Nissan recalls faulty vehicles

Car company Nissan is recalling thousands of vehicles due to a possible steering-wheel problem.

The recall affects five-door hatchback Nissan Qashqai models made in 2012 as well and some Qashqai+2 multi-purpose vehicles and 3,000 of the 2012-made NV200 light commercial vehicles.

Nissan said that where necessary steering wheels will be replaced and that the company thought around 600 vehicles might need attention.

The recall was sparked by a steering wheel coming loose in an incident in Finland. There were no injuries.
