For Canada
If you believe that your vehicle has a
defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should
immediately inform Transport Canada in
addition to notifying NISSAN.
If Transport Canada receives complaints,
it may open an investigation, and if it
finds that a safety defect exists in a group
of vehicles, it may request that NISSAN
conduct a recall campaign. However,
Transport Canada cannot become in-
volved in individual problems between
you, your dealer, or NISSAN.
You may contact Transport Canada’s
Defect Investigations and Recalls Divi-
sion toll free at 1-800-333-0510. You
may also report safety defects online at:
https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/
PCDB-BDPP/Index.aspx.
Additional information concerning motor
vehicle safety may be obtained fromTransport Canada’s Road Safety Infor-
mation Centre at 1-800-333-0371 or
online at www.tc.gc.ca/roadsafety (Eng-
lish speakers) or www.tc.gc.ca/securiter-
outiere (French speakers) .
To notify NISSAN of any safety concerns
please contact our Consumer Informa-
tion Centre toll free at 1-800-387-0122.
Due to legal requirements in some states/areas
or provinces, your vehicle may be required to be
in what is called the “ready condition” for an
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test of the emis-
sion control system.
The vehicle is set to the “ready condition” when
it is driven through certain driving patterns.
Usually, the “ready condition” can be obtained
by ordinary usage of the vehicle.
If a powertrain system component is repaired or
the battery is disconnected, the vehicle may be
reset to a “not ready condition”. Before taking
the I/M test, check the vehicle’s inspection/
maintenance test readiness condition. Place the
ignition switch in the ON position without
starting the engine. If the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) comes on steady for 20 seconds and
then blinks for 10 seconds, the I/M test
condition is “not ready”. If the MIL does not
blink after 20 seconds, the I/M test condition is
“ready”.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer to
set “ready condition” or to prepare the vehicle
for testing.
