| Description of the problem | I have been experiencing a brake / abs problem with my 2004 nissan titan. On several occasions as i was driving, the brake light would come on and as i attempted to push the brakes under normal braking conditions, i have almost not been able to stop the truck in time. It felt as though the abs system is activating and brake pedal is fluctuating, vibrating and grinding. I brought it to the dealership on 7/17/14 they said it was a programming issue. I paid about $100 for them to upload a new program. They told me the new program didn't take and then told me the delta sensor in the brake booster was most likely the issue. But unfortunately the entire brake booster assembly must be purchased since they don't sell the delta sensor separately, and the cost is $950 to replace. I called and filed a complaint with nissan consumer affairs the next day 7/18/14. Today 7/24/14, i finally received a call back from nissan consumer affairs letting me know that they were unwilling to help me with this problem. I was told that because it' out of warranty, nissan north america will not pursue any further action in regards to my case & considered the matter closed. |
