Description of the problem	When traveling back from washington d. C. In heavy traffic i looked at the speedometer of my 2005 nissan armada and noticed my brake light was lit up on my dash area. When i tried to apply the brakes i had very minimal braking power approximately 20-30% at best. This became a very serious and scary situation when we realized we were heading into a traffic jam! I was able to ride on the shoulder and apply the brakes until we were able to stop but by no means did i have the braking capability that we should have. The braking system seems to fix itself when you turn the ignition off and restart the car however this doesn't fix the problem. Unfortunately the vehicle doesn't provide a code when it is restarted. When i was finally able to drive my vehicle to a service station they provided me with a code to give to my nissan dealership. After doing a little research i was astonished to find how many nissan owners were having the same issue and how the dealership can not really fix the problem. This has happened multiple times since our 1st incident back in 2009 and it is extremely scary. I have read other peoples complaints on the internet of the same issue and nissans supposed fixes that end up not working and costing people hundreds of dollars. I simply want to be able to drive my vehicle without fear of my brakes going out and putting myself, children and others in a dangerous situation. Nissan needs to come up with a solution and fix the problem asap because if had i not been able to pull off on to the shoulder or off into a gas station when this happens with no warning it could result in injury or possibly death. I am about ready to go to the news with this story because nissan is not fixing the problem nor is there a recall for the issue. This can cause great injury or worse death if not handled correctly and soon.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
