Takata recall I was notified last summer about a recall on the air bag and was told not to have passengers in the vehicle due to the potentially fatal flaw. This is my only vehicle and I have a family that needs rides. I contacted the dealer recently and was told they don't have the parts and that Nissan wasn't allowing them to order the parts. I contacted Nissan and they tell me the parts are not available until some time in 2017. This is unacceptable that they are aware of the risk and are not expediting this repair to be performed. They basically give me the impression they don't care and they are not in a hurry to get this done. I expected this potential fatal flaw in the vehicle to be repaired asap not when they feel like it. This needs to be expedited because if anything does occu

Takata recall - my airbag light has been on for a year. I took it to planet Nissan in las vegas, nv 12/13/16 to have it checked out. I was told that it would cost $1000 to repair. I declined as it was too expensive and was told that it didn't need to be replaced. A few months later I was told about a recall and was informed that the part would be in in july 2017. It is now december 2017 and I have been told that the part will not be in until july 2018. Nothing has happened but I do not feel safe driving the car and would like the part to be replaced as soon as possible.

Nissan notifies me of the recall but are refusing to repair this issue in a timely manner force me to drive a dangerous car putting me and my family in danger along with others of the public who have to share the road with these dangerous cars

I received a recall notice in july 2016 about the air bag sensors for the passenger air bags being faulty and requiring replacement. I've called my dealership and the Nissan headquarters numerous times about getting the part replaced. Each time I call, I'm told that I have to wait another month for the part to become available. This happened in july, september, october and now in december. The last time I spoke with Nissan, they told me that the part may not be available until january or february of 2017, a full 8-9 months after having received the recall notice. I haven't been able to seat anyone in the front passenger seat since the recall notice. I have kids and need to be able to use that seat. A huge company like Nissan shouldn't string along their consumers along for close to a year

Approximately one year before having the car part repaired, I noticed that when I turned the steering wheel hard to the left to make a tight turn I heard a creaking noise. I was not sure what it was and mentioned it to my mechanic when I brought the car in for an oil change. Mechanic felt it was related to the axle. My husband noticed the noise when driving my car and brought it back to the mechanic. Mechanic had to order a new Nissan axle for the car. The cost of the part and the labor to replace it was at my expense. The mechanic said he was going to return the damaged part to Nissan because he felt it was a defect in manufacturing because this part should not have to be replaced on a 5 year old car with such low mileage. *tr

Tried starting the car; engine would not turn over. Was stranded in a parking lot close to my mechanic's shop and called him. Mechanic sent his assistant to the parking lot where I was and he tried to get the car to turn over. He said he thought the engine was not getting fuel. Car was towed to mechanic and it was determined that fuel pump was broken. Mechanic had difficulty finding a replacement Nissan fuel pump. Fuel pump was obtained and installed at my expense. Mechanic felt that fuel pump should not have had to be replaced on a 5 year old car. *tr

Weld between the muffler pipe and flange failed. It wasn't a hole that rusted out but a clean failure at the weld. *tr

I was informed in may 2016 of the airbag recall and Nissan still does not have the part to repair it, they said jan 2017. And now the transmission has failed in the vehicle and Nissan wants to charge 4600.00 to fix it. I have spoken to several mechanics and Nissan has had a terrible failure rate with these to parts, also the front coil had to be replaced because of a recall. In the state of virginia you have to pass an inspection and that was due in may 2016 and the airbag parts are not in till 01/2019. I had to spend money out of my own pocket to have the car pass inspection in order for my daughter to drive it without getting a moving violation for failed inspection. Nissan said they would be glad to give me a discount only I purchased a new vehicle- that is unjust. *tr

After stopping, car failed to accelerate even though the pedal was pushed all the way to the floor. This is a major safety issue and may cause serious bodily injury if not addressed immediately!!!! *tr
