| Description of the problem | My 2006 nissan armada had serious brake failure while traveling in a parking lot at less than 15 mph. The brake pedal seized and the abs kicked on, the dash vibrated and the braking power dropped to almost nothing. The car was very difficult to stop even at such a low rate of speed. After stopping and turning the car off the problem seemed to disappear. I refuse to drive the vehicle again until the dealer fixes the problem. Current mileage is just over 32,000 and the problem occurred at 31,980 miles. |
