TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN NEARLY 11 MONTHS SINCE I RECEIVED THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE, AND I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE 2ND LETTER INFORMING ME THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THAT DOES NOT FIT THE RECALL BEING DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. MY TRANSPORTATION COSTS ARE HIGHER BECAUSE I HAVE TO USE A LESS FUEL EFFICIENT VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON IN OUR CAR AND FLASHES. I AM CONCERNED TO BE DRIVING IT AS THE AIRBAGS MAY BE UNSAFE. IT HAPPENS AS SOON AS CAR IS TURNED ON AND CONTINUES DURING DRIVING.

TAKATA RECALL OF PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY FLASHES, WE HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE ON THIS VEHICLE RECALL SEVERAL TIMES IN THE MAIL. LAST YEAR WE TOOK IT TO HUNT NISSAN IN CHATTANOOGA ,TENNESSEE AND WERE TOLD THEY COULD NOT GET PART TO REPAIR AIRBAG.

TAKATA RECALL - I TOOK MY 2010 NISSAN VERSA TO THE FOX NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN GRAND RAPIDS, MI AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULDN'T HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPLACE MY AIR BAG UNTIL THE SUMMER OF 2018. I FEEL THAT DRIVING A CAR THAT HAS FAULTY AIRBAGS AND THAT POSSIBLY COULD INJURE PEOPLE FROM METAL FRAGMENTS IS A SERIOUS RECALL THAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING THEIR VEHICLES. I WAS NOT OFFERED ANOTHER VEHICLE TO REPLACE MY VEHICLE UNTIL THIS REPAIR IS MADE AND IT IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE FOR WORK AND TRANSPORTATION FOR MY FAMILY.

TAKATA RECALL. DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING CAR IS FIXED, BUT SAFECAR WEBSITE A WEEK LATER IS NOT SHOWING FIXED AND AUTOMAKER NISSAN IS SAYING PARTS AREN'T AVAILABLE YET.

TAKATA RECALL: I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET A LOANER VEHICLE AND NONE OF THE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS IN CENTRAL FLORIDA OR EVEN IN SOUTH FLORIDA HAVE RENTALS. I ESCALATED MY CASE TO THE CONSUMERS AFFAIRS DPT AT NISSAN CORP AND THEY HAVE NOT HELPED AT ALL. THEY CAN'T OFFER ANY LOANERS, NO RENTALS. THEY ARE ONLY OFFERING TO "REVIEW" ANY RECEIPTS I MAY HAVE FOR RENTALS, BUT THEY WILL NOT BE GUARANTEED TO BE REIMBURSED. DEALERSHIPS DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON. SOME EMPLOYEES SAID PARTS WILL BE HERE IN WEEKS, BUT KNOW I KNOW PARTS WILL NOT ARRIVE UNTIL SPRING 2018. I AM MOVING AND THEY WON'T EVEN PAY FOR MY CAR TO BE TRANSPORTED FROM CENTRAL FLORIDA TO SOUTH FLORIDA. NISSAN CONSUMER'S AFFAIR DPT. SAID THEY WON'T COVER THOSE COSTS. THEY ARE OFFERING NO HELP TO HAVE SAFE CARS ON THE ROAD, MUCH LESS TO PROTECT DRIVERS LIVES. NISSAN CORP., RESPONDED "THEY CAN'T DICTATE WHAT DEALERSHIPS CAN OR NOT DO BECAUSE THEY ARE INDEPENDENTLY OWNED" WHEN I ASKED WHY THEY ARE NOT COLLABORATING WITH DEALERSHIPS TO PROVIDE MORE RENTALS TO COSTUMERS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA RECALLS. I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS SITUATION FOR WEEKS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS TOLD BY THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT I MAY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE YEAR UNTIL THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS ARE AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WHILE I WAIT FOR A REPLACEMENT AIRBAG MY SON COULD BE KILLED BY THE DEFECTIVE ONE????????? ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE.

TAKATA RECALL . I RECEIVED THE NOTICE WEEKS AGO AND CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP ( FORD IN AUBURN) AND THEY DIRECTED ME TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I CONTACTED THEM AND EMAILED MY CONCERN ABOUT DRIVING AND HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD SINCE.THE AIRBAG IS FAULTY AND I DRIVE MY DAUGHTERS IN MY VEHICLE DAILY WITH CONCERN SINCE RECEIPT OF POSSIBLE DEATH RELATED EXPLODING AIR BAG.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN VERSA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V449000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG AND ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED FIRKINS NISSAN (1611 CORTEZ RD W, BRADENTON, FL 34207; 941-755-1571) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE AWARE OF WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 2018. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 153,704. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA INFLATORS: DESPITE THE INITIAL RECALL BEING ISSUED IN 2016 AS YET NO FIX AVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING 2018. CONTACTED NISSAN DEALER IN BIRMINGHAM AL AND WAS OFFERED A LOAN CAR UNTIL THEY REALISED I WILL NOT BE 21 UNTIL JUNE 2018. IT SEEMS HYPOCRITICAL TO OFFER A LOAN CAR DUE TO SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE NISSAN VERSA BUT THEN WITHDRAW THE OFFER AND LEAVE NO OPTION BUT TO DRIVE A POTENTIALLY UNSAFE VEHICLE DUE TO AN ISSUE WITH THEIR INSURANCE COMPANY.

TAKATA RECALL. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG. THE DEALER DOES NOT EXPECT TO HAVE REPLACEMENT INFLATORS UNTIL SPRING OF 1918. THIS IS ENTIRELY TOO LONG AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO WAIT THIS LONG FOR REPAIRS.

TAKATA RECALL DEALER SPECIFIED THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR MY VEHICLE, AND THAT THEY CAN INSECURELY STORE MY VEHICLE ON THEIR LOT UNTIL REPAIRS ARE COMPLETED. DURING THE INTERIM, A RENTAL VEHICLE WILL BE PROVIDED, HOWEVER, I ON MY OWN TIME MUST RENEW THE RENTAL CONTRACT EVERY 28 DAYS. ESTIMATED WAIT IS UNTIL SPRING 2018 (3-6 MONTHS WAIT).

TAKATA RECALL- CONTACTED LOCAL NISSAN COMPANY AND THEY CANNOT REMEDY OUR RECALL UNTIL SPRING OF 2018. JUST WANTED IT ON FILE THAT WE DID MAKE THE ATTEMPT TO FIX THE ISSUE BUT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. HOPEFULLY WE WON'T HAVE ANY INJURIES BEFORE WE CAN GET IT FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING OF 2018. IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2017 AND MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE. THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT, BUT THE WEBSITE SAID TO COMPLETE FORM IF THE REPAIR COULD NOT BE DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. 6 MONTHS IS NOT A TIMELY MANNER FOR MY CHILD TO BE AT RISK FOR INJURY.
