Defect. Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Nissan Z vehicles. The connectors for the right-side pedestrian detection sensors may be reversed in the front bumper harness, which can prevent the pop-up engine hood from activating as intended.

Risk. A pop-up engine hood that does not activate in a pedestrian crash can increase the risk of injury.

Remedy. Dealers will replace the front bumper harness, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 11, 2024. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R24B6.

Air Bags

Two defects are present simultaneously on the front passenger seating position of my 2024 Nissan Z. The passenger seat belt does not reliably latch. On several occasions the belt has released on its own while the vehicle was in motion, most frequently under hard cornering. On other occasions the belt appears fully latched but the seat belt warning light remains illuminated, indicating the buckle switch is not registering engagement. The passenger air bag status light indicates the front passenger air bag is turned off for occupants who should not trigger suppression. My [XXX], who is [XXX], and my [XXX], who is [XXX], both sit normally in the seat with no objects under or behind them. The air bag remains suppressed the majority of the time. It occasionally activates for a short period and then suppresses again on its own with no change in seating position or occupant weight. Because both failures affect the same seating position at the same time, a passenger in this vehicle can be left with neither a functioning seat belt nor a functioning air bag. The Nissan Z is a two-seat vehicle, so no alternate seating position exists. Nissan has issued prior recalls for occupant classification systems that misclassify adult passengers as children or classify an occupied seat as unoccupied, resulting in the passenger frontal air bag failing to deploy. I am reporting this so it can be evaluated against that failure mode. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOI

The rear hatchback window, and it will be available until Monday when we have an appointment to replace the shattered rear hatchback window. We were in the car at a stop light and the rear window literally exploded causing some glass shards to fall into the car. We had no idea what happened except the window was totally shattered and we could not see anything out of the back window which made it impossible to see what was behind us. No. We stopped immediately at a Nissan dealership in Melbourne, Fl and were told we don’t do windows here so get lost. Seriously! They wouldn’t even come out and look at the shattered window even though it is a 2024 and still under warranty. They totally blew us off and would have nothing to do with us. We have reported it to USAA and Glass Doctor will hopefully be bringing us a new window on Monday for $750. It’s hard to find the window because this Z is brand new to the fleet. There was nothing but a huge explosion as the window shattered.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
