AIR BAGS
"TAKATA RECALL" TOOK IN FOR SERVICE/REPAIR AND NOW WARNING LIGHT IS ON. HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL NOTICES TO BRING CAR INTO A DEALER TO HAVE THE RECALL FIXED REGARDING THE TAKATA AIRBAGS. I HAVE HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANY ISSUES UP UNTIL BRINGING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR FOR THE RECALL ON THE TAKATA AIRBAGS. UPON TAKING CAR TO STEVENS CREEK NISSAN WORKORDER 170159 JULY 11, 2018, MY CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME AFTER WHAT WAS NOTED ON THE WORK ORDER AS REMOVE AND REPLACE AIR BAG INFLATOR, CAMPAIGN PM685 VERSA HATCHBACK. MY CAR IS A 4 DOOR SEDAN, NOT A HATCHBACK. UPON DRIVING OFF WITH MY CAR THE WARNING LIGHT "AIRBAG" IS NO FLASHING AND WILL NOT GO OFF. THIS INDICATES SOMETHING WAS NOT DONE CORRECTLY AND NOW NISSAN REFUSES TO CORRECT THEIR ERROR UNLESS I PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A DIEANOSTIC PLUS REPAIR FEES AND LABOR. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES WHATSOEVER WITH MY CAR UNTIL TAKING IT INTO STEVENS CREEK NISSAN TO HAVE A RECALL FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAGS ADDRESSED. BEFORE I SEEK ANY LEGAL ACTION I WANTED TO REACH OUT TO YOU FOR SOME ASSISTANCE. HOW SAFE AM I DRIVING MY CAR WITH THIS WARNING LIGHT "AIRBAG" ? WHY WOULD A RECALL ON THE TAKATA AIRBAGS CAUSE A ISSUE AFTER THEY WERE ADDRESSED/FIXED BY NISSAN STEVENS CREEK? AM I TO BE KILLED ON THE ROAD OR WORSE BEFORE NISSAN/TAKATA WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR A RECALL, FIX, ERROR?

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION PROBLEM: I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW FOR MY DAUGHTER JULY 2013. LAST YEAR IT STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS SHIFTING GEARS. THIS YEAR THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE. WE RECEIVED A RECALL CARD IN THE MAIL STATING TO BRING IT IN TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE RECALL WAS ONLY FOR REPROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER. AFTER BRINGING IT IN, THE CAR SHUT DOWN ON HER AS SHE WAS DRIVING HOME. I'M THANKFUL WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN. I CALLED NISSAN'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO COMPLAIN. A REPRESENTATIVE NAMED PATRICK (615) 725-7359 WAS ASSIGNED MY COMPLAINT.. HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I STILL HAVE A YEAR LEFT TO PAY FOR THE CAR. NISSAN DEALERSHIP CHARGED $2990 TO FIX THE CAR. I HAVE READ SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE CARS AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NOTHING IS BEING DONE!!

ENGINE
ON 7/24/18 WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN VERSA ON NORTH I-15 NEAR CHARLESTON BLVD IN CONSTRUCTION STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, I HAD SLOWED TO A STOP BASED ON TRAFFIC. AS THE TRAFFIC BEGAN TO MOVE, I TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND CAR SPUTTERED, BUT MOVED AND THEN AFTET DRIVING A QUARTER OF A MILE AT A SPEED OF 25 MPH, THE CAR JUST STOPPED WHILE IN DRIVE. ALL DSAHBOARDS LIGHTS AND ENGINE INDICATION CAME ON. LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME SCREECHED TO STOP. I IMMEDIATELY PUT ON HAZARDS AND PULLED EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PUT CAR IN PARK. I TRIED TO RESTART CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START. AFTER FIVE MINUTES, THE CAR STARTED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I ADVISED MY DAUGHTER AND TOLD HER I WOULD PUT CAR IN SHOP. ON 7/26/18, I TOOK CAR TO AUTO CARE FOR ASSESSMENT. MY VEHICLE HAD ONLY 31,290 MILES ON IT. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BUT OUT OF CONCERN, I HAD A 30,000 MILE SERVICE DONE ON CAR. ON 8/3/18, I WAS ADVISED BY ANOTHER DRIVER THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I WENT HOME AND MY DAUGHTER SAW THAT THE LIGHTS WERE OUT ALSO. I CHECKED AS SHE BRAKED AND NO LIGHTS. I DROVE ON HAZARDS TO AUTO REPAIR AND THEY CHECKED VEHICLE AND LIGHTS WORKED. THEY STATED MAYBE AN ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE BUT RETURN IF LIGHTS GO OUT AGAIN. FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN MARCH OF 2014, I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO NISSAN FOR LACK OF POWER, SPUTTERING AT STOPS AND INTERMITTENT STALLS. NISSAN REPLACED OXYGEN SENSOR A YEAR AGO WHEN CAR STOPPED WHILE DRIVING AND ADVISED THAT IT'S A SMALL CAR SO WON'T HAVE A LOT OF POWER. ON 8/23/18, I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM NISSAN REGARDING SUDDEN STOPS AND TO BRING CAR TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE OR HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME WHEN I DRIVE. THE CAR STUTTERS AT STOP AND HESITATION IS CONSTANT. I'M NOT SURE NISSAN CAN REPAIR THIS ISSUE.
