EXTERIOR LIGHTING Safety Recalls

Critical #19V235000 Plain English
Component

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH

Manufacturer
Nissan North America, Inc.
What Happened
Your 2019 Nissan Altima may have a brake light switch bracket that's in the wrong spot, which could keep the brake switch on even when you're not pressing the brake pedal.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, your brake lights might stay on when you're not using the brakes, which could confuse other drivers. Also, you could accidentally move your transmission shift lever out of park without pressing the brake pedal, which could make your vehicle roll away and increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Nissan will contact you and fix this for free by installing a new brake pedal if needed. You don't have to pay a thing!
Show original NHTSA language
Original — What Happened
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2019 Nissan Altima vehicles. The brake switch bracket may be in the incorrect location, which may cause the brake switch to remain on.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
If the brake switch remains in the ON position, the brake lights will remain illuminated when the brakes are not being pressed, which may confuse other drivers. Additionally, the transmission shift lever may be moved out of the Park position without the brake pedal being pressed, allowing the vehicle to roll unexpectedly. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
Original — Remedy
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and install a new brake pedal as needed, free of charge. The recall began May 15, 2019. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669.
