Nissan North America will replace any of 211 2014 Leaf vehicles made (at Smyrna) between 28 February and 12 March, 2014.

NHTSA said the front structural member assembly may be missing welds, which could reduce the structural integrity of the vehicle if the vehicle is involved in a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, Occupant Crash Protection and 305 Electric-Powered Vehicles: Electrolyte Spillage and Electrical Shock Protection.
