Nissan X-Trail Back doors / hatchback may be unsupported when open Recall
Recall affects Nissan X-TRAIL
Reason for recall: The paint coating applied to the back door gas stay does not comply with the design requirement for anti-corrosion. Therefore the outer tube of the gas stay may corrode and crack resulting in the loss of the pressurised gas inside the gas stay. In this condition the gas stay would be unable to support the opening of the back door allowing it to drop on the vehicle user.
