I went into the Nissan dealer with my Nissan Pro4x with 900 miles on with a lowspeed "thunking" sound coming from the rear end. On the highway the truck vibrates really bad at about 60-65 mph. The dealer (NUCAR Nissan of Allentown, Pa (484)223-0564, service writer Simone) inspected the vehicle and "road force balanced" the rear tires. Both rear tires were found to be bad.....900 miles on the vehicle! The dealer (Simone) claims they do not warranty tires, "Call Hankook", they told me. I called Hankook they provided me a reference number #[XXX] and told me they only deal with the dealer service department. I went back to NUCAR Nissan of Allentown, Pa. They (Simone) again told me they can't help me with warranty tires?!! This is an unsafe condition. I have not been driving the vehicle, except for short trips around town, because I'm afraid this condition will result in a tire failure just like the Firestone tire failures of the late 90's early 2000's. I have a copy of the dealers service report if you need it. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Jan 20, 2026

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2025 Altima, Sentra, 2025-2026 Frontier, and 2026 Kicks vehicles. The door strikers may have been improperly welded and break, allowing the door to open while moving. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 206, "Door Locks and Door Retention Components."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A door that opens unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion increases the risk of injury or a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will replace the door strikers, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 17, 2026. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 800-647-7261. Nissan's numbers for this recall are PD185 and PMA61. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning January 28, 2026.
