What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, a problem with the torque sensor in the electric power steering (EPS) system could cause a loss of power steering assist.

Note: Vehicles that were inspected under Transport Canada recall 2022-527 also require this inspection. Vehicles that had the steering column replaced are not affected by this recall.

Safety Risk:

A loss of power steering assist can cause a sudden increase in steering effort and create the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

Nissan will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the lot code on the steering column torque sensor. The steering column assembly will be replaced, as needed.
