Got into accident with my 2006 Nissan Xterra off road. Was driving at 8:05 pm at 30 mph down ponce DE leon passing 207 in st. Augustine florida. A 2016 Nissan pathfinder was stopped while traffic was moving I tried to avoid the Nissan, no time to brake, it clipped the backside of the pathfinder with my Xterra. My driver side and passenger airbag went off. (exploded?) it broke my passengers arm and unknown object in passengers eye. Airbags blown out destroyed my dash air bag is ripped like it had a baby. Both my passenger and driver side seat belts both released the seat belts they didn't lock during the accident usually they lock and won't release my driver side is not locking in place as the passenger. Days after the accident my passenger had her (2003 Nissan sentra)recalled for the takata recall , inspected was positive for the recall and replaced it was describing the situation for this accident I was told by a lawyer to report this to NHTSA. Suspected takata airbags. I pulled the VIN no recall I bought this truck maybe a month prior. I'm completely unknown of this situation. Insurance company wanted to total the Xterra I took it home I still have the vehicle inside with airbags both insurance companies are progressive the driver v02 had no license the officer was too busy to proceed with the investigation of how the accident happened. The damages was not bad to break a bone with an airbag at the speed and impact this car accident had.
Check engine light came on, took my truck to the dealer to have a diagnostic check, was told by the service staff that the transmission was contaminated with coolant that had leaked from the radiator. Upon further research, I discovered that other Nissan makes, models between 2004-2006 had a design flaw which caused the problem in which I now face. . I contacted Nissan for some financial assistance on the repair on my transmission, since it appears that the issues related to my problem are from a flaw in the designs of the vehicle. I was told that because my mileage was over a 100,000 miles and past the warranty, that there wasn't anything that could be done as far assisting me with the repairs. I will never buy another Nissan product again. . . . It should be also noted that there was a class action lawsuit again Nissan regarding the very problem that I'm faced dealing with. . .
Takata recall ive had problems with tranmisson for a about 3 yrs . . I called Nissan recall and they have always told me its not in the USA. Went to trans shop and they have had it for 4 weeks not unable to fix it. . . It would start when I would stop at lights or stop signs and not go would have to shut off and restart then pull over for not getting hit. .
