9 recalls covering model years 2018, 2019, 2020. 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.
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 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.
The front turn signal bulb on one or both sides of these vehicles can crack and stop lighting up. This affects certain Nissan Titan, Titan XD, and Versa vehicles. Nissan is recalling these vehicles so dealers can inspect the turn signal bulbs and replace them if they are cracked or not working.
Certain Nissan Altima and Titan vehicles were equipped with Continental tires that may have been cured for too long during manufacturing. An over-cured tire can develop a break in its sidewall, leading to sudden air loss or the belt separating from the tire.
Nissan is recalling certain 2020 Titan and Titan XD pickup trucks because the engine wiring harness could have an exposed wire. If that exposed wire contacts another wire, it can cause an electrical short or arcing. An electrical short can impair the performance of the engine, transmission, or fuel pump, and can also increase the risk of a fire.
Certain 2019 Nissan Titan trucks with LED headlights have incorrect aiming marks stamped on the headlight assembly. These marks are meant to guide how the headlights are aimed when they're serviced. Because the marks are wrong, a technician who uses them to aim the headlights could end up aiming them incorrectly. Headlights aimed the wrong way may not light up the road properly at night.
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 is recalling certain 2017-2019 gasoline, light duty, Titan vehicles because the alternator harness may have been damaged when the engine was installed. This damage could lead to an electrical short in the harness. An electrical short like this may cause the engine to stall while driving, which raises the risk of a crash, and it also increases the chance of a fire.
On certain 2016 to 2018 Nissan Titan and Titan XD trucks, accessories were installed that lowered how much weight the vehicle can safely carry. However, a label showing this reduced load carrying capacity was not installed on the vehicle. Without that label, an owner may not know the vehicle's true weight limit and could end up loading it more than it can safely handle.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
| Model year | Recalls | High / critical | Do-not-drive / park-outside | Complaints | Crashes | Fires | Injuries |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 90 | 3 | 1 | 1 |
| 2019 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 47 | 3 | 2 | 1 |

NHTSA lists 9 safety recalls covering the 2018–2020 Nissan Titan. 5 of them are rated high or critical on this site. The most recent is "Nissan Frontier and Titan Transmission Rollaway Risk" (NHTSA campaign 22V671000), reported Sep 7, 2022.
The 2020 Nissan Titan has the most, with 5 recalls. The 2018 model year has the fewest of the years we cover, with 4. Newer model years have had less time to collect recalls, so a low count on a recent year is not a guarantee.
No. None of the 9 Nissan Titan recalls on file carries a do-not-drive or park-outside advisory from NHTSA.
