## 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.
