This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving 65 mph driver applied the brakes to slow down the speed and consumer lost control, causing the vehicle to hit a guard rail and role three times. Vehicle landed upside down. Upon impact, the airbag did not deploy. Driver sustained minor injuries.
Rear-ended another vehicle-I was travelling approximately 45 miles per hour. Neither air bag deployed. My vehicle was totalled.taken by ambulance to hospital. My vehicle was purchased new-so I know air bags have never been disconnected. What recourse do I have" faulty equipment? manufacturer? who do I contact"
I was the driver of my 2000 Nissan xterrain - involved in a vehicle accident in January 2003. I was completely stopped, and hit from behind by a vehicle going 40 mph. I then hit the vehicle in front of me. The airbag did not deploy. The Nissan was totalled and I was injured.
I rear-ended a Ford F-350 at approx 30 mph. Neither of my airbags deployed. I have called peterson's body shop, on a daily basis, where my vehicle is being repaired. The body shop guy said there was a "short" in the wiring harness which made the check light not work and the airbags not deploy. I feel that no one will take responsibility for the resulting failure of my airbags because I was not injured. I have contacted Nissan. I spoke with [xxx], my file # is [xxx] at 1-800-nissan1. I have also contacted [xxx] dahle Nissan of sandy, where I leased the vehicle. Also there isn't a part number on the faulty wiring harness that has delayed the repair of my vehicle from the accident on December 6,2001. I thank you for any information you can give me. Sincerely, [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
I an pretty sure at 50 mph hitting another car the airbags should deployed. I don't know enough about them to say that with 100% accuracy, but you would. Nissan will look at the car, but how can I know if they say they shoudl not have deployed if they are saying that to appease me or because it's true.
I am concerned that the air bag did not deploy upon impact of the other vehicle. This was a frontal collision for me and a side impact for the other vehicle. My front bumper and front end was badly damaged to a point where my air bags should have deployed, this also what the office on the scene had indicated.
Was driving 40mph when another vehicle was turning in front. Nissan hit front quarter panel. Upon impact, neither air bags deployed. Was emergency room treatment.
Consumer was traveling about 55mph on a rual route and vehicle ran off the road. Then, he came back on the road, and vehicle started slipping. Right wheel came completely off, and vehicle started rolling three to four times. The passengers were ejected from vehicle. Consumer sustained head injuries. Also, dual airbags didn't deploy. Vehicle was totaled and towed to repair shop.
