| Description of the problem | 1. "brake" light came on instrument panel. 2. Light first came on about one month ago and has gone on and off since then. Brakes will sometimes lurch and almost feel like i have no brakes. I have had no wrecks yet but have had some close calls since it feels like i cannot stop at first. 3. The nissan dealership said that the master solenoid or master cylinder is leaking and needs to be replaced for almost $500 and that this has been pretty common on altimas with various mileage. Numerous others have had this same problem that i have seen on the internet. |
