Used Nissan Armada — common problems and service

The 2019 Nissan Armada is covered by NHTSA recall 19V-376 for a brake master cylinder seal leak into the brake booster. Symptoms include low brake fluid, ABS or brake warning light, a low or hard brake pedal, increased pedal travel, and longer stopping distance, which can lead to partial loss of brake assist. Have a dealer verify the open recall was completed; the recall repair is free, while owner-paid master cylinder and booster replacement typically runs $800 to $1,500.

2020 through 2022 Nissan Armada models are subject to a safety recall for a fuel pump module flange that can crack and leak fuel. Look for fuel odor, visible dampness or leaks around the tank or pump area, or a fuel puddle under the vehicle, because a fuel leak increases fire risk. Confirm by VIN that the dealer replaced the fuel pump module; the recall repair is free, while owner-paid replacement is commonly $900 to $1,500.
