4 recalls covering model years 2023. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
Some Nissan Ariya electric vehicles have software that helps control the electric drive system, and this software may sometimes incorrectly detect a problem that isn't actually there. When that happens, the software can shut down the vehicle's electric drive system. This shutdown causes the vehicle to lose the power it needs to keep moving while it is being driven.
On certain Ariya vehicles, O-rings inside the electric front traction motor may have been damaged when the vehicle was assembled. This can cause the motor to leak oil internally and lead to an unexpected loss of the power that drives the wheels. Losing drive power unexpectedly while driving raises the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the front traction motor assembly at no cost to the owner.
Some Ariya electric vehicles have inverter software that may incorrectly detect a short circuit. When that happens, the software shuts down the EV system, causing the vehicle to lose drive power.
On certain Nissan Ariya vehicles, the bolt that holds the steering wheel in place may have been tightened incorrectly or may be missing. If the bolt is loose or missing, the steering wheel can come loose from the steering column, and the driver can lose the ability to steer the vehicle. Losing steering control increases the risk of a crash.
