| Description of the problem | i have received a recall on my cars airbags. I have attempted twice to take my car in to have this recall taking care of. The first time, they ( heritage nissan in rome, ga) did not have the part. That was frustrating enough. Nissan issued a recall but didn't have the part to fix it. Today i took my car back to heritage nissan again today to have this recall fixed. I was told by [xxx] "they didn't have time" really? You didn't have time to fix a safety recall on my car. I called the nissan corporation and was told to simply take it to another dealership. I don't have all day to be running around trying to find someone to fix my car. I did not buy my car at heritage nissan ( bet you can't guess why) but it is closer to my house. Nissan recommended pye nissan in dalton. I would have to drive an hour from there to have it fixed. This is ridiculous. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
