2024 Nissan Z

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 Z.

Transmission Automatic (S9)

The 2024 Nissan Z is configured with a nine-speed automatic transmission and returns EPA fuel economy estimates of 19 mpg in the city, 28 mpg on the highway, and 22 mpg combined. Owner-reported reliability data for this model year shows a notably quiet ledger, with just a single complaint filed to date — logged in the "Structure, Unknown Or Other" category — alongside a count of two recalls. For researchers tracking the Z's long-term dependability record, that low complaint volume places the 2024 model year among the quieter stretches of the nameplate's history, offering a relatively clean baseline against which earlier or later iterations can be measured.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the spark plugs at 105,000 mi; coolant at 105,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 105,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

In the 2024 model year, the Nissan Z recorded only one consumer complaint—focused on “Structure, Unknown Or Other”—and maintained two recalls, matching the prior year’s recall count but with half the complaint volume (2023 saw two complaints). Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) dropped sharply from 49 in 2023 to 15 in 2024, indicating a notable reduction in reported service issues. No investigations, crash‑related complaints, or fire complaints were logged for 2024, mirroring the clean record of the surrounding years. This downward trend in complaints and TSBs suggests that the 2024 Z benefits from incremental improvements without new systemic problems. Consequently, the 2024 Nissan Z appears to be a solid year to purchase from a reliability standpoint.
