SERVICE BRAKES

Manufacturer

What Happened
The electronic brake booster in your LEAF is a system that helps you slow down. In very cold temperatures, the relay inside this system can freeze and make it harder to brake.
Risk if Unfixed
If the relay fails, you'll need to push the brake pedal a lot harder to stop your vehicle, especially on long distances. This could make it more likely to crash.
Free Fix
Your Nissan dealer will update the Intelligent Brake Control Unit software to prevent this issue, at no cost to you. You should contact your dealer to confirm repair availability and schedule the update, as the recall began on March 28, 2016.
