What is wrong
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2013 Altima, LEAF, Pathfinder, Sentra, and Infiniti JX35 vehicles. Sensors within the passenger Occupant Detection System (ODS) may have been manufactured out of specification. This may cause the system to malfunction and permanently suppress the passenger airbag.
What can happen
If the vehicle is involved in a crash necessitating airbag deployment and the passenger airbag is suppressed, there may be an increased risk of personal injury.
The remedy
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the ODS sensors and replace them as neccessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 6, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

| NTB15005 | 2021-05-10. Service bulletin. INTRODUCTION Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign on certain specific Model Year 2013 - 2014 Nissan Pathfinders to adjust the lever stop for the secondary hood latch lever at no charge for parts or labor. IDENTIFICATION NUMBER Nissan has assigned identification number PC343 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign. RETAILER RESPONSIBILITY It is the retailer?s responsibility to check Service COMM for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary safety recall which for any reason enters the service department. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in a retailer?s inventory. Federal law requires that new vehicles in retailer inventory which are the subject of a safety recall must be corrected prior to sale. Failure to do so can result in civil penalties by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. While federal law applies only to new vehicles, Nissan strongly encourages retailers to correct any used vehicles in their inventory before they are retailed. Please see this bulletin for further details. |
