What Happened
The ABS system in your vehicle is like a computer that helps your brakes stop smoothly. In some 2013-2014 Nissan Pathfinders, Infiniti JX35s, and Infiniti QX60s, the ABS software can make your brakes take a bit longer to stop on rough roads.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, it could take you a bit longer to stop your vehicle, especially on bumpy roads. This might increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Nissan dealer will update the ABS software to improve stopping power, and this repair is completely free. You'll get a notification, and you should schedule the fix as soon as possible.
