The problem
During production, a select number of vehicles underwent an offline inspection at the assembly plant where a bolt in the front suspension assembly was removed. On some of these vehicles, it is possible that this bolt May not have been tightened to specification when it was reinstalled.
The risk
If the bolt is loose, the driver will hear a rattling noise and notice vibration. If the bolt comes off completely, the driver can experience difficulty in controlling the direction of the vehicle which could result in a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace the attachment bolts and tighten them to the specified value. This recall began on July 2, 2007. Owners May contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
