Nissan Recalls 173,301 Vehicles for Fuel Pump Issues

Washington, D.C. — Nissan is recalling 173,301 vehicles in the United States due to a potential issue with blown fuel pump fuses that can cause engine stalling, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced on Wednesday.

The recall affects three models: the 2013-2021 Nissan NV200 Van, the 2014-2017 and 2019 Nissan NV200 Taxi, along with the 2015-2018 Chevrolet City Express vehicles, which Nissan produced for General Motors.

The NHTSA reported that the fuel tank temperature sensor harness may have been incorrectly routed. This misrouting can damage wires and lead to a short circuit in the fuel pump fuse, potentially resulting in an engine stall.

Nissan will begin contacting owners by mail starting in late fall 2025 to arrange for repairs, which will be provided free of charge. The company is still determining if any vehicles in Canada are impacted.

This recall follows a previous one this year when Nissan recalled nearly 444,000 vehicles due to an engine failure risk, raising concerns about the company’s quality control in the North American market.

“We take safety seriously and are committed to addressing any potential issues with our vehicles,” said a Nissan spokesperson.
