More than 7,300 Nissan Rogue crossovers from the 2011 model year are being recalled after it was discovered that circuit board might not have been installed in the correct position on certain electric power steering (EPS) assist control units.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration [NHTSA] said that this may cause the circuit board to fail and as a result, the power steering assist feature will cease to function thus increasing the force needed to steer the vehicle.
The Japanese automaker said that the affected vehicles were manufactured from August 17, 2010, through October 30, 2010.
Nissan plans to notify owners for the safety recall before the end of December. If necessary, the firm’s dealers will replace the EPS control on the affected Rogue models free of charge.
