Nissan to recall 2.5 million cars in US, Europe, Japan

NISSAN Motor is issuing a recall of about 2.47 million cars globally of models including Note, Kicks, Serena and Leaf, a company spokeswoman said on Friday (Jul 14).

The recall will affect vehicles in US, Europe and Japan over several issues, including cars suddenly accelerating after exiting cruise control or a short circuit that would cause motors to stop while driving.

No accidents resulting from the issues have been reported at this time, the spokesperson told Bloomberg.

Nissan said earlier on Friday that it will recall Note Aura due to faulty right headlamp, in addition to other models in Japan. BLOOMBERG
