  • SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER ARM Recall for 2009 NISSAN XTERRA

    • Recall Announced MAY 20 2010
    • NHTSA Reference #10E019000
    • Number Affected 1,873

    Summary: Nissan is recalling certain front and rear lower links, P/nos. 54501zq00A, 54500zq00A, 551A1zq00A, 551A0zq00A , 54501ea00A, 54500ea00A, 551A1ea500, 551A0ea500, 54501zr00A, and 54500zr00A, sold between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010 as replacement parts for model year 2004 through 2010 titan, armada, and QX56, and model years 2005 through 2010 frontier, Xterra, and pathfinder vehicles. The lower control link assembly has two cylindrical collars forming the inboard attachment points to the chassis. Due to an improper welding process some collars may contain welds that do not meet strength specifications.

    Consequence: If the collar weld separates, the vehicle handling will deteriorate, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.

    Fix: Nissan will notify owners and dealers will replace any affected lower link free of charge. The safety recall began on July 12, 2010. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

  • AIR BAGS:FRONTAL Recall for 2009 NISSAN XTERRA

    • Recall Announced DECEMBER 29 2008
    • NHTSA Reference #08V690000
    • Number Affected 242,720

    Summary: Nissan is recalling 242,720 MY 2005-2009 pathfinder, frontier and Xterra vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia. In those areas of the country which use heavy concentrations of road salt in the winter, a mixture of snow/water and salt can enter into the front crash zone sensor (czs) housing. If this occurs, the czs may internally rust resulting in a signal interruption. If this happens, the red air bag warning light will illuminate to alert the vehicle operator.

    Consequence: This issue could result in the non-deployment of the driver and passenger front air bags in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury.

    Fix: Dealers will replace the front czs with a redesigned sensor. The recall began on January 26, 2009. Owners in the other states will receive extended warranty coverage for the sensor to 10 years. These owners will be notified of the warranty extension by mail and will receive a sticker to place in their warranty booklet explaining the extended warranty coverage. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
