Recall 02V-056: 2002 Nissan Sentra
NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. recall for unknown or other, reported to NHTSA on Feb 15, 2002, covering about 9,640 vehicles.
The problem
On some passenger vehicles equipped with a nissan-approved accessory floor mat that was installed either at the assembly plant or by the dealer, due to the length of the driver side floor mat, a small amount of mat movement could cause the mat to interfere with the accelerator pedal and not allow the pedal to release after it is depressed.
The risk
If this occurs unexpectedly, it could lead to a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the driver side floor mat and if it is a nissan floor mat subject to this recall, the dealer will replace both the driver and passenger side floor mats. Owner notification began march 18, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
