| Description of the problem | Slowing for a stop, brake pedal mushed and a grinding abs shudder presented. As speed was low, i was able to manage a stop of the vehicle. Returned home slowly and turned the truck off. Turned it back on and the problem was gone. Two days ago the slack pedal and grinding noise occurred again. Called dealership who replied "no awareness of similar complaints. Bring in when experiencing symptoms." researched online and found numerous complaints. Requested a service time at the dealership for replacement of the delta stroke sensor/booster components. Cannot imagine driving this big truck hoping to lose braking at a time when, with no risk to myself or others, the dealership can see/hear the problem. Shockingly unethical! My only concern is that the new components may be just as faulty. Please add my voice to those calling for nissan and/or the ntsb to address this before someone loses their life ... Or have they already and it has not been attributed to this failure?? *tt |
