Your vehicle is equipped with a variety ofcomput-
ers that monitor and control a number of systems
to optimize performance and help service techni-
cians with diagnosis and repair. Some of the
computers monitor emission control systems,
braking systems, engine systems, transmission
systems, tire pressure systems, and airbag sys-
tems. Some data about vehicle operation may be
stored in the computers for use during servicing.
Other data may be stored if a crash event occurs.
For example, vehicle speed, brake application,
steering angle, air bag readiness, air bag perfor-
mance, and seat belt use by the driver or passen-
ger may be recorded. These types of systems are
sometimes called Event Data Recorders.
Special equipment can be used to access the
electronic data that may be stored in the vehicle’s
computers (sounds are not recorded). NISSAN
and NISSAN dealers have equipment to access
some of this data; others may also have this
equipment. The data may be retrieved during
routine vehicle servicing or for special research. It
might also be accessed with the consent of the
vehicle owner or lessee, in response to a request
by law enforcement, or as otherwise required or
permitted by law.
