Moscow (Reuters): Japanese automaker Nissan Motor Ltd. will recall 106,340 Nissan cars in Russia, Russia’s technical safety watchdog Rosstandart said last week.

Rosstandart said the recall would affect Nissan Almera, Nissan Teana, Nissan Pickup, Nissan Tino, Nissan Patrol, Nissan Terrano II and Nissan X-Trall models produced between 19 February 2001 and 28 November 2012.

The recall is to address a problem with parts of the airbag safety device. Earlier this week, Rosstandart said Nissan would recall 127,738 Nissan cars in Russia.
