What happened

Nissan is recalling certain 2007-2008 Nissan Versa sedan and hatchback vehicles that were originally sold or registered in specific states and U.S. territories. The passenger-side frontal air bag inflator may explode due to propellant degradation from humidity and temperature exposure, which could cause metal fragments to strike vehicle occupants and result in serious injury or death.

Nissan dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator free of charge. Owners should contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 to arrange the replacement.
