A total of 699,000 units were affected in the country, includes 484,025 units of the Note, Serena and Kicks models over a defective engine hose cover which can lead to the hose cracking and pre-venting the vehicle from starting.
Nissan has also withdrawn 478,199 of Note Aura, Serena, Kicks and Leaf vehicles in Japan because of an electronic control programme that can cause the vehicles to increase speed after stopping using speed stabilizer in certain conditions.
