| Description of the problem | I had this car for 4 days a 2007 nissan 350z touring edition. Driving to work on the morning of sept, 1st 2007 the passenger side airbag (from headliner, and side of seat.) explode. I take it to gwinnett place nissan and they said they'll have nna come out and look for it, they give us a rental, takes them a week for someone to look under there and tell me a rock flew under my undercarriage and hit the airbag module sensor and made both side curtain airbags deploy. There is no damage to the side of my vehicle. And they made us pay $250 for the car rental. Why would nissan design a car this way? |
