I went to the Nissan dealer for the airbag recall. Drop off my car and I ask the dealer if there's a car for me they said no loaner car.I leave the car there so I used uber because I need tp drop of my kids in the school. After 3 hours they called me they said car is ready to pick up so I went back there to pick up the car. But I noticed the airbag sign still flashing I asked them why the airbag still flashing they said they fix it already and I told them still flashing. I'm scared to drive the car because im using this car everyday and I have 3 kids my passenger. They said there's nothing they can do they want me to leave the car 1 day or more 1 day so that they can diagnose the. I told them if that so I need a loaner car but they said there's no loaner car. I don't have a choice I need my car this my only transportation everyday.until now still flashing the airbag there's no second or minute im really scared to use this car. Why they cant fix the airbag. No loaner car but its said in the letter its free loaner and towing. Please help me to fix this problem.,

Nissan vehicle was on a main city road in motion and then slowing down to traffics change in speed when rear ended. As soon as vehicle was rear ended, brakes were pressed to prevent further collisions with vehicles up forward. My vehicle seatbelts failed to restrain driver and all passengers wearing them during a collision. Seat belts didn't retract unless brakes were slammed. Two passengers in the back were children. One child had a convertible car seat, saving them and fully restraining them to seat. The second child was in a booster seat and whiplashed completely forward and back nearly hitting head behind drivers seat. The driver locked their arms in place to prevent hitting the steering wheel. The front passenger, myself, hit the area of the glove compartment and suffered a small but deep gash on the forehead. This required sutures to close womb up. No air bags deployed when impact to vehicle was made. Airbags were replaced when recall to vehicle airbags were made in the past, 2017. Vehicle has not been repaired.

I took my car to a local Nissan dealership for an airbag recall on the driver side and after the recall was supposedly done because after this I'm not even positive they worked on my car for that recall. After the recall was done now the car horn in my steering wheel is not working when it was working before. The Nissan advisor said that they can't fix it and the reason is because is an old car. They want me to pay almost 700 hundred dollars for them to fix what they ruined. Now I have no car horn. This is a safety hazard for anyone on the road. A car horn works to advice other drivers of any hazard. From this happening to me I now think that they didn't do anything in regards to airbag recalls and that I just took my car just for them to scam me so I can pay for a part that was working and that they ruined. The Nissan I went too is naples Nissan in naples, Florida. I also have called Nissan Consumer Affairs and they haven't done anything in this matter I have two claim numbers already I have called twice and there not doing anything about this matter.
