Filing in context

The Engine General is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 7 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 3 Nissan notifications from 1997 in this archive. For scale, 2,340 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 2 years and 7 months.
Defect
The vacuum pump hose attached to the alternator is incorrectly shaped. When the alternator is used to adjust fan belt tension, the hose deforms. Continued use in this condition may cause the hose to crack, disabling the exhaust gas recirculation system. On vehicles equipped with a vacuum-hydraulic brake system, braking force may also be reduced.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected hose and tube with corrected/revised parts (with clamp).
