Franklin, TN – March 14, 2024 – Nissan (OTCMKTS:NSANY) is recalling 9,720 2023 Nissan Rogue SUVs whose seat belts may not operate as intended in a crash, increasing the risk of an injury.
Recall summary
The seat belt pretensioner is a safety device that pulls the seat belt firmly against the passenger’s torso in a crash to reduce the risk of injury. The affected SUVs ended up with “crimped” pretensioners in the “driver and front passenger seat belts” due to a supplier error.
As a result, they may not work correctly in a crash and fail to protect the occupants.
Recall risks
The lack of restraint may result in an injury in a crash.
