| Description of the problem | The brakes fail, make a grinding sound... Apparently turning the car off resets the delta s sensor. Do a google search on nissan armada and brake booster and you will find many pages of the same complaint. It happened intermittantly over the course of several years. I took it to a dealer within the past year - they said they had never heard of it. Charged me $100 to confirm what i told them - bad brake booster, change delta sensor. They suggested i call nissan north america re: any acssitance with the 900+ fee to fix it. Nissan north america said they have never heard of this issue and said they would not assist in any way with the cost of repair. |
