| Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2008 nissan xterra. He received recall notice # 08v690000 for the air bags: frontal. A technician stated that because ownership changed they would not be able to repair the vehicle for six weeks. A delay in having the vehicle repaired has increased his risk if the air bags fail to deploy. He attempted to schedule an appointment with another dealer; however, they are too far away and his medical condition makes it difficult to travel. The manufacturer has not provided him with any assistance. The failure and current mileages were 30,000. |
