Transport Canada recall 2016179

25 April 2016

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.

Structure

Transport Canada recall 2015334

23 July 2015

Transport Canada lists: Rogue 2015 · Sentra 2015 · Versa Note 2015

What is wrong

Certain vehicles fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 206 – Door Lock and Door Retention Components. A manufacturing error could cause the left front and/or left rear door latches to fail to fully latch and fail to meet the requirements of the standard. As a result, occupants may be at greater risk of injury in a crash, and unbelted occupants could fall from the vehicle and sustain injury.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect latches and replace as necessary.
