What's wrong: Nissan north america, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018 Nissan 370z vehicles. The driver's side curtain air bag May have been installed incorrectly during production, possibly affecting its deployment. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 214, "side impact protection," and 226, "ejection mitigation."
Why it matters: The incorrect curtain air bag installation can prevent the air bag from deploying correctly in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
