12 recalls covering model years 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025. 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 is recalling certain Murano, Pathfinder, and INFINITI QX60 vehicles because one or both front brake caliper assemblies may have reduced strength and could break while the vehicle is being driven. If a caliper breaks, the vehicle can lose front brake function on that side, making it harder to slow down and stop the vehicle.
On some 2024 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles, a part in the left front seat belt that tightens the belt in a crash may not be attached correctly. A rivet holding it in place is missing. Because of this, the seat belt may not hold the occupant properly if the vehicle crashes. Dealers will inspect the seat belt and replace it if needed.
Nissan is recalling certain Nissan and Infiniti cars and SUVs because of a problem that happened during manufacturing. The inflator in the driver's airbag, which is the part that fills the bag, may absorb moisture. If that happens, the airbag may deploy improperly. Dealers will replace the entire driver's airbag assembly at no cost to the owner. Nissan mailed owner notification letters on April 10, 2024.
In some Nissan Rogue and Pathfinder, and Infiniti QX60 vehicles, the driver's power seat may not be fully attached to its frame. Over time, the welds holding the seat frame to a bracket at the back of the seat can come apart. If this happens, the seat is not as sturdy as it should be. In a crash, a seat that isn't properly secured may not hold the driver in place the way it's supposed to.
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.
Some INFINITI QX60 and Nissan Pathfinder vehicles may have a second-row seat track that is missing a mounting bolt. This bolt is one of the parts required to anchor the seat belt system to the vehicle. Because the bolt may be missing, these vehicles do not meet a federal safety standard covering seat belt anchorages. The second-row seat track itself may not be as securely fastened to the vehicle as it should be as a result of this missing bolt.
Certain Nissan Pathfinder vehicles may have a problem with the third-row headrests. The headrests may have an improper weld or misaligned parts inside them, which can allow a headrest to move out of place or come loose. This affects all three headrests in the third row.
Certain Nissan Pathfinder SUVs have a problem with the second-row seat backs. The metal frame inside each seat back may not have been welded together securely enough, and the welds could come apart over time. If that happens, the seat back may not hold up the way it's supposed to. Nissan is recalling these vehicles so dealers can inspect the seat frames and replace the seat assembly if the welds are found to be insufficient.
Some Pathfinder SUVs have a secondary hood latch bracket that was not welded well enough to the front bumper, and it can come loose from the vehicle. This means these vehicles do not meet a federal hood latch safety standard. If the main hood latch isn't fully closed, this detached bracket may let the hood open while you're driving, blocking the driver's view of the road ahead.
Nissan is recalling certain Nissan Murano, Maxima and Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles. The part that controls the anti-lock brakes can let brake fluid leak onto a circuit board inside it. These vehicles were covered by an earlier recall and were either not repaired or were inspected and judged not to need a repair. This recall also covers more vehicles than the earlier one. Dealers will replace the anti-lock brake part at no cost to owners.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).
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.
The anti-lock brake (ABS) pump can develop a problem that lets brake fluid leak onto an internal circuit board inside the unit. If fluid reaches the board, it can cause an electrical short there, which raises the risk of a fire starting in that part of the vehicle.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).
