Buying a used 2025 Nissan Altima? Check these 2 recalls first
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
- 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.
- Verify VIN-specific completion of the door recall.
- Request passenger air bag recall repair documentation.
- Ask about brake problems and related repair records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
