Reference: Date: NTB10-071 June 23, 2010 VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN EQUIPMENT / SERVICE PARTS SUSPENSION LOWER LINK CAMPAIGN ID #: NHTSA # PC049 10E-019 APPLIED VEHICLES: 2004 - 2010 Armada (TA60) 2004 - 2010 Titan (A60) 2005 - 2010 Frontier (D40) 2005 - 2010 Pathfinder (R51) 2005 - 2010 Xterra (N50) INTRODUCTION Nissan is conducting a voluntary safety recall campaign for suspension lower link service parts that fit MY 2004 through 2010 Armada and Titan and MY 2005 through 2010 Xterra, Pathfinder, and Frontier vehicles. A small number of suspension lower link service parts sold between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010 may have welds that are out of specification. Applied vehicle owners will be asked to take their vehicle to the dealer if a lower link on their vehicle was replaced between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010 or if they do not know whether a lower link was replaced during that time. DEALER RESPONSIBILITY If a vehicle owner believes his or her vehicle may have received affected suspension lower link service parts, it is the dealer’s responsibility to inspect and, if necessary, replace the lower links pursuant to the instructions on this bulletin. Applied Vehicles with the original factory installed lower links are not subject to this service parts recall campaign; however, some 2010 MY Applied Vehicles may be subject to the Suspension Lower Link vehicle recall campaign (PC047). Please review Service Comm to confirm campaign eligibility. IDENTIFICATION NUMBER Nissan has assigned identification number PC049 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communications and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign. 1/12 Repair Overview Inspect suspension lower links (write down the Lot Numbers). Compare Lot Numbers to the examples on page 3. No Lot Number match Lot Number Z, Y, or A match Replace each lower link that has a Lot Number match.

EXPENSE CODES EXPENSE Car Rental EXPENSE CODE 502 11/12 MAXIMUM AMOUNT $200.00 NTB10-071 OWNER’S LETTER (example of typical owner’s letter) Dear Nissan Frontier Owner: This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Nissan has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in a limited number of lower control link service parts for MY2005-2010 Nissan Frontier vehicles. Our records indicate that you own or lease the Nissan vehicle identified by the VIN on the cover of this notice. If the lower control link on your vehicle was replaced between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010, your vehicle may have one of the affected lower control links included in this campaign. Reason for Recall Your vehicle suspension contains lower control links that attach to the chassis mounting points. The lower control links installed when your vehicle was produced are not affected by this concern. A limited number of replacement service parts for the lower control links may have been manufactured out of specification and may contain welds that do not meet the proper strength specifications. If one of these welds separates, the lower control link can slip from its mounting bolt potentially changing the wheel camber. If this occurs, the handling characteristics of your vehicle may deteriorate and increase the risk of a crash. What You Should Do 1. If you know that the lower control links in your vehicle were not replaced between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010, no further action is required on your part. 2. If you did have a lower control link on your vehicle replaced between November 25, 2009 and May 14, 2010 or you do not know if one was replaced, please contact your Nissan dealer at your earliest convenience in order to arrange an appointment to have your vehicle inspected, and if necessary, repaired. What Nissan Will Do Your Nissan dealer will determine whether the lower control links in your vehicle are affected. If they are, the dealer will replace them if necessary, free of charge for parts and labor. Depending on the number of links that need to be replaced, this repair may take up to four hours to complete, but your Nissan dealer may require your vehicle for a longer period of time based upon their work schedule. To minimize your inconvenience, it is important that you have an appointment before bringing your vehicle to the dealer for repairs. Please bring this notice with you when you keep your service appointment. Instructions have been sent to your Nissan dealer. Please contact the National Consumer Affairs Department for instructions. National Consumer Affairs Department, Nissan North America, Inc., P.O. Box 685003, Franklin, TN 37068-5003. The toll free number is 1-800-NISSAN1 (1-800-647-7261). If you feel that Nissan failed to remedy your vehicle free of charge or within a reasonable amount of time, you may submit a complaint to the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590; or call the toll-free Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www.safercar.gov. Federal law requires that any vehicle lessor receiving this recall notice must forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within ten days. Thank you for your cooperation. We are indeed sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you. 12/12 NTB10-071
