| Description of the problem | On 10/12/07 i was driving my 2004 nissan titan on the interstate. My brakes totally failed and i had to coast and use the transmission to stop. Their was minimal braking when i had the pedal in the floor and the truck shook violently. Upon restarting the car the brakes seemed to work. I contacted nissan and was told after telling the person what happened that my computer had a glitch. It took her like two seconds to come up with how to fix it over the phone. I thought it was really funny that what they called a glitch could have killed me and others. They supposedly fixed it when i took it in. From research this sounds pretty common with this truck. I have been told that resetting of the computer would fix it. If it is that simple then nissan should do a recall and reset them all before someone dies or is seriously injured. *jb |
