What's wrong, in plain English

On some 2019 Nissan Altima vehicles, the clip connecting the low pressure fuel tube to the high pressure fuel pump may not have locked into position. If the clip stays unlocked, the fuel tube may shift and leak fuel. If the tube fully disconnects, the engine can stall. Dealers will route the fuel hose into the holding clip and lock it into place as necessary.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
2. Contact a Nissan dealer, or call Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669.
3. The repair is free.

Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 18V922000.
