Because many owners commonly drive 20,000 miles/year or more, Versa owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.

On February 2, 2021 around 0820 on South marine Corp drive rt.1 (across East agana mobil gas station) the driver's side airbag in my vehicle had unexpectly deployed while driving (vehicle in motion) to work; while in the middle of rush hour traffic. I'm had the vehicle towed to Nissan guam for them to investigate and the results were given to me by service manager gibert a spiral cable in the steering column grounded, overtime causing a short circuit in the airbag module which enacted the unexpected deployment and has nothing to do with the recall. And because the airbag has deployed we there is no recall items to replace. The vehicle remains in Nissan guam's possession at the moment.
There is a recall regarding my airbags #B2tp-3vl and Nissan refuses to provide me with a loaner vehicle. My recall notice says that they have to provide me with a loaner vehicle. Italked to the dealer and to the Nissan corporate office and nobody will help. I cannot afford to take time off of work nor spend my day off at the car dealership as I watch my grandchildren over the weekends
The front airbag is not functioning properly. Because of the steering I almost had an accident, my wheel didn't want to turn. The brakes always make noise.
Drivers airbag module bad in the vehicle and the airbag light is flashing. The drivers side airbag will not deploy in the event of an accident. I know there was a recall for many of them for this model year but this is not one of them and this vehicle is effected. This needs to one corrected
I we T to have the safety recall fixed but the dealership said that someone had altered the harness for the airbag, it was the first id heard of it. They said id have to buy a brand new harness for the vehicle for over a thousand dollars, so I didn't get the recall fixed. Went to the place I bought the car and they said they weren't liable for it either. Just want to get those airbags out of my car.

My car had a R1709 recall. This was to fix the airbags. I took it to my local Nissan dealership to had the repair done. The waiting time I was told would be about 1 or 2 hours. It took about 5 hours and I was told it was because a new inexperienced mechanic was working on it. When I got my car back the lights telling me there is something wrong with the airbags were still blinking. I had no time to go back since they had just wasted all the time I had. The very next day I realized that now my car's horn doesn't work either. This was never a problem before. I called to tell them I believe they may have messed up the work they were supposed to do. They simply told me they did the work they had to and that if my car has additional issues it's not their problem. I even told them I find it hard to believe that all the car's airbags are failing at the same time and that now the horn doesn't make any sound right after I took it to get it fixed. I believe they did the wrong work on it which might explain why they took far longer than they were supposed to. They gave me no solution so I had to make a case with Nissan corporate. The only solution I was given by corporate was to take it back to the same repair shop and they will check it, however I will be charged for this, unless they find it was their error. I think its pretty obvious what they are going to say, so there is no way I can take it back to the same place that possibly screwed up in the first place so they can charge me to tell me they did a fine job. What I need is someone to check my car to see if they did the job they were actually supposed to do and not get charged for it.
The car was in a low speed accident under 30 mph on the 14th street bridge in Washington D.C. and the entire front of the cars was crushed. The other vehicle in the crash had minor damage to the rear consistent with the speed of the vehicles. Also, the air bags deployed late, several seconds after the crash when the occupants were getting out of the vehicle when the vehicle was stationary.
"takata recall" Nissan dealership will not replace the drivers side airbag, it has replaced 2 airbags only. Bags replaced are side airbag on drivers side, and front airbag for passenger. Spoke to manager of 2 dealership but say those not replaced were not specified, therefore will not replace. Also could not tell me if they were a different brand. Said I would have to pay them to check the brand. Why. Would Nissan use different brands on same car?
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Versa. The contact was not experiencing a failure until the vehicle was repaired per NHTSA campaign number: 17V449000 (air bags). Bedford Nissan (18115 rockside rd, bedford, oh 44146, (440) 336-8611) performed the repair and stated that the remedy failed to provide a permanent repair; therefore, the vehicle needed to be diagnosed to determine if a sensor was faulty. A loaner vehicle was provided when the air bag recall repair was performed. The contact later received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 18V401000 (air bags) and was waiting to determine the manufacturer guidelines to repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was not available.

Takata inflators, I received an email from NHTSA back in July 2018. Exactly a few days later my airbag lights came on again. I haven't had time to take my car to Nissan. I took it in today 2/16/19 and mcdavid Nissan is telling me that my car doesn't have a recall. They won't fix it they want me to pay $800+ to repair it. I've already had to take my car here 2 other times for the same issue. When it had recalls for airbags. I'm guessing the recall isn't active so they're not seeing it. My car was parked in my garage next day the airbag lights came on.
"takata recall" buy my auto used on March 31 of this year in a dealer. On the panel the light of the airbags on and off all the time the time. The seller indicated that I had a recall but Nissan send me a letter explaining the recall and where I had to take to correct the problem. I have not received anything and the VIN does not appear included in the recall for that model and year. On August 21 I recorded and filled the file to vehicle safety complaint but I have also received an answer. I am very concerned with this situation, that a mistake may occur and that afternoon to take action. I hope your response, thank you.
The light on the board of the air bags turns on and off in red at all times when it is on. Buy the car a distributor on March 31 and I made a withdrawal for a defect in the air bags Nissan communicates with me for a replacement but it has not happened. I am very concerned about safety when using the vehicle.
