I took my car in to Nissan for recall they suposeively fixed the airbag problem. Since then I has a small fender bender. Airbag did not pop open. Last week the car was in an accident. The front was severly danmaged and still airbag did not pop out. I dont think it ever got fixed!!!! my son could have died.who is responsible for this. I'm I complaining to the correct place"?"
I took my car to a local Nissan dealership for an airbag recall on the driver side and after the recall was supposedly done because after this I'm not even positive they worked on my car for that recall. After the recall was done now the car horn in my steering wheel is not working when it was working before. The Nissan advisor said that they can't fix it and the reason is because is an old car. They want me to pay almost 700 hundred dollars for them to fix what they ruined. Now I have no car horn. This is a safety hazard for anyone on the road. A car horn works to advice other drivers of any hazard. From this happening to me I now think that they didn't do anything in regards to airbag recalls and that I just took my car just for them to scam me so I can pay for a part that was working and that they ruined. The Nissan I went too is naples Nissan in naples, Florida. I also have called Nissan Consumer Affairs and they haven't done anything in this matter I have two claim numbers already I have called twice and there not doing anything about this matter.

After 1 year and 1/2, muffler has rattling sound, has a hole and is burnt black at end of tail pipe. Same problem after muffler has been changed in the same amount of time. Muffler seems to rust and overheat/burn.
The VIN for my 2011 Nissan Versa [xxx] is not available in your database, or in the Nissan database you referred me to. I have checked it three times. It is correct. So I have no way of identifying any recalls needed. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
While pulling on to the I-26 on ramp the vehicle lost all propulsion power and wouldn't move. Then after I got over to the shoulder it would start but still continues to die after 1 or 2 seconds running. This is not the first time this has happened. It had done this before about 6 months prior. I am currently stuck due to this issue
Owner notification the front driver and passenger air bag inflator can explode in a crash which could result in metal shrapnel striking or other occupants in the vehicle, wich could cause serious injury or death, and the dealer falls or is unable to make the necesary repairs free.
Takata air bag recall Nissan refuses to provide loaner vehicle while "waiting on parts". I have called their customer service number several times with no action being taken on their part. Corporate blames the dealers while the dealers say its a corporate problem
September 26, 2017, I was driving down my street going approximately 25mph when my car just stopped near the end of the road. I noticed the check engine light on when I stepped on the gas, but the car wouldn't move. I couldn't even steer. It scared me! I turned the car off and waited a minute and turned the key. It started but I was afraid to drive it to work so I went back home. I took the car to my mechanic to see if he could find the problem. It was the gas pedal assembly: P2138. I was told it had the wrong app sensor rationality signal. The mechanic was advised by the Nissan dealer to tell me not to drive the car until the part was replaced as the car could shut down anytime, anyplace without warning and could cause a dangerous situation. I was told there was no recall. I did as I was told and left my car at the shop until my part came in and was replaced.
When driving at night, when a person dims their headlights the dimmer will cause headlights to turn completely off. Posing a danger to everyone in the car!! this has been an ongoing issue since purchasing the car in 2012 and is continuing.
My vehicle has about 42,000 miles. All of a sudden, the engine roars and sounds like a helicopter. I took it to the dealership and they stated that the muffler and exhaust system needs to be replaced. They attribute it to rock salt. However, this is a common issue with this car. The material used by this manufacturer and/or their vendor is not of good quality. If not addressed, this could lead to an accident and it must be recalled. There are numerous complaints against Nissan regarding this issue to no avail.
I have 42000 miles on my car, and all of a sudden yesterday my muffler started rattling and being extremely loud. I parked my car and it was fine, but when I started it up to leave where I was it was noisy - very sudden and unexpected. Had someone look at it, and it appears that the flange between my muffler and the manifold cracked clean apart. Not due to rust or corrosion as it is a clean break. He said it appeared to him that it must not have been a very good weld to begin with.
Due to poor welding at the flange my exhaust pipe has become severed at the flange even though there is not to much rust present. This is a safety issue due to exhaust not going out the tail pipe
Exhaust system, rear muffler, poor weld at flange: Virtually no rust or corrosion but weld bead separated from flange causing muffler to shake and move around and could possibly separate and fall off vehicle. Also, the loose joint causes exhaust fumes to not all go out the tailpipe tip; which could be dangerous.
I was on my way to work one morning at 430am I was on the interstate. I felt a pull in my steering wheel and heard a big popping noise and pulled over to check on it and everything to me at that time looked ok. I keep driving 5 more mins or so and I heard the noise again and at that time my passenger tire was flat, I had to call a tow truck which costed me 160$. I thought it was just a regular tire blow out till my I take it to get fixed and my suspension had busted. I had to replace the front bumper (get it painted extra 135$), passenger side fender windshield wiper box, passenger fender well, ABS senor cable, get the suspension fixed and the plastic piece that goes along under the doors.(the long piece along the bottom) a total of 670$ out of my pocket
Exhaust system corroding early after normal use. Need to replace midpipe and springs holding parts of the exhaust system in place. I am having them replaced before it causes an incident, but if not fixed it could have lead to pieces of the exhaust system falling off during driving and causing a road hazard
