WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Titan XD and 2018 Nissan Titan. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
  • Burnish contact surfaces between brake pads and disc brake rotor according to the following procedure after refinishing the disc brake rotor, replacing brake pads or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
  • Be careful of vehicle speed. Brakes do not operate firmly/securely until pads and disc brake rotor are securely seated.
  • Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
  1. Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
  2. Depress brake pedal until vehicle stops.
  3. Release brake pedal for a few minutes to allow brake components to cool.
  4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 until pad and disc brake rotor are securely seated.
