  • Nissan recalls 540,000 models over brake pedal pin and fuel gauge problems

    Great news everyone, more recalls! After GM started the week with over 1 million Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac models and Mazda’s seat heater problem in the 2010 CX-9 from earlier today, Nissan has just revealed that it will recall 539,864 from all over the world, most of them from the United States of America.

    There are two main problems plaguing specific vehicles. A brake pedal pin might become disengaged, affecting the stopping power of the car or truck, or the fuel gauge indicator might not properly indicate the precise amount of fuel left in the tank.

    These problems haven’t caused any accidents just yet, but Nissan will repair all of them. The cars affected by the brake pedal pin problems are: 2008-2010 Nissan Titan, Armada, Quest and Infiniti QX56. Out of the complete number, 178,916 are located in the US while 25,869 outside of it.

    The models affected by the fuel gauge problem are: 2005-2008 Nissan Titan, Armada and Infiniti QX56, as well as Nissan Frontier, Pathfinder and Xterra models produced between January and March of 2006 or between October 2007 and January 2008. 418,865 such vehicles are in the US, while 53,253 elsewhere.

    Nissan will begin to notify the owners of such cars as soon as possible. If you are one of them, you’re advised to get in contact with the Japanese company at 1-800-NISSAN1 (1-800-647-7261) for Nissan models, and 1-800-662-6200 for Infiniti ones.
