Nissan is recalling 298,747 2012-2015 Versa and Versa Note vehicles because the center console trim panel can catch the driver's shoe and slow the move from accelerator to brake. That delay lengthens stopping distance and increases crash risk, and Nissan dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?
The lower center console trim panel on the 2012-2015 Nissan Versa and Versa Note sits beside the driver's footwell, near the accelerator and brake pedals. That trim panel is meant to cover the console structure while leaving enough room for the driver's shoe to move cleanly from the accelerator to the brake.
On affected vehicles, the leading edge of the trim panel sits close enough to the pedal area that a driver's shoe can catch on it. When that happens, the shoe is impeded during the move from accelerator to brake. The problem is not a brake hydraulic failure or an accelerator failure; it is an interior trim shape that interferes with smooth pedal movement.
There is no warning sign before failure. The driver notices the issue only when a shoe contacts the console edge and pedal transition is delayed.
Who's affected?
The scope spans the Versa and Versa Note across the 2012-2015 model years, involving both the accelerator pedal and hydraulic brake system.

What's the safety risk?
Delayed brake pedal application means the vehicle needs more distance to stop, which increases the risk of a crash. Give yourself extra following distance and schedule the recall repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Nissan dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2012-2015 Nissan Versa or Versa Note is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Nissan dealer to schedule the free console trim panel modification that keeps the trim from catching the driver's shoe and delaying braking.
- Bring the recall notice if Nissan mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V507 when you call.
- Leave extra stopping distance and avoid sudden pedal movements until the dealer repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Nissan technician modifies the center console trim panel so it no longer catches the driver's shoe during movement from the accelerator to the brake pedal. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Nissan's reimbursement plan is split by warranty status: warranty-covered vehicles are handled through the warranty, while 2012 vehicles outside warranty have reimbursement included in the owner notice. If you already paid for a related console trim repair, ask Nissan customer service or the dealer service desk how to submit documentation.
