    NHTSA 81V063000 Reported 42,735 vehicles potentially affected NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.

    Remedy: The dealer will install an improved grease seal. Upon inspection, if signs of bearing wear or rust are present, the bearing will also be replaced at no cost to owner.

    Model years: 1980, 1981
