Nissan Maxima recalls by country

How to check if your Nissan Maxima has a recall

A recall covers specific build dates and vehicle identification numbers (VINs), not every Nissan Maxima on the road. To see whether yours is affected:

1. Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: NHTSA (United States), NZTA (New Zealand), EU Safety Gate (Netherlands), PROFECO (Mexico), KBA (Germany), DVSA (UK).
2. Ask an authorised Nissan dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
3. Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.
