CARS.COM

Vehicles Affected: Approximately 47,000 model-year 2013-15 Nissan Leaf electric cars manufactured from Nov. 19, 2012, to July 31, 2015

The Problem: During very cold temperatures, the relay inside the electronic brake booster may freeze, requiring the driver to exert more effort to slow the vehicle. If the brake relay fails, longer distances or additional brake effort would be required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The Fix: Dealers will reprogram the brake control unit software for free.

What Owners Should Do: Nissan has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners can call the automaker at 800-647-7261 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or go to www.safercar.gov, for more info.
