Prior to the accident the airbag light stayed on took it to the dealership and they said it was a error code. On june 4th I had a car accident and the airbag didn't deploy just the airbag light indicator just stayed on. Even until today it is still on cause I can not afford 3 grand to replace the driver side seat which I was told the problem was.

Approximately 3/1/08, my 2005 350z airbag sensor light started flashing. I took it to the dealer on 3/8/10 where I purchased it. Tech verified failure code b1129 rh side module. Replaced with yhehm-cd000 module assy-side. Light was cleared. Then approximately 10/1/10, again that sensor light started to flash. I took it into the same dealership where I purchased my new car on 10/6/10 (7 months later). Tech diagnosed failure code b1134 lh side air bag module failure. Replaced with yheha-cd000. Light was cleared. On nov 20, 2010, I hydroplaned in the rain, hit a guard rail head on, did a 1080 (360 degrees x 3) then hit a tree on the right side. My airbags did not deploy and after the point of impact, that same sensor light started to flash on the dash. I filed a complaint with nissan consumer affairs (1800 nissan1) option 7 then option 3. They had a technician/engineer come out to perform an inspection, after about 4 weeks waiting for a response from them (I called numerous times asking about an update) I received a phone call from my [xxx]stating that the technician found everything in working order. I think that the tech should have found an error code because of the flashing sensor light. There should be a recall on this vehicle. I was wearing my seatbelt and I had only minor injuries but still this should be considered a lemon because its safety related and was "fixed" twice and still did not function when I really needed it to. I did not have my cell until my wife drove out to my location then I recorded the dash with the sensor light flashing. Bystandards called police but only paramedics came out, when called dispatch, they said that they were unable to locate me so therefore no police report was taken. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

I was involved in a near fatal auto accident, which nissan didn't report to the death and injury reports done every quarter per annual year. The accident almost left me paralyzed and I broke over 6 bones in various body part locations due to the car not living up to the "safety" features the maker boasted to have which falsely lead me to buy the car and nearly killed me during an accident, at no fault of mine. The accident was on 1-18-2006, the vehicle a total loss, and occurred in arizona on interstate 51 in phoenix az. I was rear ended, while sitting in traffic pile-up during rush hour traffic. The other driver was estimated to be driving upon impact at 43 MPH. I had my sealtbelt on, which broke my collarbone, and a rib. I also ruptured a silicone breast implant from the force of the car into the steering wheel. The air bags didn't deploy, the leg and feet compartment for the driver area caused one foot I had on the brake, to break the sessamoid bone; the rt knee was thrown into the steering column and I broke my patella and tore my meniscus. Both required surgery, both on opposite legs. I required surgery for the ruptured implant. My neck was fractured and the blow and whiplash from the inadequate head restraint caused vertigo for nearly 3 months. I suffered brain bruising and swelling from hitting my head against the headrest after being thrust forward without an airbag to cushion the jolting of the neck and spine. My thoracic spine was fractured, and remains that way since I've opted not to have surgery. The lumbar spine has a ruptured disk and developed a mass from the impact blunt force trauma that developed from the other drivers car hitting my rear end of the car and the seat thrusting all the contents of the vehicles structure into the seat behind where I sat. I had surgery on the removal of the mass and the lumbar spine repair 3 times. My life was completely destroyed as a result of the false misleading claims the nissan manufacturer and dealer claimed.

Driving home only 1/8 mile from my house, I collided head on with a small pick-up truck. My nissan 350 car spun several times and came to rest. Most of the damage was to the driver side and front end. Front bumper completely gone. Driver side headlight completely gone, passenger side intact. Driver side door can only open a few inches, passenger side-fine. Driver side windshield cracked due to hood being pushed back into car, passenger side-fine. My concern and major complaint is that while my passenger side air bag deployed, the driver side nor the driver side air bags deployed. Had I been traveling at higher speeds or not wearing my seat belt and my air bag did not deploy, I could have seriously been hurt due to this, what I feel to be a, malfunction. To add, I had a 2004 nissan 350z previously in which I had gently hit a curb, front, driver side and my side air bag deployed immediately. For the accident and the significant more damage that just occurred, there is no way that the air bags should not have deployed. I see similar complaints researching this and I am greatly concerned.

I own a 2003 nissan 350z which was purchased in march of this year. The car has approximately 4,000 miles to date. I was recently in an automobile accident where the result of the crash was in the front of my car. I was traveling 30-35 miles an hour when the crash occurred. *ak thankfully I was wearing my seatbelt because my airbag did not deploy while the passenger side did deploy. I feel this is a serious defect in this car. If I was not wearing my seatbelt, I could have been seriously hurt. The results could have been tragic if the accident was at a higher level of severity due to the fact that my(driver's side) airbag did not deploy!
