What is the reason for the recall?

The resin emblem on affected driver’s airbag module covers may have reduced durability. In this condition, over time the posts of the emblem may develop cracks, and the emblem and retainer components could detach in the event of an airbag deployment.

How do I know if my vehicle has a problem with the driver airbag cover emblem?

Interim letters were mailed to owners in March 2023. If your vehicle is subject to this campaign, registered owners will receive an owner notification letter from Nissan. If you would like, I can check your vehicle identification number (VIN) right now to see if your vehicle is affected.
