## What is wrong

Nissan \(Nissan North America, Inc.\) is recalling certain model year 2007\-2012 Nissan Versa vehicles manufactured May 8, 2006, to November 12, 2012, that were sold or ever registered in the District of Columbia, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.  Road salt may corrode the front coil springs, possibly resulting in the coil springs fracturing.


## What can happen

If a front coil spring fractures, it may contact the tire, possibly puncturing it, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace both front coil springs, free of charge.  The recall began on February 2, 2016.  Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1\-800\-647\-7261.
