Between notice for the passenger side air bag recall and then the recall for the driver's side air bag, this process has been unreasonably long and required far too much effort on my part to resolve. At every step this has required far too much of my personal attention and time. The only way I've been able to make this recall process work for me is by setting up a google alert about Nissan recalls to remind me to call them periodically. Otherwise they would never inform me about any developments with this recall. When I finally called them again they required far too much information from me just to give me information about the recall. It's like they just want to put so many roadblocks on this process to make sure that most people just give up and drive unsafe cars instead of getting them fixed. And that's at each step. I give all this information when I talk to one person then I talk to someone else and have to give them the same information and then the next and so on. I can't believe how much time this process wastes. And finally the dealership is ready to replace the driver side air bag. I should be grateful and happy that the process is finally over but they tell me that they've had the parts since February and ask what my problem is getting this fixed. February. They didn't send me any notice about this and the recall hasn't been updated to show that parts are available, and it's my fault somehow? Nissan has to be held to account for this inefficient and wasteful process. I don't imagine most people would stick through this process the way I have and that most people would end up simply not getting their car's fixed. There will only be more and more casualties if Nissan isn't forced to make their recall process reasonable and sane.

I got a recall notice from you and I have attempted to call several Nissan dealerships and they state that they do not have the parts until sping and they do not have any loner cars to give out and do not know when they will have more loaner cars. Now my airbag light just went on and will not turn off. It seems to be a problem with the airbags. Its really dangerous yet, these dealerships do not take this serious.

"takata recall" on October 21, 2017 we took our 2009 Nissan Versa into the Nissan dealership in abilene Texas after scheduling the recall replacement of both airbags. Upon picking up the vehicle the same day we were told only the passenger side airbag was replaced because they did not have the driver's side airbag. I was told by the service advisor that due to takata going out of business the replacement airbag was not available and could take several months before becoming available. I asked about loaner vehicle at that time and she indicated their dealership was not providing loaners due to low inventory. She gave me Nissan 800# and told me they would set-up a rental from enterprise. However, the vehicle was being used by our 20 year old son who is a student at a university in town. She said he couldn't obtain a vehicle until he was 21. A few day later I called Nissan Consumer Affairs and was told to call back after our son turned 21. On 1/2/18 called nca back, they told me a "regional specialist" would call on 1/3. at 4:58 cst on 1/3/18 I received the call back, but it was someone calling on behalf of the reg.spclst. Essentially telling us the abilene dealership had no loaners, and that the enterprise the dealership used had no vehicles either. She stated they should be getting the replacement parts "asap" but would give me no timeframe. So I asked her if my son had to risk his life by continuing to drive the vehicle for an unspecified time period until then, she would not respond to that question. As a parent with a son who is about to graduate from college and begin his life independently how am I supposed to accept this outcome. Nissan says they have had no problems with the driver's side airbag, but is a young life worth the risk? apparently it is to Nissan.
