Details

What's wrong: Nissan north america, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2022 Frontier vehicles. The seat belt bracket mounting bolts on the left-rear seat may have been incorrectly tightened. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 207, "seating systems," 209, "seatbelt assemblies," and 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages."

Why it matters: During a crash, a loose seat belt bracket may break, causing a loss of seat belt restraint and increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Dealers will replace the bolts on the left-rear seat and repair any damaged threads as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were January 27, 2022.
