Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 nissan versa. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated for an extended period of time ever since the vehicle was purchased. Also, the horn was serviced more than twice and failed to function properly. The dealer (kelly nissan, inc., 4300 95th st, oak lawn, il 60453, (708) 499-1000) was notified and stated that the failure was not related to an air bag recall repair. Therefore, the vehicle would need to be further tested and diagnosed to provide a repair solution. The vehicle was also taken to an independent repair facility to repair the horn, but the independent mechanic stated that the air bag failure needed to be diagnosed and repaired first. The manufacturer was notified. The manufacturer issued three air bag recalls, two tsbs for the air bags, and one tsb for the electrical system. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

Takata recall I went to grey daniels nissan in brandon, mississippi last year (I want to say august) after reading an article on a financial column I follow in regards to the takata air bags. I was not notified in anyway prior to that. I bought my vehicle used from someone which is what I blamed for not being notified. (however I know that is quite possible that a large company such as nissan keeps records of vins and could track their vehicle's ownership through that) they replaced the passenger side air bag and broke part of my dash in the process. I was notified that the driver's side air bag was unavailable for replacement and would not be until the beginning of this year. Even though I know that they make replacement air bags for vehicles, I made an excuse and told myself, "maybe it's a certain company they're going with." I have been trying to get the driver's side replaced since the beginning of this year. Their website would not allow me to schedule anything more than two days in advance until last week, when it allowed four days in advance. I made my appointment and clearly stated why I was coming in. I was informed that it would was not available at that time and they would have to order it. I know people who have other manufacturers who have gotten a rental car while they were fixing the air bag. I was told to contact my insurance company so the insurance company would pay for the rental, not nissan.

Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 nissan versa. The contact stated that the dealer failed to provide the part for an air bag recall for over two months. The remedy failed to provide a solution and the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated after the air bag recall repair. The dealer (kingston nissan, 140 ny-28, kingston, ny 12401, (845) 338-3100) provided a loaner vehicle for two months. After retrieving the vehicle, the dealer had not yet provided a solution after the contact informed the dealer that the recall repair failed to correct the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

Takata inflators: I verified with nissan consumer affairs that the passenger side airbag inflator was also under recall as of january 2018 and I was told to advise the dealer. I went jan 26 to get the drivers side inflator fixed and advised the service guy that the passenger side had also been recalled, so I would like them both fixed. When I picked up my car he had only requested the driver side to be repaired. I was late to work so I left but I was very upset because I have to take my mother to her appointments and do not have time to keep going back and forth to the dealer.

It was clear weather 830am I was on a street which speed was 40-55mph going within the speed limit the vehicle had been properly maintained since ownership when out of no where my right front end dropped which I learned was ( my front coil spring snapped) and caused my vehicle to loose control and the car to roll multiple times and me being ejected out of the vehicle and the air bags also did not deploy even though they were engaged on. Nissan did not notify me of the recent recall of the front coil spring at all. I'm currently filing a lawsuit against the company due to serious damages that have affected me greatly.

Takata recall and spring coil recall I purchased/financed my nissan versa car this year 2017 around february. Sometime in july 2017 I received a letter informing me of the takata recall for the air bag inflator hazard and to contact the nearest nissan dealer for further instructions. I contacted them here in monroe michigan gave them my VIN number and they then informed me that they were aware of the recall & also informed me of a second recall of a spring coal recall was a recall before I purchased the car and was not informed of it also, they then proceeded to tell me that at that time they did not have any loaner vehicles available & that they can place me on a waitlist or that I could call around to different dealerships to see if they had any available. They stated that they only had 4 loaner vehicles on there lot & that they were using them only for their customers & they would come first before anyone else. I called three other dealerships they all put me on the waiting list with no response back & several attempts inquiring about the loaner vehicle. I have not driven the car since july up until the date, while I had been driving prior to july I had had several problems with the suspension on the car, had the car services twice at the dealership I purchased the vehicle from with no solution to the problem when I'm driving the car you can smell a tire burning smell & they said it was ok to drive. I thought otherwise so I completely stop driving the car still payed the carnote monthly & car insurance waiting on the loaner vehicle. Because of this I have almost lost my job, missed worked & had to car pool my kid's & I back & forth to school & work. I talked to the nissan corporation they investigated it & informd me that they would not be able to reimburse me & still proceeded to keep me on the waitlist I have recently given the car back requesting for a refund.

Takata recall I was contacted about this recall by the dealership where the car was purchased approximately 1 1/2 months ago (september 2017). I was told then that the recalled airbag would not be resolved until sometime in the spring of 2018 roughly placing the needed recall 6 months after the recall was announced. An offer of a loaner car was made but the question then was, "what was I supposed to do with the affected vehicle?" I was told to leave it sit in my garage until the replacement could be made. I don't think 6 months difference between a recall notice and the actual replacement is appropriate even if a loaner car was offered. The replacement should be completed in a more timely fashion. What options do I have?

Takata recall - I have contacted nissan's corporate offices after calling local nissan dealers to coordinate the replacement. I was told by the dealers that the recall and replacement of parts will not begin to take place until spring of 2018. I was told the same by their corporate offices. I explained that I don't feel comfortable and safe operating the vehicle and was advised to contact my local dealership for a loaner. I was told by all of my local dealers that my request is not feasible as their loaner vehicles are limited and intended for other purposes. I informed them that it was their corporate office who offered it as a solution, but they said no. When icalled their corporate offices to inquire as to why I was advised to request a loaner in the meantime, they asked me to be patient and wait until they're ready to replace the parts. Again, I asked why the aforementioned solution was initially offered if it wasn't an option. I was met with the same statement and their representative stated that to date, there have been no incidents reported involving this particular issue. I asked, if that's the case, how was your company made aware of this safety issue and I wasn't given an answer. They repeated themselves and offered no viable solution. At the moment, I need the vehicle for transportation to/from work and I pray that I don't get involved in any type of accident. Since then, I've been receiving solicited calls from the dealerships regarding the recall. However, it's not to replace the defective part(s), it's to purchase another vehicle as a solution to the recall. It's preposterous that the would even call regarding the recall to solicit sales instead of actually addressing the issue.

After receiving by mail notification of the recall, I went to a nissan dealer trying to get a rental car. First attempt an associate approached me "trying to make her sell"... I presented my notification and immediatly she changed her approach. She told me it was too late and that I need it to come back. I went back a couple days later and earlier, at 04:00pm as she requested. Again, no one was able to helped me getting a rental or substitute vehicle. I requested for them to check with other nissan dealers, but I just got a "no" for an answer: "I am busy, I have too much load work... Etc" I called myselft to another nissan dealer and they told me they will call me back in about two weeks, when they have an available rental car for me.... Until now that dealer haven't call me yet. I went to a nissan dealer, and at this point I was all concerned due to my new job commute. Finally I found an associate willing to help, but I have to paid deposit ($50.00) for the rental car and increased my insurance payments up $130 monthly premium (updated to full coverage even after I paid off my car -nissan versa 2011-) any dealer associate showed corncen for the safety recall nor for any possible fatal accident.

Takata recall I am being forced to take my car off the road and either get a rental or purchase a new car. The dealer ship will not have the parts until late spring of 2018. That means my car will be off the road for at least 6 months. Recall #17v‑449

I have received a recall for airbag on driver's side. The new airbag will not be available until spring 2018. The nissan dealer recommends that I do not drive the car and hire a car from enterprise. The loan car would be free, but I would have to pay full coverage insurance. The cost of that would be $28 per day. This is ridiculous! I cannot pay that amount. What do I do? Do I risk injury by driving the car? What is the actual risk? Nobody can tell me.
