Airbag

Transport Canada recall 2017385 · manufacturer campaign PM691

4 August 2017

Transport Canada lists: Sentra 2014, 2016–2017

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the passenger's frontal airbag may not deploy correctly due to an issue in manufacturing. As a result of long-term storage, there could be insufficient compression strength of the coolant within the inflator housing of the passenger's frontal airbag, which may cause the airbag to fail to deploy properly in the event of a crash (where deployment is warranted), which could increase the risk of injury to the front passenger occupant.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the passenger's frontal airbag inflator. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2017-215.

Transport Canada lists: JX 35 2013 · Q 50 2014–2017 · QX 60 2014–2016 · Altima 2013–2016 · and 8 more

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.

Seats And Restraints

Transport Canada recall 2016178

25 April 2016

Transport Canada lists: Sentra 2013–2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, installing a child seat in the front passenger seat could deform the seat belt bracket. This could cause the occupant classification system (OCS) sensor to fail to detect the installed child seat. In the event of a crash, the airbag would not be suppressed which would increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will reinforce the seatbelt bracket and update both the air bag control unit and electronic control unit.

Transport Canada lists: JX 35 2013 · QX 60 2014–2015 · Altima 2013–2015 · Pathfinder 2013–2015 · and 1 more

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.

Transport Canada lists: JX 35 2013 · Q 50 2014 · QX 60 2014 · Altima 2013–2014 · and 4 more

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the front passenger seat occupant classification system software may incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult. If this occurs, the passenger airbag would be deactivated without the illumination of the airbag warning lamp. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will reprogram the occupant classification system.
