Buying a used 2023 Nissan Ariya? Check these 4 recalls first
The 2023 Ariya's record centers on two themes. One critical recall covers a steering wheel bolt that may be loose or missing. Three separate high-severity recalls all involve sudden loss of drive power, one of them attributed to a software glitch. Owner complaints track closely with that: 40 filed with NHTSA, which are unverified reports, weighted heavily toward electrical system (25), then power train and engine (9 each) and vehicle speed control. One crash is reported, with no fires and no injuries.
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 the steering wheel bolt recall was completed and check the wheel for any play or looseness.
- Ask the dealer or seller to confirm all three loss-of-power recalls are closed, including the software update.
- Ask directly whether the car has ever lost drive power, stalled or entered reduced power while driving.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Nissan dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
