Structure

Transport Canada recall 2022313 · manufacturer campaign R22A2 / R24C6

14 June 2022

Transport Canada lists: Pathfinder 2013–2016

What is wrong

Why it matters

A hood that opens suddenly while driving could block the driver's view and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Nissan will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the secondary hood latch.

5 October 2021

Transport Canada lists: QX 60 2014–2017 · Pathfinder 2014–2015

What is wrong

Why it matters

A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Nissan will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to reprogram the HPCM.

Lights And Instruments

Transport Canada recall 2021020 · manufacturer campaign PC786

21 January 2021

Transport Canada lists: Pathfinder 2013–2015

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the stop lamp switch may not have been installed correctly. Over time, this could cause the stop lamp relay to fail and stick in the on position. If this happens, engine power may be reduced and the brake lights will stay on. Additionally, the vehicle may be started and shifted into gear without pressing the brake pedal. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall 2016-264. Vehicles that were repaired under that recall require a second inspection.

Why it matters

The ability to shift the vehicle out of park without depressing the brake pedal and/or starting the engine without depressing the brake pedal could increase the risk of a crash. Brake lights that stay on could cause other road users not to recognize when the vehicle is braking. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Nissan will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer for an inspection of the stop lamp switch and relay. If the stop lamp relay was deleted during a previous repair, no further action is required. For all other vehicles, the dealer will adjust or move the stop lamp switch and replace the stop lamp relay.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a defect in the occupant classification system could allow an adult sitting in the front passenger seat to be classified as a child or an “empty seat”. This would suppress the airbag, which could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

For affected Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue and Sentra vehicles, dealers will reprogram the airbag control unit and the occupant classification system control unit. For affected Leaf, NV200, Pathfinder, Q50 and JX35/QX60 vehicles, dealers will replace the occupant classification system electronic control unit.

What is wrong

Certain vehicles serviced as part of recall 2014-093 or which had the Occupant Classification System (OCS) module replaced during servicing may have been fitted with an incorrect replacement OCS module. An incorrect OCS module would impair the effectiveness of the OCS, potentially failing to properly classify an adult passenger seated in the front passenger seat. This could increase the risk of injury to the occupant in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will reprogram the OCS module.
