The faulty inflator in your vehicle is a crucial part that deploys the airbag in the event of a crash. In some cases, the replacement inflators installed by a dealership or repair shop may have a defect that could cause it to explode.
Risk if Unfixed

Free Fix
Your Nissan dealer will inspect and replace the potentially faulty inflator with a safe one at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice, which is expected to be mailed on September 14, 2022.

TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

Manufacturer
NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
What Happened
The TPMS sensor is a small device that checks your tire pressure. In your 2008-2010 Nissan, the nut that holds this sensor in place might corrode and crack in areas with lots of road salt.
Risk if Unfixed
If you ignore the low tire pressure warning light and keep driving, your tire will slowly lose air, leading to a flat tire and a higher risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Nissan dealer will replace the corroded nut with a new, more durable one, and this service is free. You'll get a notice with a specific date, but for now, you can contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261 to confirm your appointment.

Original — What Happened
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.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
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.
Original — 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.
