Description of the problem	1. The events leading up to the failure: - i was on a highway overpass bridge, braking as i approached the red stoplight & preparing to enter the highway on-ramp. As i was braking, i felt a lost of brake control, slipping momentarily for 1 second. At first i brushed off the sensation as due to bridge vibration, possibly due to minor earthquake or vehicles/trucks passing through the bridge. - about 3 weeks after the 1st event, i was approaching an intersection and the traffic light was red and applying light & constant pressure, i lost control of the brake again for like 1s before regaining control. My car was within inches of hitting the car in front of me. - about 3 days after the 2nd event, i was approaching a red intersection, but this time my car is ahead of everyone. As i was applying the brake, i again lost control of the brake for about a second before regaining control. My car ended up in the middle of the intersection & other angry drivers ended up honking at me. 2. The failure, how often it occurs, its consequences: a momentary sensation of losing brake control, as if i am driving & slipping on ice. All 3 events happened under 30-40 mph, with light but constant braking applied. It is like there is something triggering/not triggering the abs. The road condition in all 3 events is paved smoothly, dry, not raining. It happened about 3 obvious times in the past 2 months. As a result, i have to give myself more distance when braking at low speed. In all 3 events, there were 2 other adults in the car as witness. I still feel it other times, but i gave myself more distance to anticipate the sensation. 3. What was done to correct the failure. After event 2 & 3, i brought the car to the dealership for inspection but they said they couldn't find anything wrong, nothing was replaced and asked me to bring it back next time it happened. I told them that next time someone might get killed or i might be dead and not coming back. 2008 nissan armada se 4x4.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
