VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN 2009 ALTIMA SEDAN WITH 16 INCH ALLOY WHEELS

CAMPAIGN ID # : PB088

APPLIED VEHICLES:
2009 Altima Sedan (L32) - Coupe and Hybrid not included

Refer to Service COMM to confirm campaign eligibility.

INTRODUCTION

Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Recall Campaign on model year 2009 Nissan Altima Sedan vehicles produced at the Canton production facility that are equipped with 16 inches alloy wheels. A small number of the 16 inches alloy wheels may have been manufactured out of specification. This could cause one or more of the five lug nuts attaching the wheel to the vehicle to become loose. To remedy this, Nissan will inspect the vehicles to determine if one or more of the wheels are affected. If so, the affected wheel or wheels will be replaced with new ones free of charge for parts or labor.

NUMBER OF VEHICLES POTENTIALLY AFFECTED

Not more than 38 wheels. However, approximately 3,400 vehicles will need to be inspected to identify and replace the 38 wheels.

IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

Nissan has assigned identification number PB088 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign.

DEALER RESPONSIBILITY

It is the dealer's responsibility to check Service Comm for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary safety recall which for any reason enters the service department. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in a dealer's inventory. Federal law requires that new vehicles in dealer inventory which are the subject of a safety recall must be corrected prior to sale. Failure to do so can result in civil penalties by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. While federal law applies only to new vehicles, Nissan strongly encourages dealers to correct any used vehicles in their inventory before they are retailed.
