Known issues on the 2014 Frontier. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers vehicles built from November 2012 through December 2013, where a misinstalled circuit breaker can leave the main wire harness facing a metal bolt on the A-pillar, wearing through the harness covering and creating a risk of electrical short and fire. The second covers certain Crew Cab trucks built in June 2014, where an out-of-spec anchor nut can leave the rear seat belt anchor bolt improperly attached, raising the risk of injury in a crash. Owners have filed 42 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 wiring short at the A-pillar to checking a rear seat belt anchor or servicing either engine, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2014 Frontier.
