2023 Nissan Leaf: Service Brakes, Hydraulic recall

What's wrong

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2023 LEAF vehicles. The right-hand brake tubes may have been damaged during production and could corrode, possibly causing a hole in the brake line and a brake fluid leak.

Why it matters

A brake fluid leak can reduce braking performance and extend the distance required to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and replace the right-hand brake tube, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 7, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is PC976.
