2000 Nissan Frontier recall: lights
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: minivans and light duty trucks. The tail light socket may have been improperly molded, resulting in the locking tab having insufficient force to retain the bulb.
💥 The risk
If the bulb falls out of the socket, the brake or tail lamp function cannot occur.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the tail lamp sockets.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
