MAY
2010 --
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2010 Titan, Armada, QX56, Frontier,
Xterra, and Pathfinder vehicles manufactured from November 19, 2009 through
March 3, 2010. 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.
If the collar weld separates, the vehicle handling will deteriorate, possibly
resulting in a vehicle crash. Nissan will notify owners and dealers will repair
the vehicles free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or about
June 14, 2010. 10V-208

Nissan to recall 48K
trucks, SUVs for suspension
YAHOO NEWS --
May 20. 2010 –
Nissan
Motor
Co.
is planning to
recall 48,700
trucks and SUVs
for problems
with a
suspension part
that could lead
to a
rough ride.
Spokesman Colin
Price says the
company is
working on
details with the
National
Highway
Traffic
Safety
Administration
and expects the
recall to begin
this week.
It will cover
some, but not
all,
The Armada,
Titan and
Infiniti QX56
are produced at
the company's
Canton plant.
The Frontier,
Pathfinder
and Xterra are
produced at its
Smyrna, Tenn.,
plant.
The problem
centers on a
lower suspension
control link,
which may not
have been welded
properly. It
could cause the
bushing collar
to crack,
leading to a
rough and noisy
ride. No
accidents have
been reported.

MARCH 2010 -
Nissan is recalling certain model
year 2008-2010 Titan, Armada, and Infiniti
QX56, and model year 2008-2009 Nissan Quest
vehicles. The brake pedal pivot pin end was
not spin-formed to specification during the
manufacturing process of the brake pedal
assembly. The pivot pin could slide and
cause the brake pedal to partially disengage
from the brake pedal bracket. The driver
will experience unusual and noticeable
looseness in the pedal and a reduction in
braking force increasing the risk of a
crash. Dealers will inspect to see if the
pivot pin had been formed properly and will
replace the brake pedal assembly if
necessary free of charge. The safety recall
began on March 22, 2010. 10V-072
MARCH 2010 -
Nissan is recalling certain model
year 2005-2009 Titan, Armada, and Infiniti
QX56 vehicles. The instrument panel fuel
gauge may inaccurately display that the
vehicle still has some fuel, typically
aboutone quarter tank, when the fuel tank is
empty. This could cause the vehicle to run
out of gas and stall on the highway, which
could cause a crash. Dealers will replace
the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank
with a new improved sender card. This
service will be performed free of charge.
The safety recall began on March 22, 2010.

NEWS:
Nissan to recall
540,000 vehicles globally
YAHOO NEWS --
March 3, 2010 –
Nissan Motor Co (7201.T), Japan's
third-biggest car maker, said it will recall
about 540,000 vehicles worldwide due to
potential defects in brake pedal pins and
fuel-gauge components, mostly in the United
States.
Nissan said
five models from 2008 to 2010 model years,
including the Titan truck and Armada SUV,
would be recalled due to the risk of the
brake pedal pins partially disengaging,
causing a loss of normal braking ability.
This recall
will involve 179,000 cars in the U.S. and
25,800 in other regions, Nissan said in a
statement, adding that there have been three
reported cases of this braking problem.
Nissan also
announced plans to recall 419,000 cars in
the U.S. and 53,000 in other regions for a
separate problem with the
fuel gauge, which can at higher
mileage levels fail to accurately indicate
how much fuel is left in the tank.
The gauge
problem involve six models from the 2005 to
2008 model years, including the Titan,
Armada and the
Infiniti QX56.
Nissan said
no accidents or injuries have been reported

JUNE 2008
-- Nissan is recalling 180,664 MY
2005-2006 Titan, Armada and Infinity QX56
vehicles manufactured after March 17, 2005,
that are equipped with a Visteon air
conditioning condenser fan motor. The fan
motor may not be properly sealed allowing
excessive water intrusion and inadequate
drainage of moisture. This could cause
corrosion in the motor leading possibly to
overheating and a fire. Dealers will test
the air conditioning condenser fan motor and
replace it if necessary. The recall is
expected to begin near the end of July 2008.
Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
This recall was the subject of a Preliminary
Evaluation, PE08-037, conducted by the
Office of Defects Investigation.
08V284000
APRIL 2008
-- Nissan is
recalling 1,126 MY 2008 Quest, Titan and
Armada vehicles equipped with manual
adjustment front seats. These vehicles fail
to comply with the requirements of Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 207,
"Seating Systems." The seat track assembly
may have been manufactured out of
specification. This may result in the manual
seat pawl not fully engaging increasing the
risk of personal injuries in the event of a
crash. Dealers will inspect the seat track
assembly on the driver's and front passenger
seats and replace the entire seat assembly
free of charge. The recall is expected to
begin on or about May 16, 2008. 08V187
JANUARY 2008 -- Nissan is
recalling 5,523 MY 2008 Titan, Frontier and Xterra vehicles for failing to comply with
the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 110, 'Tire Selection and
Rims for Motor Vehicles.' The tire placard
lists an incorrect vehicle capacity weight.
This standard specifies requirements for
tire selection to prevent overloading.
Nissan will mail a correct tire placard and
installation instructions to owners of the
affected vehicles. The recall is expected to
begin during March 2008. 08V045
