Nissan is recalling 13,535 Frontier pickups in the U.S. to fix electrical wiring that could short-circuit and potentially cause a fire, according to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Some 2012-2014 Frontier pickups may have circuit breakers that were installed in the opposite direction, which could allow the main wiring harness to contact a bolt in the truck's A-pillar. If that happens and the wire becomes exposed, "thermal damage" could occur and disable the power seat and sunroof. Or, the battery could go dead when the truck is turned off.
