CONSEQUENCE SUMMARY: If the vehicle stalls, it can increase the risk of a crash.
CORRECTIVE SUMMARY: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the production information on the ignition switch, and replace it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2018. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669.
