TELEMATICS CONTROL UNIT RESET AFTER AUTOMATIC COLLISION NOTIFICATION This bulletin has been amended. See AMENDMENT HISTORY on the last page. Please discard previous versions of this bulletin. SERVICE INFORMATION The Telematics Control Unit (TCU) has the ability to send an automatic collision notification when the vehicle is involved in an accident. Once an automatic collision notification is performed, the function becomes disabled and the TCU must be reset to re-enable the automatic collision notification function. Some models will store DTC B2E1B-97 for “Automatic eCAll locked” as “CURRENT” when this function is disabled. This bulletin describes how to reset the TCU after an automatic collision notification has been performed. For models with B2E1B-97 for “Automatic eCAll locked” set as “CURRENT”, complete the SERVICE PROCEDURE starting on page 2, and then erase DTCs after confirming the TCU condition is “UNLOCK”.

***** Campaign Summary ***** Nissan has notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that it is issuing a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign on seven (7) specific 2021 and 2024 Nissan Titan vehicles identified in Service Comm and DBS National Service History. Due to a supplier issue that has since been corrected, the Airbag Control Unit (ACU) baseplate in affected vehicles is missing a spacer that prevents interference between the ACU baseplate fastener end and the vehicle’s floor pan. As a result, the fastener may become loose due to potential floor pan interference. If the fastener becomes loose, the ACU will no longer be secure which could possibly result in a delayed inflation or non-deployment of the airbag; increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash. Dealers will replace the Airbag Control Unit. ***** What Dealers Should Do**** 1. Verify if vehicles are affected by this Voluntary Recall using Service Comm or DBS National Service history – Open Campaign I.D. PD120 2. Dealers must not sell, lease, trade, rent or loan any vehicles in dealer inventory subject to this recall campaign until after the vehicle has been remedied. 3. Dealers should use NTB24-041 to remedy any vehicles subject to this campaign. 4. Once repaired, dealers should submit the claim using the claims coding provided, and release the vehicle.

VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN 2021 AND 2024 TITAN/TITAN XD; AIR BAG DIAGNOSIS SENSOR UNIT Check Service COMM or Dealer Business Systems (DBS) National Service History to confirm campaign eligibility. INTRODUCTION Nissan is conducting this voluntary safety recall campaign on certain specific model year 2021 and 2024 Titan and Titan XD vehicles to replace the air bag diagnosis sensor unit. This service will be performed at no charge to the customer for parts or labor. IDENTIFICATION NUMBER Nissan has assigned identification number PD120 to this campaign. This number must appear on all communication and documentation of any nature dealing with this campaign. DEALER RESPONSIBILITY It is the dealer’s responsibility to check Service COMM or Dealer Business Systems (DBS) National Service History for the campaign status on each vehicle falling within the range of this voluntary safety recall which for any reason enters the service department. This includes vehicles purchased from private parties or presented by transient (tourist) owners and vehicles in a dealer’s inventory. Federal law requires that new vehicles in dealer inventory which are the subject of a safety recall must be corrected prior to sale. Failure to do so can result in civil penalties by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. While federal law applies only to new vehicles, Nissan strongly encourages dealers to correct any used vehicles in their inventory before they are retailed.
