Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This may result in reduced braking performance which could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning to the vehicle operator.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
The air reservoir tank's volume will be increased to meet FMVSS 121 requirements. Owners will be asked to bring their vehicles to a dealer to have the remedy performed free of charge. The safety recall for owners of 2008 through 2010 ud3300 vehicles began on august 20, 2010.

Service Brakes, Air / Supply / Quick Release Valve
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Nissan diesel is recalling certain model year 1999-2010 ud3300 vehicles. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, "air brake systems." the brake actuation and release timing of the air brake system on these vehicles may not perform correctly.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
Operation of a vehicle with incorrect air brake apply/release timing may result in reduced braking performance without warning to the vehicle operator, which could result in a vehicle crash.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
The air brake line will be modified. Dealers will inspect and repair vehicles at no charge. The safety recall for owners of 2008 through 2010 ud3300 vehicles began on august 20, 2010. Notification to owners of the 1999 through 2007 ud3300 vehicles is expected to begin at the end of january 2011. Owners may contact nissan diesel at 1-972-756-5500.
Report filed by NISSAN DIESEL AMERICA, INC. Owner notification date in the NHTSA record: 20 Aug 2010.
07V207000Received 10 May 2007. 6,074 units.
Engine and Engine Cooling
Defect, in the NHTSA record
On certain trucks equipped with bando belt tensioner, corrosion or rust may develop on the tensioner spindle or bushing causing the auto tensioner to become stiff or bind. This can cause the drive belt to suddenly come off, or the auto tensioner mounting bolts could suddenly break.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If the drive belt comes off, the alternator warning lamp will illuminate. If the warning is ignored, this condition could ultimately result in a loss of vehicle power (engine stall) increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace the auto tensioner, install upgraded mounting bolts, and replace the accessory drive belt free of charge. The recall began on august 24, 2007.

06V462000Received 4 Dec 2006. 133 units.
Power Train / Automatic Transmission / Gear Position Indication (Prndl)
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Certain medium duty trucks equipped with the allison series 2500 automatic transmission do not have a park position available inside the automatic transmission. These vehicles may have been assembled with an automatic transmission shift lever control assembly indicating a park position is available for selection by the vehicle operator.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
This may mislead the vehicle operator into placing the shift lever into the indicated park position and exiting the vehicle without applying the parking brake. This could cause unexpected or uncontrolled movement of the vehicle without prior warning which may result in vehicle crash.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will inspect and replace free of charge the shift assembly if it indicates the incorrect park position. The recall is expected to begin on or about january 26, 2007. Owners may contact nissan diesel at 972-756-5500.
