“Takata recall...have not received any other info other than 'match found', along with the statement that it should be fixed as soon as possible. Should I take it to a Nissan dealer; or wait to hear something from someone? Usually the responses I have received state not to email back to them.”

NHTSA complaint #11044758, filed 2017-11

“Involved in a frontal crash where somebody made a left hand turn in front of me. I was going 40 straight on the road. Slammed on my breaks but still hit the turning car. The whole front crumped so the car was totaled but the air bags didn't deploy.”
