What's wrong?
The right-side LED headlamp on the 2024 Nissan Frontier lights the road and includes aim markings molded into the lens. Those markings tell a technician how to set the beam height and direction when the lamp is adjusted after service or replacement. The lamp still has to meet federal marking rules for exterior lighting.
On affected Frontier trucks, the "VOR" portion of the right-hand headlamp marking was missing or too hard to read. Nissan traced the issue to a worn tool insert at the supplier, which did not transfer that part of the marking clearly onto the lens. Without a readable marking, a technician can aim the headlight incorrectly during service, even though the lamp was aimed at the factory.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to see a dashboard light or a change in headlight operation from the missing marking itself.

Not every 2024 Nissan Frontier pickup is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific pickup truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
Improperly aimed headlights can leave the road insufficiently lit, reduce the driver's visibility, and increase the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before the headlight aim affects visibility, so schedule the headlight inspection and replacement soon. Repair is free at any franchised Nissan dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024 Nissan Frontier is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Nissan dealer to schedule the free right-side headlight inspection and replacement if needed, which corrects the headlight aim marking issue.
- Bring the recall notice if Nissan mailed one. If not, reference recall number 24V582 when you call.
- Use extra caution at night until the headlight aim issue is inspected and fixed.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician inspects the right side headlight assembly and replaces the headlight if the markings are missing or illegible. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered by Nissan. Out of pocket repairs already paid are handled through the existing warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because the subject vehicles are under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
