What owners wrote
Anti lock brake pump can leak break fluid onto circuit board causing an electrical short and cause a fire risk. Nissan recommends parking vehicles (in my case a murano platinum 2017) outside. If drivers see anti-lock brake warning for more than 10 sec after engine start, do not drive vehicle. Problem- my car VIN did not come up on the recall so I never received the warning. I experienced an electrical fire under hood (passenger side) when car was off and parked inside my garage.
On january 22, 2020 around 5:30 am I discovered that my backup camera was not functioning. I turned my car off and on at least three times to try and get it to work but that did not resolve the issue. The backup camera is showing the red, green and yellow guide lines but the screen is black. It is not returning any images from behind the vehicle. The vehicle was at home in a parking spot when this occurred. One week later to today, january 28,2020, the backup camera is still not functioning properly.
