TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER OVER 6 MONTHS AGO STATING THAT THE AIRBAG CAN DEPLOY ABNORMALLY CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. I HAVE CONTACTED AUTONATION NISSAN PEMBROKE PINES ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS REQUESTING A RENTAL OR THAT THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG BE REMOVED AS I CARRY PEOPLE IN MY CAR EVERYDAY. EACH TIME I CALL I'M GIVEN EXCUSES. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG REMOVED IMMEDIATELY, ITS BETTER TO NOT HAVE ONE THAN ONE THAT CAN KILL YOU EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT DRIVING. THE RECALL SAID IT CAN DEPLOY SIMPLY BASED ON HUMIDITY.

"TAKATA RECALL" IN JUNE 2016, WE RECEIVED A LETTER THE MAIN NISSAN HEADQUARTERS TELLING US THAT OUR 2007 VERSA HAD A VERY BAD AIR BAG PROBLEM. THE LETTER SAID THAT IN SEPT. OF 2016 ALL DEALERS WOULD RECEIVE THE NECESSARY PARTS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THE LETTER ALSO STATED THAT THE DEALER WOULD LET US KNOW BY LETTER AND SO WOULD THE NISSAN HEADQUARTERS. THE LETTER ALSO STATED THAT YOU SHOULDN'T LET ANY PERSON SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.BECAUSE THE PERSON COULD BE HARMED OR KILLED. SO WE WAITED UNTIL SEPT. 2016 FOR SOME NEWS BUT NONE CAME. AT THE END OF SEPT., 2016 I DROVE TO WESLEY CHAPEL NISSAN, IN WESLEY CHAPEL, FL TO SPEAK TO THE SERVICE MANAGER, BRANDON MALATINO. HE TOLD ME THE PARTS HAD NOT COME IN. SO 2 MORE MONTHS WENT BY AND WE HADN'T HEARD FROM THE NISSAN PEOPLE. I TOOK ANOTHER TRIP TO WESLEY CHAPEL NISSAN TO SPEAK WITH BRANDON MALATINO . HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAD RECEIVED AN E-MAIL SAYING THAT THE PARTS WOULD BE IN SOME TIME IN DEC. AFTER THIS I CALLED THE NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND INQUIRED ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON. THEY H AD CHANGED AIR BAG MANUFACTURES AND THE PARTS WOULD BE OUT IN THE NEAR FUTURE. NOT HEARING ANYTHING BY THE END OF DEC. I TOOK ANOTHER TRIP TO WESLEY CHAPEL NISSAN.( BRANDON MALATINO WOULD NOT ANSWER EITHER ONE OF THE 2 PHONE NUMBERS THAT HE GAVE ME) AND SPOKE TO HIM AGAIN. SAME STORY...NO PARTS, BUT NEXT TIME E-MAIL ME. LATE IN JAN., 2017 I DID JUST THAT AND HE DIDN'T RESPOND TO MY E-MAIL. SO, I CALLED THE NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AGAIN. THIS TIME I ADMIT I WAS A TAD ANGRY. THE LADY ON THE PHONE REITERATED THE SAME STORY THAT I HEARD BEFORE AND THAT IS WE ARE CHANGING MANUFACTURERS (ON WHAT PLANET ARE THESE PARTS BEING MADE?) HOWEVER, SHE ASSURED ME THAT IN MARCH 2017, THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. AS A PERSON NOT GULLIBLE I FEEL LIKE I AM BEING SANDBAGGED IN THIS DEAL. CASE #25346691.

THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME OF A BROKEN MID PIPE ON THE MUFFLER. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE WERE TOLD THAT IT IS RELATED TO SALT ON THE ROADS. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE PERSISTENT ACROSS NISSAN VERSAS IN THE LATE 2000 MODELS (ESPECIALLY 2009). THERE IS A LOUD ROARING NOISE FROM THE MUFFLER AND A STRONG GASEOUS SMELL INSIDE WHEN THE ENGINE IS ON AND NO OTHER HEATING/COOLING FUNCTIONS ARE TURNED ON.

POWER TRAIN
THIS NISSAN VEHICLE'S CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPLACED. THAT TRANSMISSION FAILED AGAIN IN LESS THAN SIX MONTHS AND BECAUSE IT WAS OUTSIDE THE REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION'S WARRANTY, THE DEALER NOR NISSAN WILL REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. I DON'T WANT TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FOR A THIRD TIME WITH WHAT APPEARS TO BE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT THAT WILL LIKELY FAIL AGAIN AND IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NISSAN WILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR.

I HAVE A COMPLAINT DUE TO THE FACT THAT NISSAN NEVER NOTIFIED ME OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ISSUE PER THE VIN NUMBER SUBMITTED PER THE NHTSA WEBSITE. MY VIN IS [XXX] AND NISSAN WAS FULLY AWARE OF HOW TO CONTACT ME DUE TO I'VE RECENTLY SATISFIED THE LOAN WHICH WAS FINANCED ON THE VEHICLE DIRECTLY FOR NISSAN. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHETHER OR NOT I WILL IN FACT BE NOTIFIED ONCE NISSAN DOES HAVE A REMEDY PER THE RECALL INFORMATION NOTED RELATED TO THE TAKATA AIRBAG. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
