## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, the rear axle housings may not have been properly heat\-treated. As a result, a strong impact \(such as hitting a curb\) could cause a rear axle housing to bend or break. If this happens, a wheel could be mis\-aligned or there could be a loss of control and a wheel could separate.

Safety Risk:

A loss of control and/or a wheel separation could increase the risk of a crash. A wheel that separates could also hit another person or vehicle.

Corrective Actions:

Nissan will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the production date on the casting stamp of the rear axle housings. Parts that are affected by this problem will be replaced.
