Nissan Titan and Frontier may roll away in Park

NHTSA campaign 22V671000 · Reported 2022-09-07 · Nissan North America, Inc.

high How serious is it? About this label

A vehicle rolling away can hit a person, another car, or a building, so it is serious — but you can keep driving as long as you use the parking brake every time you park.

What's wrong, in plain English

In certain 2020 through 2023 Nissan Titan, 2020 through 2022 Frontier, and 2023 Z vehicles, the part inside the transmission that locks the vehicle in place when you shift into Park may not catch. If it does not, the vehicle can roll away on its own after you think it is parked. Nissan tells owners to set the parking brake every single time they park until the repair is made. Dealers will update the vehicle's computer software.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to check whether your vehicle is on the list. 2. Use the parking brake every time you park, starting now. 3. Contact your Nissan dealer or Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 to get the free software update.
