VEHICLE MAKE/MODEL: MODEL YEAR(S):
Nissan/Rogue 2008-2009
MANUFACTURER: Nissan North America, Inc.
MFR'S REPORT DATE: October 14, 2009
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V411000
NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: N/A
COMPONENT: Steering: Gear Box: Shaft Pitman
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 163659
SUMMARY:
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2008-2009 Rogue vehicles. A screw in the steering gear housing cover may loosen over time and could fall out.
As it loosens, the steering response of the vehicle may be compromised but the driver will retain steering control.
CONSEQUENCE:
The screw may eventually come out of the steering gear cover. If large steering inputs are made with the cover screw missing the pinion shaft may come
out of the steering gear resulting in a complete loss of steering control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy:
Dealers will inspect whether the steering gear cover screw is loose and it will be retightened to the proper specification. Dealers will also install a cover
plate to prevent the screw from possibly coming out of the steering gear. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin
during november 2009. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Owners may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or
