1979 DATSUN 510 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1979 Datsun 510 has 3 recalls, the most serious being front seatbelts that can lock up in their retractors and leave front passengers unable to buckle in at all. On hatchback models, the tail and brake light sockets can work loose from their housings, causing a poor electrical connection that leaves the tail and brake lights inoperative and the car invisible to following traffic. The third recall is a compliance issue involving the vehicle's weight rating label, which displayed values in pounds rather than the kilograms required under Canadian regulations.
