time I checked, you didn't have to be 21 to own a Nissan. Last time I checked, there was nowhere in the paperwork when buying a Nissan that states: "in the case of a recall, if you're not 21 and over you will be leased a loaner car till we fix your car" so then why is this such an issue? I'm so scared that on our way to work or on our way home the air bags will go off and we will die.

I have had 3 recalls on my Nissan since 2015. It has been 2 years and all 3 are still unresolved. When contacting Nissan, the response is - to await the invitation to the dealership. Driving this vehicle is unsafe and yet I have to risk my well-being every day to get around.

2008 Nissan Versa. Consumer writes in regards to takata airbag safety recall.

Takata recall I received notice about the recall earlier this year I immediately called a dealership. They told me they were out of parts and that they were only getting one or two in a month from Nissan. They told me to call back in June or July because that is when they were expecting regular shipments of the part. I called during this time frame and they still did not have parts available. Now I've received a notice that they won't have any parts until spring of 2018. I'm very concerned and confused. This sounds like a very serious issue that needs to be fixed and every mailing I receive says have it fixed immediately but then I'm told that there isn't a possibility to fix it until sometime in the spring of next year?!?!.

I try to call Nissan lihue about my recall on begin of October not sure the date and they said no part until after spring. I said what I should do and they said I need call my insurance for rental car until the part come. How can I rent the car for so long and just park my car and not move them for a long. So upset but I can not do anything until the part come.

Takata recall my 18 year daughter's car was recalled for a defective air bag. We brought it o the dealer and was told it would take a minimum of 8 months very the defect to be corrected. A "loaner car" was given to us. The problem is my daughter is 18 and the dealer won't let her drive the loaner. She is a full time college student and works 2 jobs. It's imperative that she has a car. If it was only going to take a few weeks or even a month before the problem was corrected we would make the necessary arrangements for her. 8 months or very possibly longer is way to long and is going to put an undue burden to our family. After contacting Nissan corp. They haven't yet given me a solution to this dilemma. I believe that it is their responsibility to correct a wrong caused by their faulty workmanship. I'm asking you as a tax payer to please step in and mediate this problem. I feel Nissan should make me "whole". Myself nor my family should have to deal with this added stress caused by the manufacturer's mistake. I asked them to replace my daughter's car or at the very least buy this car back from me.

I have received two recall notices (16v-349 and 17v-449) about this issue. These notices came many months apart. After receiving each notice, at my next service appointment (priority Nissan, tysons corner, virginia) I inquired, and I was told that parts were not available, but would be available in coming months (e. G. , if I asked in October, I was told the parts would be available in spring). I am beginning to believe that there is no real intention to honor these recalls, and I am feeling somewhat uneasy when driving the car.

We received a notice from Nissan that the airbag on passenger side was very dangerous. Do not let anyone ride on the passenger side. I went to the Nissan dealer and they said that they couldnt get the parts to fix it. It was approximatley 8-9 months later when they finally received the parts. Lt was a real hardship to not carry any passengers in the front seat for that long. The dealer allowed me to take one of their cars for 1 weekend but I couldnt ask for any more. I am not sure about any dates anymore.

Takata recall beginning of October, I went to Nissan workshop and no airbag was available. They should call me back when part will be on site. How long should this take? can takaka produce new parts? how long will it take to have my airbag changed? thank you for support sincerely.
