The 2024 Nissan Z has 2 recalls, both involving the front bumper's pedestrian protection system, where the pop-up engine hood may fail to lift during a pedestrian impact and increase the risk of injury. In one case, sensor connectors on the right side of the front bumper harness may be reversed, preventing the hood from receiving the signal to activate. In the other, fasteners on the left side of the front bumper reinforcement clip can loosen and leave the pop-up mechanism unable to respond. Both issues affect the same safety outcome: a hood that stays flat rather than rising to create a buffer zone between the hood's surface and the engine components beneath it.
