Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

The two NHTSA recalls involve safety-critical systems. An air bag inflator may fail to operate correctly or rupture during deployment, potentially sending metal fragments toward occupants and causing serious injury or death. A brake master cylinder may intermittently reduce pressure to the front brakes, lowering braking power, lengthening stopping distance, and increasing crash risk. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved. If you received a notice, heard about a recall, or are unsure whether a prior owner completed the work, contact Courtesy Nissan of Tampa promptly for a free VIN check and guidance on the next step.
