Nissan 300ZX Recalls
Summary
WHEN SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION FROM `PARK' TO EITHER `REVERSE' OR `DRIVE', UNINTENDED ACCELERATION MAY OCCUR WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: A SHIFT INTERLOCK WILL BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT SHIFTING FROM `PARK' TO EITHER `REVERSE' OR `DRIVE' UNLESS THE BRAKE PEDAL IS APPLIED.
Summary
THE GREASE USED TO LUBRICATE THE HEADLAMP SWITCH WAS FORMULATED INCORRECTLY TO CONTAIN SILICONE. ELECTRICAL ARCING DURING SWITCH OPERATION COULD PRODUCE SILICONE OXIDE DEPOSITS WHICH COULD PREVENT THE SWITCH CONTACT POINTS FROM COMPLETELY CLOSING. THIS COULD RESULT IN EITHER DELAYED OR NON-ILLUMINATION OF ONE OF THE HEAD- LIGHTS WHEN THE SWITCH IS TURNED ON OR DURING DIMMER SWITCH OPERATION.
Summary
THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER HAS A BUILT IN PROPORTIONING VALVE WITH A "C" CLIP, LOCATED AT THE END OF THE VALVE SPOOL, ACTING AS A STOPPER. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF THE CLIP MAY CAUSE THE CLIP TO DISENGAGE ALLOWING THE VALVE SPOOLS AND COMPONENTS TO BE PUSHED OUT AFTER REPEATED STRONG BRAKE APPLICATION RESULTING IN POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND BRAKE FUNCTION.
Summary
VEHICLES MAY HAVE A DEFORMED INNER HOOD PANEL WHICH COULD CAUSE MISALIGNMENT OF THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH. A MISALIGNED SECONDARY LATCH MAY HAVE INSUFFICIENT ENGAGEMENT, AND IN THE EVENT THAT THE PRIMARY HOOD LATCH WAS NOT ENGAGED, COULD NOT PREVENT THE HOOD FROM OPENING DURING HIGH SPEED DRIVING.
