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.
DRIVER AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY
The driver�s airbag was manufactured with an incorrectly manufactured airbag inflator initiator that may not ignite when a deployment voltage is provided to the initiator. As a result vehicles may experience a �non-deployment� of the driver airbag during a crash event warranting an airbag deployment which could increase the risk of injury.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the driver airbag unit (initiator included) with a quality assured unit.
TRANSMISSION CAN CHANGE GEAR WITHOUT CONTROL FROM DRIVER
As part of a software update the stored adjustment settings for the automatic clutch were not deleted and re-taught. These stored settings are incompatible with the updated software and can result in incorrect operation in certain circumstances. This may adversely affect gear changes including uncommanded selection of neutral. If neutral is selected manual gear selection will be available.
On affected vehicles the clutch software will be re-installed and the system re-taught.

HYDRAULIC CONNECTOR MAY LEAK
A hydraulic connector may fail and cause a transmission oil leak. This may have an adverse effect on gear selection.
Add a support bracket which will be installed to hold the pipe securely in position and prevent movement of the assembly.

On affected vehicles replace the clutch pipe connector assembly related brackets and parts
PARTS OF SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER MAY BE DISLODGED ON DEPLOYMENT
Due to a faulty connection part of the pyrotechnical system could become dislodged on deployment in an accident and enter the vehicle interior putting the occupants at risk of injury. On affected vehicles.
Replace seat belt on affected vehicles.

FUSE BOX CONNECTIONS INSECURE
The flange nut can seize on the thread of the studs in the fuse box which could mean the terminals do not have the correct torque and may be loose. This could cause arcing.
Check fuse box; Replace all fuse box cable flange nuts to new correct type nuts and tighten to correct torque. If necessary replace the fuse box

RIGHT WINDOW AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY AS INTENDED
The right widow airbag may not meet specification. As a result it may not deploy in the event of an accident.
On affected vehicles replace the right window air bag.
RIGHT WINDOW AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY AS INTENDED
The right widow airbag may not meet specification. As a result it may not deploy in the event of an accident.
On affected vehicles replace the right window air bag.
LEFT WINDOW AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED
The left widow airbag may not meet specification. As a result it may not deploy in the event of an accident.
On affected vehicles replace the left window air bag.
STARTING CURRENT LIMITER MAY OVERLOAD
Where the car incurs severe engine damage resulting in the engine failing to turn over (engine seizure) and if the driver repeatedly attempts to start the engine despite the engine not cranking the very high electrical current could lead to overheating of the starting current limiter and the potential for a fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and install an additional fuse in the electrical line to the starter.
VACUUM LINE BRAKE BOOSTER MAY BREAK
The connection fitting of the vacuum line to the brake booster is not to specification and my not be durable. If the connection fails the brake booster will no longer be supplied with vacuum. After a few brake applications the driver will have to apply additional pressure to the brake pedal to gain the appropriate braking effect.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the vacuum line on the brake booster with a quality assured component.

BRAKE SWITCH MAY BE ACTIVATED PERMANENTLY
The ball head connecting the brake pedal and the master brake cylinder the ball head might not be locked properly into the ball cage. If the driver accidentally pulls up the brake pedal the brake switch would be activated permanently. This will cause: The brake lamps to be illuminated even while driving A Check Control Message would not alert the driver. An engine start or gear selection would be possible without brake actuation. If the driver's door were opened after switching off the engine the gear would not switch automatically to P as designed.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the locking of the ball head on the brake pedal. If necessary the pedal mechanism will be replaced.
AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY
The propellant mixing ratio in the igniters of the front passenger airbag assembly may not meet specification. If the airbag is required and activated it might not deploy or not completely deploy. This could increase the risk of injury to the occupants.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the front passenger airbag assembly.
