If you believe that your vehicle has a de-

fect which could cause a crash or could

cause injury or death, you should immedi-

ately inform the National Highway Traffic

Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addi-

tion to notifying NISSAN.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it

may open an investigation, and if it finds

that a safety defect exists in a group of

vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy

campaign. However, NHTSA cannot be-

come involved in individual problems be-

tween you, your dealer, or NISSAN.
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Ve-

hicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-

327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go

to http://www.safercar.gov; or write to:

Administrator, NHTSA, 400 Seventh

Street, SW., Washington, D.C. 20590.

You can also obtain other information

about motor vehicle safety from http://

www.safercar.gov.
You may notify NISSAN by contacting our

Consumer Affairs Department, toll-free, at

1-800-NISSAN-1.

Always check with local I/M testing requirements

for Hybrid vehicles before taking your vehicle for

testing.
The vehicle is set to the “ready condition” when it

is driven through certain driving patterns. Usually,

the ready condition can be obtained by ordinary

usage of the vehicle.
If a powertrain system component is repaired or

the 12-volt battery is disconnected, the vehicle

may be reset to a “not ready” condition. Before

taking the I/M test, check the vehicle’s

inspection/maintenance test readiness condi-

tion. Turn the ignition switch ON without starting

the engine. If the Malfunction Indicator Light

(MIL) comes on steady for 20 seconds and then

blinks for 10 seconds , the I/M test condition is

“not ready”. If the MIL does not blink after 20

seconds, the I/M test condition is “ready.” If your

vehicle does not pass an I/M test the Malfunction

Indicator Light (MIL) may not come on. Contact a

NISSAN dealer to prepare the vehicle for re-

testing.
