Wheel Bearing: Recalls
Recall 02V299000: Rear Axle Water Intrusion

DEFECt: On certain 4-wheel drive pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, water may enter the rear axle housing due to inadequate sealing of the
anti-lock braking system (ABS) sensor. This can result in corrosion and eventual failure of the wheel bearing. If this occurs, the wheel assembly could
separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

REMEDY: Dealers will inspect the rear axle for water intrusion, and all affected components will be replaced. The ABS sensor will be resealed to
prevent water intrusion. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification began Jan. 13, 2003. Owners should contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
