Nissan recalls model year 2022 Pathfinders

Nissan North America is recalling 3,030 model year 2022 Pathfinders.

Insufficient welds in affected vehicles may allow the secondary hood latch retainer bracket to detach from the front bumper assembly.

A detached secondary hood latch may allow the hood to open if the primary latch is not engaged, obstructing the driver's view and increasing the risk of a crash.

What to do

Dealers will inspect and replace the secondary hood latch bracket -- as necessary -- free of charge.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on October 21, 2021.

Owners may contact Nissan customer service at (800) 867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is PC840.
