NHTSA Recall Notice:
Vehicle Make / Model: NISSAN / ROGUE
Model Year(s): 2008-2009
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 09V411000
Summary:
NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2009 ROGUE VEHICLES. A SCREW IN THE STEERING GEAR HOUSING COVER MAY LOOSEN OVER TIME AND COULD FALL OUT. AS IT LOOSENS, THE STEERING RESPONSE OF THE VEHICLE MAY BE COMPROMISED BUT THE DRIVER WILL RETAIN STEERING CONTROL.
Consequence:THE SCREW MAY EVENTUALLY COME OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR COVER. IF LARGE STEERING INPUTS ARE MADE WITH THE COVER SCREW MISSING THE PINION SHAFT MAY COME OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR RESULTING IN A COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy:DEALERS WILL INSPECT WHETHER THE STEERING GEAR COVER SCREW IS LOOSE AND WILL BE RETIGHTENED TO THE PROPER SPECIFICATION. DEALERS WILL ALSO INSTALL A COVER PLATE TO PREVENT THE SCREW FROM POSSIBLY COMING OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING NOVEMBER 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
Notes:OWNERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), OR GO TO HTTP://WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV .

Transport Canada Recall # 2009303
Recall Date: 2009/10/19
Notification Type: Safety
MfrSystem: Steering
Manufacturer Recall Number:
Units Affected: 23,323
Category: SUV
Recall Details:On certain vehicles, the steering gear housing cover screw may have been manufactured out of specification and the axial tension between the screw and gear housing may deteriorate over time. This could allow the screw to gradually loosen, which will cause the steering wheel to exhibit noticeable looseness from the steering assembly. If the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, the screw may eventually come out of the steering gear housing. If large steering inputs are made with the cover screw missing, the pinion shaft may come out of the steering gear. This may result in a loss of steering control, which could lead to a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect whether the steering gear cover screw is loose. If it is loose, it will be retightened to the proper specification. In addition, the dealer will install a cover plate to prevent the screw from possibly coming out of the steering gear.
Make: NISSAN
Model: ROGUE
Model Year(s) Affected: 2008 2009
NTB09110 - CP Rogue, Murano cube; Wheel Valve Stem Nut - Service Campaign
Some Model Year 2008 - 2009 Rogue, 2009 Murano, and 2009 cube® vehicles may have been built with Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) transmitter nuts that were not manufactured to specification. Over time, these nuts may corrode and potentially crack, especially in areas where heavy concentrations of road salt are used. For those vehicles located at dealerships or registered to owners in States that do not use a heavy concentration of road salt, Nissan is conducting this Voluntary Service Campaign. Theservice campaign repair entails replacement of the TPMS transmitter nuts at no charge for parts or labor. See this bulletin for further detail.
NTB09107 - CP Rogue, Murano, cube; Wheel Valve Stem Nut - Recall Campaign
Some Model Year 2008 - 2009 Rogue, 2009 Murano, and 2009 cube® vehicles may have been built with Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) transmitter nuts that were not manufactured to specification. Over time, these nuts may corrode and potentially crack, especially in areas where heavy concentrations of road salt are used. To remedy this potential condition, Nissan is conducting this Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign for vehicles in dealer inventory located in "Salt States" and for customer vehicles registered in "Salt States" at the time of the launch of this campaign. The campaign repair will entail replacement of the TPMS transmitter nuts at no charge for parts of labor. See this bulletin for further detail.
NHTSA Recall Notice:
Vehicle make / model model year(s):
Infiniti / M35: 2008-2010
Infiniti / M45 2008-2010
Nissan / Cube 2009
Nissan / Murano 2009
Nissan / Rogue 2008
NHTSA campaign id number: 09v393000
Summary: Nissan is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington D.C., West Virginia and Wisconsin. The material in the nut used to secure the sensor-transmitter of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may corrode and potentially crack in areas with heavy concentrations of road salt. If this occurs, the nut may come out of the sensor-transmitter and the TPMS lamp will illuminate.
Consequence: If the TPMS lamp is disregarded and the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, the tire will quickly lose air pressure at a consistent rate resulting in a flat tire increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: The dealer will replace the TPMS nut with a new, more robust nut. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before November 9, 2009. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261 and Infiniti at 1-800-662-6200 .
Notes: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153 ), or go to http://www.safercar.gov Read the full recall along with additional info at NHTSA:http://nhthqnwws112.odi.nhtsa....4.pdf
