AIR BAGS

 Side airbags deployed while going over a bump/hitting a pothole during a turn-no wheels left the ground and passenger knocked unconcious by deployment. see this problem mentioned in forums yet no recall and dealers unable to assess problem without specialist to check computer data. perhaps sensors too sensitive to bumpy turns/maybe defective-don't know.

 (1) i have experienced the same problem with the seatbelts in the back seat of my 2011 nissan titan. they tighten up on the occupants and i have to stop my truck in order to release them, but then they tighten up again. a switch for adults or children may fix the problem. (2) as well, the front floor mats that were installed at the dealer malfunctioned. the driver's floor mat had one hole for restraint and it should have had two holes. the floor mat caught up in the accelerator at a speed of approximately 50 kph and the engine revved wide open. i had to immediately put the truck in neutral and shut it off. that left me with no power steering and i was fortunate enough to get the truck to the side of the highway and remedy the problem. the dealership has since replaced the front floor mats and the probem is solved. owners of the nissan titans should make sure that the proper floor mats are installed in their trucks prior to driving them. (3) these trucks should not be delivered with a p tire on them. at the very least they should have an lt tire. i have had three flat tires on my truck in 5 months and it is not used on construction sites at all.

 On 09/07/2010, i took my 2006 nissan titan to bill collins nissan, 4142 bardstown rd. louisville, ky. 40218 for a safety recall on the fuel tank. owner notification r1010 10v-074. the tank was removed from the truck and the sending unit was replaced. at the time, the vehicle had 9976 miles on it. on 07/10/2011, approximately ten months later, the vehicle had 10826 mile on it. i had only driven this vehicle 850 miles since the tank was removed. on this date while driving 65 mph, i heard the sound of something that made one tap under the floor board of the truck. the interior of the truck immediately filled with the smell of gasoline. at that moment the engine lost all power. i was forced to pull off onto the shoulder of the road. when we exited the truck, we noticed that there was a large pool of gasoline on the ground that came from the top of the tank. i was unable to locate the problem on my own because of the traffic passing me at seventy plus mph. i assumed the gas line had become disconnected from the tank, because when i tried to restart the engine, it started pumping gasoline from the top of the tank. i called a towing service to have the vehicle towed to a safe location where i could verify the problem safely. the hose line was disconnected from the tank. after reconnecting the line to the tank, the vehicle now runs properly. i feel that the person that did the recall work didn't snap the hose connection onto the tank securly. i was told by the service manager at bill collins nissan that it would have been impossible for the truck to even have started if the fitting wasn't attached securly, because it was a pressureized system and the computer would not have allowed the enging to start he refused to pay my towing bill of $85.00, because he said, you should have had it towed here to the dealership. that way we could have checked to see if it was something we did wrong. needless to say, we could have been killed because the hose was improperly connected.
SEAT BELTS
01/11/20112010
 The rear seatbelts on my 2011 nissan titan crew cab lock up while there is passengers in the rear seat. they are causing them to become so uncomfortable that i have to stop and let them reset the belts, unbuckling and relatching. this works for a few minutes and the procedure starts all over again. the nissan dealer said they cannot repair this problem. the dealer said this is for child seat restraints. i'm carrying adults, not children and these adults are very uncomfortable to continue on with this issue.
