Nissan — Cube passenger car The driver’s airbag inflator has a laser-welded inner seal (on the left side) that may not hold reliably when deployed. This could cause the airbag module to detach from the steering wheel, sending metal fragments at high speed through the airbag inside the vehicle. Occupants may suffer serious or fatal injuries.

Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? This is about some Nissan Cube cars. The driver’s airbag has a weak spot. A small part inside may not hold when the airbag goes off.

What's happening? If the airbag deploys, it could break apart. Metal pieces might fly out inside the car. This can hurt or even kill people inside.

Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Nissan Cube in France, you may be at risk.

What should I do? Take your car to a Nissan dealer right away. Ask your mechanic if your car is safe to drive until it is fixed.
