NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2012 MURANO AND ROGUE VEHICLES, MANUFACTURED FROM NOVEMBER 23, 2011 THROUGH JANUARY 11, 2012. DURING ASSEMBLY, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WAS NOT ACTIVATED. THUS, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 138,TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM.
A NON-ACTIVE TPMS CANNOT WARN A DRIVER THAT A TIRE IS UNDERINFLATED. UNDERINFLATED TIRES CAN RESULT IN TIRE OVERLOADING AND OVERHEATING, WHICH COULD LEAD TO A BLOWOUT AND POSSIBLE CRASH.
AFTER A PANIC STOP WHICH ACTIVATES THE ABS SYSTEM, THIS VEHICLE IS UNRESPONSIVE TO THROTTLE INPUT FOR AN EXCESSIVE PERIOD OF TIME (10 SECONDS OR MORE). THIS HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED TO THE DEALER AND A NEW, SIMILAR VEHICLE SHOWED THE SAME PERFORMANCE. THE DEALER INDICATES IT MUST BE INHERENT WITH THE VEHICLE, NO FIX IS AVAILABLE FROM NISSAN. THIS UNRESPONSIVENESS AFTER A PANIC STOP IS UN-SAFE. *TR
