NHTSA recall 07V267000
Engine And Engine Cooling · Nissan North America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: On certain vehicles, if a sufficiently hot object enters the air filter housing through the engine fresh air intake system and contacts the engine air filter, the flammability characteristics of the air filter material are such that the filter may ignite.
Why it matters: If the air filter material ignites, a fire may occur.
The fix: Dealers will replace the air filter with a new one that has improved anti-flammability material characteristics. The recall began on July 3, 2007, and will continue through October 1, 2007.
