Known issues on the 2007 Frontier. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the front and rear lower suspension control links: an improper welding process on the cylindrical collars at the chassis attachment points can produce welds that don't meet strength requirements, and if a collar weld separates, vehicle handling deteriorates, possibly resulting in a crash. The second covers the front airbag crash zone sensors: in regions with heavy winter road-salt use, a mixture of snow, water and salt can work into the sensor housing, which can lead to non-deployment of the driver and passenger front airbags in a crash and increase the risk of injury. No complaints or technical service bulletins are logged for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From inspecting the lower control link welds to servicing the airbag crash zone sensors or a routine maintenance interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2007 Frontier.
