Nissan Micra Recalls In The UK: Every Safety Recall By Year And Build Date, And What To Do

The Nissan Micra has 20 UK safety recalls in DVSA records, 1 of them since 2020. The most common faults involve loss of power and airbags. Enter your registration to see which apply to your car; you won't usually pay for a recall repair.¹

Most Nissan Micra recalls involve older generations, and the current Micra has had only one since 2020. That recall, R/2023/095, covers 41,191 fifth-generation Micras because, with the driver's seat in a certain position, the seat could interfere with a part in a crash; book it promptly. Older Micras account for the largest recalls. R/2013/063 fixed a steering wheel bolt that might not have been tightened correctly, covering 133,869 vehicle-records, and R/2010/185 dealt with an engine that could stall and fail to restart. A passenger airbag that could tear during deployment led to R/2019/312. Many Micras are now with second or third owners, often as first cars, so a registration check is worthwhile before buying one or handing one down. Micra recalls are listed alongside the Note and Juke in some campaigns. Any Nissan dealer can confirm by VIN which apply.
