Over 800,000 Nissan SUVs Recalled Worldwide Due to Brake Switch Defect

Nissan has recalled more than 800,000 of its SUVs globally owing to a serious flaw that has been connected to an engine problem. The Nissan Pathfinder, Armada, and Infiniti QX56 are just a few of the 2012–2014 models that are included in the recall. 

The National Highway Traffic Safety Agency (NHTSA) has said that a brake switch flaw might result in the brake lights being on even after the brake pedal has been lifted. Overheating and possibly a fire might occur from this.

There have been more than 800,000 automobiles affected by the recall, which has been issued internationally. Around 225,000 of these are found alone in the United States. 

According to Nissan, it will provide free brake switch replacements and will contact impacted owners and dealerships. In case of fire, the carmaker has also encouraged owners of concerned vehicles to park their cars outdoors and away from buildings.

Safety Risks Highlighted by Nissan Recall

Nissan has had to recall vehicles before due to a similar issue. Due to a flaw that made the brake light switch fail, the business had to recall more than 120,000 of their vehicles in 2016. 

The significance of automakers taking safety concerns seriously and following protocol to solve them is proved as again by this most recent recall.

In conclusion, the recall of more than 800,000 Nissan Vehicles globally is a serious safety concern that shouldn't be ignored. Fires and other major safety issues might result from the brake switch fault.

 It's a step in the right direction to rectify the problem and guarantee the safety of its consumers that the carmaker decided to recall the vehicles and repair the faulty brake switches. 

Nissan's quality control and safety standards, however, are called into doubt by the fact that this is not the first time the business has had to issue a recall due to a similar problem.
