Nissan is recalling about 132,000 vehicles globally ââ¬â including 80,000 in North America ââ¬â because of an ignition key defect, the Associated Press reported.
The problem involves some of the ignition parts that are too long, so the cars sometimes don't start properly, Nissan said.
Occasionally, the engines start even when the ignition is turned off and the driver moves the steering wheel, it said.
There have been no reports of injuries related to the defect, the Transport Ministry said.
The recalls applies only to models using Nissan's "intelligent keys" with integrated circuit chips inside, which allows drivers to open their car doors with their keys still inside their pockets by just pressing on the handle.
