REPLACE AIRBAG INFLATORS CHECKED BUT NOT REPLACED UNDER PREVIOUS RECALL R/2015/093
The air bag inflators on affected vehicles were previously checked and deemed to be serviceable. As a precautionary measure the manufacturer has decided to replace them with new assemblies.

DOOR MIRROR DIRECTION INDICATOR MAY NOT OPERATE
The door mirror indicator repeater may not operate as intended when the heated rear screen is switched on.
On affected vehicles inspect wiring and where necessaary rework the indicator connnections.

ABNORMAL DEPLOYMENT OF PASSENGER AIRBAG
The subject vehicles are equipped with front passenger�airbag�inflators which could have been assembled with improperly manufactured propellant This could cause the inflator to rupture and the front passenger�airbag�to deploy abnormally in a crash. This could result in increased risk of injury to the occupant.
On affected vehicles replace the airbag with a new assembly.

REAR RIGHT WHEEL ARCH PROTECTOR MAY DEFORM AND RUB AGAINST AND DAMAGE BRAKE HOSE
In conditions such as high speed and high vehicle loading the rear right wheel arch protector may contact the brake hose. Over time repeated contact could wear through the outer protective cover of the brake hose. This could damage the inner reinforcing braiding and in an extreme case wear a hole in the hose which could lead to brake fluid leakage.
On affected vehicles re-work the rear wheel arch protector and if necessary replace the brake pipe with new.
IGNITION SWITCH WIRING HARNESS INSECURE
The ignition switch harness connector of some Nissan Micra (K14 models) equipped with a mechanical key may not be correctly locked in position. As a result the connector may disconnect which in an extreme case could result in engine shut down while driving with no possibility to restart.
On affected vehicles inspect wiring harness and where necessary rework the ignition switch retaining latch.
HEADLAMP AUTO AIM FUNCTION MAY NOT OPERATE
Due to a non confromity in production the headlamp auto aim function may not operate
Reconfigure and then reinitialise the headlamp leveliser control unit on affected vehicles.
AIRBAG MAY FAIL
The airbag manufacturer have informed Nissan of a potential concern with propellant degradation of Front Passenger Airbag fitted with Smokeless Passenger Inflator (SPI). It has been confirmed that this degradation is a function of time temperature and environmental moisture. Deterioration of the Inflator propellant may under certain usage conditions lead to abnormal deployment of the Passenger Airbag. In an extreme situation this condition could create excessive pressure within the inflator during airbag deployment and may result in separation of the airbag housing.
Recall all affected vehicles to replace the front passenger airbag module with a new quality controlled item.

INCORRECT BODY WIDTH COULD RESTRIC REAR VISABIITY
An an incorrect maximum permissible vehicle width was incorrectly defined on the Certificate of Conformity (COC) documentation. Due to this a customer installing a body conversion according to that defined on the COC may inadvertently fit a body width that could restrict the rear visibility.
On affected vehciles measure the width of vehicle and where necessary fit extended mirrors
WHEELS MAY LOCK IF ABS IS ACTIVATED
It has been identified that due to a manufacturing issue the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) Actuator Control Unit may have contamination within it. When in use the contamination particle can migrate within the ABS unit and become trapped in a valve. In this condition the ABS may not operate as per design intent in the worst case when the ABS is activated under certain unusual driving conditions the customer may experience wheel lock and the vehicle�s dynamic behaviour would be adversely affected.
Recall all affected vehicles to inspect the ABS control unit and where necessary replace it with new component.
STOP LAMP MAY NOT BE FUNCTIONING AS EXPECTED
It has been identified that under certain unusual conditions the High Mounted Stop Lamp (HMSL) fitted to Navara accessory hardtops does not illuminate simultaneously with the vehicle's stop lamps. During engine start it is possible that a voltage drop can occur which may fall below the HMSL operating threshold. This may result in HMSL not illuminating following engine start.
Recall all affected vehicles to modify wiring and the supply to the HMSL.
STEERING WHEEL MAY BREAK/DETACH AND CAUSE LOSS OF STEERING
Due to an error in production cracks may form in the steering wheel. This could compromise the strength of the steering wheel and in extreme conditions may detach.
On affected vehicles inspect the steering wheel and replace where necessary.
BACK DOORS / HATCHBACK MAY BE UNSUPPORTED WHEN OPEN
The paint coating applied to the back door gas stay does not comply with the design requirement for anti-corrosion. Therefore the outer tube of the gas stay may corrode and crack resulting in the loss of the pressurised gas inside the gas stay. In this condition the gas stay would be unable to support the opening of the back door allowing it to drop on the vehicle user.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the back door gas stay.

The paint coating applied to the back door gas stay does not comply with the design requirement for anti-corrosion. Therefore the outer tube of the gas stay may corrode and crack resulting in the loss of the pressurised gas inside the gas stay. In this condition the gas stay would be unable to support the opening of the back door allowing it to drop on the vehicle user.

REAR OXYGEN SENSOR MAY FAIL
If an electrical short occurs in the supply to the rear oxygen sensor the senor will fail but the driver will not see an immediate warning. A MIL warning may display after continued driving depending on driving/vehicle characteristics.
Reprogram the ECU to display a warning if the rear oxygen sensor fails.
