2002-2003 NISSAN ALTIMA; VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN HALOGEN HEADLAMP GROUND PLATE KIT

Nissan has determined that on some 2002 and 2003 model year Nissan Altima vehicles, there is a possibility that a low beam Halogen headlamp bulb may fail to illuminate due to a poor ground contact.

To prevent this from occurring, Nissan is conducting a Service Campaign to inspect the headlamp assemblies and then install a halogen terminal ground plate kit and, if needed, install a new low beam Halogen bulb. In a limited number of cases, the headlamp assembly may require replacement.

2002-2003 NISSAN ALTIMA, 2002-2004 SENTRA; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN ENGINE EXHAUST PIPE HANGER PIN AND PRE-CATALYST
Nissan has determined that some 2002-2003 model year Altima and 2002-2004 model year Sentra vehicles equipped with the 2.5 liter engine have defects that relate to motor vehicle safety. For 2002-2003 model year Altimas, there is a possibility that the exhaust pipe hanger pin may catch debris from the road that could be ignited by contact with the catalytic converter and cause a fire. In addition, for 2002-2003 model year Altimas and 2002-2004 model year Sentras, there is a possibility that certain engine operating conditions may cause damage to the pre-catalyst. Material from inside a damaged pre-catalyst could enter the engine and result in increased oil consumption. If the engine oil level is not checked on a periodic basis and drops below the low level, and the driver continues to operate the vehicle ignoring noticeable engine noise, engine damage may occur which could result in a fire.

2003–2004 NISSAN ALTIMA AND SENTRA WITH QR25DE ENGINE; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN CRANK ANGLE SENSOR / ECM REPROGRAMMING

Nissan has determined that on some 2003 – 2004 Altima and Sentra vehicles with the 2.5 liter engine the operation of the crank angle sensor is significantly affected by variations in temperature that occur due to the unique location of the sensor in the engine. Under certain driving conditions, these variations in temperature can be large enough to cause a brief interruption in the signal output from the sensor. If the interruption in the signal from the sensor is so brief that the Electronic Control Module (ECM) logic does not have time to diagnose the condition, the engine may stop running without warning while the vehicle is driven at low speed.

2002-2005 NISSAN ALTIMA, 2004-2005 MAXIMA; VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN REAR SUSPENSION MEMBER REPLACEMENT / BUSHING REPLACEMENT AND SEALING

On some model year 2002-2005 Nissan Altima and 2004-2005 Nissan Maxima vehicles, there is a possibility that corrosion of the rear sub-frame may occur. Corrosion is most likely in cold climates where heavy salting of roads is common practice in freezing conditions. A mixture of road salt and water can promote corrosion in the rear sub-frame bushings of some vehicles. In severe cases, cracking of the rear sub-frame may occur, which may result in a knocking noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. The performance or handling characteristics of the vehicle are not affected and it is safe to drive the vehicle.

2002-2003 NISSAN ALTIMA; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN FUEL PUMP SCREEN

Nissan has determined that in areas of the country where extreme cold temperatures can occur in the winter, there is a possibility that moisture in the gas tank may freeze and form ice crystals. These ice crystals may block the suction opening of the fuel pump, which is located in the gas tank. This may prevent the supply of fuel to the engine and cause the engine to stop, which could result in a crash without warning. To prevent this condition from occurring, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign to install a screen at the suction opening of the fuel pump to prevent ice crystals from blocking the opening.
