problem #1

Dec 062001

Xterra 4WD 6-cyl

  • miles
I rear-ended a Ford F-350 at approx 30 mph. Neither of my airbags deployed. I have called peterson's body shop, on a daily basis, where my vehicle is being repaired. The body shop guy said there was a "short" in the wiring harness which made the check light not work and the airbags not deploy. I feel that no one will take responsibility for the resulting failure of my airbags because I was not injured. I have contacted Nissan. I spoke with [xxx], my file # is [xxx] at 1-800-nissan1. I have also contacted [xxx] dahle Nissan of sandy, where I leased the vehicle. Also there isn't a part number on the faulty wiring harness that has delayed the repair of my vehicle from the accident on December 6,2001. I thank you for any information you can give me. Sincerely, [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
