AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:PASSENGER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Manufacturer
Nissan North America, Inc.
What Happened
The passenger air bag in your vehicle is a safety device that deploys to cushion you in case of a crash. In some models, the air bag inflator – a small canister that makes the air bag inflate – might be prone to a problem that could lead to a fatal accident.
Risk if Unfixed
If the inflator explodes, sharp metal pieces could fly into the passenger area, causing severe injury or even death – it's a critical safety risk.
Free Fix
Your Nissan or Infiniti dealer will replace the faulty air bag inflator with a safer one, at no cost to you. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as possible, especially given the serious nature of this recall.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2001-2003 Maxima, 2002-2006 Sentra, 2002-2004 Pathfinder, 2007-2011 Versa Sedan and Versa Hatchback, 2001-2004 Infiniti I30 and I35, 2002-2003 Inifiniti QX4, 2003-2008 Infiniti FX35 and FX45 and 2006-2010 M35 and M45 vehicles. The vehicles are equipped with non-desiccated, frontal passenger air bag inflators containing phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant that were used as interim remedy parts for previous Takata recalls. These inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Original — Remedy
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflators with alternate desiccated inflators, free of charge. The recall began February 12, 2020. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 888-737-9511 or Infiniti customer service at 888-810-3715.
