The front passenger side door was closed from the outside while the vehicle was at a stop. When the door latched all side airbags (curtain and in seat) deployed. There was no collision. There was minor damage to the front passenger side door, which appeared to be a "door ding" that had occurred approximately 8 weeks prior to the incident involving the airbags. It was purely cosmetic no repair was sought. Car was towed to dealer after air bags deployed.

Takata recall. The air bags deployed for no apparent reason at all while my 25yr old daughter was driving my 2013 Nissan Rogue on the highway home from a charity event. When the air bags deployed, it caused my daughter to lose control and hit the guard rails. My daughter suffered severe head trauma, bleeding and bruises, injury to her eye, scratches and burns from whatever the substance was in the air bags. She spent the day in the hospital with numerous tests done, had some surgical procedures done, on medications. Some of her bruises resulted in swellings and more bruises. She still has a long way to go and is still under the doctors' care. Thank god she's alive but my truck was a total loss. My daughter's self-esteem is low because she's having a hard time dealing with the pain, scars and bruises. Her slow recovery is still affecting her loss from work and inconvenience of even getting to work because the insurance companyhas deemed my truck a total loss. My daughter is still undergoing more medical treatment and I'm trying to concentrate on getting well and work about the medical bills later. She still has constant headaches daily because of her head injuries and now light is affecting her which cannot be controlled everywhere she goes. As a mother, I hate to see my daughter in this pain every day, I feel helpless. I want my daughter to have a bright future, but she's always sad or crying because of the pain. This is not fair.

On Saturday, May 16th heading on the 91 East by bellflower, ca. Frwy I was driving and when a sudden stop I found it hard to make a stop because the brake felt as if it sunk in. I unfortunately hit a truck in front of me. The vehicle did not receive any damage but my Nissan 2013 Rogue did. I took pictures to show the damage. At the time of the accident, I was very concerned because the air bags did not deploy. The vehicle did receive a front impact but the air bags had no reaction to the hit. At the time of the accident I rode with my 3 children ages, 18, 15 and 11 and my fianc. Prior to this happening I took the vehicle to get it's maintenance and after this happening I was sure that the vehicle felt very different. It was almost as if it would accelerate and the brakes kept sinking in with having a delay in making a full stop. The vehicle is currently in a body shop through my insurance and I do not recall the mileage? this is very concerning and has been ever since receiving the recall letter regarding the possible electrical problem that might set a fire. Please advise/help. Thank you!
