Buying a used 2018 Nissan Frontier? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 25 owner complaints on file

The 2018 Nissan Frontier has 2 recalls in this group, covering a key ignition issue that may shut off the engine and a backup camera image that can remain off. Engine shutoff is the standout operational concern in these titles. NHTSA lists 25 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, with 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries reported. Electrical system complaints number 5, unknown or other and service brakes each 4, and suspension 3. Those reports do not confirm recall-related failures.

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. Request documentation of the key ignition recall repair.
3. Verify camera recall completion and test the backup image.
4. Ask about brake and suspension symptoms and repair history.
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.
