Summary

Engine Control Module (ECM) Reprogram Voluntary Service Campaign Campaign Summary Nissan has reclassified the previously announced quality action (PC945) for new vehicle inventory as a Voluntary Service Campaign to update the Engine Control Module (ECM) software. The “idle air volume” and “airflow lower limit value for alternator load correction” parameters were changed for model year 20 vehicles. These Engine Control Module (ECM) calibration changes may affect alternator control and idle speed control optimization, which could, under certain conditions, cause the engine to stall when coming to a stop.

Dealers are requested to repair any affected vehicles in dealer new or pre-owned inventory to ensure customer satisfaction.  New vehicles in dealer inventory can also be identified using DBS (Sales-> Vehicle Inventory, and filter by Open Campaign).  Refer to NPSB 15-460 for additional information 3. Dealers should use NTB20-040 to correct any vehicles subject to this campaign. 4. Once repaired, dealers should submit the claim, using the claims coding provided, and release the vehicle.
