Failure Date: 08/07/2003

Rear-ended another vehicle-I was travelling approximately 45 miles per hour. Neither air bag deployed. My vehicle was totalled. Taken by ambulance to hospital. My vehicle was purchased new-so I know air bags have never been disconnected. What recourse do I have? faulty equipment? manufacturer? who do I contact?.

2 Front Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/16/2001

I an pretty sure at 50 mph hitting another car the airbags should deployed. I don't know enough about them to say that with 100% accuracy, but you would. Nissan will look at the car, but how can I know if they say they shoudl not have deployed if they are saying that to appease me or because it's true.
