Description of the problem	I've noticed the vehicle steering and brakes shaking upon applying while stopping for signal lights or stop signs. It will also happen at freeway speeds if another car pulls over in front of me and i apply the brakes. The incident that happened yesterday - i was traveling through a school zone at 35 mph. I looked at my speedometer to double check my speed and noticed the emergency brake light was on. I looked at my er brake and it was not engaged. When i applied my foot brake to stop at a signal light, the car shook, the brakes made a grinding noise, and made an electronic/spring type noise. The pedal lowered itself about another 1/3 distance before stopping. My heart skipped a beat. What if i couldn't have stop at the school crossing zone and had hit a child? (what would nissan have said to that?) i drove it to my daughter's house and parked in front on level ground. Since i was from out of town, we called a tow truck to take it to a local firestone. The firestone dealer could not find anything wrong with the brakes or pads. Seems like turning off the vehicle and restarting it, reset it. The firestone dealer stated it had to be electronic. I've read that this will happen again and has been happening for quite sometime. If the powers that be can get nissan to recall the gauge inside the fuel tank and the pin on the brakes - then why cannot nissan be forced to correct this more serious brake problem before more accidents or deaths happen.
