Nissan has announced that they are recalling certain models of the 2008 Nissan Rogue equipped with continental automotive’s occupant classification system (OCS) control units. A varistor in the OCS control unit located in the passenger seat cushion may have been manufactured out of specification. Under certain conditions, this could cause an interuption of signal between the OCS and the air bag control unit (ACU).
This could result in the passenger air bag being supressed which could fail to provide adequate protection in the event of a crash. Dealers will test the signal between the OCS and ACU systems using a special tool to check that it is functioning as designed. If necessary, the seat cushion will be replaced with a new one manufactured to specification. The recall is expected to begin on or before November 3, 2008. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261 or Infiniti at 1-800-662-6200.
