Description of the problem	The failure is with the abs system on my 2004 maxima. There is a documented tsb for this problem for 2004-07. A poor design of rear wheel assembly(by nissans own admittance) causes wheel sensor to prematurely fail, causing abs controller/solenoid to fail. This has been documented to occur with less than 40,000 miles on a vehicle. This in turn completely disables the vehicle's abs system. Nissan refuses to issue a recall or even assist with repairs, even with all of the reported incidents. In most incidents that i found, it fails right after the factory warranty has expired. In my particular case, i have an extended pre-owned warranty through nissan. Though, nissan says that it isn't covered under my warranty. Repairs are estimated to cost in the area of $2100. 00. As heavy as the vehicles are, not having functioning abs can be very dangerous. I don't know exactly how many people have had this problem, but a quick search of automotive forums for the nissan maxima returned a great amount, completely describing the problem and fix needed.
