What is being recalled

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2012 through 2014 Frontier vehicles manufactured from November 28, 2012, through December 17, 2013. In the affected vehicles, a circuit breaker may have been installed incorrectly causing the main wire harness connected to the circuit breaker to face outward, potentially contacting a metal bolt located on the A-pillar.

Why it is dangerous

The bolt may wear through the wire harness covering, resulting in an electrical short which could cause a fire.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the circuit breaker orientation. If the circuit breaker orientation is incorrect, dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began on March 17, 2014. Owners may contact Nissan at 1-800-647-7261.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 14V-052 when calling a dealer.
