19 recalls across 20 model years
The Nissan Armada has 19 recalls spanning 2004 through 2026, with the most serious recent issue affecting 2025-2026 models where a software error can prevent the rearview camera from displaying when shifted into reverse, reducing the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle.
The 2025-2026 camera software issue joins a similar backup camera recall from 2018-2019 models, where the camera image could fail to appear while reversing. On the fuel system side, 2020-2021 Armadas with V8 engines have a fuel pump impeller that can swell, bind, and fail, stalling the engine while driving. The 2013 model year has a brake master cylinder that can intermittently reduce pressure to the front brakes, extending stopping distances.
Going back to the 2013-2015 model years, a driver's airbag inflator can rupture during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin. The 2015 model year has two additional issues: a parking pawl that may not fully engage in Park, allowing the vehicle to roll, and front seat belt buckles that can fail to latch or refuse to release when the button is pressed.
The 2008-2011 model years have a resin emblem on the driver's airbag cover that can crack and detach during deployment, turning it into a projectile inside the cabin. The 2010 model year has a front lower control arm weld that can fail and cause a sudden loss of steering control, and a second-row center seat hinge that can give way in a crash. The 2008 model year has a third-row left outboard seat belt anchor that may not hold under crash loads. The 2007 model year has a third-row seat belt upper anchor bracket that can be cracked and fail to restrain an occupant in a crash.
Earlier production from 2005-2006 has an air conditioning condenser fan motor that can corrode internally, overheat, and catch fire. The 2004-2006 model years have a relay in the power distribution module that can fail and stall the engine. The 2004 model year has a compliance label with undersized child seat tether anchor pictograms, and the 2012 model year has a tire placard missing the required wheel rim size.
