I RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FROM NISSAN A FEW MONTHS BACK (I BELIEVE IT WAS IN AUGUST 2017) LETTING ME KNOW ABOUT A RECALL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG FOR MY 2008 NISSAN VERSA. I CALLED THE NISSAN DEALER EMPIRE NISSAN ONTARIO, CA (909) 906-7424. I WAS THE PARTS WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SPRING 2018. I ASKED SHOULD I STILL BE DRIVING MY CAR, IS IT SAFE? AT THAT TIME THE DEALER TOLD ME TO CALL NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HEADQUARTER, THERE WAS NOTHING HE DO OR SAY ABOUT MY CAR AND THE RECALL. I TRIED SEVERAL TIME TO CALL THE HEADQUARTERS AND I HAVE BEEN PUT ON HOLD FOR LONG PERIOD OF TIME TO WHERE I HAD TO HANG UP. I STILL HAVE NO ANSWER ON IS IT SAFE FOR MY FAMILY OR MYSELF TO BE DRIVING OUR CAR? THANK YOU [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED NOTICE ABOUT THE RECALL EARLIER THIS YEAR I IMMEDIATELY CALLED A DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE OUT OF PARTS AND THAT THEY WERE ONLY GETTING ONE OR TWO IN A MONTH FROM NISSAN. THEY TOLD ME TO CALL BACK IN JUNE OR JULY BECAUSE THAT IS WHEN THEY WERE EXPECTING REGULAR SHIPMENTS OF THE PART. I CALLED DURING THIS TIME FRAME AND THEY STILL DID NOT HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE. NOW I'VE RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THEY WON'T HAVE ANY PARTS UNTIL SPRING OF 2018. I'M VERY CONCERNED AND CONFUSED. THIS SOUNDS LIKE A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND EVERY MAILING I RECEIVE SAYS HAVE IT FIXED IMMEDIATELY BUT THEN I'M TOLD THAT THERE ISN'T A POSSIBILITY TO FIX IT UNTIL SOMETIME IN THE SPRING OF NEXT YEAR?!?!

TAKATA RECALL MY 18 YEAR DAUGHTER'S CAR WAS RECALLED FOR A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. WE BROUGHT IT O THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE A MINIMUM OF 8 MONTHS VERY THE DEFECT TO BE CORRECTED. A "LOANER CAR" WAS GIVEN TO US. THE PROBLEM IS MY DAUGHTER IS 18 AND THE DEALER WON'T LET HER DRIVE THE LOANER. SHE IS A FULL TIME COLLEGE STUDENT AND WORKS 2 JOBS. IT'S IMPERATIVE THAT SHE HAS A CAR. IF IT WAS ONLY GOING TO TAKE A FEW WEEKS OR EVEN A MONTH BEFORE THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED WE WOULD MAKE THE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS FOR HER. 8 MONTHS OR VERY POSSIBLY LONGER IS WAY TO LONG AND IS GOING TO PUT AN UNDUE BURDEN TO OUR FAMILY. AFTER CONTACTING NISSAN CORP. THEY HAVEN'T YET GIVEN ME A SOLUTION TO THIS DILEMMA. I BELIEVE THAT IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO CORRECT A WRONG CAUSED BY THEIR FAULTY WORKMANSHIP. I'M ASKING YOU AS A TAX PAYER TO PLEASE STEP IN AND MEDIATE THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD MAKE ME "WHOLE". MYSELF NOR MY FAMILY SHOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS ADDED STRESS CAUSED BY THE MANUFACTURER'S MISTAKE. I ASKED THEM TO REPLACE MY DAUGHTER'S CAR OR AT THE VERY LEAST BUY THIS CAR BACK FROM ME.
