Description of the problem	I rounded a corner at about 35 mph (pulling a trailer) and my antilock brakes system went haywire. The brakes were pulsing madly, and the truck slowed slightly. I pushed on the brake pedal and nothing happened. I could not stop the truck!! Luckily, nobody was on the street and i was able to put it in neutral and turn the engine off while still moving about 25 mph and restart the engine at which time the system reset itself. Upon going to the nissan dealer, i was informed that the vcd system (brake actuator) needed a software upgrade and that there was a service bulletin issued for this problem from nissan. I'm appalled that this dangerous problem where the driver cannot control the brakes or stop the vehicle is a known problem, yet there is no recall, or attempt to notify owners... Someone is going to get hurt as a result of this. Not to mention that nissan made me pay $170. 00 to reprogram this faulty critical component... Owners need to be made aware of this problem. I called customer service and they didn't want to hear it.
