Nissan has recalled thousands of newer vehicles due to an issue with the models' center console display, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
Nissan North America, Inc. submitted the recall on May 15 for certain 2025 Frontier and Kicks vehicles, the NHTSA said. According to the recall notice, the center information display unit could display a blank screen when shifted into reverse, thus causing the vehicles to not be in compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.
"A rearview image that does not display can reduce the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash," the NHTSA notice said.
The two Nissan models affected by the recall, which the NHTSA says impact 79,755 vehicles, include:
Nissan Frontier 2025
Nissan Kicks 2025
Nissan owners affected by the recall should contact their dealers, who will update the software of their vehicle's center information display, free of charge, according to the NHTSA.
Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on July 1, the agency said.
The manufacturer numbers for this recall are PD152 and PMA48.
