| Description of the problem | Recently driving my nissan 350z along a highway, the airbags for no reason, deployed on their own. It was sheer luck that i wasn't killed. You would think nissan would take responsibility for this problem with their airbags, but no! Nissan won't fix the car until i sign a legal release letter so they can't be sued. *jb |
