What's wrong?
The tires on the 2023 Nissan Titan and Frontier use an inner bead, the reinforced edge of the tire that seals against the wheel rim. That seal holds air pressure inside the tire while the tread carries the truck's weight and keeps contact with the road. For the tire to work correctly, the bead has to stay intact during mounting and normal driving.
On affected trucks, the problem started during tire-to-wheel mounting on one Nissan production line. A tire mounter boot, the tool surface that helps guide the tire onto the wheel, had the wrong shape after routine maintenance. Its contact with the inner bead during mounting left a tear in affected tires. A torn bead breaks the air seal, so the tire can lose pressure quickly.
There is no warning sign before failure. The owner is not given an early symptom to watch for before the tire loses air.
Who's affected?
The Titan scope names General Grabber A/T tires, while the Frontier scope names General Grabber tires.

What's the safety risk?
A rapid loss of tire pressure while driving can make the Titan or Frontier harder to control and increase the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before the pressure loss, so check your VIN and schedule the tire remedy promptly if included. Repair is free at any franchised Nissan dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023 Nissan Titan or Frontier is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Nissan dealer to schedule the free tire replacement or spare-tire inspection that addresses bead tears and rapid pressure loss.
- Bring the recall notice if Nissan mailed one. If not, reference recall number 23V273 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete. Pull over safely if the vehicle loses tire pressure or becomes hard to control.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician replaces all four road tires, or inspects the spare tire assembly and replaces it if needed. The recall covers parts and labor at no charge. Nissan's owner notice includes reimbursement instructions for qualifying tire replacement costs paid before the recall notice when warranty did not cover the work. If you already paid for this tire issue, bring repair invoices or payment documentation and ask the service desk how to submit the claim.
