What owners say
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The airbag system in my 2017 Nissan Rogue malfunctioned. The airbag warning light turned on, indicating a potential failure in the system. The vehicle and its components are available for inspection if needed. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The malfunctioning airbag system compromises the vehicle's ability to deploy airbags in the event of a collision, putting my safety and the safety of others at risk. If the airbags do not deploy correctly during an accident, it could lead to severe injuries or even fatalities. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, the problem has been confirmed by a Nissan dealership. They informed me that the airbag system malfunctioned due to a defect in the sensor, and they recommended a repair costing approximately $4,000. However, they stated that the repair would not be covered under warranty. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? The vehicle has been inspected by a Nissan dealership, which confirmed the issue with the airbag system. The vehicle has not been inspected by police, insurance representatives, or other independent service centers. Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes, the airbag warning light turned on, indicating a malfunction in the system. This warning light first appeared approximately a week ago.

I was driving along East Passaic Bloomfield, New Jersey it’s a double Saul line two-lane roadway with four major exits into it Garden State Parkway etc. the person in front of me turn left over the Saul lines into a driveway, then put the car in reverse to back out of the driveway, straight across the double Saul lines to his house on the same side as he was going south right in front of my car this roadway is like a highway. The car went into a skid which it shouldn’t have. right in front of my car this roadway is like a highway. The car went into a skid which it should know with the antilock brake system, and upon contact the airbags did that a ploy deploy And upon contact airbags, didn’t deploy my wife, and I have to – my knees hit the dashboard. The person that caused the accident his company with State Farm and they put me at 15% liability which is totally wrong. I was sick at the time when they were going over the money they took thousands of dollars from me now my car is destroyed. They paid me to fix it, which doesn’t even cover the cost of the repairs. The car would have not gotten into the accident if it didn’t skid I would have been able to stop. I need Nissan to do something either replace this car or repair it because the accident should not have occurred. Airbags did not deploy and we got hurt. I’m not looking a lawsuit nothing like that. I want my car just fixed or replaced and the car does have recalls for electrical and other problems

Come out anywhere from 8 miles an hour on I was a mechanic for a long time my wife banged up her shoulder and her back and I’m disabled as it is and I hurt my legs really bad, banging against the dashboard, the driver from the other car insurance paid us some money but it was even close to what it be for the repairs and I do not let them know about the airbags or the antilock brake system. This was very bad if we were at high speed we would have been killed. I did not document this anywhere. I did not put it on social media. I’m keeping it to myself for now , I have films in pictures of how the action occurred and the gentleman is still backing into the driveway. State farm blame me 15%. They scammed me I’ve been very sick I was in essential worker under the governor of New Jersey or Hackensack Meridian, Genewiz labs and Terry’s pharmacy that I made sure people got their medication‘s where others would not deliver or bring to them. I actually became very ill and now I walk with a walker . I’m a disabled man with a wrecked car. I have a very high car payment that I can afford and I need help with this. I think Nissan should replace this car. It is dangerous. This car is dangerous and it has a recall for the water leak through the electrical that I smelt burning a couple times when it rains.

The other driver ran a stop sign at 40 MPH and sustained chest pain injuries. The air bags did not deploy. The contact was transported to the hospital where it was diagnosed that she sustained a sternum fracture, a T-12 wedge compression fracture of the Spine, a L-5 lumbar fracture.

On 11/21/2020 at 5:30 pm, we had a car crash on a highway I-495 (capital beltway, md), we were in our car (I, my wife, 2 kids), we noticed a sudden stop by many cars ahead of us in the same lane we were in (left lane), I pressed my brake and been able to avoid reaching the car ahead of me but unfortunately, the car behind me was very fast with no control in their brake thus, she hit my car from the rear and pushed me to hit the front car. After we stopped, I went out to notice that 9 cars were involved in the crash. Although it was a big and hard accident, my car's airbags didn't deploy, however, it did open in most of the other cars. Due to the nondeployment of the airbag, we had a lot of body pains, whiplashes, and my son was hit in his head (I have an emergency initial diagnostic report from the hospital). In addition, my car experienced huge damages from back and front, and eventually, it had been totally unfixable according to the inspection from the collision technician. I had contacted the car manufacturer (nissan) to open a case, but they didn't consider the risk that we exposed by not deploying the airbags and they ignore that they are having any problems regarding this issue and they justified this incident by saying that as long as the car been hit by the rear the airbag will not be deployed regardless of the hit strength.

Brakes did not engage when braking. Was in bumper to bumper traffic let car in front of me to go a 1.5 car lengths before I took foot of the brake never hit the gas coasted until I was 1/2 a car length from the car in front of me and went to hit the brakes again and it did not engage causing me to hit the back of the vehicle in front of me. Meanwhile the airbags did not deploy even though impact speed was 2 MPH I believe the airbags should have gone off with how far the hood got smashed.
