Nissan Recalls 13K Frontiers

It's not just Ford that has a recall involving pickup trucks today. Nissan is recalling more than 13,000 Frontiers.

Nissan is recalling 13,719 model year 2025 Frontier vehicles because a software logic error may cause the daytime running lights to dim when the idle start-stop system restarts the engine. This does not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108. Dealers will update the engine control module software at no cost. Notification letters are expected to be sent September 17, 2025. Recall number R25C3.

What would we do without government telling us how bright our DRLs have to be at all times?!??! This recall ranks right up there with the one on the VW ID Buzz for the third row seat that 'could' fit 3 but is only designed for 2.

  If DRLs were as bright as searchlights - or functioned as colored strobe lights - you'd want some regulation of that. Similarly, if the mfr says they shine with so many lumens, but are actually weaker, then the mfr hasn't given you what they promised.
  That's why the government has rules for lights.

Software glitches will be the death of us all.

ToolGuy™ I have always resented how GM did not consult me on styling choices.

Orange260z In 2007 we drove from Regina SK to LA via Flagstaff, and Las Vegas, returning via Sam Francisco, Reno and Northern NV. The Montana "reasonable and prudent" had been repealed by then, and Montana actually had the slowest highway speeds of our trip.Through Utah, Arizona, and Nevada we were quite surprised to see a steady flow of traffic at speeds of approximately 100mph on I15, I40, and I80, but also Hwy89, Hwy93 and other non-interstate highways. Many of the vehicles doing these speeds were full-size SUVs and pickup trucks - having owned Suburbans and Yukons I get that they are comfortable cruisers at high speed, but good luck braking or swerving at 100mph.Also had a similar experience driving back to Ontario from Dallas TX - much of the daytime interstate traffic was moving in the 85-100mph range (speed limits were generally 70--75mph).
