| Description of the problem | Approximately middle of 2009, was pulling up to stop sign and the brakes did not want to stop and made a horrible crunch sound with peddle all the way down the vehicle eventually stopped. Contacted nissan and made arrangements for a dealer to look at it. Of course it doesn't do this all the time, but when it does it is very frightening... They supposedly reset the sensor and said that it may ifs the problem then again not... Went on a forum and there is several owners of this same type of vehicle... Since the it has happen several times. I made a compliant with you people and nissan. It should be a recall... This is an on going problem. Our vehicle is garage kept and low miles. We bought for pulling our toy hauler which we now don't feel safe to pull with this continuous issue... Nissan knows there is an issue and does nothing but trying to get us to pay a 1,000. 00 plus to replace the break booster and sensor with no promises do curing the problem..... Please, what does it take to have a recall before there is a serious fatal accident. Thank you. |
