Known issues on the 2001 Frontier. Seven recalls are on federal record for this model year. Four cover aftermarket combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies (from SaberSport, Anzo, Tradesonic, and Dope, Inc.) that were sold without the required amber side reflectors, reducing lighting visibility and raising crash risk. One covers the fuel pump terminal on the fuel-sending unit, where a cracked plastic molding can let the terminal strip corrode and eventually break, stalling the engine or preventing a restart. One covers the fuel tank filler inlet shutter valve, which can fail to seal properly and let fuel spill during fueling in warm conditions, creating a fire risk near an ignition source. One covers the rear axle housing, where water intrusion past the ABS sensor seal can corrode and eventually fail the wheel bearing, risking wheel separation. Owners have filed 145 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing a no-start fuel pump fault to inspecting the rear axle seals or a filler valve, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2001 Frontier.
