  1. Retractor (seat belts)

    NHTSA 82V070000 Reported 118,747 vehicles potentially affected NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.

    On some of the involved seat belt assemblies, binding in the retractor mechanism may prevent the belt from being withdrawn from the retractor. This would render the seat belt unusable.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the seat belt retractor without charge to owner.

    Model years: 1979, 1980, 1981

  2. Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings (fuel system)

    NHTSA 80V151000 Reported 118,898 vehicles potentially affected NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.

    The rubber plug used to seal off one of the tank outlets may deteriorate under dry, high ozone environmental conditions (particularly high temperatures) allowing fuel leakage.

    Remedy: All involved vehicles will have a new clamp and rubber over-plug placed on the existing plug. If the rubber plug is deteriorated, it will also be replaced.
