Nissan joins Toyota in Australia recall - Sky News Australia

The car maker is the latest to announce the recall following Toyota Australia's decision late last week to recall 181,000 vehicles for the same reason. The affected Nissan models in Australia were the N16 Pulsar, D22 Navara, Y61 Patrol, T30 X-Trail and A33 Maxima, a company spokesman said. "Nissan is in the process of studying the exact vehicles to be recalled under this latest 119,000-vehicle recall action," he said. Nissan will begin contacting customers affected by the recall as soon as replacement parts for the "SPI inflator" are available. In 2013 and 2014, Nissan Australia announced recall actions concerning Takata airbags fitted to 37,300 vehicles sold in Australia. Japan's No. 3 vehicle manufacturer, Honda, said last week it was recalling 4. 89 million vehicles, just a day after Toyota and Nissan said they were calling back a combined 6. 5 million vehicles over fears about Takata airbags.
