(Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Altima and Pathfinder vehicles, 2013-2014 Nissan Sentra vehicles, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles, 2014-2015 Infiniti QX60 vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles.  The affected vehicles received an incorrect occupant classification system (OCS) control unit during a repair.  These OCS control units may incorrectly classify the front passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult.","consequence":"If the OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger air bag would be deactivated.  Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the passenger.","remedy":"Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the OCS software, free of charge.  The recall began on November 30, 2015.  Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.","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.safercar.gov.","mfr_campaign":null,"part_number":null,"units":919,"completion":{"kind":"quarterly","report_number":6,"period_from":"2017-1","period_to":"2017-1","submitted":"2017-04-27","involved":919,"remedied":629,"unreachable":0,"removed":0,"remedied_percent":68,"as_of":"2026-10-19"},"do_not_drive":false,"park_outside":false,"notification":null,"french":null,"vehicles":[{"year":2013,"make":"INFINITI","model":"JX35","vehicle_id":"2013_infiniti_jx35","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-03-02","built_to":"2013-06-07"},{"year":2014,"make":"INFINITI","model":"QX60","vehicle_id":"2014_infiniti_qx60","match":"exact","built_from":"2013-05-22","built_to":"2014-11-18"},{"year":2015,"make":"INFINITI","model":"QX60","vehicle_id":"2015_infiniti_qx60","match":"exact","built_from":"2013-05-22","built_to":"2014-11-18"},{"year":2014,"make":"INFINITI","model":"QX60 HYBRID","vehicle_id":"2014_infiniti_qx60","match":"base","built_from":"2013-12-14","built_to":"2013-12-14"},{"year":2013,"make":"NISSAN","model":"ALTIMA","vehicle_id":"2013_nissan_altima","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-06-12","built_to":"2014-08-26"},{"year":2014,"make":"NISSAN","model":"ALTIMA","vehicle_id":"2014_nissan_altima","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-06-12","built_to":"2014-08-26"},{"year":2015,"make":"NISSAN","model":"ALTIMA","vehicle_id":"2015_nissan_altima","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-06-12","built_to":"2014-08-26"},{"year":2013,"make":"NISSAN","model":"PATHFINDER","vehicle_id":"2013_nissan_pathfinder","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-07-17","built_to":"2014-10-08"},{"year":2014,"make":"NISSAN","model":"PATHFINDER","vehicle_id":"2014_nissan_pathfinder","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-07-17","built_to":"2014-10-08"},{"year":2015,"make":"NISSAN","model":"PATHFINDER","vehicle_id":"2015_nissan_pathfinder","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-07-17","built_to":"2014-10-08"},{"year":2013,"make":"NISSAN","model":"SENTRA","vehicle_id":"2013_nissan_sentra","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-09-01","built_to":"2014-07-08"},{"year":2014,"make":"NISSAN","model":"SENTRA","vehicle_id":"2014_nissan_sentra","match":"exact","built_from":"2012-09-01","built_to":"2014-07-08"}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":[],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/nhtsa/15V681000"}
