What is wrong

On certain mini vans, there is a seat adjustment mechanism that contains exposed moving components located at the rear inside edge of the second row seat.

The risk

When the operator attempts seat adjustment, a finger may be pinched in the moving seat adjustment mechanism which could cause an injury.

The fix

On earlier model vehicles built through june 28, 2004, dealers will replace the inboard second row seat adjustment handle, rivet a plastic reinforcement to backside of the existing seat back cover carpeting, install tie-downs and a flange to the inboard side shield. On vehicles produced from june 29, 2004 through september 26, 2005, dealers will rivet a plastic reinforcement to the backside of the existing seat back cover carpeting, install tie-downs and a flange on the inboard side shield. The recall began on december 19, 2005. Owners may contact nissan at 1-[removed].
