Nissan Assures Car Buyers Its Products are Safe from Radioactivity

Nissan Assures Car Buyers Its Products are Safe from Radioactivity: "

As fear mounts over possible radioactive contamination from Japan's severely compromised Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant, automakers have been trying to reassure car buyers that their vehicles will remain unaffected. The most common assurance offered is that autos are manufactured far enough away from the facility that fallout won't end up on their vehicles.

Nissan, however, is offering consumers more than just words. As an added step to ensure safety, the Japanese automaker will reportedly be performing a radiation inspection on all vehicles produced in Japan, before they are exported to other countries. And they will continue to do so until any possible threat of contamination has subsided.

Such inspections may seem futile in light of The Japanese Automobile Manufacturers Association announcement that no harmful levels of radiation have been detected in any vehicles destined for export. However, we at Boardwalk Nissan fully appreciate their better-safe-than-sorry approach.

Nissan reports that its current supply of vehicles in the U.S. stands at 50-days worth of cars, trucks, and SUVs. Long-term delivery schedules, however, still cannot be guaranteed. As of March 18, Nissan was able to commit to a normal schedule for only seven days. That's as long as officials could be certain they will have enough parts.

Stay tuned for more news on Nissans efforts and supply levels in the aftermath of the quake-tsunami disaster, coming soon. Boardwalk Nissan, located at1 Bair Island Road in Redwood City, California, is dedicated to keeping you informed.
