6 Things I HATE! 2022 Nissan Frontier

[@4rr44E]

😂 “Who the f locks their tailgate!?” Uhm… those with taneau covers to secure items in our beds! 😂

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I get that for sure. But I am not one of those people that have a cover.

[@TechJedi29]

No it would not be cool to add turbos.... Simple is better.

[@AP-st1li]

Why don't people understand that? Lol

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I like racing and going fast, twin turbo would be cool. A lowered sport version would be super cool.

[@Tragick_Sin]

​@jolede029 a lowered "sports" truck?? Man what crack are yiu smoking you are become delusional and crazy bro

[@jolede029]

Hahahaha well at least you’re honest. :)

[@obsoletevalues6209]

My wife owns a 22 Bronco Sport (Badlands, 4 cyl). It has considerably better acceleration than my 21 Frontier Pro 4X. I, for one, would not mind a turbo for my Frontier. When going over 60 mph the Frontier's acceleration performance is pitiful. One review I read said the 310 HP engine was designed to increase performance, and they used the gas direct injection to increase fuel efficiency, but ultimately failed to do either. That conclusion has certainly been true for my 21 Frontier.

[@Blue-moon12]

I have a 2023 Pro X. I've had no issues with fit and finish. I don't like that is doesn't have a telescopic steering wheel. With regards to your screen, it must be as you said first new updates on models have their issues.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@dontderockmerizz3211]

Living here in Chicago that tailgate would be stolen in the first month. I’d imagine NY, Miami, LA, Atlanta etc has the same problem. Price a tailgate & you will see why they do it.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I get that.

[@dragonfoxsolid1308]

Buddy, we know. Where grape soda enthusiasts live tailgate issues.

[@davefigore7843]

Try the old fashioned way of finding your gas mileage. Divide the number of miles traveled by the number of gallons of gas your vehicle took to refill. In sum, that's miles driven divided by gallons of gas used. The truck readings probably are not accurate.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I know all that. I should do a mpg video.

[@1374670x]

I have a 2019 frontier and one of my pet peeves is the tailgate locks separately. I have to use a key to lock and unlock. I wish the remote would unlock it….

[@jolede029]

Hello, I understand. Thank you for watching.

[@spyder000069]

Great video! Are they still forcing the garbage offroad recovery backpack on all Pro4x models? Its like $70 worth of amazon crap they charge $500 for and when I was looking at frontiers it appeared to be a mandatory item.

[@Blue-moon12]

I'm in Canada and that stuff wasn't forced upon me. Bought a Pro 4x new in November 2023.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@ThePuppyisLost]

This was an awesome review. Secret Lumbar support -- I'm also 6'4 and no ever mentions tall guy problems. I went to sit in one today and getting in was not comfortable. (sitting is fine -- I enjoy the head room, but the getting in is still a pain. Maybe if I add a 2'' inch lift it will feel better.

[@jolede029]

Thank very much for watching.

[@justincase9638]

Hi Pancakes, I have a '23 P4X and it's perfect. No issues or niggles at all. Parking Paul was not an issue, no buzzing, no issue with the rear door. It's night and day. ( although the seat button has not changed)... I'm stepping out with the P4X steps so I don't hit that button. I can see that being an issue for some. The tailgate lock is still doing that! I may remove the lock... good Idea. The radio screen is not giving me any issues... working perfectly. First year issues suck.... maybe you should trade for a '24?

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I really love the feed back. New video coming in days.

[@Chris-tk5cd]

Maybe the radio malfunction has something to do with all the chalk dust that's covering the interior.

[@jolede029]

Ha ha ha ha ha, I get it. I like to drive with the window down and even in town my dash gets a little dusty. It’s not dirt just dust if you know what I mean. Trust me that wasn’t the reason why the radio didn’t work. Sides I don’t have that truck anymore. I really appreciate the comment and thank you very much for watching.

[@yardboy3955]

Does your Frontier have a power driver seat? I read on internet that the seat reclines/moves a little after engine is off.

[@jolede029]

Thank you very much for watching. Yes the driver seat is a power seat. I don’t think it’s a matter of when it powers up or powers down. I believe it to be when the switch is activated. That’s the only way the power goes to the motor is the connection in the switch.

[@falconice1266]

JATCO (Japanese Automatic Transmission Company) is majority owned by Nissan, fyi.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@AriePharmD]

Locking tailgate is great if you have a bedcover.

[@Blue-moon12]

I didn't want it on my Pro4x so didn't select it as on option. You can lock it with the key anyway..

[@sharkskin3448]

If I'm not mistaken, the electronic tail gate lock is a +/- $345. option. Most inventory doesn't have that.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@ronaldkrause891]

If u have all these issues take it back to the dealer. I had nissan pickups since 1981 and I never had any issues at all. Just bought a 2024 just like yours except diff color and I love it.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching. I traded it for a 2024. Easy peasy.

[@WB-iz6ot]

I bought a 2023 Pro 4X back in Jan and everything you mentioned and have not one issue with except one....THAT F**KIN SEAT ADJUSTMENT BUTTONS ARE THE WORST!!! I thought I was going crazy the first month driving this truck. Every time I start driving I'm like how did my seat get moved?...lol Finally figured out that it was me just me doing this by getting in and out. It is a terrible design and very frustrating everyday that I have to readjust my seat. I'm glad knowing this now and that it ain't just me...haha

[@jolede029]

Hello, glad if I helped. If you put a small switch inline with the power to the seat. You could put the seat where you want it and just flip the switch and kill the power to the seat motor. Thank you for watching.

