VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN

CAMPAIGN ID #: R0902

APPLIED VEHICLES: 2003 - 2007 Murano (Z50)
Check Service Comm to confirm campaign eligibility.
INTRODUCTION
Nissan is conducting a voluntary safety recall on model year 2003 - 2007 Murano vehicles. Under certain conditions, the intake duct, which is connected
to the intermediate resonator in the air intake system of the engine, may separate from the resonator with engine movement. This could cause minor idle
fluctuation or poor acceleration. If this occurs, and the vehicle continues to be driven without being serviced, the engine may stall while driving. To
remedy this potential condition, Nissan is conducting this voluntary safety recall campaign to replace the air intake duct with an updated part and the air
duct clamps with new clamps at no charge for parts or labor.
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Nissan has assigned identification number R0902 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature
dealing with this campaign.
DEALER RESPONSIBILITY
It is the dealer's responsibility to check Service Comm for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary safety recall
which for any reason enters the service department. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and
vehicles in a dealer's inventory. Federal law requires that new vehicles in dealer inventory which are the subject of a safety recall must be corrected prior
to sale. Failure to do so can result in civil penalties by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. While federal law applies only to new
vehicles, Nissan strongly encourages dealers to correct any used vehicles in their inventory before they are retailed.
