APRIL 2009 -- Nissan Diesel is recalling 10 MY 2008 UD3300 trucks equipped with Arvin Meritor 2-speed rear axle. The length of the air brake hose installed between the relay valve and quick release valve for the left rear air brake assembly is incorrect and may increase the resistance in the air supply. Incorrect length of air brake hose will increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will have the air brake hose replaced between the relay valve and the quick release valve with the correct length hose free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before May 4, 2009. Owners may contact Nissan diesel at 972-756-5500.  09V-111

NOVEMBER 2008 -- Nissan Diesel is recalling 549 MY 2008 UD1800, UD2000, UD2300, UD2600, and UD3300 medium duty trucks. A failure of the fuel injection pump drive coupler can occur. The bottom corner of the notched drive surface was improperly machined. With increased fuel pump pressure, the required turning torque on the drive coupler increased. The increased turning torque could crack the coupler at the bottom corner without warning under normal vehicle operation. Continued operation with a cracked drive coupler could result in the coupler becoming broken and causing the engine to stall and not restart, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the fuel injection pump drive coupler. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact Nissan Diesel at 1-972-756-5500. 08V-617
