We are having trouble with the passenger door being inoperative. It will not unlock with the fob or manually, trapping the occupant in the passengers seat. Using AI we determined this is not an isolated problem. A person of my age cannot get out of the car which could present a very serious problem for the occupant.

Since I purchased my 2022 Nissan Frontier, I have experienced recurring issues where, periodically while driving, all the indicator lights appear on the digital screen (as shown in the attached photo). When this happens, all the advanced driver assistance systems become nonfunctional, including cruise control, ABS brakes and radar detection. These incidents have occurred while driving on the highway. Over time, I brought the vehicle in for service, but the technicians indicated they could not find anything wrong. My frustration grew as the problem started occurring more frequently, especially when I was in the car with my wife and kids. This is a serious safety concern. I recently took the vehicle to the dealer again (March 2, 2026), where I was charged almost $500 for them to "reboot" the vehicle and assure me it was fixed. However, the issue reoccurred the very next day. For the first time, I am formally reporting this problem in hopes that something can be done. I am taking it back again this Monday. I do not feel comfortable selling the vehicle knowing it has this unresolved issue. I would appreciate any assistance you can provide, and you may contact me if you wish Thank you.

The light turned green. The truck got up to fourth gear and slipped all the lights on the dash lit up so I took it to the first transmission shop where they said transmission just went out at 75,140 miles pretty much the exact mileage for my first service according to the book in the glove box I took it to Nissan dealership where they said it was the shift selector needed to be changed for a total of $1600. I had it done. I drove it a half a mile down the road and it did it again. They said they drove it over 14 miles with no problem but my odometer says different now they’re telling me I need a new transmission for $9214.03. I’ve done a lot of research and googled other people having the same problem. I called Nissan corporation they offered to pay 60% for a new transmission. This tells me they know something is wrong with it. After taxes I will have spent over $11,800 for a new transmission at 75,000 miles. This should not have happened.

I was traveling on the highway doing 70 mph in the left lane when warning lights started appearing on the dash. The first light was an ABS light. 5 minutes later the truck completely died. I was able to coast across the right hand lane and make my way into the shoulder. With the vehicle completely shut down, I had lost power steering and brake effectiveness. Fortunately, traffic was light and I was able to avoid other vehicles. I was unable to restart the vehicle and had to have it towed to a Nissan dealer. It took them 2 months to diagnose and repair the issue. In the end, the cause was that a hole developed on top of the muffler. The heat escaping the hole was able to pass through an inspection hole in the frame and melt the electrical chassis wiring harness running through it. Parts replaced included: ECM (computer), IPDM (electrical distribution module), engine harness, chassis harness, and muffler.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Frontier. The contact stated that while driving uphill, the vehicle vibrated. The contact stated that the vibration increased as the contact decelerated. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the transmission parking pawl and the transmission control module had failed. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the dealer advised that the clutch might need to be repaired, but the contact advised the dealer to wait until the clutch displayed signs of failure. The contact stated while driving four months after the vehicle was repaired, the vehicle vibrated when the RPMs decreased, and the vehicle operated as intended when the RPMs increased. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the transmission fluid was replaced, but the failure persisted. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer for the clutch repair. While at the dealer, the contact was informed that the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to cost. The failure was progressively worsening. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

This truck was parked in the driveway for at least 24 hours. The battery was dead, so my fiancé got the jumper box out of the truck and popped the hood. After he lifted the hood, he got one of the clamps on the battery when the truck started to roll forward. He couldn’t get out in enough time and was run over. The truck can be inspected upon request.

I am reporting an issue with the audio head unit/touchscreen system in my truck. The unit consistently malfunctions by producing loud static noise when I increase the volume. In many instances, the radio completely shuts off or freezes, and I have to repeatedly press the on/off knob to get it working again. Sometimes it takes several tries before it functions normally. This problem creates a major distraction while driving, as I have to take my eyes off the road and manually reset the unit multiple times. This can be a safety hazard not only for me but also for others on the road. The issue has persisted despite normal use, and it seems to be a defect in the head unit itself. I am requesting that this issue be investigated for possible recall or repair coverage, as it affects both functionality and driver safety. This is not an isolated issue. After doing some research online, I found dozens of other drivers across different truck forums and complaint sites describing the exact same problem—sudden loud static, loss of audio, and needing to reset the system by cycling the power or restarting the vehicle. Many of these reports come from owners of 2021–2024 model year trucks nissan Frontiers. Car Make Model: Nissan Frontier 2022 SV Thank you.

