Description of the problem	2013 nissan altima recall notice malfunction hood release which could cause a collision. Well happened to my daughter on august 9th, who had my permission to drive my car she by the way is 28. I was never notified of this recall, however my friend that leased the same vehicle two months prior at the same dealership, was notified. My daughter was just getting onto the expressway doing approx. 20 mph if that when the hood of my vehicle "released" and blew up against the windshield to where she could not see at all. Luckily god was with her and she was able to pull over safely. My vehicle is still at a nissan dealership as of today, august 26th, collision shop still sitting in the same spot that it was towed to. Over 6,000. 00 in damages for a recall that i should have been notified and nissan should be praying and feeling blessed that this horrific accident and believe me it was horrifying to see that people were not killed, shame on nissan corporation for me not receiving the recall notice, shame on nissan for not figuring out when my car was in for service that my vin number showed nothing or it was ignored, recall notices are connected automatically to any numbers whether car, appliance, car seats, etc., come on we are living in 2015. Shame on nissan that this is not important to them to help me. I have dates and records of communication and am trying to reach out and try to make this public however i am at a stand still and need advice and help, thank you!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
