 Description of the problemUpon starting my 2015 leaf, with my foot on the brake, i was able to place the car in reverse; in spite of the brake being depressed, the car immediately began to move. With the brake pedal depressed to the floor, the car continued to move in reverse, until i frantically applied the emergency brake. All dash warning lights became illuminated and the car made a grinding sound, when i stepped on the brake. The tow truck driver had to put car in reverse and use the emergency brake to move the car into a towable position. Per nissan, the intelligent brake control unit failed and would need to be replaced along with the associated harness. Nissan offered to pay $5,500, leaving me to pay $1,500 to cover cost of repair. This is a significant safety concern that the vehicle can have a catastrophic brake failure which completely disables the vehicle. I am very fortunate the failure occurred in an area devoid of any pedestrians and clear of any moving or parked vehicles. I expect that it won
