Recall 1113462 — Exhaust Emission Reduction Device

Filed February 1, 2005 · Nissan

Overview

MLIT filing number1113462
TypeStatutory Recall (government-mandated recall)
Date filedFebruary 1, 2005
Manufacturer(s)Nissan
ComponentExhaust Emission Reduction Device
Production periodApril 11, 2001 — May 20, 2004
Vehicles affected151,168 units

Defect

The heat shield on the exhaust manifold is improperly shaped, exposing the oxygen sensor mounting area of the front catalytic converter to repeated thermal stress. This causes the mounting area to corrode and detach, generating abnormal noise. Continued use after detachment may allow the oxygen sensor to separate entirely, significantly increasing exhaust noise.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the exhaust manifold heat shield with the corrected part and inspect the condition of the oxygen sensor mounting area. If the mounting area has detached, replace the exhaust manifold-integrated front catalytic converter with the corrected part.

状況

②エキゾーストマニホールドの遮熱板の形状が不適切なため、前側触媒の酸素センサ取り付け部が熱負荷を繰り返して受けて、当該取り付け部が腐食する。そのため、当該取り付け部がはがれて異音が発生し、そのまま使用を続けると、酸素センサが外れて、騒音が増大するおそれがある。

改善措置

②全車両、エキゾーストマニホールド遮熱板を対策品に交換すると共に、酸素センサ取り付け部の状態を点検し、当該取り付け部がはがれた場合は、エキゾーストマニホールド一体前側触媒を対策品と交換する。
