Over 180,000 Nissan Frontier And Titan Models At Risk Of Rolling Away

Nissan has issued a recall impacting Frontier and Titan models across the United States.

The car manufacturer has revealed that reduced clearance could lead to contact between the edge of the parking pawl and the boss on the transmission case of vehicles equipped with its 9-speed automatic gearbox. This issue has been triggered by dimensional variation during the manufacturing process and could result in the parking brake not properly engaging if the vehicle is shifted into park, increasing the risk of a rollaway.

No less than 180,176 Nissan vehicles are involved in the recall. These consist of the 2020-2021 Nissan Frontier models built between June 10, 2020 and June 25, 2021, Nissan Frontiers from the 2022 model year manufactured between July 13, 2021 and July 14, 2022, as well as 2020-2022 Nissan Titan models built from December 19, 2019 to June 10, 2022.

Nissan has noted in its recall report with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is still developing a fix for the issue. In the interim, it will mail notification letters to all affected owners beginning July 20, advising them to apply the emergency brake and not solely rely on shifting the transmission into Park.

When a remedy is developed, Nissan will mail letters to customers and ask them to take their vehicle to a Nissan dealership to be repaired. Customers who have paid to have the issue fixed will also be reimbursed.
