What happened

Nissan is recalling certain 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima vehicles, 2015-2017 Murano vehicles, and 2015-2016 Murano Hybrid vehicles equipped with Intelligent Cruise Control. These vehicles may have an Anti-Lock Brake actuator pump that can leak brake fluid onto an internal electrical circuit board, which could cause an electrical short and increase the risk of fire.

Nissan will notify owners and dealers will inspect and replace the ABS Actuator as necessary at no charge. Owners can contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261. If the ABS warning lamp remains illuminated for more than 10 seconds after starting the engine, owners should park the vehicle outdoors away from other vehicles or structures and not drive it.
