2024 Nissan Ariya Common Problems by Component
6 owner complaints grouped by vehicle system.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2 complaintsOwners report issues with the electrical system of the 2024 Nissan Ariya, specifically involving the 12-volt battery and EV system failures. Complaints frequently mention the 12-volt battery's inability to hold a charge, which prevents the vehicle from starting or functioning, as seen in a case where the vehicle had 5,798 miles. Another owner describes an EV system failure that resulted in sluggish performance with only 120 miles on the odometer. These issues typically occur shortly after purchase, and while no direct safety incidents like crashes or fires are reported, the inability to start or properly operate the vehicle may pose a potential inconvenience.
BACK OVER PREVENTION
1 complaintCar's backup camera doesn't engage, leaving the screen black. Dealer claimed it was fixed after a four hour visit, but the camera broke again the same day.
SEAT BELTS
1 complaintMy infant daughter became stuck in the rear seat due to a seat belt malfunction in my Nissan Ariya Evolve. The seat belt buckle would not release even after repeated attempts to press the release button. We tried multiple times to unbuckle it normally, but it remained stuck and would not open. This created a serious safety situation, as my child was trapped and unable to be freed. Due to the emergency, we had no option but to cut the seat belt in order to safely remove our child. This is extremely concerning because seat belts are a critical safety feature, and failure to release can pose a serious risk, especially in emergencies where immediate evacuation is required. The vehicle has since been taken to a Nissan service center, but they are claiming this is not a defect and are charging approximately 1000 for repair. I am reporting this issue because a seat belt that fails to release is a major safety hazard, particularly involving a child occupant. This issue could potentially affect other vehicles and should be investigated.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM (1 complaints)
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
1 complaintWhile charging my vehicle, the charger failed to stop the charging session on command. I was unable to stop the charging session from the vehicle as well. I was therefore unable to move the vehicle for any reason (medical emergency or other urgent reason) until the state of charge reached 100%.
ENGINE (1 complaints)

How We Calculate Reliability Scores
Auto Reliability Index scores are calculated on a 0–100 scale using a weighted formula that combines multiple public data sources. Each factor is weighted based on its predictive value for real-world ownership experience.
Key Ranking Factors
Complaint Severity
NHTSA owner complaints weighted by component category (e.g., powertrain, safety systems, electronics, cosmetic) — safety-critical issues carry more weight than cosmetic ones. Adjusted for sales volume so high-volume models aren't unfairly penalized.
Repair Costs
Independent reliability ratings based on repair frequency, average repair costs, and severity of typical repairs for each model.
Recall Impact
Number of NHTSA recalls weighted by severity. “Stop driving” and fire-risk recalls are penalized more heavily than minor software or labeling recalls.
Issue Diversity
Measures how many major vehicle systems (engine, transmission, electrical, braking, etc.) have recorded complaints. A vehicle with issues spread across many systems may indicate systemic quality issues.
Scores are grouped into four tiers:
- 80–100: Excellent— Top-tier reliability, minimal issues
- 60–79: Good— Reliable with some minor concerns
- 40–59: Mixed— Notable issues, research before buying
- 0–39: Risky— Significant problems, proceed with caution
Data is sourced from NHTSA recall records, owner complaint filings, and independent repair databases. Scores are recalculated as new data becomes available. While the weighting model is proprietary, all underlying data sources are public and traceable.
