JDM vehicle recall website

[Ant]

Hi all, here is a site where you can look up vehicle recalls for JDM cars, they have translated the recall notices to English:

And select the Japanese flag.

There are a few recalls on R32 and R34 Skylines:

Good site, but doesn't seem like all of them are there...best to check the Japan Nissan site for all the recalls.

Just checked, Nissan seem to have taken down the complete list...only from 2001 available.

Yeah, from what I've heard from the guys that run that site, they have a huge list of Nissan recalls that they are still working their way thru the translations for. So expect more to appear in the near future.

Last time I checked the Nissan site it had recalls going back to around '96 or so, maybe they're getting spooked about the possibility of claims from overseas as per the problems MMC had in NZ just recently......

Check the chassis number against those listed in the recall notice, that will tell you if it was part of the recall. And read the recall notice completely, most of them say something about how to tell if the recall fix has already been applied.

As for who pays - you're probably on your own there. Though it looks like you're from NZ so as you know the govt kicked up a bit of a stink regarding responsibility for recalls for imports during the MMC problems recently. So if you argue hard enough with a Nissan dealer and drop the words 'Mitsubishi recall' and 'precedent setting' they might meet you half way perhaps.

And don't be too worried, judging by the lists for other manufacturers practically every make and model of car has been recalled at some point, most for minor stuff so it is just a fact of life......
