What this recall means for you
Some hybrid SUVs have a hydraulic brake booster that can overheat internally. When this happens, the power assist that helps the brakes work can be lost, so the vehicle may take longer to stop. A longer stopping distance raises the risk of a crash.
The vehicles fail to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 135 for light vehicle brake systems. Owners should not wait to have this addressed, since reduced braking ability can occur without warning.
Authorized Nissan dealers will replace the hydraulic brake booster supply unit at no cost to the owner. Owners who have questions can call Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669, referencing recall R22A6. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
