The 1995 Nissan 240SX has 2 recalls, both concerning a brake warning light that fails to illuminate when brake fluid drops to a low level, leaving the driver with no indication that braking ability may be reduced.
The defect traces to a wiring issue that prevents the low-level switch in the master cylinder reservoir from triggering the dashboard warning light, so a driver could lose brake fluid and never see any sign of it on the instrument panel.
