| Description of the problem | Since purchase we have complained numerous times about the brakes squeaking very loudly every morning when in reverse. During my visit this week, the dealership stated they are aware of the problem (serviceman stated he had the same problem), but the brakes are perfectly fine. The brakes do indeed work, but i am getting neighbor complaints about the very loud squealing when i pull out of the driveway in the morning (seems to happen more in the morning after it has been parked for a while)! This is unacceptable and i would like to know what nissan plans to do to correct this. *jb |
