Known issues on the 2022 Frontier. Six recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the left-rear seat belt bracket: mounting bolts that were incorrectly tightened can allow the bracket to break in a crash, causing loss of seat belt restraint. The second covers Crew Cab Long Bed trucks built without a tow hitch installed, which compromises the fuel tank's structural integrity and can let the leaf spring contact the tank in a rear crash, risking a fuel leak and fire. Two separate recalls cover the automatic transmission parking pawl, which may fail to engage in Park and allow the vehicle to roll away. Two more cover the infotainment head unit rebooting, one tied to Sirius XM subscription status, that can leave the rearview camera display inoperative and reduce rear visibility. Owners have filed 110 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 a parking pawl inspection to a seat belt bracket check or diagnosing a rebooting infotainment unit, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2022 Frontier.
