Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.

Recall campaigns 5 of 5

22V4200002022-06-13

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH

An unsecured hood could unexpectedly open while driving, obstructing the driver's view, and increasing the risk of a crash.

21V0200002021-01-20

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH

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.

16V2440002016-04-26

AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION

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.

15V6810002015-10-20

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

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.

15V0120002015-01-14

SERVICE BRAKES

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.

This page is about a model, not a car

Two 2015 NISSAN PATHFINDERs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
