INTRODUCTION

Nissan has determined that an on board diagnostics non-compliance exists due to a software programming issue on some 2010 Versa vehicles such that, in some situations, a MIL will not illuminate when a malfunction exists. To correct this condition, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Emissions Recall Campaign to reprogram the Engine Control Module (engine computer). If this repair is not completed, affected vehicles may not pass an emission inspection or I/M smog check test.

IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

Nissan has assigned identification number R0907 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign.

DEALER RESPONSIBILITY

Dealers are to check Service Comm for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary emissions recall which for any reason enters the service department, and, if applicable, perform the Service Procedure in this bulletin. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in a dealer's inventory.

IMPORTANT
Attention California Dealers: California law prohibits owners from renewing their California registration if emissions related recall work has not been performed. California dealers are now required to issue a proof of correction certificate to vehicle owners upon completion of emission related recall work. Please fill out one of the campaign completion forms for each owner that has this campaign performed. Instruct owners to keep this certificate unless they are requested to mail it to the DMV. A sample of the form is shown below.





NOTE:
These forms are available from Nissan Publications at no charge (item number CAEMRC-2/09)
