Nissan 370z Roadster Safety
NHTSA safety across every Nissan 370z Roadster model year we cover.
Across the 1 model year of the Nissan 370z Roadster we cover (2019 to 2019), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. No recalls are on record across those years.
The Nissan 370Z Roadster is a two-seat, rear-wheel-drive convertible sports car aimed squarely at driving enthusiasts who want an open-air, naturally aspirated experience without supercar pricing. For the 2019 model year, it sits at the sportier, more focused end of the affordable roadster segment, carrying a legacy that stretches back to Nissan's long lineage of Z-car heritage.
The 2019 Nissan 370Z Roadster comes to market without federal crash-test ratings. NHTSA did not test this model year, leaving no star ratings or Safety Index score to assess. This absence of data means consumers lack a federal safety benchmark for impact protection. The vehicle's recall record is clear, with zero recalls recorded for the 2019 model year. Owner complaints are also minimal; only one complaint is on file, with zero reported crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths. While these complaints remain unverified allegations, their scarcity is notable. What the data cannot quantify is how the Roadster's open body structure, compact footprint, and performance attributes might influence crash outcomes. Convertibles inherently lack a fixed roof, impacting occupant protection in rollover incidents. While its recall and complaint record is clean, the 2019 370Z Roadster offers no federal crash-test data for safety assessment.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally celebrate the 370Z Roadster for its engaging, rear-wheel-drive driving dynamics and the satisfying character of its naturally aspirated engine. Most acknowledge that the interior materials and overall cabin refinement feel dated relative to newer competitors, and that the two-seat layout limits practicality. Value perceptions are mixed, with some finding the driving experience rewarding enough to justify the trade-offs.
- NHTSA did not crash-test the 2019 370Z Roadster, meaning there are no federal star ratings available for this model year. Shoppers cannot rely on government crash-test data when evaluating this vehicle's occupant protection.
- The 2019 370Z Roadster carries zero NHTSA recalls, which is a positive safety signal and suggests no widespread safety-critical defects were identified by the manufacturer or federal regulators for this model year.
- Only one owner complaint was filed with NHTSA for the 2019 model year, with zero reported crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths attached to it. While complaints are unverified, the extremely low volume indicates no pattern of safety-related owner concerns.
- As a convertible, the 370Z Roadster lacks a fixed roof structure. In rollover scenarios, open-top vehicles face inherently different occupant-protection dynamics than hardtop counterparts, a factor that is especially relevant given the absence of crash-test data for this model.
