The short version

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

WHAT

Insufficient welds may allow the secondary hood latch retainer bracket to detach from the front bumper assembly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 113, "Hood Latch System."

WHY IT MATTERS

A detached secondary hood latch may allow the hood to open if the primary hood latch is not engaged, obstructing the driver's view and increasing the risk of a crash.

WHAT TO DO

Take it to a dealer — they will inspect and replace the secondary hood latch bracket as necessary, free of charge.