[@garytheguru]

This is why I bought a 2022 tacoma after 2 years absolutely no problems and better yet it doesn't have any BMW or Mercedes incorporated into it!

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I understand that. The 24 taco…….hummmm no thank you.

[@dragonfoxsolid1308]

Is there a good place for a gun in a frontier?

[@bradleypollack5658]

You probably wanna have a lock on that tailgate specially if it’s power so someone doesn’t steal it. It has been happening a lot of different areas.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@midlifecrisis7888]

The mileage calculator is not accurate. For me it always overestimates the real mileage. I just fill up then drive and when I fill up again I divide the driven miles on the odometer by the amount of gallons it took to fill it back up. Getting 18-19 tops

[@Commentleaver-c6x]

True, I have a 2023 SV 4wd crew cab and it’s consistently 3 mpg worse when I calculate it than what the computer says. My wife just got a new Honda CRV and every time I’ve checked it it’s 2-3 mpg worse than the computer says too, so I’m guessing that’s pretty common across all manufacturers.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I’ll do a mpg video.

[@GNandGS]

There were statistically 0 parking pawl runaways.

[@kc-6837]

Thank you. That is why I never let them take my Titan apart. They called me all of the time to schedule that. I since traded it in on a 24 Frontier Pro4X.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I will say it is a low number but not zero. If it was zero there would be no recalls.

[@carltaylor5604]

Getting worse gas mileage from all the excessive dust

[@JohnnyRebLa]

Two of the biggest effects on gas mileage that a lot of people don't really look at or think when getting bad mileage is tire weight more than size and air pressure.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching!

[@jefferylorance7988]

A locking tailgate is more beneficial then he realize…

[@jolede029]

I respect your opinion, but I don’t have a topper and probably never will. Also, it is only on the trucks with the convenience package I believe. With out the convenience package you have to lock it with the key, like a normal truck. If you can lock it with a key then why make it more complicated. Just my thoughts. Thank you very much for watching and sharing.

[@rayray_x2]

In Canada they sell the king cab with a six foot bed in pro 4x

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I just looked at Nissan Canada and they did not have that. I wish I could.

[@turkey576]

I have a ‘24 Pro4x. Great truck. This one has No tech nothing but what ever is stock on a pro4x. I’m sure some of it is cool and all, but never have I used it so I don’t miss it. Good luck on your adventures

[@jolede029]

Thank you very much for watching. I agree you don’t miss it if you don’t have it. I don’t need any of that tack I just like the remote start is basically it. I suppose I could buy that from A third-party.

[@gatorgaming8312]

Got a 2024 pro-4x, waiting to bring it in for warranty work. Truck vibrates on the highway 70-80 mph. Other than that and the stupid engine auto shutoff switch that has to be turned off everytime I start the truck is great. The rear auto braking when going in reverse is a pain in the ass too lol

[@Blue-moon12]

Haha turning off the auto start is not a big deal. Mine doesn't seem to engage that much even when I don't turn it off.

[@gatorgaming8312]

@Blue-moon12 it's not, but they could've made it were once you push it, it stays off even if you turn the truck off

[@jolede029]

A friend had his toyota tailgate stolen while eating at a restaurant

[@jolede029]

@@marvinjacobs2955 o man that sucks. I’m really sorry to hear about that.

[@Frontier2022]

Sounds like you should have gotten a S trim. I have king cab S 4x4 no power seats no auto lock tailgate. Quickly there is a tech bulletin out to reprogram the cruise control also holding the power button on the radio while it’s on for 15 seconds will reboot your radio and probably solve the radio issue.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I tried that but did not solve the problem. Got the new 24

[@tg8150]

The ‘22 can be just as good as the ‘24 with simple software updates. Plus, the ‘22 doesn’t have start/stop bullshit. There really hasn’t been any changes at all between ‘22 to ‘24. If anything, they take stuff away as the years go by; for example, the ‘24 no longer has a 12-volt plug in the center console like the ‘22’s.

[@mafosa8519]

On the 23s the seat still does that. Countless times in the morning I got into my truck and the seat was all the way! “Freaky as hell!” Good money in tailgates! No problems with the entertainment center.

[@jolede029]

Hello, thank you very much for watching.

[@andrewspringfield7558]

I felt that pain about the tail gate. That was real.

[@jolede029]

I agree 10000% with you. Thank you for watching.

[@jh9992]

You clearly have a defective radio. That's not a Nissan design thing (and of course a Nissan QC issue). You should have had it replaced under warranty.

[@jolede029]

Thank you for watching! I agree. But it is hard to show the dealer, even with video. You know, it all way seems to be working just fine when it goes in the shop.

[@Truth2240]

Auto stop start is a deal killer for me. Wont have it even if you can disable it everytime.

[@grizzly311tr]

I noticed sometimes when driving around corners the transmission hunts for gears doesn't know what gear it wants to go into some times it might shift hard weird for something with 16k miles otherwise they ain't bad
