36 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 10/25/2017

My air conditioner went out after 5 years of having the car. I had to pay over $1600. 00 to have it fixed. My trunk stopped opening this year and could not be fixed. Now, there is an air bag problem with no replacement parts available yet. The dealer wants a $50 dollar deposit and for me to bring my insurance records to get a loaner. I was told to have someone with me for they have no room to store my car. I would need a person to ride with me so that the car can be stored in my driveway.

Failure Date: 09/25/2017

Takata recall received recall letter which said parts would be available spring 2018 and to see our local Nissan dealer if we needed loaner vehicle. Went to somersworth Nissan and the service manager said he had no loaner vehicles available. He told us if there was a problem the airbag malfunction light would be on. It didn't say that in the recall letter. He said the only thing he could do for us would be t leave our car there and when he got a chance they would look at it to see if it would be dangerous to drive. I asked him if they would look at it today and e said no they didn't have time. We have to go to work tomorrow so we'll be driving the recalled car because even though we did everything we were told to do in the recall letter we couldn't get any help. I've tried contacting Nissan north America to ask them if the car is safe to drive and have been on hold for over two hours. No one is answering the phone there.

45 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/22/2017

To whom it may concern: I recently called my nearest Nissan dealer and asked the representative if I am able to get a loaner car because I no longer feel safe driving after receiving a safety recall letter in the mail. He responds by saying yes just come on in and fill out the paper work for it. Shortly after hanging up I head to the dealer, I get there and let the service representative know why I'm there. Soon after he scheduled me to come in when I have my insurance transferred over to the loaner vehicle. Come to find out that I needed full coverage transferred to the loaner vehicle which I don't have with my current insurance. However, I still have insurance. I recall the guy saying to me that once I get the loaner vehicle, I can no longer drive my Nissan Versa 2010 that has been recently recalled. Not only are you guys risking my life but also now my insurance isn't good enough. For one, its on Nissan's fault that my current isn't safe for me to drive and now I have to pay for Nissan's mistake. When with my current vehicle my current insurance is perfect should not have to suffer or pay out of pocket any money at all. This is Nissan's problem and they need to fix it because if I do get into my car and lets say I get I get into a car accident I will sue. My safety and my money is something I take very seriously so I need this issue to be resolved as soon as possible.

51 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/15/2017

Takata recall. I received my first notice NHTSA recall 16v349 early in 2017. It was a preliminary letter to advise of the problem with the defective airbags and Nissan was waiting for parts to fix the vehicles. Then I got a second letter and it instructed me to call my local Nissan dealer and have the car serviced. I took my car in today, 8/15/17 and after waiting for two hours, was told they would not service just the passenger airbag and that I have to wait until 2018 when they get the other part. Knowing the danger here, I want to have the passenger airbag fixed immediately! if something tragic were to happen, Nissan would be responsible and liable since you put me on notice and then don't correct the problem. I would like to be contacted immediately.

52 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2017

Takata recall: I've been trying to get a loaner vehicle and none of the Nissan dealerships in central florida or even in south florida have rentals. I escalated my case to the consumers affairs dpt at Nissan corp and they have not helped at all. They can't offer any loaners, no rentals. They are only offering to "review" any receipts I may have for rentals, but they will not be guaranteed to be reimbursed. Dealerships do not know what is going on. Some employees said parts will be here in weeks, but know I know parts will not arrive until spring 2018. I am moving and they won't even pay for my car to be transported from central florida to south florida. Nissan consumer's affair dpt. Said they won't cover those costs. They are offering no help to have safe cars on the road, much less to protect drivers lives. Nissan corp. , responded "they can't dictate what dealerships can or not do because they are independently owned" when I asked why they are not collaborating with dealerships to provide more rentals to costumers affected by the takata recalls. I've been dealing with this situation for weeks. I don't know what else to do.
