Recalls and investigations
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.

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.

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.

COUPLE OF THINGS, FIRST THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG IS SET TO OFF WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT SITTING THERE, AND I HAVE A BLINKING AIRBAG LIGHT, AT ALL TIMES NO MATTER WHAT. SECOND, THERE IS A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHEN I TURN MY HEATER ON. I CAN ALSO FEEL THE VIBRATION WHEN I'M STILL. THE SUV ONLY HAS ABOUT 44K MILES. I SEE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. I'M DEFINITELY DISAPPOINTED.

IN OCTOBER 2019, OUR CAR STARTED MAKING A RATTLING SOUND IN THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE. MY HUSBAND DISCOVERED THAT IT STOPPED WHEN THE AIR SYSTEM (HEATING OR COOLING) WAS TURNED OFF. WE TOOK IT IN TO A MECHANIC AND HE STATED IT SOUNDED LIKE THE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY. WHEN WE FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR (2 YEARS AGO- USED), THE FIRST WEEK WE HAD IT THE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY WENT BAD AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. LUCKILY THE DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM REPLACED IT WITHOUT CHARGING US. WE WERE SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THE SAME SYSTEM IS FAILING AFTER ONLY 44,000 MILES. IT FAILED AT 33,000 MILES THE FIRST TIME. IT WAS RECOMMENDED TO NOT DRIVE THE CAR FAR DISTANCES WITH THE AIR SYSTEM ON AS THEY ARE UNSURE WHAT COULD HAPPEN TO THE ASSEMBLY OR ITS EFFECT ON THE ENGINE IF IT GETS WORSE. THEY RECOMMEND REPLACING IT AGAIN. WE WERE SURPRISED THIS PIECE SHOULD FAIL TWICE IN THE 77,000 MILES ON THE CAR. NOT CONFIDENT THAT REPLACING IT IS THE ANSWER AS ONE WOULD EXPECT IT TO FAIL AGAIN SINCE THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THE PART.
Other or unspecified, Nov 10, 2019
THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR WOULD NOT STAY UP. IT BEGAN WITH NOT GOING ALL THE WAY UP, BUT EVENTUALLY HUNG STRAIGHT DOWN AND COULD NOT PUT IT IN ANY OTHER POSITION. IT HANGS IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE AND CANNOT SEE TO DRIVE. WE ATTEMPTED VELCRO TO ATTACH IT TO THE ROOF, BUT IT WOULD ALL OF A SUDDEN GIVE WAY DROPPING ON MY HEAD (I AM SHORT AND CLOSE TO THE WINDSHIELD) OR IN FRONT OF MY HUSBAND'S FACE WHERE HE COULD NOT SEE. IT DROPS DOWN WITH NO WARNING (PRESSING ON BRAKES, TURNING, ETC). NISSAN REPORTED THIS HAS HAPPENED IN OTHER NISSAN PATHFINDERS, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME. OUR PASSENGER SIDE IS BEGINNING TO DO THE EXACT SAME THING.

