| Description of the problem | Brake pedal goes to the floor when abs activates for no apparent reason. This has happened several times since the vehicle turned 50k miles. It usually happens when turning and hitting a bump at slow speeds. The brake pedal usually recovers after a few days. The vehicle will stop during brake failure but the pedal goes to the floor before it will stop which is very scary and dangerous. I guess someone will have to die because of this factory defect before a recall happens. My 2009 nissan murano was bought new and has been very well maintained. It has less than 60k miles on it now. Something has to be done about this brake malfunction before a death occurs from it. |
