Side/window Air Bag Problems of Nissan Versa - part 2

Takata recall - pending parts availability for replacement. The driver's side airbag needs to be replaced however Nissan indicates the parts will not be available until first or second quarter of 2018. The manufacturer and the dealer have offered no assistance with a loaner. Nissan indicated we can submit an expense for a rental car, but there is no guarantee it will be reimbursed. This is completely unacceptable.

Awaiting repair of the takata passenger-side airbag, I noticed on the NHTSA website that Nissan had published a fix for the issue. I drove to my local dealership this morning to start the repair process but I'm told that there's no recall on my vehicle (despite proof that I'm in the first of three groups listed for dealers). So I'm more aware of Nissan's documented recall than Nissan itself?.

No incident to date. I received a notification in the mail that my passenger-side airbag is unsafe, but Nissan is still waiting for parts before the defect can be remedied. In the meantime, if an injury or death results from this defect, I will sue the manufacturer.

Takata recall . Have waited 8 months for recall repair with no date in sight. They suggest I either wait for repair which could be years away or to get another car. I cannot afford another car, my car was in excellent shape and I cannot travel with friends in the passenger seat who get car sick. Airbag recall is for passenger side. The resale of this car without a passenger side airbag with an uncompleted recall will be very poor.

Perhaps a person who knew how to fix it with out submitting information to properly secure a non accident history report. Lemon for sure on the air bag issue. I can only say that its good to be alive and see my kids again.

At approximately 4:15pm I was driving east in a 2007 Nissan Versa on sr 18 at a speed of 35 mph. A truck ran a stop sign going south and I collided with his passengers side rear between the extended cab and bed. The collision caused significant damage to the front end of my vehicle. It also caused my transmission to shift or be pushed back because I can not put it into drive. Also, I believe my drive shaft was also damaged because I cannot take my keys out of the ignition. With this significant amount of damage and the speed of travel my complaint is that my vehicles airbags did not deploy.

I purchased a 2007 Nissan Versa in July of 2006; 3 weeks later the passenger side air bag cover came off the dashboard. Took it to the dealer ship and they pushed it back in and order a new one. They said it wasn't a safety concern. They new back took about 2 months to arrive. They replaced it and a bout a week later the air bag cover came off the dash board again. Went back to the dealer ship and they kept it for a 2 days and they told me they had screwed/ bolted down the air bag to the inside of the dash board. Last week I called them because the cover came off once again and they called a field engineer to come take a look at the car, meanwhile they say is safe to drive the car like it is right now. Should I be concerned of the air bag cover exposed like it is? sense this is the 3rd time am really concerned about the safety of my family in case the bag deploys.
