## What is wrong

Nissan North America, Inc. \(Nissan\) is recalling certain 2022 Sentra vehicles.  The driver's side cowl area may have a missing or improper seal, which can allow water to leak inside the vehicle and corrode electrical components.


## What can happen

Corrosion of the electrical components could result in failure of various electrical systems, such as loss of wiper motor function or exterior lighting, inoperative air bags, or the ability to shift into gear without applying the brake pedal.  Any of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.  In addition, an electrical short\-circuit may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, reseal the driver's side cowl.  If moisture or corrosion is found, the main harness and engine room harness will be replaced.  Repairs will be performed free of charge.  Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 26, 2023.  Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1\-800\-867\-7669.


## 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.nhtsa.gov.
