Filing in context

The Body is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 108 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 40 Nissan notifications from 2011 in this archive. For scale, 716 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 5 years and 9 months.

Issue

The stud bolts securing the gas-charged stays on the back door lack sufficient durability against the loads generated during opening and closing. Repeated operation causes the fiber washer at the stud bolt mounting point to wear and the stud bolt to loosen. If the vehicle continues to be used in this condition, the stud bolt may fracture, and the back door will no longer be held in position.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the stud bolts and fiber washers with corrected parts.

状況

バックドアのガス封入式ステー取り付け用スタッドボルトにおいて、バックドア開閉時の入力に対する耐久性が不足しているため、バックドア開閉操作の繰り返しにより、スタッドボルト取り付け部のファイバーワッシャが摩耗し、スタッドボルトが緩むものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、スタッドボルトが折損し、バックドアを保持できなくなるおそれがある。

改善措置

全車両、スタッドボルト及びファイバーワッシャを対策品と交換する。
