Known issues on the 2000 Frontier. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year. Three cover aftermarket corner, bumper, and headlamp assemblies sold for use on this truck that lack the required amber side reflectors, reducing visibility and raising crash risk; a fourth covers a tail light socket that may be molded with insufficient force to retain the bulb, so brake or tail lamp function can fail; a fifth covers the fuel pump terminal on the fuel-sending unit, where the plastic molding can crack, letting the terminal strip corrode until it breaks and stops the fuel pump, which can stall the engine or prevent a restart without warning. The sixth covers automatic transmission models where a shift cable lock plate can be too brittle and break, so the gear shift lever and PRNDL indicator may move without the transmission actually shifting out of park. Owners have filed 210 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From a stalling fuel pump to a dead tail lamp or a full engine teardown, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and correct specification for your specific 2000 Frontier.
