    I Saw this also. It said in the article the airbags were typically manfactured between 2003-2007. So in theory I should be ok

    Looks like cars manufactured between 2003 and 2007 may be affected. Hoping my 2007 misses out.

    It's the biggest recall already and they have not stopped expanding it. Apparently this company had 20% of the airbag market so from 2003-2007 that's a lot of cars!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
