Rear door child lock that may not work (Qashqai J11 and Juke F15 of 2015–2018, recall PS0C1)Bodywork
A recall does not mean your car is affected. Check the market, build date and VIN with the manufacturer.
- Engine / equipment
- Rear door child lock switch: Nissan Qashqai J11 and Juke F15 (also Pulsar, Note and Navara)
- Period mentioned
- 2015–2018 (built from 28/9/2015 to 14/3/2018; only the VINs in the recall)
- Symptoms
- With the child lock on, the rear door could still be opened from inside.
- Possible cause described
- According to the EU alert A12/01207/20 (Safety Gate, notified by Germany), the rear door child lock may be defective and let the door open even when it is activated, increasing the risk of an accident. The UK DVSA (R/2020/220) puts it down to reduced retention force of the child lock switch; the fix is to fit a countermeasure part into the switch aperture.
- Check for the garage
- With the child lock on, try opening each rear door from inside: it must not open. If it does, do not carry children in the back until it is fixed. Ask a Nissan dealer, with the VIN, whether the recall is outstanding on your car.

- Check for the garage
- Check the brake fluid level and look for stains near the rear right wheel. Ask a Nissan dealer, with the VIN, whether the recall is outstanding on your car. The dealer reworks the liner and, if needed, replaces the hose.
