Recall campaigns
NHTSA lists these campaigns as covering certain 2017 Nissan Altima vehicles. One campaign can list several components, so adding these counts is not a way to total the campaigns — 3 vehicle campaigns are on record for this model-year.
- Structure1 campaign18 distinct complaints
- Latches/Locks/Linkages2 campaigns14 distinct complaints
Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety recall at no cost to the owner — by repair, replacement or refund — for vehicles not more than 15 years old on the date the defect was determined.
Parts are sometimes on back-order and some remedies are interim, so a dealer may not be able to complete the work immediately. A specific vehicle’s current recall status is available through NHTSA’s VIN recall lookup.

These federal records are not an input to OAV’s price verdict.
These records describe the 2017 model-year, not any individual vehicle, and are not an inspection. One complaint can be recorded against more than one component, so counts do not sum to the model-year total. Service records for any component listed here are worth requesting from the seller.
Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA. Mileage is self-reported and frequently rounded. Complaint records as of 2026-09-28. Recall records as of 2026-09-28. Manufacturer communications as of 2026-09-28.
