| Description of the problem | Post that i submitted to nissan: my nissan 2004 titan crew cab had a very scary brake problem today. I lost most or all of the braking capability in the truck. It had a clunking noise when trying to apply brakes. The brake light was on. I stopped the car. Ck'ed fluids (all ok) and restarted. Problem went away after restart. Pretty certain the dealer will not find a problem, they rarely do until it is completely broken. I have 51k miles and several brake problems. First: is this covered by my 60k mile power train wrnty and is there a fix? I have left it at the dealer today but i need to know where the manufacturer stands (in writing or a reply to this email). Second, since this is such a severe safety issue we will assume that no reply to this email within 24hrs means the car is ok from the manufacturer point of view and no issues known to the manufacturer exists that deal with brakes or brake failure. The d&t of this submission is 3:30 pm feb 25th 2007. Cc of this submission has bee sent to the cpsc and the nhtsa. Tks for your prompt attention. Joe. *nm |
