AUTHORIZATION
Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. authorizes Nissan Motor Corporation., U.S.A. (NMC) to conduct a campaign on certain 1986.5-1991 Nissan vehicles.
INTRODUCTION
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has been investigating certain seat belt buckles manufactured by Takata Corporation for
vehicle model years 1986.5 through 1990 and a part of 1991. These buckles were installed in numerous models built by several manufacturers including
certain 1986.5-91 Nissan and Infiniti models. Nissan is aware of a small number of reports of seat belt buckle release button breakage in vehicles
equipped with these Takata buckles. A broken piece may prevent the buckle from latching or prevent it from unlatching.
NUMBER OF VEHICLES POTENTIALLY AFFECTED: Approximately 2,000,000.
DEALER RESPONSIBILITY
It is the dealer's responsibility to check each vehicle within the range of this campaign which for any reason enters the service department. This includes
vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in dealer inventory.
WARRANTY EXTENSION
Owners of 1986.5 through 1988 vehicles affected by this campaign have been given a lifetime limited warranty on the entire seat belt assemblies in their
car. This lifetime limited warranty is the same as applied to 1989 and later Nissan vehicles.
OWNER NOTIFICATION
Current owners of vehicles involved in this campaign will be notified by mail over a 10-11 month period beginning September 29,1995. A sample
