Nissan Sentra 1994

• Recall 1999069 [Canada]: Suspension
  On certain 2 door models, corrosion of the front coil springs can result from loss of the protective paint coating and heavy road salt exposure. This corrosion may cause pits to form on the spring surface resulting in possible fatigue failure. If a broken spring comes out of the lower seat, it may contact the tire and cause it to deflate. This could result in loss of vehicle control and a crash. Correction: front coil springs will be replaced with ones that have been coated with zinc phosphate.
