INTRODUCTION
Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign on Model Year 2010-11 Sentra vehicles equipped with the MR20DE engine that were manufactured from May 22, 2010 through July 8, 2010 to replace the positive battery cable terminal.
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Nissan has assigned identification number PM062 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.
