Nissan Motor Co.’s North American unit said late Tuesday it is recalling 539,864 vehicles due to brake-pin and fuel-gauge problems, most of them in the U.S.
The brake-pin recall stems from “three reported instances of brake pedal pins partially disengaging, causing a loss of normal braking ability,” the company said.
That recall involves the Nissan Titan, Armada, Quest and Infiniti QX56 of model years 2008 to 2010.
“Nissan has determined that a manufacturing error on the part of the supplier is at the root of this issue,” the company said in a statement.
The unrelated fuel-gauge problem involves “vehicles at higher mileage levels” showing wrong levels of fuel, resulting in some drivers running out of gas.
