A recall does not mean your car is affected. Check the market, build date and VIN with the manufacturer.
- Engine / equipment
- Rear seat back lock buttons: Nissan Juke F16
- Period mentioned
- 2019–2020 (built from 18/9/2019 to 28/8/2020; only the VINs in the recall)
- Symptoms
- After folding it and raising it again, the rear seat back can stay unlatched without you noticing.
- Possible cause described
- According to the EU alert A12/01430/21 (Safety Gate) and the UK DVSA (R/2021/345), a design change added an internal chamfer in the seat back lock button on which the latch rod can catch; the seat back stays unlatched and, in a crash, neither the rear passenger nor the luggage is properly restrained.
- Check for the garage
- After raising the seat back, pull it forward to check that it has locked. Ask a Nissan dealer, with the VIN, whether the recall is outstanding on your car. They replace both lock buttons.
- Cost cited in the source
- No verified estimate; check whether the free recall remedy remains outstanding for the VIN.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
