NISSAN Recalls 13 Thousand "Versa Note" in N. America Due to Bolting Issues

NISSAN announced to recall 13 thousand of “Versa Note” in North America due to the insufficient strength of some bolts installed at the rear, which is likely to result in passengers’ injury.

Vehicles involved in this case will be those manufactured in Mexico before July 5, 2013. All of them are available in the market of North America.

NISSAN stated that part of those bolts installed on the rear seats showing insufficient strength may increase the possibility of passengers’ injury when some unexpected car accidents occur. Moreover, some other bolts used to fasten the body and the chassis may be not securely fastened and are likely to loose under certain situations, thus weakening the anti-collision at the rear end.

NISSAN added, there is currently no report regarding the injury caused by the aforementioned failure. Retailers will recall all cars involved to undergo examination and replacement.
