Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While turning on an off ramp the steering gave out and locked, causing the car to drive directly into the guard rail. Yes the car was moving but stealthily as I slowed down to make the turn. The car was thrown from the left guard rail to the right side causing extensive damage and no airbag deployed in the event of this crash. The car was no longer able to move from such a drastic accident and yet it was not enough for the airbags to even attempt to save our lives. There were kids in the car! Thank the heavens we were able to get out of the wreck alive. …”
NHTSA complaint #11341553, filed 2020-07, 82,000 miles“On 03/06/2025 my car got into an accident with another vehicle the whole pumper was damaged yet the air bags didn’t go off, and my child in the back seat with his booster, that the seat belt was supposed to hold the seat, the whole booster seat came off”
NHTSA complaint #11646881, filed 2025-03“My car was in a collision and it is a total loss. The accident was a head collision on with a parked car, the airbags to not deploy during the accident. This is a safety issue I am very concerned about due to the damage to the car.”
NHTSA complaint #11457298, filed 2022-03“My side airbags deployed unexpectedly and without impact while riving down the street. I was in my neighborhood, close to my home, and suddenly the passenger side airbags deployed. The car shut down immediately. There is no impact to the side of the car and no dents (pics attached) I have a malfunction error on my screen. I don't know why this happened. My safety was at risk because if I was on the highway and this happened, it would've caused an accident. Also, I have just dropped off my child. If this happened 15mins sooner she would've been injured.”
NHTSA complaint #11693131, filed 2025-10“This is not about an accident. The passenger side air bag in this car does not always come on when I sit in the seat. I am a small adult, around 94 pounds. The dealership did all they could. I did some research and found that complaints have been made to Nissan about this issue since 2013. When I called Nissan consumer relations I was told that there was nothing that they could do for me. The service manager at the dealership expected that they would send an engineer to fix it.”
