2003 NISSAN MURANO Recalls (6)

Campaign:
03V123000 on 04/01/2003
Component:
Power train:automatic transmission:gear position indication (prndl)
Manufactured:
11/13/2002 - 02/04/2003
Affected:
128
Defect:
On certain sport utility vehicles, the nut that attaches the transmission gear selector shaft to the control valve lever in the transmission may not be adequately tightened. this could result in the transmission not actually being in the gear indicated by the gear selector lever. in addition, the transmission position display in the instrument panel may not be on or may be incorrect.
Consequence:
If the gear displayed is different from the gear engaged, this could result in unexpected vehicle movement and a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will check the affected nut in the transmission shift lever linkage, and tighten it if necessary. owner notification began april 15, 2003. owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

12/31/2000 - 06/29/2002
Affected:
630,000
Defect:
On certain passenger vehicles, the circuit board for the crank position sensor or cam position sensor may have an improper solder joint due to solder deformation caused by heat stress accelerated by the existence of flux residue during the soldering process.
Consequence:
This could cause the "service engine soon" warning light to come on, create a no start condition, cause reduced engine power, or cause the engine to stop running without warning during vehicle operation, which could result in a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the crank position sensors. camshaft position sensor(s), and in some cases, the variable timing control sensor(s). vehicles involved in a previous recall campaign, 01v357, are also included in this new campaign. the replacement sensors used in that campaign are also affected. owner notification began on december 22, 2003. owners should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261 or infiniti at 1-800-662-6200.

Manufactured:
04/23/2002 - 11/23/2005
Affected:

Defect:
On certain sport utility vehicles, due to the location of the forward edge of the fuel tank, in the event that a vehicle front tire runs over a small, sharp object in the road, catches it and propels it towards the rear of the vehicle, it may strike and puncture the fuel tank.

Affected:
203,000
Defect:

Consequence:
