Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchJun 13, 2022
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2013-2016 Pathfinder vehicles. On certain Pathfinder vehicles, the secondary hood latch may malfunction and remain in the unlatched, unsecured, position when the hood is closed.
An unsecured hood could unexpectedly open while driving, obstructing the driver's view, and increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the bell crank assembly, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed March 26, 2025. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall are R22A2 R22A3 and R24B7.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchJan 20, 2021
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2013-2015 Nissan Pathfinder vehicles. The location of the brake light switch may cause the brake light switch relay to repeatedly open and close. Overtime, this can cause the relay to stick in the "ON" position, with the brake lights remaining illuminated even when the brakes are not applied. Additionally, this may interfere with the brake-shift interlock, allowing the driver to shift the vehicle out of the "Park" position, without depressing the brake pedal.
Continual illumination of the brake lights can prevent other drivers from realizing the vehicle is actually slowing down, increasing the risk of a crash. With the brake override activated, the driver will not be able to accelerate normally, increasing the risk of a crash. The driver can shift the vehicle out of the "PARK" position without depressing the brake, allowing the vehicle to rollaway, increasing the risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, either re-install the brake light switch or swap positions with the Automatic Speed Control Device (ASCD) switch; depending on the model year vehicle. In addition, the brake light relay will be replaced with a new one. All repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began March 1, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall PC786. Note: this recall supersedes 16V-380.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchMay 31, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Pathfinder vehicles manufactured June 20, 2012, to June 13, 2013. The brake light switch may have been installed incorrectly causing the relay to make intermittent contact and repeatedly cycle. This may result in the relay remaining in the "ON" position, causing the brake lights to remain illuminated even when the brakes are not applied. Additionally, the brake light switch may interfere with the brake-shift interlock, allowing the driver to shift the vehicle out of the "Park" position, without depressing the brake pedal.
If the brake override is activated, the driver will not be accelerate normally, increasing the risk of a crash. If the brake lights remain illuminated, other drivers may fail to stop when the vehicle actually brakes, increasing the risk of a crash. If the driver inadvertently shift the vehicle out of the "PARK" position without depressing the brake, the vehicle may rollaway, increasing the risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake light switch and, as necessary, replace the relay, free of charge. The recall began on July 25, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationApr 26, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF, Sentra, and Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60, QX60 Hybrid, and Q50 Hybrid, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue and Infiniti Q50, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Murano Hybrid, and Chevrolet City Express, 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid, and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. 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. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669, Infiniti customer service at 1-888-833-3216 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.

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.

Structure, body, hood, hinge and attachmentsJan 26, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Nissan Pathfinder vehicles manufactured June 20, 2012, to November 18, 2013, 2014 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid vehicles manufactured July 18, 2013, to November 18, 2013, 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles manufactured November 29, 2011, to June 14, 2013, and 2014 QX60 vehicles manufactured May 16, 2013, to November 18, 2013, and 2014 Infiniti QX60 Hybrid vehicles manufactured July 18, 2013, to November 18, 2013. In the affected vehicles the hood release cable assembly may have been installed incorrectly preventing the latching claw from fully engaging. The secondary latch may remain in the open position when the hood is closed.
If the primary hood latch is released and the secondary latch fails during operation of the vehicle, it could cause the hood to open during vehicle operation impairing the driver's vision, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will modify the angle of the hood release mechanism to provide additional length to the release cable, free of charge. The recall began on March 9, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Service brakesJan 14, 2015
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles manufactured August 14, 2014, to November 5, 2014, and 2014-2015 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured August 12, 2014, to November 15, 2014. During the assembly process, the front wheel hub assembly fasteners may not have been properly torqued.
The under-torqued fasteners may result in a brake caliper separating from the wheel assembly causing a reduction in braking performance or reduced steering control. These conditions increase the risk of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and tighten any loose bolts to the proper specification, free of charge. The recall began February 2, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Wheels, lugs/nuts/bolts/studsMay 2, 2014
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014 Pathfinder and Rogue vehicles and 2014 Infiniti QX60 vehicles. The right side wheels of the affected vehicles may have one lug nut each that was not properly tightened.
If the lug nut becomes loose from not being properly tightened, it may fall off, allowing the other lug nuts to become loose, possibly resulting in a wheel separation, and increasing the risk of a crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and tighten any loose lug nuts to the correct specification, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin by the end of June 2014. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Air bags, frontalSep 26, 2013
Nissan North America Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014 Pathfinders manufactured from July 25, 2013, to September 5, 2013 with Almond interiors only. The instrument panel tear seam on the passenger frontal air bag was incorrectly cut on the back side of the instrument panel which could cause the air bag to not deploy properly.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the improper air bag deployment may increase the risk of personal injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the affected instrument panel assemblies, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.

BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE IS OFF, AND WHEN THE ENGINE IS ON, THE BRAKE LIGHTS STILL STAY ON EVEN WHEN THE BRAKES AREN'T BEING PRESSED. ALSO, SOMETIMES THE CAR WON'T ACCELERATE WHEN YOU PUSH THE GAS PEDAL. THIS OCCURS AFTER YOU HIT THE BRAKES, AND WHEN IT HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE WON'T GO OVER 20 MPH.

CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS SINCE THE VEHICLE PURCHASED AS NEW ON 05/08/2014. REPORTED TO NISSAN DEALER AT REGULAR SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION IS JERKING AND BUCKING IN EARLY JANUARY 2017. SINCE THEN VEHICLE AT DEALER SERVICE MANY TIMES ONCE FOR ALMOST 4 WEEKS AT A STREACH. MULTIPLE SOFTWARE AND PROGRAM/UPDATES WITH NO RESOLUTION OF PROBLEM. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS NOT RESPONDING TO CALLS OR MESSAGES LEFT. 8/08/17 TRANSMISSION REBUILT WITH NO CORRECTION OF PROBLEM. 9/11/2017 TRANSMISSION REPLACED WITH NO RESULTS. AS OF 10/31/17 PATHFINDER AT DEALER. AS PER SHOP MANAGER JUDDER/JUTTER STILL PRESENT AND THEY ARE WAITING FOR NISSAN RESPONSE. THE TRANSMISSION JERKS AND JUMPS SHAKING WHOLE VEHICLE. NISSAN SERVICE UNABLE TO FIX AFTER MUTIPLE ATTEMPTS OVER A SPAN OF 11 MONTHS. I BELEIVE THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE TO ALL IN THE VEHICLE AND AROUND IF TRANSMISSION FAILS, SINCE THIS VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED TO CARRY 7 PASSENGERS. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THE SALES DEPARTMENT ARE IGNORING MESSAGES. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS REGULARLY WHEN VEHICLE TRAVELLING IN URBAN ROADS UNDER 40 MPH SPEED. THIS VEHICLE PURCHASED AS NEW. SERVICED ONLY BY NISSAN DEALER WHERE IT WAS BROUGHT FROM.

MY DRIVERS SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE ALL OF A SUDDEN BROKE. I HAD TO CRAWL OUT OF MY CAR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE TO EXIT/ENTER MY VEHICLE. AND, MY DRIVERS SIDE VISOR IS BROKEN AND HANGS DOWN--OBSTRUCTING MY VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. BOTH PROBLEMS OCCURRED AT 53,000 MILES AND ARE A SAFETY HAZARD. BOTH PROBLEMS ALSO SEEM TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE NISSAN PATHFINDER AND OF COURSE ARE NOT COVERED WHEN BASIC WARRANTY EXPIRES AT 36,000 MILES.

THE SUN VISORS IN MY 2014 NISSAN PATHFINDER SV ARE DEFECTIVE AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN IN THAT AS I AM DRIVING THE SUN VISOR FALLS DOWN AND COVERS MY VIEW OF THE ROAD, THUS CAUSING A POTENTIAL HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. A REVIEW OF ONLINE COMPLAINTS HAS INDICATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MANY 2014 & NEWER NISSAN PATHFINDERS. THE MECHANISMS THAT HOLDS THE SUN VISOR UP CRACKS AND WILL NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. THERE IS NO WAY TO KEEP THE SUN VISORS IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY NISSAN IMMEDIATELY AS THE CONDITION CAN HAPPEN RANDOMLY AS THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN AND SUDDENLY THE SUN VISOR DROPS IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER CAUSING A HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION.

I STARTED SEEING THE AIRBAG INDICATOR FLASHING ON MY DASHBOARD. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN CAR DEALER. THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A WATER BOTTLE THAT ROLLED UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT AND CAUSED THE SENSOR TO BREAK. I BELIEVE THAT IS A BAD DESIGN FROM NISSAN, THAT ALLOWS A CRITICAL SENSOR TO BREAK EASILY BY A SOFT WATER BOTTLE THAT ROLLED UNDER THE SEAT, CAUSE THE AIRBAG NOT TO DEPLOY, WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES TO ME OR A FAMILY MEMBER SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THERE IS A RECALL ALREADY RELATED TO THAT SENSOR, THAT CAN CAUSE THE AIRBAG NOT TO DEPLOY, BUT I THINK PROTECTING THE SENSOR UNDER THE SEAT IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE, THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR SOMETIME BEFORE NOTICING THAT THERE MIGHT BE AN AIRBAG ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS PERFORMED, BUT NO FAILURE CODES WERE DETECTED. AFTER LEAVING THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND MAKING A STOP, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO NISSAN OF YORKTOWN HEIGHTS (3495 CROMPOND RD, YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, NY 10598(914) 737-3500) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

I EXPERIENCED ISSUES WITH BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE SUN VISORS WHERE THEY WOULD NO LONGER STAY UP. FROM THE DRIVER SIDE THIS OBSTRUCTS THE VISION WHICH CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY THIS OCCURRED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHERE IT WOULD SIGNIFICANT HURT A PASSENGER IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. I RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE AS WELL AS TALKED TO THE DEALER AND THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD AND KNOWN ISSUE. I HAVE ATTACHED A PICTURE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE BEFORE I GOT IT FIXED AT MY OWN COST. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS ITS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO KEEP THE VISOR OUT OF THE WAY ONCE THE VISOR BREAKS.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS DO NOT STAY UP AND DO NOT EXTEND FORWARD FULLY. AS A RESULT, THE VISOR HANGS IN THE DRIVER'S / PASSENGER'S LINE OF VISION, LIMITING ROADWAY VISIBILITY AND CREATING A POTENTIAL HEAD HAZARD IN AN ACCIDENT. PROBLEM IS PERSISTENT AND CAN ONLY BE FIXED BY REPLACING THE VISOR
Visibility/wiper, Aug 10, 2017
THE SUN-VISOR DOES NOT STAY UP AS NISSAN PLANNED AND IS CURRENTLY A SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE AS IT IS IN DIRECT SIGHT-LINE OF THE ROAD. IN ADDITION, WHEN TRYING TO BLOCK ANY SUN, THE VISOR DOES NOT PROVIDE CORRECT PROTECTION AS IT DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. IT'S EASY TO SEE BASED ON COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE ALONG WITH MANY ACROSS THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REVIEWED BY NHTSA
Visibility/wiper, Aug 9, 2017
THE SUN VISORS BLOCK THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER AND CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED. THIS IS THE SECOND SET OF SUN VISORS FOR THIS CAR AT $400.00 A POP EVERY TWO YEARS. IT HAS BLINDED ME OF ON COMMING TRAFFIC OFTEN. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I DRIVE THIS CAR. NISSAN IS VERY UN-CONCERNED OF MY SAFETY AS THEY ALMOST SAID.

THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN VISORS ARE NOT STAYING UP AND AT THIS TIME IN THE UP POSITION THE DRIVER VISOR IS 4 INCHES OFF THE CEILING AND HANGING IN THE FIELD OF VISION WHILE DRIVING, AND THE PASSENGER VISOR IS ABOUT 3 INCHES OF THE CEILING. THIS IS HAPPENING WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING.
Other or unspecified, Visibility/wiper, Jul 25, 2017
THE ISSUE IS THE PLASTIC INSIDE THE SUN VISORS BREAKS EASILY. I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THEM ONCE, AND NOW THEY'RE BOTH BROKEN AGAIN. WHEN THE INTERNAL PLASTIC COMPONENTS BREAK, THE VISOR HANGS DOWN AND RESTRICTS YOUR VISION AS YOU'RE DRIVING. YOU ARE UNABLE TO POSITION THE VISOR TO BLOCK THE SUN AS WELL, WHICH PRESENTS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE HAD TO RESORT TO CONNECTING TWO DOG COLLARS TOGETHER TO KEEP THE VISORS IN AN UP POSITION RATHER THAN SPEND $200-300 TO REPLACE THEM. NISSAN REFUSES TO REPLACE THE VISOR SINCE ITS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT WAS UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THEY ONLY COVER WARRANTY WORK FOR ONE YEAR. THIS OCCURRED ABOUT 18 MONTHS AFTER THE REPLACEMENT. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I WILL INCLUDE A VIDEO LINK FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THE WORKERS ARE VISIBLY FRUSTRATED WITH THE ISSUE. HTTPS://M.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=-OJQZBHNU2E THE DOOR HANDLES ARE AN ISSUE I HAVE PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED AS WELL. BOTH PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLES INTERNAL PLASTIC COMPONENTS HAVE BROKEN OFF. THIS PRESENTS AN EGRESS HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DISABLED AND YOU'RE UNABLE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW. ROLLING DOWN THE WINDOW AND OPENING THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE IS YOUR ONLY OPTION TO EGRESS THE VEHICLE. I WILL INCLUDE PICTURES AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE I CAN POP THE PANEL OFF OF THE PASSENGER DOORS AND SEND IN PHOTOS OF THE BROKEN INTERNAL PIECES. I HAVE ATTACHED THE INVOICE FROM THE FIRST REPLACEMENT WHICH OCCURRED AT JUST 14,714 MILES, ABOUT 7 MONTHS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED.

THE DRIVER SUN VISOR FLAPPED BACK AND FORTH. IT CAN'T STAY UP AND DOWN PROPERLY. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IT COME DOWN IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I TRIED TO USE IT THEREFORE I HAVE TO HOLD UP WITH ONE HAND WHILE MY OTHER HAND IS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I ONLY USE 6 TIMES DURING THE 3 YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT AND I AM THE FIRST OWNER. IT STARTED ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO BUT IT BECAME WORST NOW.
