Component: Fuel System, Gasoline > Delivery > Fuel Pump
Manufacturer: Nissan North America, Inc.
Description:
On certain pickup trucks equipped with six cylinder engines and sport utility vehicles equipped with four or six cylinder engines, the fuel pump terminal on the fuel-sending unit can develop a crack in the plastic molding. this can cause the terminal strip to corrode under some environmental conditions.
Consequencs:
If corrosion occurs, the terminal strip could eventually break causing the fuel pump to stop operation. this will result in not being able to start the engine or cause the engine to stop running without warning, which can result in a crash.
Notes:
In the following states, dealers will replace the fuel-sending unit. these states are connecticut, delaware, illinois, indiana, iowa, kentucky, maine, maryland, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, tennessee, vermont, virginia, west virginia, wisconsin, and the district of columbia. in the other states, the dealer will inspect the fuel pump terminal on the sending unit for corrosion. if corrosion is present, the dealer will replace the unit. if there is not corrosion, the dealer will apply sealant to the terminal housing to help prevent corrosion in the future. owner notification began on june 28, 2004. owners should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Component: Steering > Column
Manufacturer: Nissan North America, Inc.
Description:
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2002-2004 frontier vehicles manufactured from july 9, 2001 through october 20, 2004, and model year 2002-2004, xterra vehicles manufactured from july 9, 2001, through january 6, 2005. over time corrosion may form in the lower steering column joint and limit movement of the joint. the limited movement of this joint may create excessive load on the lower steering column shaft. if the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, it may lead to cracking of the shaft during low speed maneuvers that require large steering inputs.
Consequencs:
The shaft may break which could result in loss of steering control during these low speed maneuvers increasing the risk of a crash.
Notes:
The steering column shaft and joint will be replaced with a shaft of a different design. this service will be performed free of charge. the recall began on december 13, 2010. owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
