Nissan recalls 800,000 cars with potentially faulty steering wheels Car manufacturer Nissan has announced plans to recall more than 800,000 cars due to a potential steering wheel problem. The recall affects 133,869 Nissan Micras made between December 2002 and May 2006 and is part of a worldwide recall of 841,000 Micras. The required repairs are expected to take approximately fifteen minutes to complete. A Nissan Motor GB spokesman said: "Over time, the nut that holds on the steering wheel can become loose. Drivers could start notice some wobbling of the wheel and if this is ignored there is the possibility that it could come completely off. He added: "There have been a few incidents of steering wheels becoming loose, but there have been no accidents." In April this year Nissan were forced to recall 480,000 cars over fears that air bags were not inflating correctly on passenger sides.
