| Description of the problem | I have definitely noticed the braking assist displaying a mind of its own, though never on the freeway as yet. Sometimes i just tap the pedal and the brakes apply much more than i was pushing. Other times the brakes apply normally, but do not release immediately after releasing the pedal. Nissan... Something is up here. |
