Recalls
7 vehicle recalls from the manufacturer. Repairs are free. Check your VIN to see if one is still open on your car.
Electrical, Brakes (hydraulic) Vehicle recall #13V445000 · 2013 · 151,695 vehicles
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, during light braking on rough roads, the antilock brake system (ABS) brake pressure output software May lead to an increase in stopping distance.
Why it matters: The increased stopping distance May increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the ABS, free of charge. The recall began on November 18, 2013.
Electrical, Airbags Vehicle recall #14V138000 · 2014 · 989,701 vehicles
What's wrong: Nissan north america, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 altima, leaf, pathfinder, and sentra, model year 2013 nv200 (aka taxi) and Infiniti jx35 and model year 2014 Infiniti q50 and qx60 vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the occupant classification system (ocs) software May incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty, when it is occupied by an adult.
Why it matters: If the ocs does not detect an adult occupant in the passenger seat, the passenger airbag 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.
The fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will update the ocs software, free of charge. The recall began on April 14, 2014.
Wheels Vehicle recall #14V229000 · 2014 · 334 vehicles
What's wrong: 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.
Why it matters: 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.
The fix: 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.
Brakes Vehicle recall #15V012000 · 2015 · 893 vehicles

During the assembly process, the front wheel hub assembly fasteners May not have been properly torqued.
Why it matters: 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.
The fix: 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.
