In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash. | If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury. |
| 20V315000 | MFR | 1831818 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH | Nissan North America, Inc. | Nissan North America, Inc. | 2020-05-28 | Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2018 Nissan Altima vehicles. If the primary hood latch is inadvertently released, there is an increased likelihood that the secondary hood latch may corrode over time. | Corrosion to the secondary latch may cause it to bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed. If the primary latch is inadvertently released again and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. |
| 16V029000 | MFR | 846000 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH | Nissan North America, Inc. | Nissan North America, Inc. | 2016-01-22 | Nissan North America, Inc.

(Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles. The rear door latch/lock cable on the vehicles may have been improperly routed. As a result, lowering a rear window may inadvertently cause that door to unlatch and open. | If the rear passenger doors inadvertently open while the vehicle is in motion, it may increase the risk of injury to the rear passengers. |
| 18V915000 | MFR | 341003 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH | Nissan North America, Inc. | Nissan North America, Inc. | 2018-12-19 | Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles, previously remedied under recall number 17V-040. The door latch-lock cable may not have been routed properly in the rear door when the remedy was applied. As a result, the cable may interfere with the window regulator causing the rear passenger door to unlatch and inadvertently open without warning when the window is lowered. | If the rear passenger door opens while the vehicle is moving, the rear passengers have an increased risk of injury. |
| 15V486000 | MFR | 46846 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | Nissan North America, Inc. | Nissan North America, Inc. | 2015-08-04 | Nissan North America, Inc.

Automotive recall is the process in which a vehicle manufacturer or government agency requests that a vehicle owner return the vehicle to a repair facility for the purpose of correcting a safety defect or non-compliance with federal safety standards. This process is initiated by the manufacturer or government agency when it is determined that a safety defect or non-compliance with federal safety standards exists in a particular vehicle or group of vehicles. The vehicle owner is notified of the recall by mail, and the repair is performed at no cost to the owner. The goal of an automotive recall is to prevent accidents and injuries caused by the defect or non-compliance issue.

Takata airbag recall is a recall of vehicles equipped with Takata airbag inflators. The recall was initiated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 2014 and has since expanded to include millions of vehicles from various manufacturers. The recall was necessary because it was discovered that the Takata airbag inflators could rupture upon deployment, potentially causing metal shards to be propelled into the vehicle cabin, resulting in serious injury or death to the vehicle occupants. The NHTSA recommends that vehicle owners check for recalls on their vehicles and have any identified defects corrected as soon as possible to ensure their safety.
