1993 NISSAN ALTIMA Recalls Canada & USA

1993 NISSAN ALTIMA Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1993 Nissan Altima has 2 recalls, both addressing the same hazard: engine movement that can pull the throttle cable out of its guide, leaving the throttle stuck open even after the driver lifts off the gas pedal. When the throttle cannot return to idle on its own, the vehicle continues accelerating against the driver's intentions, raising the risk of a crash. Both recalls describe this same underlying condition through different components in the engine bay, but the real-world result is identical.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Defect

ENGINE MOVEMENT CAN BE TRANSMITTED TO THE AIRFLOW METER/FILTER HOUSING AND SUPPORT BRACKET, WHICH IS MOUNTED IN THE ENGINE AIR DUCT, CAUSING THE THROTTLE CABLE HOUSING TO PULL OUT OF THE CABLE GUIDE. THIS MAY PREVENT THE THROTTLE FROM RETURNING TO THE IDLE POSITION WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS RELEASED.

Safety Risk

IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, LOSS OF THROTTLE CONTROL COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.

Remedy

NISSAN WILL REPOSITION THE THROTTLE CABLE HOUSING IN THE SUPPORT BRACKET TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL SLACK FOR ENGINE MOVEMENT. A RUBBER STOPPER WILL BE CLAMPED TO THE CABLE TO MAINTAIN THE CORRECT POSITION FOR THE CABLE AT THE SUPPORT BRACKET. IN ADDITION, THE THROTTLE CABLE WILL BE TESTED FOR PULL OUT RESISTANCE FROM THE GUIDE IN THE EVENT THE CABLE WAS DAMAGED. THE THROTTLE ASSEMBLY WILL BE REPLACED, IF NECESSARY.
