Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the ABS Actuator, replacing it as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 12, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

If this occurs, owners are advised to park the vehicle outdoors away from other vehicles or structures and to not drive the vehicle.