LUGNUTS COMPLETELY FELL OFF, STEM BROKE, AND WHEEL FLEW UP INTO WHEEL WELL CAUSING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ACCIDENT AT 60 MPH ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE WITH NO PULL OFF DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO MOVE CAR AND MAJOR DAMAGE TO CAR. SECOND TIME IN CAR HISTORY HAS HAD LUGNUTS FALL OFF AND BREAK STEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY FAILED TO ACCELERATE; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY WHILE IN REVERSE. AFTER RECHARGING THE BATTERY, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY FOR SEVERAL MINUTES BEFORE THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO KEATING NISSAN (333 INTERSTATE 45 SOUTH, CONROE, TX) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 37487331. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.
Other or unspecified, Oct 8, 2019
JUST NOW PASSED 85K MILES ON MY PATHFINDER. HORRENDOUSLY LOUD AND EMBARRASSING CLATTERING NOISE COMING FROM FRONT OF CAR. NISSAN DIAGNOSED THAT NEEDED TO HAVE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY REPLACED AT A RIDICULOUSLY HIGH PRICE OF $900! I DON'T HAVE $900. SO, IT'S 96 DEGREES OUT AND MY THREE GIRLS AND I ARE TRYING NOT TO HAVE HEAT STROKES IN OUR ONLY FORM OF TRANSPORTATION. WHERE'S THE RECALL NISSAN? I'VE READ HUNDREDS OF OTHER REVIEWS WITH SAME ISSUE.
Power train, Engine, Sep 24, 2019
MY 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER WAS PURCHASED IN NOV. 2018. IT'S BEEN IN THE NISSAN SHOP NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE NOV. WE HAVE ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION STUDDERING/DELAYED ACCELERATION. IT CANT BE REPRODUCED ON DEMAND SO IT'S HARD TO DIAGNOSE. YOU HAVE TO LET OFF THE GAS BEFORE IT WILL GO PROPERLY. ALSO, THE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE WITHIN 1 MONTH WITH NEW PARTS . THIS 3RD TIME ONE OF THE FANS WILL NOT CONTINUE TO BLOW. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT THESE 2 ISSUES ARE VERY COMMON WITH THIS VEHICLE. DISAPPOINTED DOESN'T EVEN DESCRIBE WHAT I FEEL ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND HAVING A DEALERSHIP LIKE GRAY DANIELS FORD IN MS TREAT US THE WAY THEY HAVE DOES NOT HELP WITH THE ISSUES.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Engine, Sep 13, 2019
I HAD MY TRANSMISSION FLUSHED AT APPROX. 52K MILES ON 2/23/2019. IN APRIL 2019, THE TRANSMISSION BEGIN HAVING ISSUES. RPMS WOULD RIDE HIGH; HOWEVER, TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT UP-SHIFT. OCCURRED DESPITE ACCELERATOR PRESSED TO THE FLOOR. WHEN RELEASING THE ACCELERATOR AND PRESSING AGAIN, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD JERK AND BEGIN TO UP-SHIFT. ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT. CAN OCCUR WHEN TAKING OFF AFTER STOPPING AT AN INTERSECTION, AND SUDDENLY WHEN SMOOTHLY ACCELERATING UPON ENTERING FREEWAYS. HAVING SAFETY CONCERNS, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN AND EXPLAINED THE ISSUE AS NOTED ABOVE ON 5/8/2019. DESPITE TELLING JOSH KERN THE ISSUE WAS THE TRANSMISSION, I LATER DISCOVERED HE RECORDED THE ISSUE AS "... THE THROTTLE WASN'T RESPONSIVE." HE CALLED SAYING THE CAR WAS DRIVEN 60 MILES AND THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED BY PERFORMING A "IDLE RELEARN" AND "SELF LEARN" SOFTWARE UPDATE. BECAUSE OF THIS, THE VEHICLE NOW IDLED VERY HIGH. AFTER DRIVING IT A FEW DAYS, THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN. REVIEWING THE SERVICE DOC, I REALIZED THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY DRIVEN 1 MILE AND NOT THE 60 MILES. IT ALSO HAD NOTES FROM THE TECHNICIAN THAT "ISSUE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED." I RETURNED TO NISSAN TO SPEAK TO THE SERVICE MANAGER, BUT HE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. WHILE THERE, I REQUESTED ALL HARD-COPIES OF WORK PERFORMED. ON ONE PAGE WAS WRITTEN NOTES ABOUT ERASING CODES, MENTION OF THE TRANS., ENGINE & IACV-AAC, ECM ON FADED PRINT-OUT OF CODES. MADE OTHER ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT MANAGER WITH NO SUCCESS. IN AUG.2019, THE DEALERSHIP GM PUT ME IN CONTACT W STEVE ZANI (ASST. SERV. MGR.) HE WAS VERY HELPFUL, BUT WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE ISSUE. HIGH IDLE FROM UPDATE SEEMS TO BE MASKING ISSUE FREQUENCY. CALLED NISS CON AFFAIRS-CASE36982668. RENEE' WAS NO HELP. REFUSED TO UPDATE CASE OR CALL DEALERSHIP. HAD MY NAME WRONG, ELUSIVE AND SHORT ON PHONE. WORRIED ISSUE NOT GIVEN PROPER CREDENCE; DESPITE DEFECT AND SAFETY CONCERNS.
Power train, Sep 11, 2019
WHEN ACCELERATING AND MAINTAINS NORMAL COMMUTER SPEEDS 34-70MPH THE TRANSMISSION IS LOUD AND IN INSTANCES JERKS AS IF IT IS NOT CATCHING THE NEXT GEAR. MY CAR IS 4YRS OLD WITH 77K MILES AND THERE SHOULDN'T BE A NEED FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION, WHICH LOCAL NISSAN DEALER SAYS I NEED. REVIEW HAVE SHOWN THIS IN THE PAST SO I WANT TO MAKE AWARE THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED.
Other or unspecified, Engine, Aug 29, 2019
MY VEHICLE IS FINANCED THROUGH NISSAN AND I STILL HAVE 10 MONTHS OF THE NOTE LEFT. I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN PROVIDED A DIAGNOSIS THAT MY COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY MOTOR AND BEARINGS HAVE FAILED AND WILL NEED REPLACEMENT. MANY NISSAN PATHFINDER OWNERS ARE POSTING SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THEIR CARS. I HAVE ONLY APPROXIMATELY 68,000 MILES ON THE CAR. BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS, THERE MAYBE AN UNDERLYING PROBLEM WITH THE PART. I AM PROVIDED A $1000 ESTIMATE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. I WANT YOU TO TAKE THIS COMPLAINT SERIOUSLY AND PROTECT THE VEHICLE OWNERS.
Power train, Engine, Aug 26, 2019
I HAVE A 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER STARTING AT 64000 MILES I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM. LATELY I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WHEN I PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR DOESN'T WANT TO GO. IN ADDITION, IT SEEMS TO HYDROPLANE AND JERK IF THE ROAD IS WET AND YOU GO OVER 40 MILES PER HOUR. THIS IS SO VERY DANGEROUS!! IS THIS BEING ADDRESSED BY NISSAN? I NEED SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME FOR A FIX.
Other or unspecified, Aug 10, 2019
I PURCHASED A 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER ON MAY 2015 AND THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NO LONGER STAY UP, IT HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. WILL REQUIRE REPLACEMENT BECAUSE OF A SAFETY ISSUE.
Other or unspecified, Aug 2, 2019
THE COOLING FAN STARTED MAKING A TERRIBLE NOISE AT AROUND 48,000 MILES. THE NOISE WOULD HAPPEN WHEN THE FAN KICKED ON. THE FAN WAS STARTING TO SEPARATE FROM THE BEARING. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY WOULDN'T COVER IT. I TOLD THEM MANY OTHER NISSANS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THEY SAID THEY WOULD PUT MY COMPLAINT ON FILE. I HAD TO PAY FOR A NEW FAN OUT OF POCKET.

