The short version

Nissan North America, Inc. reported a problem with the axle spindle. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The front steering knuckle or rear axle housing may have insufficient strength due to improper heat-treatment.

WHY IT MATTERS

The steering knuckle or rear axle could deform upon impact, such as from hitting a curb, resulting in a loss of steering control, or possible wheel separation. Both of these conditions can increase the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Take it to a dealer — they will inspect and replace the front steering knuckle and rear axle housing, as necessary, free of charge.
