Concurrently, Nissan investigated the impact of the weld condition of the rear inboard seat rail bracket. As part of the assessment, Nissan performed a sled pull test on the worst case weld condition to evaluate driver’s seat performance in various scenarios. Nissan concluded that the driver’s seat showed performance degradation and may not meet certain regulatory requirements. April 6, 2023 – Nissan decided to conduct a Voluntary Safety Recall to recall all potentially affected vehicles to inspect the seat rails and replace any affected seat cushion frame assemblies. Nissan is not aware of any other warranty claims attributed to this condition. 7. Description of Corrective Action: Dealers will be notified beginning April 14, 2023. Owners of all potentially affected vehicles will be notified beginning June 10, 2023. Dealers will be instructed to check the driver’s seat rail clearance to the inboard seat bracket, and if necessary, the dealer will remove and replace the affected driver’s seat cushion frame. All repairs will be performed free of charge for parts and labor and may take less than two (2) hours to complete. Nissan will not include a statement in the Part 577 owner notification concerning reimbursement for the cost of obtaining a pre-notification remedy since the subject vehicles are under warranty. 8. Copy of Notices: Copies of all notices will be provided to NHTSA as they become available.

Nissan collected the suspect part and began an investigation. January 2023 to February 2023 – A broken weld condition was found on the driver’s seat frame between the rear inboard bracket and inboard seat rail. Nissan and the supplier conducted a parts audit of 22,726 driver’s seat rails and zero were reported with a poor weld quality concern. Further investigation identified that the broken weld was related to a sub-supplier quality process issue. March 2023 – Review of the sub-supplier records determined three (3) rails that had a rejected weld condition may not have been contained. Concurrently, Nissan investigated the impact of the weld condition of the rear inboard seat rail bracket. As part of the assessment, Nissan performed a sled pull test on the worst case weld condition to evaluate driver’s seat performance in various scenarios. Nissan concluded that the driver’s seat showed performance degradation and may not meet certain regulatory requirements. April 6, 2023 – Nissan decided to conduct a Voluntary Safety Recall to recall all potentially affected vehicles to inspect the seat rails and replace any affected seat cushion frame assemblies.
