Engine and Engine Cooling
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 armada, titan, infiniti qx56 and model year 2005-2006 frontier, pathfinder and xterra vehicles. The intelligent power distribution module (ipdm) assembly contains an engine control module (ecm) relay that has a diode for electrical current noise reduction. The ecm relay may allow silicon vapor to form and, over time, the silicon evaporates from the diode molding which causes silicon oxide to develop on the ecm relay contact due to arcing.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This could cause engine stalling increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the ecm relay inside the ipdm assembly. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on december 6, 2010. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Seat Belts / Rear/Other
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain crew cab model trucks, the seat back shape may be such that there may not be sufficient webbing on the retractor spool for the rear center seat belt to release from the automatic locking mode (alr) after it is engaged and the seat belt is retracted. If this occurs, there may be difficulty in pulling the seat belt out of the retractor thus preventing its usage.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
In the event of a crash, a seat occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the rear center seat belt with a new one free of charge. The recall began on june 11, 2007. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
Report filed by NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.. Manufacturer campaign number R0701. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: .
06V459000Received . 96,500 units.
Electrical System
- Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain king cab trucks, the wires in the harness were routed through the rear doors and into the body. These wires may break due to over bending of the harness as the door is opened and closed. The harness contains wires for the driver seat belt pretensioner and for the front passenger seat belt which is part of the occupant classification system. Wires for the rear audio speakers are also contained n the harness.
- Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the wires for the seat belts and speaker wires break and make contact, there is a possibility that the pretensioner may deploy. If this happens when the seat belt is retracted, it will not be possible to use the seat belt. If one of the wires on the right side harness for the seat belt tension sensor breaks, the passenger side front air bag will not deploy as designed in a frontal collision increasing the risk of a crash and personal injury.
- Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the wire harness cover with a different type that prevents over bending of the harness and the harness will be rerouted free of charge. The recall began on february 19, 2007. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
