What's wrong, in plain English

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.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
2. Contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669.
3. Nissan will provide a corrected label and installation instructions, free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 18V240000.
