Seatbelt on driver's side didn't lock. Seatbelt on passenger side did lock no one riding there. A deer jumped right in front of me going 55mph air came out but I didn't get any powder burns and seatbelt pulled all the way out. I'm a small woman lucky I didn't go through the windshield.

The Airbag light is stuck on solid(its accessable). The seatbelts lock without toucking them(its accessable). The trunk wont unlock electrical problem through wire harness(its accessable) My safety and everyone else safety is in danger with these recalls that the dealer wont acknowledge on my 2007 Nissan Versa still in 2022. The problems are on all nissan versa models through 2007 - 2012 have been confirmed by dealer and my vehicle is a 2007 nissan versa hatchback and it says theres no recalls for my VIN which Nissan needs to be sued for this or actually fix there recalls. My vehicle has not been inspected by dealer, police, or insurance. But It has been checked by professional mechanics. no lights before problem started. just came on out of no where Airbag light never blinks just stays on solid after car is turned on. and the trunk worked just fine for 15 years until yesterday. the trunk has some electrical problem after mechanic inspected it. Fix these problems. My safety is in danger and so is everyone else.

Dear sir, Nissan corporate has been very rude and purposely mis-representing information with regards to putting us in an alternative vehicle since the recall. The are also refusing to honor a driver side seat belt warranty, the seat belt being stuck in it's buckle. On 11/1/2017 we were advised to not drive our Versa any more in a phone call from Nissan. The local dealer then told us to call back again the following day, as the person who is supposed to give us paperwork is on leave. We insisted and then a service technician told us to call enterprise and reserve a car. Enterprise sent us back to Nissan dealer for a purchase order. Finally with run around, another service tech gave us the papwerwork for the loaner car. We called enterprise again to book the car and got their at the 5:00 pm, when the car was reserved. It took 90 minutes for enterprise to get the car after which service manager reneeta refuesed to give us a car until we paid a deposit. She persisted and suggested that if we did not buy insurance, the smallest dent on the car will come off our personal insurance deductible, even if not our fault. I am at loss on why we should be paying such deposits or be harrassed be the Nissan dealer and rental car for a recall and why is Nissan offerring customers a loaner and then harress them so that customer give up on taking the loaner. I will call NHTSA tomorrow to formally request an investigation on the same.

Takata recall I am having difficulty with the recall process, primarily receiving a return call from dealership after calling on four different occasions; and receiving alternate transportation option because "all 35 loaner cars had been already given out". I do not want to drive this vehicle due to the serious nature of the recalls, however I have not been able to rectify this situation with local dealerships. Please help.

Car seat belt on passenger side would not open, that is to say that the belt would not come out of the thing in which it is put where you push the red button. Several strangers tried to help but it was locked and passenger was in a very uncomfortable tight situation ( thank god he did not suffocate). And the belt would not come out. Passenger was stuck, until we cut it. We wish for the belt to be replaced by Nissan and should they want a recall -please let us know.

Versa 4-cyl

  • 55 miles
My car seat belts are not working properly on the passenger side and my air bags warning lights are flashing. I contacted Nissan North America and asked them about any recalls for this car and they said no. However, I went on -line to several websites, such as www.internetautoguide.com and found that they are recalls on my 2007 Nissan Versa 4door hatchback since June 18, 2007 due to a manufacturing process with regards to the terminals for the passenger side seat belt tension sensor harness connector which results in a loss of electrical continuity causing the occupant detection system to become inoperative. The consequence: If this occurs, the air bags warning light will come on the passenger side frontal air bag will be suppressed. Please advise. Additionally, I purchased the car new July 20, 2007 and was not made aware of this. The recall id#64288 affected unit 16309.
