Front Brake Torque Member may Fail

NHTSA #13V139000 · Service Brakes · NHTSA notice

Reported April 12, 2013 · Nissan North America, Inc.

Potentially affected: 19,258 vehicles

Owners notified May 20, 2013 · Vehicles built December 3, 2012 – January 29, 2013 (per NHTSA)

Defect description

Nissan is recalling certain model year 2013 Pathfinder and Infiniti JX vehicles manufactured December 3, 2012, through January 29, 2013. The front brake torque member was improperly cast resulting in structural weakness. This can lead to premature failure and cracking.

Safety consequence

If the brake torque member fails, the brake caliper may move and contact the inside of the road wheel, resulting in reduced braking, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the manufacturing date of the torque members and replace them, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 20, 2013. Owners may contact Nissan Customer Service at 1-800-647-7261.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
