SOMETIME BETWEEN 3-6 MONTHS AGO, I NOTICED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2007 NISSAN ROGUE. I TOOK THE CAR TO CORAL SPRINGS NISSAN (CORAL SPRINGS, BROWARD COUNTY, FL), WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM, IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE REPAIRED BECAUSE I FOUND ONLINE VIA SAFERCAR.GOV AND/OR NISSAN'S WEBSITE THAT THERE WERE RECALLS FOR THE TWO (2) ISSUES THAT I WAS HAVING. WHEN I TOOK IT TO CORAL SPRINGS NISSAN, THEY TOLD ME THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR AND THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. THEY WANTED APPROXIMATELY $150 TO "LOOK AT" THE CAR. I LEFT AND RETURNED HOME AND CALLED FORT LAUDERDALE NISSAN (FORT LAUDERDALE, BROWARD COUNTY, FL) AND PERFORMANCE NISSAN (POMPANO BEACH, BROWARD COUNTY, FL) AND EXPLAINED THE SAME THING TO BOTH DEALERSHIPS THAT BOTH THE AIR BAG AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS WERE ON AND THERE WERE RECALLS FOR BOTH ON MY CAR. I PROVIDED OVER THE PHONE THE VIN # FOR MY VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR AND THAT IT WOULD BE VARIOUS AMOUNTS TO "LOOK AT" THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS RECENTLY IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DID NOT. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO PERFORMANCE NISSAN TO HAVE IT FIXED, I INFORMED THEM OF THE ISSUE I WAS HAVING WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT AND TRY AND PUT IT THROUGH THE INSURANCE CLAIM. THE INSURANCE COMPANY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR BECAUSE IT WAS "A PREEXISTING CONDITION". I THEN LEARNED THROUGH NISSAN (CORPORATE) THAT APPARENTLY THE RECALL WAS "FIXED" IN JULY 2012 AT PERFORMANCE NISSAN. CLEARLY, THE ISSUE WAS NOT FIXED BECAUSE SOMETIME BETWEEN 3-6 MONTHS AGO, THE AIR BAG AND TIRE PRESSURE LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DID. *TR
