What’s wrong with it?
If the valves do not properly close, additional brake pedal travel may be required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Nissan of North America, Inc (Nissan) is recalling certain 2009 Murano vehicles.
The valves within the ABS Hydraulic Control Units (HCU) may react with brake fluids containing specific corrosion preventative additives.
This reaction may cause the valves to not close properly.
