Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1114700 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | June 30, 2005 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Nissan, Nissan Diesel |
| Component | Brake lights |
| Production period | June 25, 2004 — February 25, 2005 |
| Vehicles affected | 147 units |
Defect
The electrical circuit for the lighting system is improperly designed, causing the brake lights to fail to illuminate when the auxiliary retarder (electromagnetic retarder) is active. This fault may also damage the brake-light activation circuit within the electromagnetic retarder's electronic control unit, after which the brake lights will similarly fail to illuminate during retarder operation. This notification supersedes recall notification No. 1421 filed on May 10, 2005; the corrective measures have been revised and this filing replaces that remedy.
Corrective action
Add electrical wiring to the affected circuit on all vehicles and replace the electromagnetic retarder electronic control unit with a new unit.
