NHTSA Campaign 80V112000

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Issued by NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. · Reported Aug 28, 1980 · 39,382 vehicles affected

What's wrong

MOISTURE PRESENT IN THE EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM MAY, UNDER CONDITIONS OF SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURES AND LOW EGR FLOW RATE, CONDENSE AND FREEZE IN THE THROTTLE CHAMBER. AN ICING CONDITION COULD OCCUR IF THE VEHICLE OWNER FAILS TO ADEQUATELY WARM UP THE ENGINE BEFORE DRIVING. THIS COULD PREVENT THE THROTTLE FROM CLOSING COMPLETELY AND WOULD RESULT IN HIGHER THAN NORMAN IDLE RPM.

Remedy

THE DEALER WILL INSTALL A THROTTLE CHAMBER HEATING KIT TO PREVENT ICING AT NO CHARGE TO OWNER.
