Vehicles Affected: Approximately 341,000 model-year 2015-17 Nissan Altima sedans
The Problem: The rear door latch/lock cable may have been improperly routed; as a result, lowering a rear window could inadvertently cause the door to unlatch and open, increasing the risk of an injury.
The Fix: Dealers will correct the rear door latch/lock cable routing for free.
What Owners Should Do: Nissan did not immediately provide 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 go to www.safercar.gov to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.

Chief Copy Editor

I joined the automotive industry in 2016 as a lifelong car enthusiast and have achieved the rare feat of applying my journalism and media arts degrees as a writer, fact-checker, proofreader and editor my entire professional career, which has somehow been more than a decade solely at Cars.com and currently as Chief Copy Editor. I live by an in-house version of the AP stylebook and know where the semicolons can go, which you can occasionally find updated proof of in the stories
