I was involved in a car accident with $12,863 worth of damaged to the front of my car. Driver air bag did not go off..I hit the sterring wheel so hard that I fractured a rib and a swollen chest inside and out..about 8 months after I bought it there was a recall on the passenger side air bag but I am thinking that the driver side should be checked as well. I was going thru a green light on a city street and a lady ran the red light coming from the other way. I braked and laid on the horn when I saw her coming out and swerved my car but couldn't avoid her. First it was a no fault but then she was proven to go thru the red light. Lucky I had my seatbelt on but that didn't even stop me from hitting the steering wheel hard!!
On december 10, 2016 may son and I went to supercuts near louis henna blvd and ih35 north around 11:00 am, when I went to pull into a parking spaces, I slowed down from driving about 10 miles an hour, took my foot off of the accelerator, applied the brakes to park and the 2015 nissan rogue I was driving did not slow down, in fact it accelerated and threw vehicle up against a brick and morter pillar. Meanwhile I am still trying to stop the vehicle by braking and vehicle is in park. Vehicle after about 2 minutes stops acceleration and I cannot get vehicle out of park, I kept trying to get vehicle out of park to reverse it off of the curb. Finally after several attempts, I move into reverse to get car off of curb. The whole front end of my vehicle is crashed. There are pieces of my vehicle on the sidewalk in front of asian restaurant. Restaurant employee witnessed the whole thing and he comes out to see if we are okay.I checked to see if my son wichar cleveland is okay. The airbags did not deploy. I contacted elephant insurance. I don't see any fluids so I drive vehicle to service king, very slowly, a few blocks away. I called nissan on monday, they took my info said someone would contact me. Dehenry called next day, said nissan is not liable. I requested they let me trade vehicle for a new one, I don't want to drive that vehicle nor should anyone else drive it. I also asked they pay for car rental, deductibles, towing or any of my expenses. Nissan informed me they could not send an investigator to look at vehicle until january 5, 2017 with no guarantees that nissan would be liable.I researched the vehicle online and this has happened before to someone else yet nissan has not done a recall. I guess they will when someone is killed!
