NHTSA Campaign 17V268000
SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER
Issued by Nissan North America, Inc. · Reported Apr 24, 2017 · 44,264 vehicles affected
What's wrong
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Nissan Titan Crew Cab and Titan XD Crew Cab vehicles. In the event of a crash, the rear seatbelt assembly may not adequately protect the occupant's head, allowing it to contact the D-ring bolt trim cap. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact."
Consequence
If the occupant's head contacts the D-ring bolt trim cap during a crash, there is an increased risk of injury.
Remedy
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install energy absorbing material to the C-Pillar Finishers and replace the Seatbelt Bolt and Bolt Cap, free of charge. The recall began September 19, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
