- Published by: NHTSA \(United States\)
- Campaign number: 98V012002
- Manufacturer: NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
- Reported: 1998\-03\-03
- Owners notified: 1998\-03\-23
- Component: VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
- Units potentially affected: 46500

## What is wrong

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:  MINI VANS.  THESE VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITH POWER WINDOWS THAT CAN BE CLOSED AFTER THE IGNITION KEY IS TURNED TO THE "OFF" POSITION AND THE RIGHT FRONT \(PASSENGER\) DOOR IS OPENED.  THIS DOES NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS 118, "POWER\-OPERATED WINDOW SYSTEMS."


## What can happen

THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR UNSUPERVISED CHILDREN TO OPERATE THE POWER WINDOWS, INCREASING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY TO THE CHILD.


## The remedy

OWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH A LABEL REMINDING OWNERS NOT TO LEAVE CHILDREN UNATTENDED BECAUSE THE POWER WINDOWS CAN OPERATE FOR 15 MINUTES AFTER THE VEHICLE IGNITION HAS BEEN TURNED OFF UNLESS THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS OPENED.  ALSO INCLUDED ARE INSTRUCTIONS DESCRIBING HOW AND WHERE THIS LABEL IS TO BE INSTALLED.  IF AN OWNER PREFERS, THEIR DEALER CAN INSTALL THIS LABEL FOR THEM.


## Notes
