Nissan recalls 482,000 vehicles in US and Canada
Nissan Motor plans to recall 482,000 vehicles in the US and Canada because of possible engine problems due to manufacturing defects, according to the Japanese automaker and the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The models affected by the recall are fitted with either 1.5L 3-cylinder or 2.0L 4-cylinder VT-Turbo engines, including the 2021-2024 model-year Nissan Rogues SUVs, 2019-2020 model-year Altimas, 2019-2022 model-year Infiniti QX50s, and 2022 model-year Infiniti QX55s. The engines were found to have possible manufacturing defects in their bearings, according to the NHTSA, which could cause engine damage and lead to possible engine failure while being driven. The NHTSA noted that engine bearing failures do not typically occur immediately, but the problems tend to get worse over time.
Some 444,000 of the vehicles to be recalled were sold in the US, while 38,000 were sold in Canada. Nissan said it will send out letters to owners of the affected vehicles in August to check for and remedy any damage.
Nissan sold a total of 488,526 vehicles in the US in the first half of 2025, down just slightly from last year. The Rogue was its best-selling model in this period with 47,461 deliveries, while sales of the Altima sedan amounted to 26,298 units.
