A recall does not mean your car is affected. Check the market, build date and VIN with the manufacturer.
- Engine / equipment
- Rear oxygen sensor and engine control unit software: Nissan Qashqai J11, Juke F15 and X-Trail T32
- Period mentioned
- 2014–2016 (only the VINs in the recall)
- Symptoms
- Nothing is noticed: if the rear oxygen sensor fails, the engine warning light does not come on straight away; it may come on after further driving.
- Possible cause described
- According to the UK DVSA (R/2016/157) and the EU alert A12/0879/16 (Safety Gate), if a short occurs in the rear oxygen sensor supply, the sensor fails without storing a fault code, so the driver gets no engine warning light. The fix is to reprogram the engine control unit so that it warns.
- Check for the garage
- Ask a Nissan dealer, with the VIN, whether the recall is outstanding on your car.
- 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.
