INTRODUCTION

Some 1996 Sentra, 200SX and 1996-97 240SX vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions may experience a condition in which the A/T shift lock button breaks and falls out of place. In order to prevent unnecessary inconvenience to our customers, Nissan has initiated a Voluntary Service Campaign to replace the A/T shift lock button, spring and lubricant in all affected vehicles.
