Nissan admits to improper fuel economy, emissions inspections for Japanese market cars

Nissan says it has found "nonconformities" in the final vehicle inspection (kanken) procedure for domestic market vehicles at all of its Japanese factories, except the Kyushu plant. According to the company, "performance of exhaust emissions and fuel economy tests ... deviated from the prescribed testing environment", and as a result it created "inspection reports based on altered measurement values".
