| Description of the problem | My vehicle was acting completely normal no dash lights until i went to stop at a stop light thats when i applied the brakes to come to a stop my breakes were soft grinding noise and did not want to stop. I look at the dash and the break light was on i pulled to the shoulder of the road put in the parking break and released it. Still same issue. Turned the truck off then back on and now is working completely normal again. After doing research this is a very common problem on the nissan armadas and titans. It is found to be a faulty break booster and sensor. I had 2 of my children with me. It was a frightening experience not knowing if i was going to be able to stop my vehicle. Nissan needs this booster to be recalled. There is absolutely no warning that you may loose your breaks. |