“System fault” see owners manual. Forward emergency brake assist not working , reverse emergency brake assist not working. As well as the traction control was not working. Forward/Reverse Safety is a concern because if a vehicle cuts me off or person jumps in front or walks behind of my vehicle it will cause accident. The dealership confirmed the problem. As well as many people state they have had the same problem with same vehicle. Yes there were warning lights etc. this is not the first time this has happened atleast 20 times.

The rearview mirror has begun to delaminate causing a safety hazard of visibility. I have never once cleaned it with chemicals or touched the glass. I believe it was due to heat and vehicle parked outside over time. Temps do not get hotter than 97 degrees so this is a major concern for areas that receive high temps. Mirror is available for pictures or physical inspection. I will be bringing this to the dealerships attention during next service. The vehicle has 44,000 miles and this has never happened to any vehicle I have owned.

I took my 2022 Nissan Frontier SV 4x4 in for an oil change and a state inspection. The shop discovered that my left rear axle seal was leaking all over the brakes and rotors. As a result, it failed the inspection, and I had to spend $1,600 to get it repaired. The mechanic mentioned that it's unusual to see this issue on a 2022 model with only 27,000 miles.

CRUISE CONTROL SURGING VEHICLE BEYOND INITIAL SET LIMIT. I recently purchased my 2022 Nissan frontier 4x4 crewcab from a Texas dealership. After driving it for a week or so, I noticed that while the "Cruise Control" is engaged, any sort of incline ahead of the vehicle will cause the transmission to down shift and Rev up the engine to 5k+ rpms which causes the vehicle to Surge and speed up way above the set speed (ie: cruise set to 45mph, the consequence is the vehicle will surge up to 60mph at times and then let the vehicle slow back down to the 45mph speed set in the original setting.) I found that very unsafe and that my nissan frontier is not the only one that experiences this behavior. The internet has had a few reports/complaints on this very issue. According to some of these owners, there's a software update to address this issues. However, some dealerships will charge for this software update if your vehicle has gone past the 36k warranty date to the sum of $600 plus out of pocket. Meanwhile without that software update, the vehicle will surge unnecessarily and dangerously above the intended speed set initially. Respectfully, 2022 Nissan frontier 4x4 crewcab

The nut that holds the windshield wiper arm onto the vehicle backed itself off the bolt allowing the wiper arm assembly to pivot the wiper arm over the drivers side A pilar and rest on top of the drivers side rear view mirror where it got stuck, rendering the wiper inoperable This incident happened while driving on the interstate during a moderate rain storm, while traveling approximately 70-75 miles per hour. My own safety and the safety of others was compromised due to the lack of visibility out the front windshield while the wiper arm was not functioning and rain water was collecting on the windshield. Fortunately the at the time of the incident I was approximately 1/4 to 1/2 mile from an exit and was able to get off the interstate and wait at a gas station until conditions improved to the point the wiper was not needed. No waning lights or messages were produced by the vehicle, before or after the wiper malfunction. The vehicle was brought to the Nissan dealership it was purchased from, where they tightened the wiper nut. The dealership did not document this fix, so I contacted Nissan North America and an internal case was opened with them. At time of this report, I am still waiting to hear back from the dealership about taking the vehicle back to them to have it properly inspected and documented.

