The recall report submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that a transmission control valve in some vehicles may be prone to excessive wear over time. This could lead to a gradual loss of pressure, resulting in harsh shifting for drivers.
In rare instances, the rear wheels might experience a brief lockup or remain locked, significantly increasing the risk of a crash, according to the report.

NISSAN RECALLING OVER 26,000 VEHICLES DUE TO DOOR ISSUE THAT COULD INCREASE RISK OF CRASH
To address this issue, dealers will install new transmission control module software designed to monitor valve performance and detect excessive wear. If a potential problem is identified, the transmission will be limited to fifth gear to mitigate the risk of wheel lockup.
