Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchMay 28, 2020
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2018 Nissan Altima vehicles. If the primary hood latch is inadvertently released, there is an increased likelihood that the secondary hood latch may corrode over time.
Corrosion to the secondary latch may cause it to bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed. If the primary latch is inadvertently released again and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a stronger release spring in the hood release lever, a warning label near the secondary hood latch, and an Owners Manual addendum card with instructions on how to lubricate and maintain the secondary hood latch mechanism, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 30, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Note: Recall 16V-029 remains open for any unremedied 2013-2015 Altimas and this recall applies to all vehicles covered by 16V-029 even if those repairs have already been performed.

Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationDec 19, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Altima vehicles manufactured January 3, 2013, to July 29, 2013, 2015-2016 Rogue vehicles manufactured October 14, 2014, to August 12, 2016, and 2016 Maxima vehicles manufactured June 4, 2015, to August 19, 2015. An incorrect Occupant Classification System (OCS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) may have been installed in the front passenger seat. The incorrect ECU and seat combination may misclassify the front passenger seat occupant.
If the front passenger seat occupant is misclassified, the air bag may deploy incorrectly in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ECU and update the OCS software free of charge. The recall began February 13, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge. Interim notices were sent to owners on May 31, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available.

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Nissan Altima vehicles manufactured March 6, 2012, to December 31, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the secondary hood latch may bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed.
If the primary latch is inadvertently released and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
These vehicles were previously included in recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116, however the previous remedy plan may not have been performed consistently to remove the safety risk. To correct this issue, Nissan will re-notify all affected owners and dealers will replace the hood latch with a new one, free of charge. The recall began on February 17, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116.

Air bags, frontalOct 20, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Altima and Pathfinder vehicles, 2013-2014 Nissan Sentra vehicles, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles, 2014-2015 Infiniti QX60 vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles. The affected vehicles received an incorrect occupant classification system (OCS) control unit during a repair. These OCS control units may incorrectly classify the front passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult.
If the OCS does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger air bag would be deactivated. Failure of the passenger airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of injury to the passenger.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the OCS software, free of charge. The recall began on November 30, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

In the affected vehicles, due to an improperly installed o-ring that may not have been seated correctly at the time of assembly, fuel may leak during a crash from the area where the fuel sending unit attaches to the fuel tank.
If fuel leaks from between the fuel sending unit and the tank, it may increase the risk of a fire in the event of a crash.

Air bags, Aug 7, 2019
THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA IN APRIL. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON WHEN PASSENGERS SIT IN THE SEAT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF THE PURCHASE MEANING THE LIGHT SIGNALS AND NOTIFIES THE DRIVER THAT THE AIR BAG IS NOT ACTIVE OR ENGAGED. THIS DENOTES THAT AN AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR. EACH TIME THIS LIGHT HAS COME ON I HAVE SET UP AN APPTMENT WITH MYDEALER TO HAVE THE ISSUE FIXED. THE DIAGNOSTICS CHECK DOES NOT SHOW AN ERROR AND IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE SENSORS HAVE BEEN RESET EACH TIME, BUT DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE. MULTIPLE APPOINTMENTS WERE MADE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE, BUT NONE HAVE RECTIFIED THE SITUATION. I HAVE ASKED FOR THE CAR TO BE REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES, OR CORRECT THE ISSUE. NONE OF WHICH HAS BEEN FULFILLED. THE REQUEST FOR A REPLACEMENT HAS BEEN SIDE TRACKED BY BRINGING THE CAR IN FOR ANOTHER LOOK TO FIND THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT MY WINDOW OF TIME FOR A REPLACEMENT HAS PASSED DUE TO TRYING TO FIND A DIAGNOSTICS ERROR CODE. A CLAIM WAS FILED WITH NISSAN CORPORATE CONSUMER AFFAIRS, BUT NO UPDATE OR PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN OVER TWO WEEKS. AS OF TODAY THE 11TH DAY SINCE MY LAST REPORTED ISSUE, THE CLAIM ASSOCIATE IS JUST NOW STARTING TO LOOK INTO THIS. THE CLAIM WAS CLOSED WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE STATING I COULD NOT BE REACHED, BUT NO PHONE CALL OR MESSAGE WAS MISSED OR LEFT FROM NISSAN CORPORATE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TOMES EACH DAY LOOKING FOR AN UPDATE OR RESOLUTION AND CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE PROMPTLY CALLED CONSUMER AFFAIRS BACK DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE. AT THIS POINT NO ONE IS ABLE TO GIVE ME ANY INDICATION OF NEXT STEPS.[XXX]. THANKS.

I WAS TOLD THAT THEY CLEARED AN ERROR CODE BUT NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL NOT REOCCUR AND THAT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL ON THE VEHICLE AND IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN I WILL HAVE TO COME OUT OF MY POCKET FOR $1000 OR SO DOLLARS EVEN THOUGH I A EXTENDED WARRANTY ON IT THAT SOMEHOW DOESN'T COVER. I FEEL AS THOUGH THE ISSUE WAS NOT FIXED THE FIRST TIME AND THEY DID THE BARE MINIMUM AND PASSED THE REST ON TO THE CUSTOMER.
