Recall 19V807 covers 391,479 2015-2019 Murano, QX60, Maxima, and Pathfinder vehicles for an ABS brake-fluid leak. Park outside if warned.
A brake fluid leak on the circuit board can cause an electrical short and increase the risk of a fire. The ABS warning lamp stays lit on the instrument panel when this condition is present. If it remains illuminated for more than 10 seconds after engine start, park outside and away from vehicles or structures. Repair will be free at any franchised Nissan dealer once Nissan opens it.
Nissan is recalling 391,479 2015-2019 Murano, QX60, Maxima, and Pathfinder vehicles because the ABS actuator pump can let brake fluid leak onto an internal circuit board. The leak can cause an electrical short and increase fire risk, so owners should park outside and away from structures until Nissan opens the final dealer repair, which will be free.

What's wrong?
The Anti-lock Brake System actuator on these 2015-2019 Murano, QX60, Maxima, and Pathfinder vehicles is the hydraulic and electronic unit that helps manage braking during a skid. It uses valves and a pump to adjust brake pressure so the wheels keep turning instead of locking up. The actuator also communicates with the dashboard warning system when it detects a brake control problem.
On the recalled vehicles, the actuator pump seal does not seal well enough. Manufacturing variation changed the seal hardness, and high vehicle temperatures with insufficient lubrication can wear the seal early. When that happens, brake fluid leaks past the seal and reaches an internal circuit board inside the actuator.
The warning sign is a continuously illuminated ABS warning lamp on the instrument panel. If that light stays on, the system is warning the driver that the ABS actuator needs attention.

What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2015-2019 Nissan Murano, QX60, Maxima, or Pathfinder is included in this recall.
- Watch the ABS warning light after engine start. If it stays on for more than 10 seconds, park outdoors away from vehicles and structures.
- Do not drive the vehicle if the ABS warning light stays on after engine start; contact a franchised Nissan dealer for guidance.
- Wait for Nissan's repair notice before scheduling the final ABS actuator replacement that stops brake fluid from leaking onto the circuit board.
- Reference recall number 19V807 when you call the dealer, and bring the recall notice if Nissan sent one.
What happens at the repair
Until Nissan opens the final dealer repair, follow the interim warning-light instruction. If the ABS warning light stays on for more than 10 seconds after engine start, park outdoors away from vehicles and structures. Do not drive the vehicle. Once parts are available, a Nissan technician will replace the ABS actuator, free under the recall. Nissan's owner notice includes reimbursement instructions for owners who paid for a related repair before the recall notice on vehicles no longer under warranty. Keep repair paperwork for that claim process.
