PC514 - 2016-172017-08-01. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL; ENGINE; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE. ECM Reprogram Voluntary Emissions Service Campaign This bulletin applies only to vehciles equipped with 4 cylinder engine. ***** Campaign Summary***** Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Emissions Service Campaign on approximately 311,675 specific 2016-2017 model year Nissan Altima vehicles equipped with a 2.5L engine. Nissan has discovered that some model year 2016 and 2017 Altima vehicles are equipped with an improperly calibrated Engine Control Module (ECM) that may illuminate a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) for abnormal Air/Fuel (A/F) sensor output. The cause is a grille shutter calibration issue which may lead to higher than expected A/F sensor temperature, resulting in the MIL for delayed sensor response rate. To correct this condition, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Emissions Service Campaign to reprogram the Engine Control Module (grille shutter opening logic) free of charge. ***** What Dealers Should Do ***** 1. Verify if vehicles are affected by this Voluntary Service Campaign using Service Comm I.D. PC514. 2. Dealers are requested to repair any affected vehicles in dealer new or pre-owned inventory to ensure customer satisfaction. 3.
