Nissan is recalling 11,824 of its 2021 Versa and 2021 Kicks vehicles because the electric power steering may fail unexpectedly. A faulty connection in the steering torque sensor can disable the power steering assist while driving. Dealers will inspect the steering column and replace the assembly if necessary at no cost to the owner. This recall includes vehicles that were previously inspected under an earlier recall (22V-693) but did not have the part replaced; those vehicles must be reinspected.
A sudden loss of power steering assist can make the steering wheel much harder to turn, particularly at low speeds. This unexpected increase in steering effort can make the vehicle difficult to control, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
