Description of the problem | It was a rainy day outside. The front and back brake pads/shoes were replaced 10,000 miles previously at a nissan dealership in dover, oh. I was driving on normal pavement. I drove on a highway at speed limit of 70 mph. I drove on a village main st at a speed limit of 25 mph. It did not matter what speed or whether the vehicle was straight or turning: whenever the brake pedal was depressed there was a loud clunking noise. After that, when the gas pedal was depressed there was another clunking noise. The noise was coming from the brakes. I asked a passenger to join me to test the noise and even let them drive. They confirmed. The noise suddenly stopped after 30 minutes of driving. Once it stopped we pulled over and popped the hood and smelled what seemed to be brake fluid. Checked all the fluids in the car and they were fine. |
