Nissan Frontier recalls

8 recalls covering model years 2018, 2019, 2022. 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.

Nissan Frontier and Rogue Rearview Display Failure medium

Reported Oct 13, 2022 · Campaign 22V772000 · Model years: 2022

On some Nissan Frontier and Rogue vehicles, the in-vehicle infotainment system may reboot over and over again on its own, especially right after the vehicle is started. When the system keeps restarting like this, the rearview camera display may stop working properly. Without a working rearview display, the driver has less visibility of what is behind the vehicle while backing up, which the vehicle needs in order to meet a federal rear-visibility safety requirement.

Nissan Frontier and Titan Transmission Rollaway Risk high

Reported Sep 7, 2022 · Campaign 22V671000 · Model years: 2022

In some Nissan Frontier and Titan trucks, the part inside the transmission that's supposed to hold the vehicle in place when you shift into park may not engage the way it should. Because of this, even after you think you've put the truck in park, the vehicle may not actually be held still, and it could roll away on its own while nobody is in it.

Nissan Rogue and Pathfinder Rearview Camera Failure medium

Reported Jul 21, 2022 · Campaign 22V527000 · Model years: 2022

If the Sirius XM subscription status is set to 'Not Subscribed' on your Nissan Rogue, Frontier, or Pathfinder, it can cause the infotainment system to reboot. When that happens, the rearview camera stops working.

Nissan Frontier and Titan may roll away after parking high

Reported Jun 24, 2022 · Campaign 22V457000 · Model years: 2022

Nissan is recalling certain Frontier and Titan vehicles. The part inside the automatic transmission that holds the vehicle in place when you shift into park may not lock in properly. If it does not engage, the vehicle can roll away on its own. Nissan tells owners to apply the parking brake every time they park. A dealer will replace the pin for that transmission part, and there is no charge for the work.

Nissan Frontier Rear Seat Belt Bolts Loose medium

Reported Dec 9, 2021 · Campaign 21V958000 · Model years: 2022

Some Nissan Frontier vehicles may have the bolts that mount the left-rear seat belt bracket incorrectly tightened. If those bolts are not tight enough, the bracket could break loose during a crash. A broken bracket means the seat belt would no longer hold the rear passenger securely in place as it should, which increases the chance of injury to that passenger in a crash.

Nissan Frontier Missing Tow Hitch Risk critical

Reported Nov 22, 2021 · Campaign 21V917000 · Model years: 2022

Nissan says the tow hitch was not installed on some Frontier Crew Cab Long Bed trucks. Without it, the structural integrity of the fuel tank is compromised in a rear crash. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet federal fuel system safety standards. Nissan is recalling the affected trucks so dealers can install the tow hitch and harness kit.

Nissan and Infiniti backup camera image can stay off medium

Reported Sep 12, 2019 · Campaign 19V654000 · Model years: 2018, 2019

Nissan is recalling certain Nissan and Infiniti vehicles, including the Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Murano, Pathfinder, Titan, Frontier, Leaf, Versa and several Infiniti Q and QX models. The back-up camera and display settings can be changed so that the rear view picture no longer appears, and the vehicle keeps that setting the next time it is put in reverse. Because of this, the vehicles do not meet the federal rear visibility safety standard. Dealers will update the camera settings software at no cost.

Nissan Frontier, Versa Key Ignition May Shut Off Engine high

Reported Aug 22, 2018 · Campaign 18V551000 · Model years: 2018

Nissan is recalling certain Frontier, Versa, and Versa Note vehicles with a mechanical key ignition system. Over time, the weight hanging on the key ring, combined with road conditions or another jarring event, may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position and into the accessory position. When that happens, the engine turns off while the vehicle is being driven, since the ignition switch is no longer in the position needed to keep the engine running.
