2011 Nissan ALTIMA Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	865943
Internal NHTSA #	10409091
Manufacurer	NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2011
File date	23/01/11
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle was backed into at approximately 0-5mph at 2,100 miles while legally parked. Since then, neither south point nissan of austin tx or town north nissan of austin tx have been able to explain why my srs airbag light comes on. 12+ repair attempts, almost 3 months in service (two days from now it'll have been in for a whole month this time alone) insurance carrier blames nissan for veh. Defect, nissan blames collision. I have full coverage and extended warranty you'd think somebody here would make me whole. Nissan tech's are literally "throwing parts" at the car (module, sensor, etc) with no conclusive diagnosis in 6 months and now they've torn my dashboard and car apart to replace all of the srs wiring -- but said wiring harness is on "back order" with no eta. Lemon law apparently doesn't cover me and attorneys wont touch it because of stupid inconsequently parking lot collision which does not explain suspected major component failure or suspected wiring issues safely deep inside the car/dashboard. Please explain how getting backed into destroyed wiring inside the car. This is a serious electrical/safety defect.
