| Description of the problem | i have been experiencing a problem with the brakes on my 2006 nissan armada. Purchased 2006 armada less than 20 days ago,. Since the 2nd week the brakes will make a scary noise (can't really describe it - grinding), the brakes work at about 10% and the brake light goes on. Once the vehicle is turned off, the brake light goes out, the noise disappears and the brakes work at 100% once again. I recently googled the problem and see that there are hundreds of people with the same problem. I can believe that nissan is not doing anything with this issue. |
