Vehicles Affected: Approximately 55,000 model-year 2012 Nissan Versa cars
The Problem: Degradation of the side impact sensor connector pins may cause the curtain and seat-mounted airbags to deploy unexpectedly if the door is slammed, increasing the risk of injury.
The Fix: Dealers will install a new jumper harness and replace the side impact satellite sensors for free.
What Owners Should Do: Nissan did not immediately announce an owner-notification schedule. Owners can call the automaker at 800-647-7261, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
