| Description of the problem | While driving the slip, vdc and brake lights all illuminated on the dash. I stepped on the brakes and the brakes went almost to the floor. The truck eventually did stop but i came close to hitting the vehicle in front of me. I have read and researched thoroughly about this issue and it is well documented that this is a known issue. There is currently a class action lawsuit in california regarding this issue. This has happened to me approximately 4 times over the past year where i have almost completely lost my brakes. Nissan needs to make this right. I believe the problem may be a delta stroke sensor that is housed within the brake booster. I have not replace this yet as i am not sure if this will fix the problem and it is quite expensive. This is very unsafe and there are many complaints regarding this issue out there. |
