The Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Act (MVSA) notified Transport Canada of over 150,000 Nissan recalls due to safety and health risks posed to the vehicle driver and passenger.
Various Nissan models and makes have been recalled across Canada due to issues involving faulty jackknife keys, car defrosters and water leakage. Transport Canada published the automotive recall on February 17, 2023, and recommends that Canadians verify if their cars are affected by the recall. It also shared instructions on which steps to take to fix the problem(s).
