Nissan is recalling 841,000 cars worldwide because of a potential steering problem but fewer than 500 vehicles are affected in the Middle East.
The Japanese manufacturer is recalling certain models of the Micra produced between 2002 and 2006, and the Cube model produced during the same period.
Nissan Middle East did not provide further details.
The problem relates to a loosening of a bolt in the steering wheel column.
No accidents as a result of this issue have been reported.
The repair is expected to take about 40 minutes.

Six pitfalls to avoid when trading company stocks
Following fashion
Investing is cyclical, buying last year's winners often means holding this year's losers.
Losing your balance
You end up with too much exposure to an individual company or sector that has taken your fancy.
Being over active
If you chop and change your portfolio too often, dealing charges will eat up your gains.
Running your losers
Investors hate admitting mistakes and hold onto bad stocks hoping they will come good.
Selling in a panic
If you sell up when the market drops, you have locked yourself out of the recovery.
Timing the market
Even the best investor in the world cannot consistently call market movements.