AT RANDOM, LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION AT INITIAL TAKE OFF AND/OR WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY OR STREET EVEN IF PRESSING GAS PEDAL TO FLOOR. VEHICLE WILL START WITHOUT PRESSING BRAKE. BRAKE LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER CAR IS TURNED OFF. I'VE HAD CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND BRAKE WORK DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM TO NO AVAIL. ALSO, I WANTED TO CHECK SPEED CONTROL AS A AFFECTED PART BUT IT WOULDN'T SELECT.

I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE STALLING OUT. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND NO PROBLEM COULD'VE BEEN FOUND UNTIL THE LAST TIME. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE BRAKES WOULD COME ON AUTOMATICALLY. THEY BELIEVE IT WAS A SENSOR PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.
Air bags, Jul 9, 2019, crash
I WAS BACKING FROM A PARKING SPACE WHEN I STRUCK A PASSING CAR WITH THE BOAT HITCH ON MY REAR BUMPER. IT WAS A LOW-IMPACT COLLISION AS WE WERE BOTH MOVING SLOWLY IN A PARKING LOT. AFTER GETTING OUT OF THE CAR TO SPEAK WITH THE OTHER DRIVER, I RETURNED TO FIND THAT ALL OF THE AIR BAGS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR (INCLUDING FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND CURTAINS FROM THE FRONT WINDOW TO THE REAR) HAD DEPLOYED. NO ONE WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME OF IMPACT BUT ME. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR DEPLOYED. I KNOW NISSAN HAS HAD PASSENGER AIR BAG PROBLEMS IN THE PAST AND BEFORE THE ACCIDENT, MINE OFTEN SHOWED THAT AIR BAGS WERE ON WHEN NO ONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. YOUR DATABASE SAYS THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY VIN NUMBER SO I ASSUME THAT PREVIOUS OWNERS HAD THE MATTER ADDRESSED BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN 2018. MY CIRCUMSTANCE ISN'T IDENTICAL TO THE AIR BAG RECALL BUT IS CERTAINLY IRONIC. ALTHOUGH I WASN'T HURT, THE AIR BAGS SURELY DIDN'T HELP ME. THE WRONG ONES DEPLOYED AND WILL COST $6,500 TO REPLACE. CAN YOU DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME?

PATHFINDER RECAL. CAR "SHUTTERS" AND "STUTTERS" WHEN TRANSITIONING IN BETWEEN GEARS. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE IN DRIVE, ENTERING A FREEWAY ON RAMP, MOVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE, IT WAS AS IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. THE CAR HAS 69,000 MILES ON IT, AND FOR THE PAST YEAR, AT APPROXIMATELY 53,000 MILES, IT'S BEEN "STUTTERING AND SHUTTERING" WHILE TRANSITIONING IN BETWEEN GEARS.

COOLING FAN STARTED MAKING NOISES WHEN AC OR HEAT IS AT 58K. SOUNDS LIKE THE FAN BEARINGS ARE SHOT. I SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON LINE FOR THIS. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE RESOLVED BEFORE THE FAN COMES APART AND TAKES OUT THE RADIATOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS APPLIED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NALLEY NISSAN OF CUMMING (1310 BUFORD HWY, CUMMING, GA 30041, (678) 648-7290) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STOP LAMP SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.
Service brakes, Jun 8, 2019
THE BRAKE RELAY IS DEFECTIVE. IT'S CAUSING THE CAR TO THINK THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED AND YOU CANNOT USE THE ACCELERATOR. THE NISSAN TECH NOTES EVEN RECOMMEND BYPASSING PART OF THE SYSTEM WHEN YOU REPAIR. MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD IF YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE IN AN INTERSECTION OR WHILE EGRESSING FROM A PARKING LOT.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Other or unspecified, May 8, 2019
VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE (NO THROTTLE RESPONSE) RANDOMLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. RPMS DO NOT BUDGE DESPITE PEDAL BEING TO THE FLOOR. PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE MORE COMMON WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. SHIFTING VEHICLE I TO NEUTRAL BRIEFLY AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE SEEMS TO RESOLVE PROBLEM, BUT THIS ISN'T AT ALL SAFE TURNING INTO IN AN INTERSECTION WITH CARS COMING. SEEMS KIND OF RIDICULOUS THIS ISN'T A BIG DEAL TO AN OEM.
