  • EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELSCampaign 26V455000 · 15/07/2026

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2020-2026 Nissan Armada, 2011-2013 Infiniti QX56, and 2014-2027 QX80 vehicles equipped with 22" wheels. The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed on the certification label is incorrect, which can allow the vehicle to be overloaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

    Risk: An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.

    Fix: Dealers will install new labels, free of charge. Additionally, Nissan will mail replacement labels to owners. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed September 2, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available, anticipated Fall 2026. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's numbers for this recall are R26B1 and P6A13/4. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on July 16, 2026.

  • 11/30/2023· FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCECrash

    The car in front of me stopped short and neither the Collision Warning or Emergency Braking activated or alerted at all, making no attempt to stop the vehicle, resulting in a collision.

  • 10/29/2025· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE

    Battery drain happens and vehicle Will be hard to start or not start at all. New battery was installed and 4 months later, same issue. It has been taken into dealership multiple times and they can never recreate the issue and have found nothing wrong with the vehicle to repair. This has caused wife and kids to be stranded because vehicle won’t start. No warning lights, nothing that the dealership found to cause issue.

  • 08/24/2025· VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE

    The vehicle radiator fan clutch engaged all the time and slowed acceleration responsiveness. This could cause safety issues when the vehicle responds to gas differently. This seemed to be a common component that goes out on Armada.

  • 08/19/2026· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

    The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Armada. The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced abnormal battery drain, and the vehicle failed to immediately start. The contact stated that the ABS warning light was illuminated during the failure. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The battery was fully charged at the dealer, and the following day the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

  • 08/16/2023· FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

    I was approaching a railroad track, and my truck slammed on brakes coming to a complete stop. With other cars behind me twice, this is the second time that has happened i was almost hit in the back

  • 06/25/2026· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE

    Check engine light and collision lights come on at start of vehicle due to the wiring harness issue. The throttle body and EMC have been replaced. This is a huge safety concern as it effects the engine and the operation of the vehicle. The problem continues even after the dealer has confirmed and reproduced the issue.

  • 05/22/2023· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

    THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD, INFOTAINMENT, AND CLIMATE CONTROLS GO BLANK, THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. TODAY, EVERY WARNING LIGHT ON THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD LIT UP BUZZING, HAD TO PULL OVER TO TURN OFF CAR, OPEN DOOR AND RE START. THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING, AND DANGEROUS. THIS GIVES NO WARNING AT ALL, IT JUST HAPPENS. BEEN TO THE DEALER 6 TIMES NOW, ON OUR WAY FOR 7. TWO TIMES WE WERE AT THE DEALER WE WERE TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL MANUFACTURER PUTS OUT A SOFTWARE NEW UPDATE, THE CHANGED ENTIRE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM, USB PORTS ETC, THE PROBLEM HAS SEEMED TO HAVE GOTTEN WORSE.

  • 04/28/2025· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

    The battery in our car has repeatedly drained for no reason. There seems to be an issue with the battery not charging the alternator correctly. At times this causes electrical components to go out.

  • 02/10/2025· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

    2022 Nissan Armada AWD battery is being drained for no apparent reason and system check does not reveal anything. Replaced original battery of just over two years and the new battery was drained within six months. Have seen where there are class action lawsuits for years 2019-2021, but nothing on the 2022 vehicle.
