SCHEDULE NOWFrequently asked questionsNHTSA campaign 13V095000 · Reported Mar 15, 2013 · 18,880 vehicles affected
Defect
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 NV vehicles manufactured from December 20, 2010, through January 4, 2013 and are equipped with steering column-mounted transmission shift levers.

Corrective Action
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will correct the installation of the transmission lever gear selector plate lock clip, free of charge. The recall began on April 15, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.

5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies four safety campaigns for the 2012 Nissan NV across the Power Train, Air Bags, and Engine And Engine Cooling components. A transmission selector clip may make the indicator show Park when the vehicle can still roll. An incorrectly assembled air bag control unit may prevent deployment, while another inflator may rupture and send metal fragments toward occupants. Engine oil cooler and filter bolts may break, causing an oil leak, loss of pressure, or engine seizure. Waiting can leave these risks unresolved. A prompt VIN check at Courtesy Nissan of Tampa helps determine whether a free manufacturer remedy is still needed.
