Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier reliable?

Owners rate it 4.66/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback also points to a truck that feels solid, dependable, and worth counting on, with many owners describing it as a meaningful upgrade. The expert drive notes reinforce that impression by highlighting the Frontier’s strong power delivery and its ability to handle highway passing and towing duties with confidence. Nissan also includes a first scheduled maintenance visit at no charge.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that reliability opinions are mixed compared with competitors, so a careful service-history check matters.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Frontier?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base S trim gets the standard 8-inch touchscreen, while the PRO-4X adds a 9-inch screen, off-road-focused equipment, and the charcoal-with-red interior treatment. The lower trims are more basic, so you should check whether the features you want are standard or reserved for the higher grades.
• Powertrain: You get a 3.8-litre V6 with 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic and standard 4WD in Canada. It also includes tow mode, hill start assist, hill descent control, and a 4-wheel limited-slip system.
• Safety package: Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard and includes blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, intelligent forward collision warning, lane departure warning, trailer sway control, rear-door alert, adaptive cruise control, and an easy-fill tire alert. Traffic sign recognition is offered on the PRO-4X grade.
• Infotainment: The lowest-level S and one-step-up SV trims get an 8-inch touchscreen, while the PRO-4X gets a 9-inch screen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard but wired only, and wireless projection is not supported. Wireless charging and Wi-Fi hotspot capability are included on the PRO-4X.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada estimates fuel consumption at 13.7 L/100 km in the city, 10.6 L/100 km on the highway, and 12.3 L/100 km combined.

Which 2022 Nissan Frontier trim should I buy?

The 2022 Nissan Frontier is offered in 3 trim levels: S, SV, PRO-4X.

Here's the short version:

• S: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core Frontier experience with the standard 8-inch touchscreen and the full Safety Shield 360 suite. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the redesigned truck.
• SV: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it keeps the Frontier’s modern cabin and tech while moving you up from the base model without jumping all the way to the off-road-focused version.
• PRO-4X: Choose this if you want the most capability and the most equipment, including the 9-inch screen, wireless charging, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, traffic sign recognition, and the off-road hardware.

Safety Shield 360 is standard, but traffic sign recognition is limited to the PRO-4X grade.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Frontier?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you should shop carefully and compare listings.

• Deal availability: 26.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 92 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.04% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $38,804 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Nissan Frontier's resale value?

The current average of $38,804 CAD sits slightly below last year's $41,743 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the Frontier has become more accessible for used buyers, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive market. If prices stay near the current range, resale values should remain stable rather than strong. The truck’s redesigned cabin, strong equipment list, and broad appeal should help support demand, especially for well-kept examples.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.66/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Nissan Frontier safe?

The 2022 Nissan Frontier has not been crash-tested by either NHTSA or IIHS yet.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Nissan Safety Shield 360 is standard, and it includes blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, intelligent forward collision warning, lane departure warning, trailer sway control, rear-door alert, adaptive cruise control, and an easy-fill tire alert. Eight airbags also come standard, and traffic sign recognition is available on the PRO-4X grade.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Frontier or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 26.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 7.04% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.66/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It brings a redesigned cabin, stronger tech, and real off-road capability.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $43,378 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $38,804 CAD average.
• It adds only minor tweaks and a few extra standard features.

The bottom line: You should lean toward the 2022 if you want the better value and the biggest step forward in design and equipment. If you’re willing to pay more for a newer model year with only modest changes, the 2023 is the secondary path for buyers who prefer the latest version.
