What Happened
The air bag cover in your vehicle has a small plastic emblem that might crack and break loose during a crash. This emblem helps keep the air bag in place and prevents it from getting damaged.
Risk if Unfixed
If the emblem breaks loose during a crash, it could become a sharp projectile that could hit and injure you or a passenger. This is a serious safety risk and should be fixed right away.
Free Fix
Your Nissan dealer will replace the air bag cover's emblem for free. You should schedule this repair as soon as possible, especially since you've already received a recall notice.
