2015 NISSAN ARMADA

  • Brand NISSAN

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Nissan North America is recalling certain 2015 Nissan Armada vehicles manufactured between April 30, 2015, and June 5, 2015, due to defective front seat belt buckle assemblies. The affected vehicles may have driver or front passenger seat belts that do not properly latch or may not unlatch when the release button is pressed. A seat belt that fails to latch properly would not restrain an occupant in a crash, increasing injury risk. A seat belt that does not properly unlatch when activated could trap an occupant and prevent quick exit from the vehicle in an emergency, also increasing injury risk.

To remedy this issue, Nissan will notify owners, and authorized dealers will inspect both front seat belt buckle assemblies and replace them as necessary at no cost. The recall began on September 14, 2015. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
