Buying a used 2025 Nissan Altima? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 7 owner complaints on file

The 2025 Nissan Altima has 2 recalls in this group, addressing doors that may open and a passenger air bag that may not deploy. Both concern occupant protection and deserve specific repair documentation. NHTSA lists 7 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, including 2 crashes and 4 injuries. Service brakes account for 2 reports; hydraulic, air, and power train categories have 1 each. Those category labels alone do not establish a particular failure or connect complaints to either recall.

Before you buy

  1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
  2. Verify VIN-specific completion of the door recall.
  3. Request passenger air bag recall repair documentation.
  4. Ask about brake problems and related repair records.
  5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
