Your vehicle is equipped with a variety of

computers that monitor and control a num-

ber of systems to optimize performance

and help service technicians with diagno-

sis and repair. Some of the computers

monitor emission control systems, braking

systems, engine systems, transmission

systems, tire pressure systems, and airbag

systems. Some data about vehicle opera-

tion may be stored in the computers for use

during servicing. Other data may be stored

if a crash event occurs. For example, ve-

hicle speed, brake application, steering

angle, air bag readiness, air bag perfor-

mance, and seat belt use by the driver or

passenger may be recorded. These types of

systems are sometimes called Event Data

Recorders.
Special equipment can be used to access

the electronic data that may be stored in

the vehicle’s computers (sounds are not

recorded). NISSAN and NISSAN dealers

have equipment to access some of this

data; others may also have this equipment.

The data may be retrieved during routine

vehicle servicing or for special research. It

might also be accessed with the consent of

the vehicle owner or lessee, in response to

a request by law enforcement, or as other-

wise required or permitted by law.

A genuine NISSAN Service Manual is the best

source of service and repair information for your

vehicle. Filled with wiring diagrams, illustrations

and step-by-step diagnostic and adjustment pro-

cedures, this manual is the same one used by the

factory-trained technicians working at NISSAN

dealerships. Also available are genuine NISSAN

Owner’s Manuals, and genuine NISSAN Service

and Owner’s Manuals for older NISSAN models.

IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION

Unfortunately, accidents do occur. In this unlikely

event, there is some important information you

should know.
Many insurance companies routinely authorize

the use of non-genuine collision parts in order to

cut costs, among other reasons.
