2021 NISSAN KICKS Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2021 Nissan Kicks has 4 recalls, all centered on the same issue: a faulty torque sensor in the electric power steering system that can cut power steering assist, making the wheel significantly harder to turn, particularly at low speeds. Prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the problem, which is why multiple inspection campaigns exist for the same underlying defect. When the assist drops out, steering effort increases suddenly, raising the risk of losing control, especially during parking maneuvers or slow-speed turns where drivers rely most on that assist.
