Takata recall. We have a Nissan Versa 2008 and we received 2 letters about the takata recall. We just moved to New Jersey about 3 months ago. My boyfriend daniil went to the Nissan dealership in Edison and they refused him a rental car because he is not 21 years old. We are 20. I thought that's not possible, it's a big safety issue, they can't just refuse it because we're not 21. What does age have to do with our safety" the following morning, me and my boyfriend drove to the route 33 Nissan in hamilton, NJ. A lady named mckayla did the paperwork for us, everything was set and then she said "oh wait you're not 21 yet, I can't loan you a car." She said to call the service assist line to further assist us. So we called the line, and turns out the guy that we were supposed to talk to doesn't work on the weekends. So if the airbags would've went off during the weekend and we died, then what? I called mckayla on Monday and she told us if we could find a company that would rent us the car, Nissan would pay for it. So I called hertz in New York since their legal age to rent a car is 18, and they agreed to rent us a car but Nissan refused to pay for it since it was out of state. If Nissan screwed up with these recalls, they need to take responsibility for their actions and pay the necessary for the inconvenience. We went back to the route 33 Nissan dealership and went to the supervisor's office to speak to him. He said there's nothing he can do for us because we're not 21. Last time I checked, you didn't have to be 21 to own a Nissan. Last time I checked, there was nowhere in the paperwork when buying a Nissan that states: "in the case of a recall, if you're not 21 and over you will be leased a loaner car till we fix your car" so then why is this such an issue" I'm so scared that on our way to work or on our way home the air bags will go off and we will die.

Takata airbags: I have taken my vehicle in twice for the same recall. First time, I was told a temporary part was put in until the permanent one came from the manufacturer (that was earlier this year), then I received a call from this same dealership that the permanent part was in. So I took it back in July for it to be installed and yet, that part has been recalled also. The dealership tells me "they are waiting on the manufacturer for the replacement part that will finally fix this issue with the takata inflator airbag issue. Meanwhile and as I wait, I am putting myself in danger driving the car and those who ride with me. This inflator issue needs to be fixed and soon! I need help getting the proper resolution that will remedy this situation. The manufacturer need to speed up the process and make this a priority to get resolved as I have two Nissan Versa's and both have the same takata inflator issues under the recall. My other car is a 2010 also needing the permanent part to fix it's inflator issue.

Takata inflators. Recall instructions include driving car to dealer so they can see it. This seems counterintuitive since the airbags can kill people.

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.
