| Description of the problem | On multiple occasions my recently purchased 2006 armada has had an issue with the brakes where the braek light comes on, there is a terrible grinding sound, & i lose about 75% of my brake function. I only purchased this truck about 5 months ago & it has happened 3x. No telling how many times it happened to the previous owners. This is extremely dangerous. Nissan fails to recognize this is happening even though a simple internet search will show 100s, if not 1000s of armada owners with the same issue. Something needs done asap!! The dealership couldn't "recreate" the problem to fix it, but it's likely if they could, then they'd have to admit what was wrong & that it is nissan's fault. Beware!! |
