“I hit a deer on july 5th 2014. My front bumper pushed in on my driver side wheel. Cracked my grill. Broke out a head light on driver side. Bent the driver fender and drivers door and my airbag did not deploy. A week and a half later my airbag light comes on..... I carried it to Nissan and they said it was not wreck related. Spoke with my insurance company and was told that this is a common issue with Nissan Armada. I need a reliable vehicle and I cant take the chance of traveling with hazardous restraints.. I currently have a reject sticker and I do not feel responsible for repairs.”
NHTSA complaint #10652576, filed 2014-11, 160,000 miles“The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Armada. The contact stated a vdc warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer for a diagnostic test. The dealer stated that the brake sensor caused the vdc light to illuminate. The dealer did not have the parts to remedy the brake sensors; therefore, the dealer referred the contact to another dealer. The second dealer also preferred a diagnostic test be performed. The dealer stated the brake booster caused the vdc light to illuminate. The dealer replaced the brake booster but the repair did not remedy the failure. …”
