What it saysWINDSHIELD CRACKING This bulletin has been amended. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
Nissan filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Apr 30, 2024, received Jun 7, 2024, about the visibility/wiper. It names 154 model years (2016–2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 145 model years this bulletin names have filed 12,205 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 194 of them name Visibility/Wiper — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On the 2016 Nissan Rogue, the 21 owners who gave an odometer reading for Visibility/Wiper reported it at a median of 50,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.
The Problem: The backup camera on my 2020 Nissan 370z (purchased in 2022) has been malfunctioning, intermittently, since I got the car but has gotten worse over time and rarely works now. When I put the car in Reverse the camera shows a blue screen and/or a black screen and then nothing. My car model doesn’t have an Infotainment screen.
2020 Nissan 370Z · Visibility/Wiper · filed with NHTSA Oct 14, 2026 · ODI 11771152
I would like to submit a safety concern for a new vehicle that I purchased in April. The Nissan Pathfinder Platinum edition is indeed a very nice vehicle, but there are two issues that need to be addressed immediately. The first is that the windshield washer probe is located one- and one-half inches inside the hood near the windshield.
2023 Nissan Pathfinder · Visibility/Wiper · filed with NHTSA Dec 27, 2023 · ODI 11562100
I was riding down the highway when all of a sudden I hear loud bang, the rear windshield, completely shutters, spontaneously out of nowhere. This is a huge safety concern as I could have easily caused or been involved in an accident due to what occurred I have looked up on other forms where this has happened to other Nissan owners.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Nissan NTB09-081K a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the NTB09-081K repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.
Which vehicles does NTB09-081K cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 154 model years: 2020 Nissan 370Z, 2019 Nissan 370Z, 2018 Nissan 370Z, 2017 Nissan 370Z, 2016 Nissan 370Z, 2024 Nissan Altima and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
