| Component | SERVICE BRAKES |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | This problem has happened multiple times, driving along and then the brake light appears on the dashboard and when i apply the brakes the pedal goes to the floor and there is a loud grinding noise and it takes a very long time for the car to stop. If you get the car stopped and turn the ignition off and back on it will reset itself back to normal until it happens again. This has happened 3 times and have taken it to nissan and they say "well its not happening to the car right now so we cant diagnose it" nissan should be recalling these vehicles before someone gets killed. If you google search this type of problem there are literally hundreds of people saying they are having the same issue. I don't understand why brakes are not a recall, they are probably the most important part to a car next to the motor and nissan is just letting people fly around and not be able to stop. Shame on you nissan. |
