Model Year	2012
File date	04/07/17
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I was hit from behind while completely stopped to make a left hand turn on a city street. The car that hit me, a 2006 nissan altima, was travelling, i believe, between 45-50 mph. Both vehicles were totaled. The airbag in my 2012 nissan frontier did not deploy. I don't believe that is normal, but nissan will not comment. Within a week of the accident, i received a recall notification from nissan regarding the airbag control unit not being calibrated properly. I find it strange that nissan will not comment on non-deployment of the airbag, yet sends me a recall notice for an out of calibration airbag control unit.
