SEATS:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2023 Rogue, Pathfinder, and Infiniti QX60 vehicles. The driver's powered seat may not be fully secured to the seat frame, causing the seat frame welds to detach from the rear inboard seat bracket.
- What it can cause
- An unsecured seat with broken welds may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect the driver's seat rail clearance, and if necessary, replace the driver's seat cushion frame, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 10, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is PC966, PC967.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 12,400 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 81% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2023, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Nissan vehicles have been recalled over the seats 13 times before this, most recently in February 2022 as 22V111000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 824 complaints with NHTSA, 41 of them before this campaign was filed. 9 of those name the seats, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V080000 (engine and engine cooling), 25V437000 (engine and engine cooling), 24V156000 (seat belts), 24V154000 (air bags).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Nissan North America, Inc. with NHTSA on April 13, 2023 as campaign 23V268000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
