NHTSA complaint: 2006 NISSAN FRONTIER — AIR BAGS
WEATHER TURNED FROM RAIN TO ICY. SOUTH BOUND ON STREET THAT OVERPASS INTERSTATE. TRUCK SPUN AROUND SEVERAL TIMES FIRST IN SOUTH BOUND LANE HITTING GUARD RAIL ON WEST SIDE, WENT OVER THE CURB AND MEDIAN INTO NORTH BOUND LANE SPIN AGAIN BEFORE COMING TO REST AGAINST 4FT HIGH CONCRETE DIVIDER ON BRIDGE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IS THE ONLY ONE THAT DEPLOYED. MY WIFE WAS IN PASSENGER SEAT. NO OTHER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THIS TRUCK HAD DUAL STAGE SUPPLEMENTAL FRONT AIR BAGS AND NISSAN AABS.. THANKFULLY OUR SEAT BELTS WERE PROBABLY WHAT PROTECTED US FROM BEING THROWN FROM THE TRUCK. AS I STATED ONLY THE AIR BAG IN STEERING WHEEL DEPLOYED. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO WITH ALL THE RECALLS GOING ON. I HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I WENT TO EMERGENCY ROOM THE FOLLOWING TUESDAY TO GET XRAY OF CHEST BECAUSE OF PAIN. MY WIFE WENT TO HER DR ALSO. *TR
