Nissan recalls Sentras over reduced visibility 

Franklin, TN – December 11, 2025 – Nissan (OTCMKTS:NSANY) is recalling 41,797 2025 Nissan Sentra sedans with defective windshields that may reduce drivers’ visibility. This defect ups the chances of a crash and injury. 

Recall summary

An automotive windshield has two layers of glass with a plastic sheet between them to prevent it from shattering under impact. In the affected vehicles, the windshield’s layers were not properly glued together during the manufacturing process, which can allow air bubbles to form between them. 

Recall risks

Air bubbles within the windshield may obstruct the driver’s field of view, increasing the risk of a crash and injury. 

Other Nissan recalls

In October 2025, Nissan recalled more than 19,000 Leaf EVs whose batteries could burst into flames while charging

In August 2025, nearly 450,000 Nissan and Infiniti vehicles were recalled over an engine defect that could cause them to stall or even catch fire.  

The repair

The dealers will replace the windshield free of charge. 

Notifications to the owners will be mailed by January 15, 2026.

Ford recalls 79,017 vehicles due to faulty windshields

Dearborn, MI – March 1, 2021 – Ford (NYSE:F) has announced a recall of 79,017 Ford F-series trucks with faulty windshields, which may fail to adequately protect the car occupants or injure them during a crash.

The recall includes:

  • 2021 Ford F 150 vehicles 
  • 2020-2021 Ford super-duty vehicles 

Recall summary

The front windshields of the affected vehicles are not glued well to the vehicle body structure.  This violates the federal safety standards, which state that a windshield should be strongly bonded to the body of the car.

The bonding defect is caused by a supplier using a “non-conforming” batch of paint.

Warning signs

The driver may be alerted to a loose windshield if he or she hears “wind noise” or notices a water leak.

Safety risks

A loose windshield is more likely to crack or even separate from the car, especially in the case of an accident. This may result in the car occupants getting injured by broken glass or being exposed to road debris and other objects hitting their face and body at a high speed.

To learn more about the dangers of road debris, please see our recent article about a Land Rover recall for fly-away spoilers.

Other Ford recalls

2020 F 150 trucks were among Ford vehicles recalled last fall for faulty rearview cameras that distorted the image for the driver, resulting in a higher risk of a crash. Over 400 F150 2020 were also recalled in April for a risk of fire.

Repair

To fix the issue, dealers will detach the windshield and reinstall it. The repair is free of charge.  Repair notifications will be sent out to the owners starting on April 6.
