Nissan has determined that the tire information label on some Model Year 2008 Nissan Xterra, Titan, and Frontier vehicles fails to conform to one of the requirements specified in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110 “Tire Selection and Rims.” The tire information label provides important safety information including recommended tire
inflation pressure and “vehicle capacity weight” (the maximum combined weight of occupants and cargo). The tire information label on some of the Applied Vehicles incorrectly lists the vehicle capacity weight. It is overstated by 2 to 106 pounds. The information on the tire information label must be correct because it is important that the combined weight of occupants and cargo is never exceeded.
Nissan has determined that the Anti-lock Brake System/Vehicle Dynamic Control (ABS/VDC) actuator in some 2008 Xterra vehicles may not have been manufactured properly. This could cause a reduction in brake force to one or both front wheels without warning, and could result in a crash. To prevent this potential condition, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign to replace the ABS/VDC actuator with a
2005–2006 NISSAN FRONTIER; VOLUNTARY RECALL CAMPAIGN FUEL CAP TETHER
Nissan has determined that some 2005-2006 model years Nissan Frontier King Cab vehicles may have a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety. There is a possibility that, in a severe side impact crash, the fuel filler cap tether may be stretched to the point of unscrewing the cap due to the structure of the vehicle body. This may result in fuel spillage which in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. To prevent this condition from occurring, Nissan is conducting a Voluntary Safety Recall Campaign to replace the filler cap tether (retainer) with a modified one free of charge.

During a recent side impact crash test done by the U.S. government, Nissan discovered that the front door system could be improved to address an unexpected result caused by the severe nature of the testing.
