What's wrong, in plain English

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.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your Titan is affected.
2. Contact a Nissan dealer, or call Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261, to have the engine wiring harness inspected.
3. The repair, including replacement of the harness if needed, is free.

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 20V759000.
