Description of the problem	On approximately september 24, 2013 i was driving down my street heading to the store. When approaching a traffic light, i applied the brakes and the brake light went on and i had sudden loss of braking power, with a grinding noise, loose braking motion. The brake pedal actually went all the way down to the floor panel. I was able to stop vehicle, although i had approximately 70-80% reduced braking power. Imagine how scary it was to try and stop a 6,000lbs vehicle with only 20% of your normal braking power. I came within inches of hitting the vehicle in front of me. I turned the vehicle off and back on and problem was gone when i restarted. I took it in to my mechanic, who attempted to see the problem for himself. However, it did not repeat the same symptoms. Therefore, he couldn't diagnose the problem. A few days later, it happened again. I went immediately went to my mechanic so that he could see the problem for himself. Unfortunately, he wasn't in but one of his employees test drove the vehicle. Since i didn't turn off the vehicle this time, he was able to experience the trouble i was having. I returned to my mechanic the next day and he advised me that i should contact nissan to find out if it's a recall item since his research showed that many people have complained about the same exact problem. I have already sent inquiries through the nissan website. However, no response has been given. I have had re-occurrences on numerous occasions and the frequency has been increasing. As a matter of fact, as of recently, now all the lights on my dashboard go on for no apparent reason, then i lose braking power. I use my vehicle for work. This could become a real issue. Especially if it results in an accident or worse. Why is nissan not owning up to their responsibilities?
