We had an accident on January 4. We were rear ended and pushed it to the vehicle in front of us. The truck that hit us was going about 65 miles an hour. Our vehicle is totaled. No air bags deployed and my seat did not engage.

I was in a broadside collision. The front end of my car collided with the side of another car. I was going approximately 30-35 mph at time of impact. I had my seat belt on. The airbags failed to deploy and seat belt did not lock resulting in being thrown forward and impacting the steering wheel. The car sustained severe frontal damage and is a total loss from the insurance company. The car has been well maintained and was serviced by Nissan exclusively. I had no warning lights on prior to the accident occurring.
LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS PUTTING UP BARRIERS TO MY RECALL REPAIR. ON 2 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, I WAS TOLD THAT 'WE DON'T DO RECALL REPAIRS ON THE WEEKEND'. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEIR LABOR COSTS ON THE WEEKEND ARE MY PROBLEM. I CALLED ON A MONDAY MORNING WHEN I WAS ON VACATION FROM WORK. NOT ONLY COULD THE SERVICE MANAGER NOT C…

LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS PUTTING UP BARRIERS TO MY RECALL REPAIR. ON 2 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, I WAS TOLD THAT 'WE DON'T DO RECALL REPAIRS ON THE WEEKEND'. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEIR LABOR COSTS ON THE WEEKEND ARE MY PROBLEM. I CALLED ON A MONDAY MORNING WHEN I WAS ON VACATION FROM WORK. NOT ONLY COULD THE SERVICE MANAGER NOT CONFIRM FOR ME WHETHER THEY HAD THE NECESSARY PARTS ON HAND TO REPAIR MY RECALL...SHE ALSO SAID THEY ONLY DO IT BY APPOINTMENT AND NEED 1 WEEKS NOTICE!! SO I AM BEING EXPECTED TO BRING MY CAR IN TWICE (ONCE FOR THEM TO 'LOOK AT IT AND CONFIRM I'M ON THE RECALL LIST, AND A 2ND TIME TO GET THE REPAIR DONE). HOW IS IT THAT THE MANUFACTURER MAKES A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT, YET I AM EXPECTED TO JUMP THROUGH ALL THESE HOOPS, TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK (VACATION TIME) TO MEET ALL OF THEIR TERMS OF FIXING A MISTAKE THAT NISSAN MADE. BUT HEY, THEY WERE SURE TO GET THOSE NOTICES MAILED OUT SUPER FAST, TO GIVE ME THE IMPRESSION THEY CARED ABOUT MY SPOUSES LIFE/DEATH RISK EVERY DAY WHEN SHE DRIVES A FLAWED PRODUCT TO/FROM WORK. SO UNACCOMMODATING AND ARROGANT OF NISSAN TO PUT THEIR CUSTOMERS THROUGH THIS GAUNTLET.

TAKATA INFLATORS, THIS COMPLAINT MAY BE RELATED TO THE PREVIOUS RECALLS BUT I AM NOT AN EXPERT.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2017.5 NISSAN MURANO OCT 14 2017 ONE WEEK LATER THE SRS LIGHT COMES LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND STAYS ON. AFTER THREE TRIPS BACK AND MULTIPLE PARTS REPLACED INCLUDING SENSOR FOR SEATBELT CONNECTOR THAT WAS NOT ATTACHED PROPERLY AND THE REPLACEMENT OF THE SRS SYSTEM. TODAY 97 DAYS LATER I WAS TOLD BY MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INDEED DEFECTIVE AT TIME OF PURCHASE. THE FACTORY HAD NOT CONNECTED THE HARNESS THAT CONNECTS TO THE AIRBAGS WHICH WAS CAUSING MY SRS LIGHT TO COME ON CONTINUOUSLY. I AM VERY SAD AND UPSET THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AND I AM IN PROCESS OF FILING A CLAIM WITH THE NISSAN CORPORATION CONSUMER DEPARTMENT FOR A BUY BACK OF MY VEHICLE.
