Nissan North America, Inc.: 2020-2022 Sentra Recalled for Steering Tie Rod Failure

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Nissan North America is recalling approximately 236,238 of its 2020-2022 Sentra vehicles because the left and/or right steering tie rods may bend. This recall expands upon a previous recall (21V-461), and vehicles that were previously repaired under that older recall must be brought in again for this new remedy. Dealers will provide a free inspection and replace any bent or broken rods now, with a final replacement of both tie rods once newly designed parts become available.

Risk

A bent tie rod can suddenly break, resulting in a complete loss of steering control. This significantly increases the risk of a crash for the driver and other road users.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if your vehicle is affected by checking if you own a 2020-2022 Nissan Sentra. You can verify your VIN at www.nhtsa.gov/recalls or by calling Nissan customer service.
  2. Immediately check for warning signs such as a steering wheel that is off-center or unusual vibrations while driving.
  3. If you experience steering vibration or an off-center steering wheel, contact your local Nissan dealer immediately to request transport assistance for your vehicle.
  4. Schedule a service appointment with an authorized Nissan dealer. As an interim repair, dealers will inspect and replace any currently bent or broken tie rods free of charge.
  5. Once newly designed parts are available, you will need to return to the dealer to have both the left and right tie rods replaced with the updated design at no cost to you.
  6. Contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 and reference recall number R23B3 for more information.
  7. For further assistance, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
