Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The factory break boosters on Nissan 240SX model years 1989-1998 leak and drip break fluid onto the frame rail, eating away the rust preventive coating. This allows the elements to contact bare metal, oxidizing it and both weakening the structure of the vehicle and potentially causing the breaks to fail.”
