Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2008-2011 Titan, Frontier, Xterra, Pathfinder, Armada, and 2008-2009 Quest vehicles. The resin emblem on the driver's air bag cover may develop cracks and detach during air bag deployment.
A detached emblem can become a projectile during air bag deployment, increasing the risk of injury to vehicle occupants.

THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 201, "PROTECTION IN INTERIOR IMPACT." AN OUT-OF-SPECIFICATION A-PILLAR FINISHER MIGHT IMPEDE THE CORRECT INFLATION OF THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAG NEAR THE UPPER PORTION OF THE B-PILLAR.

THE LOWER CONTROL LINK ASSEMBLY HAS TWO CYLINDRICAL COLLARS FORMING THE INBOARD ATTACHMENT POINTS TO THE CHASSIS.

NISSAN ARMADA VEHICLES WITH A FACTORY TOW PACKAGE INCLUDE SELF-LEVELING REAR SUSPENSION. THE SYSTEM IS COMPRISED OF AIR-LEVELED SHOCKS AND AN AIR COMPRESSOR. THE SYSTEM LEAKS, CAUSING THE AIR PRESSURE TO DROP AT SPEED, WITH OR WITHOUT LOADS, AND WHEN PARKED AND TURNED OFF. IT CAUSES THE REAR END TO BE SOFT AND HANDLE POORLY, WHICH, WHEN TOWING, IS CLEARLY A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
