NISSAN announced a problem with the QASHQAI & XTRAIL affecting a total of 9,362 vehicles.
It has been identified that the possibility exists, that a needle bearing has been omitted from the steering shaft. Additionally, the cover screw may not have been tightened to the correct torque. This may result in the cover screw becoming loose, initiating free play and noise within the steering system. Ultimately, steering control may be lost. Vehicles built from 3/1/2007 to 6/30/2007 are at risk.
Recalled vehicles will have the steering gear inspected. The steering gear will be replaced should this be found to be necessary.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest NISSAN dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
