yet the air bags did not deploy I was very concerned yet was told air bags were in the vehicle & appeared to be not a problem orthe light would not go on upon starting vehicle I also made several inquires to nissan dealer consumer affairs etc... Etc... & My insurer & was told no like issues &/or recalls or safety issues & my fears were not warranted well on 2 other front end crashes I believe due to other safety issues acceleration steering loss & breaking issues again with major damage to front end radiator destroyed chassy bent /cracked the vehicle airbags failed to deploy nor did the seat belts lock again I in 1998 did again make numerous inquiries & found airbag systems had placed defective switches in vehicles but failed to have a tracking system to id the vehicles &/or manufacturers whom had placed these switches that made it appear as the air bags were indeed functioning when they were turned off & that nhtsa stated it was not there job to give him documents showing vehicles with these faulty switches which was an endangerment to owners&/repair facilities who would be unaware the airbags were turned off as the light showing proper abs function I cant believe the gross disregard I also understand that these modifications did not have to be reported unless done so voluntarily to dmv/or nhtsa until sometime in 2002/3/4 so putting your vin # in would not show a consumer their airbags were in fact deactivated even if voluntary documents were submit. *Tr
