Takata recall - two separate recalls have been issued for my car, 17v‑028 and 17v‑449. The first recall is from january 10th. The recall states: "nissan is currently awaiting parts to remedy the affected vehicles. Nissan will send you a second letter, when parts are available, asking you to bring your vehicle to an nissan dealer for the remedy at that time." this has been almost 7 full months, and I have not received anything regarding the new parts being available, so I am still driving with a car with a defective airbag.

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 nissan versa. Upon starting the vehicle, the air bag indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to nissan of burlingame (101 california dr, burlingame, ca 94010). The dealer stated that they could not complete the recall repair for the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v349000 (air bags) until the unknown failure that caused the air bag indicator to illuminate could be repaired. A diagnostic test would also be needed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
"takata recall" I received a notice in march, the passenger air bag was under recall. I was to wait for a second notice, that was supposed to have been received by the end of april, before taking it in for replacement at a nissan dealer. That notice has not yet come.
Takata recall - received recall notice in the mail in early march 2017. Parts for the recall repair were expected by the end of april. It is now the beginning of july and I have not received any updates and no repairs. I am not supposed to drive with passengers in the front seat and I feel unsafe driving this vehicle. I've been waiting for parts and notification of repair for over three months. My initial letter states that if my recall is not completed in a timely manner that I should file a complaint with the federal safety agency, and I am doing that now. Please help me get my vehicle repaired.
Takata recall (potentially - my notice doesn't say specifically). I received a recall notice early this year that said I would be receiving a second letter by the end of april for replacement parts for the "front passenger air bag inflator". It is now the end of june, and I haven't received the letter. I am currently unable to use my passenger seat due to this. It also seems there is a danger to me continuing to drive the car.

Takata recall - it has been about a year since first time I contacted the dealer for repair of this recall item. Yet to date, I get the same excuse that they don't have the part and they will call me when they have a part. Meanwhile, this vehicle is in use because, it is a primary transportation for me and my family.
Takata recall - it has almost been a year since the recall and a 2nd letter has not been sent out & a repair has not been done. It is unreasonable to expect me to drive a car in which no one can sit in the passenger seat for a year or more due to a dangerous air bag!
Takata recall: was notified by nissan 3 time during the last 6 + months but every time I request the recall repair, nissan advises that parts are not available and repairs cannot be made

I received a recall notice in the mail (the federal safety agency recall 16v‑349) on july 27, 2016 with a warning that the passenger seat air bag could rupture, but would be repaired at nissan's expense. This notice stated that I would be contacted by nissan to bring my vehicle in for repair when parts where available. I waited until september 26, 2016 without any word from nissan whatsoever. On september 26th 2016 I placed a call to nissan consumers affairs dept. At 1‑800‑647‑7261 and spoke with a girl named shasha at ext 457784, who gave me a case #24185800 and told me that it might be a month before I would hear anything as parts were not available at that moment. On october 27, 2016 I called again, as in the meantime I was not able to have any passengers ride in the front seat, and I have been very diligent in complying with this suggestion. This time I talked to a girl named jonna at ext. #457477 who gave me a different case # 24454562 but told me that it would be the end of december of 2016 or possibly as far as the end of march 2017 before they would have parts available. Now, today is march 31, 2017 and I have not been contacted by any nissan dealership or anyone else who would give me any kind of information. So now I am using this website to submit a complaint, can you please help me? My phone number was just recently changed, but I still live at the same address that the recall was sent to.
