Takata recall in july 2016, i received a letter from nissan advising me of the takata passenger airbag recall. continued exposure to areas with high levels of absolute humidity may cause the front passenger air bag inflator housing to rupture and deploy abnormally. i called in sept - they told me i would get another letter in oct for the fix. i called in nov - they told me i would get another letter in dec for the fix. i called in jan - they told me i would get another letter in mar for the fix. it's now april 2017, still no fix. i live in south florida with high levels of humidity at times. i can't have anyone in my car, and risk driving my car everyday. it's been 10 months. what is their obligation here?

This model should be included in the passenger airbag sensor recall from nissan.the passenger side air bag is not functional, the warning light continually flashes, and the passenger air bag light shows "off" even when my 200 pound son is sitting in the front seat.

Recall opt in

After arriving home while taking groceries out of the car my grandson closed the door i don't believe it was hard (he's 4yrs old) the airbag deployed this is a cause for concern if a four year old can cause an airbag deployment there is obviously a problem with the sensor when i called to report it i find out that im not the only one that this has happened to. *tr

The versa was at a stop light and a drunk driver came in the back and slammed into the car. the versa is totaled and the driver and passenger were both hurt, none of the airbags deployed and there were head, neck, back and broken wrist from this accident. would like to know why the airbags did not deploy. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 nissan versa. the contact stated that while driving approximately 25 mph, another vehicle crashed into the vehicle and the air bags failed to deploy. a police report was filed. the driver and the passenger both sustained injuries and were transported to a hospital for medical assistance. the vehicle was destroyed. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vin was not available. the failure and current mileage was not available.

I was in a car crash; i lost control of the car and it veered of the road, crashed into a guardrail,rolled several times. the car experienced front impact, side impact, rear impact, the roof of the car crush in and not one of the air bags deployed. i have pictures available if needed. i feel this is a huge safety defect and i fear that even though i was fortunate to not be catastrophically injured that someone else may not have the same fortune if this matter is not investigated and resolved. *tr

My airbag light has been on since earlier this year. i have never been in any accidents. it just came on one day and never turned off. its my passenger front seat. i'm worried if and when i actually do get into a accident god forbid it won't deploy. i asked the nissan dealership about it and all they said i could do was to pay $108 to run a test to see what the problem is. i think that's outrageous to have to pay $108 to check to see if there is a potential issue. and then what if its a manufacturer issue am i going to get my money back and car fixed for free?? *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 nissan versa. the contact stated that while driving approximately 20 mph, another vehicle crashed into the driver's side of the vehicle. the contact stated that the driver's side air bag failed to deploy. the contact sustained injuries to the neck, back and sustained a concussion. the front passenger suffered neck and back pains and the rear driver's side passenger suffered neck pains. the contact was transported from the scene to the hospital. a police report was filed at the scene. the vehicle was repaired by an independent collision center however, the air bag warning light remained illuminated. the mechanic discovered that the driver's side air bag had only partially deployed during the crash and the seat had to be replaced in order to correct the defect. the manufacturer was not notified of the defect. the failure mileage was 35,000.

The airbag light continuously blinks and says that it is turned off, i am afraid that if i am in an accident the airbags won"t deploy and my life is in danger. *tr

It has been nearly a year since i was told not to use my passenger seat because the airbag could explode and harm or kill the passenger. it the airbag goes off with just a driver, it could easily cause a crash, harming or killing the driver and others. i live in florida, ultra high humidity, which is the worse condition for the airbags. now i am stuck with a reduced use vehicle, the value is reduced because who wants to buy a car when you can't use parts of it, or any of it,safely. we are constantly told the airbags are not available, but miraculously they are still building cars with airbags. if the car makers or our own government cared, there should be a short deadline when after a certain date, they could no longer sell cars until all dangerous problem vehicles are corrected . this is outrageous that this is allowed to happen.
