I thought this only affected Maxima's and the Cube?

[Towncivilian]

I thought so too, it doesn't.

 

The links apparently died, I'll mirror them later.

*POOF*

 

I am now tempted to stuff a QX4 airbag inside an old non-functioning appliance and blow it up.

So is this something we could just pop into a dealer and get fixed like the belts?

[Towncivilian]

Recalls are always free.

Holy poop stains!

 

Well, according to the "Defect Notice" my Pathy (manu'd in May 2001) isn't involved. So I guess I don't have to worry about explosive metal shards striking my passenger during an accident with airbag deployment? Always worries me when a recall is super close to what I own, but doesn't include it.

 

Think I'll swing by the local stealership and have them check it out.

The dealer probably doesn't have any info about this yet. Wait a while for some recall TSB to appear, perhaps.

 

Mine is 10/00 so it's pretty far away, I doubt it'll be extended to apply to my Pathfinder.

Thanks, and that definitely applies to my Pathy Now to wait for the TSB...and avoid getting in an accident.
