- A quick charging battery that overheats increases the risk of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will update the battery software, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed June 3, 2026. This is a phased recall. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's numbers for this recall are R24B2, P4A38, and P5A22.
- NHTSA's note
- Owner's 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 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 25,704 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 85% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2019 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Nissan vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 25 times before this, most recently in July 2024 as 24V560000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 2 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 416 complaints with NHTSA, 70 of them before this campaign was filed. 291 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in March 2019, 5 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 24V071000 (back over prevention), 23V494000 (vehicle speed control), 23V048000 (equipment), 20V570000 (visibility).
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 September 20, 2024 as campaign 24V700000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
