Vehicle recall

I've just had a recall letter from Nissan for the passenger airbag.

My VIN SJNFAAN......... isn't included on the VOSA site for the recall: http://tinyurl.com/kes6zms

Anyone know what's going on?

I'm reluctant to take it in because:

1. It'll be ten years old next month.
2. It'll involve a fifty mile round trip to my nearest dealer and around an hour of hanging about.
3. I don't fancy some grease monkey dismantling stuff and maybe causing problems.
4. It's the passenger airbag and I'm very rarely in that seat (selfish, I know). I've never experienced an airbag inflating in my forty-odd years of motoring.
 
The risk is made clear by Nissan and VOSA there, but I guess the choice is yours. Not sure if you HAVE to follow up on it though.
 
I believe you would be silly that to take any chance on a critical safety system being faulty, What if your bending down one day to get something from the passenger foot well and it goes off... as a mechanic they have always told and warned us that if hit from the side they are well capable of breaking your neck.

It will be a well thought out process where by the mechanics will have done quite a few already and won't have to disturb anything they don't have to.

Round trip is a pain but I can't see any reason why you would put something like this off.
