I received notification of a stop lamp switch recall from Nissan and made an appointment with the local dealer, who is unable to get the parts needed. I contacted Nissan and was told that the parts would not be available until fall 2021, possibly in October. They said I should drive it "at my discretion," and the symptoms could be that the brake lights won't work, which could cause collision or the car won't start. I can call them back if these things happen, but unless or until they do, I should just drive it "at my discretion. " I love my car and it has less than 4,000 miles on it. I am now skeptical of driving it. It's now may and I have to worry until probably October than my brake lights aren't working or that my car won't start.
