Known issues on the 2007 Sentra. One recall is on federal record for this model year, covering the brake master cylinder: a machining irregularity at the supplier can leave a gap in the internal seal groove, letting brake fluid slowly leak into the brake booster assembly and illuminate the brake warning light, and if that warning is ignored one of the brake circuits may not operate as designed, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 154 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind the brake hydraulic system are here.
Whether you're bleeding the brake circuits after a master cylinder swap or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2007 Sentra.
