What are the defects?
In certain rare instances where the vehicle is used under full load conditions and cornering at high lateral acceleration, a crack may occur on the spoke of the alloy wheel.
What are the hazards?
If the vehicle continues to be driven, the crack may propagate around the other wheel spokes. This condition is expected to create a change in the vehicle handling, however, should this condition be ignored it could in extreme cases lead to wheel detachment.
What should consumers do?
Nissan will contact owners of potentially affected vehicles by mid June 2011 to inform them of this recall and request each owner to contact their Nissan dealer to arrange for their alloy road wheels to be inspected and replaced free of charge as required.
