Nissan Rogue Recall 15V012: Loose Front Brake Bolts Could Cause Braking Loss

NHTSA campaign 15V012, reported January 14, 2015, 893 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

Some 2014-2015 Nissan Rogue, Pathfinder and Infiniti QX60 vehicles built in a specific production window may have front wheel hub assembly fasteners that were not tightened to the proper torque during assembly. If these fasteners are loose, a brake caliper could separate from the wheel assembly, reducing braking performance or steering control and increasing the risk of a crash.

The repair is free. Nissan will notify affected owners, and an authorized dealer will inspect the vehicle and tighten any loose bolts to the correct specification. To find out whether your vehicle is included, check your VIN for open recalls on NHTSA's website, or contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

If you own one of these vehicles, schedule the inspection with an authorized dealer as soon as possible rather than waiting for a notice to arrive.
