2 Air Bag On-off Switch problem of the 2012 Nissan Versa

Failure Date: 06/12/2012

I was given this car as a rental. I am an extremely safe driver with a perfect driving record. Within 7-8 minutes of driving this vehicle there was a crash! I drove in on the same busy street that the rental car was located and from the stop light the car switched into gear automatically and the brakes would not work. This cause caused me to hit a car from behind and since the brakes weren't working I hydroplaned into the back of another vehicle. Only one airbag was deployed, the one in the horn. . Not all six. I suffered a severe concussion and had to be hospitalized overnight. Luckily, the people in the other vehicles were fine. I am now under the care of a neurologist who is doing tests to help determine why I get frequent migraines and my short term memory is very limited as well as my balance. The Nissan Versa 2012 is not a safe car!.

3 Air Bag On-off Switch problem of the 2007 Nissan Versa

Failure Date: 09/16/2009

I own a 2007 Nissan Versa which has a recalled issue for an air bag/seat belt defect for the passenger side. I contacted Nissan and they are saying my VIN is not included in the recall. My 2007 Versa has the "passenger side air bag off" light on even when someone sits in the seat. With that light on the air bag is not able to deploy nor will the seat belt work. I had the part replaced by a Nissan dealership and not even a week later the same light came back on and remains on. I am being advised to have it fixed another time but do not count on it being fixed as I have already had it switched out one time already.
