INTRODUCTION
Nissan has determined that some 2006 model year Nissan Titan King Cab vehicles fail to conform to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
(FMVSS) 206 - Door Locks And Door Retention Components. FMVSS 206 specifies strength requirements for door locks, hinges and latches in
vehicles. The upper latch assembly of the right side rear door in some Titan King Cab vehicles does not meet one of the requirements in this standard.
This may result in the right side doors coming partially open in the case of certain crashes and increasing the risk of injury to occupants. To prevent this
condition from occurring, Nissan will replace the upper latch assemblies with ones that meet the standard. All other requirements under FMVSS 206 and
other standards are met.
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Nissan has assigned identification number PB017 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature
dealing with this campaign.
NUMBER OF VEHICLES POTENTIALLY AFFECTED
The number of vehicles potentially affected is approximately 480.
DEALER RESPONSIBILITY
It is the retailer'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 delivery under a sale or lease. 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.
