| Description of the problem | When starting out from a parked position, sometimes the brakes will make a grinding noise when pressed. If you hit your brakes during this period there is a grind pulsating feeling in the brakes. I don't know if the brakes are really even working during this time, but the only the way to clear this is to somehow stop the car without destroying something and turning the car off and then restarting it. This seems to fix the problem. But it will intermittently do it again in about a month or so. Is nissan doing anything about this problem? I never really feel secure driving because i don't know if this will happen when i 'm at full speed and really need the brakes! |
