In typical Japanese corporate fashion Nissan doesn't really directly communicate with dealers. I wouldn't expect them to know anything unless they decided to release a service bulletin. Of course this is highly unlikely as they would rather try and keep their problems private (also typical Japanese corporate behavior).

No it's not (and not trying to insult the Japanese people here), but the corporate mentality in Japan is very good at it It's just the corporate mentality, nothing to do with the people themselves.
