Nissan Recalls Qashqai Models Over Potential Fire Risk Due to Fuel Hose Issue

Nissan is initiating a recall for a limited number of Qashqai J12A passenger vehicles manufactured between May 4, 2021, and October 17, 2024. The recall, identified by campaign code PG5C8, addresses a potential fire risk stemming from a possible shift in the fuel hose. In extremely rare instances, this movement could lead to fuel leakage, creating a fire hazard.

The affected vehicles will undergo a free inspection and repair process. This campaign specifically targets the fuel hose and its rubber seal to ensure their proper function and prevent any displacement. This action is a follow-up to a previous preventive measure under campaign PG5C6, indicating a continued focus on addressing this specific component's integrity.
