Takata recall .. I was informed by the dealer that the part that is required to fix/replace the recalled airbag will only be ready possibly in spring of 2018...I could get into an accident before then and die from this recall of the airbag by the time spring comes around.

Takata recall: my 2009 nissan versa was recalled for the takata air bags. I received a formal notice from nissan last spring and was advised of the potential issue but they did not have parts available to replace the part at fault. Their remedy was to not have anyone sit in the front passenger seat until a replacement part was available. I finally got notice to schedule the replacement of the air bag inflator in late september. The service advisor at my nissan dealership advised there were 2 recalls for both front air bag inflators but they only had parts for the passenger side. Service was scheduled for 10/2/2017 and the passenger side inflator was replaced within a week of my receiving the notice. However, the dealership service advisor told us that the driver's side part is not available an will not be available for 3 to 4 months. This is unacceptable to me - will nissan give me a loaner vehicle until the part is in stock? Apparently, lives are in jeopardy and no one seems to be in a hurry to remediate the situation!

Cannot get loaner car for air bag recall that my cause death letter promises a loaner car, but nissan dealerships refuse to help and even tell me don't worry car is ok.
Takata recall received the federal safety agency recall 17v‑449 pertaining to the driver's side airbag. The recall discribes the condition as dangerous to the driver of the vehicle. Contacted mcgavock nissan in lubbock texas due to purchasing the vehicle at this dealer. Service department told me to just drive the car that it was not an issue. When I asked about the complimentary loaner I was told that wasn't going to happen. This is my commuter car for work, so now I have to find another vehicle to drive until the parts are available. I don't understand how this dealership makes this my fault.they seem to take no responsibility on the matter. Is there no avenue for the vehicle owner to take as far as getting the complimentary loaner car mentioned in the recall notice. When I call all the phone numbers given, they just circle back and send me to another number that circles me back again. The same dealership damaged the dash on the passenger side when repairing the passenger side airbag months ago. It's like I bought a new car that I can't use and it's my fault. If nissan isn't going to honor a recall that they chose to send out, why did they send it out in the first place. Nissan is just shifting responsibility for their shortcomings to their own consumers. If I continue to drive the car and it explodes in my face, nissan with say that I had been warned of the problem and shouldn't have driven the car. However, they give you no alternative because they have no intention of providing a complimentary loaner car.

Received passenger airbag warning this spring. My daughter was forced to drive around with everyone in the back seat. Months later we get a recall for the driver side airbag. Now my daughter can't even drive the car! Replacement parts aren't expected til 'spring 2018' which is months away. What am I supposed to do with this car during that time?
Takata recall - I never got notice for either of our vehicles needing a repair and it's been longer than 60 days since the recall date. We have two vehicles that are recalled. I just happened to find out on social media that there was a recall.
I have gone to the dealership and asked for a replacement and was told they did not have part. Call in sept. Called yesterday takata dosent have part and they do not have rental . I drive my grandchildren every day and do not feel safe.
I received a recall notice saying that my driver side airbag made by takata needs to be replaced and that parts will not be available until the spring of 2018, and that nissan would supply me with a loaner car until the parts were available, when I talked to the dealer ship they said that I'm not eligible for a loaner because I'm only 23 years old, meaning if your under 25 it's ok to drive a car that could take your life. Also I found out that my passenger side airbag and front springs have a recall on them that I was never notified about, so my question is are company aloud to leave unsafe vehicle on the road leaving me to hope nothing will happen because of my age? I have no tickets or accidents and I've been driving sense I was 16 years old. Thank you [xxx] [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).'

Takata recall. Received notice about this recall in march 2017. Notice said parts would be in by the end of april 2017. Called 6/2/17 and was told parts would be in by end of june. Next time told end of july. It is now september and still waiting on parts. I never expected such a serious recall could take so long. Thank god I'm not sending a complaint telling you the air bag ruptured and my son is dead because of it. To have to worry every time the car is used that he will be seriously injured or worse, is unacceptable in this day and age. Feel at this point, that nissan should provide another vehicle for him to drive instead of having him be at risk of dying from this faulty airbag that can rupture even at high temperatures and humidity. It doesn't even have to be an accident. Where is customer service with this company?
Takata recall, never notified of 1st passenger side recall, much less the new driver side recall. No parts for drivers side airbag. Are we supposed to drive a vehicle that may explode and send metal in to us?
Recall 17v‑028 I received a recall notice pertaining to the front passenger airbags. The message said that the new parts should be available by the end of april 2017. To this day, august 18th, 2017, I have received no further notice to let me know that the new parts are available. This is very serious and I feel that it's important to have this matter taken care of immediately.
Apparently there was a recall and I just found out through a story posted on facebook. I want to know when and how I can get this fixed as I do live in a high humidity state (florida) and how will I be compensated up to $500 as the lawsuit agreed. I had no clue about the passenger not the drivers airbags until today.