We have had multiple occasions when the dashboard read as "System Fault"with multiple warning/indicator lights. 12/12/23, while backing out of a parking space at low speed. 9/12/2024 while at a Red Light, and lightly letting off the brake. 9/13/24 while driving 65 mph . An appt was requested at the dealership of purchase for 9/17/24. An email notification was also received from the truck stating that the ABS System may be malfunctioning. When the alert warning/indicator lights appear, the alert states on the dashboard "Warning" "System Fault" "See Owners Manual" . The system generated email states "Your vehicle's antilock braking system may require service". We only received one notification from the vehicle related to the 9/12/24 alert.On 9/19/24 the dealership could not replicate or find a code related to the ABS System Fault and we were encouraged to bring the vehicle back if it happened again so they could run the code.The dealership would take the vehicle for a longer drive on 9/20/24 to try to replicate the issue. At this point, we filed a complaint with the manufacturer, and have not heard directly from the dealership if they have been able to replicate the warning. The concern for safety is that since the vehicle alerting that the ABS system may be require attention, there may be other electrical issues with the vehicle, along with braking issue concern. There was one occasion on 1/21/2024 with a system error message stating "warning when Parked apply parking brake" the vehicle had just been turned on and put in reverse. There is a large safety concern as this vehicle has had other safety issues including a half latch (where the doors would not open from inside or outside, requiring exiting through alternate door, a parking pawl recall, and transmission issues that we've brought forward in our formal complaint to the manufacturer. Including "Tow" alarm notifications to strengthen the safety concern of electrical issues with this vehicle.

In December 2021, I purchased a 2022 Nissan Frontier Pro-X. The vehicle comes with built-in navigation that, according to their website, should receive map updates quarterly. Since purchasing the vehicle, brand new, there have been no updates to the navigation system nor maps. I have gone back and forth with Nissan support and the dealership only to be told there are no updates. The maps are severely out of date, making a feature that many people rely on useless. Therefore, we are not getting full value of what we are paying for. This is a complaint for numerous Nissan owners as I've found in message board forums. Nissan is not addressing the problem and will not return my messages or address my concern directly.

I do not know what caused this to happen. There were no warning lights or messages. Prior to this incident the transmission would rev/speed up on its own for a few seconds (I don't know if this is relevant). Salesperson told me about this and said it was nothing to worry about. The vehicle is equipped with a sensor that brakes if you come to close to an object. This sensor has definitely worked in the past. I was backing up down a long driveway, approximately 50 yards.When I took my foot off of the gas pedal, it did not slow down. Instead it sped up and was uncontrollable. I looked down to make sure my foot was on the brake which it was. I then used both feet to push down on the brake but that did not work either. The vehicle did not stop until it ran into a building. If somebody would have been behind me they would have died or been seriously injured. If the building would not have been there, I might have died or been seriously injured due to the vehicle accelerating at a high speed on its own and the brakes failing to stop the vehicle. This incident happened yesterday so it has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or inspected by the manufacturer or insurance. It happened on private property and will not be inspected by the police.

2022 vehicle, have owned for less than two years. All cameras stopped working, even rear view camera when in Reverse. Went to dealer, and was quoted $5000 to fix issue, replace AVM control unit (Part # 284A1-9BU1A) Not covered under factory warranty due to having too many miles. It is a common issue to that particular model (2022 Frontier Pro-x) from what I've gathered online.

Driver's side powered seatback randomly tilts backward, losing the seat settings that the driver has set. Nissan and other Frontier owners say it is because of the way the driver gets in and out of the vehicle, especially by 'heavier drivers', and claim the driver hits the controls with the back of their leg when getting in or out of the vehicle. This requires the driver to adjust the seat each time this happens. I'm one of those 'heavier drivers', and have also noticed that on a few occasions, the seatback slowly tilted back while driving. Because Nissan said it would require a redesign of the seats, my dealer, with the approval of a Nissan regional technician, installed an on/off power switch that cuts the power to the seats so once you set the seat position and turn off the power, the seat doesn't move.

You will also see a picture of warning lights from May 10, 2023. I was told not to worry about them because the front sensor was probably wet. Nissan could not trace a problem code.

I have been told the dealer could not find the problem, which is odd because nissan connected services logs data from my truck and emails me when there is a fault, like abs system failure see dealer, I have had the truck to the dealer no less than 4 times when it was actually check and a few other they refused to even look at it. The last visit i had the warning lights all come on and i took it to another dealer and demanded they scan it with out shutting it off which would cause the system to reset and then they could find the fault again. This is frankly dangerous I have had the system fail in low traction / high wind areas where it was dangerous to be drving like that.
