2023 Nissan Redundant Ariya: Steering recall
NHTSA campaign 23V131000 · 1,063 units potentially affected · filed Feb 28, 2023
What's wrong
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2023 Ariya vehicles. The steering wheel bolt may have been tightened incorrectly or not installed.
Why it matters
A steering wheel with a loose or missing bolt can detach from the steering column, causing a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Owners are advised to contact their dealer for transport and immediate repair if the steering wheel feels loose when gently rocking the wheel forward and back with their hands. Dealers will replace the steering wheel bolt, free of charge. Nissan began notifying owners on March 2, 2023 via phone and will follow up with owner notification letters beginning on March 30, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is PC956.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
