“When driving at slow speeds break light comes on, and the brakes vibrate. I've taken the car to the dealership and the technicians could not find the problem. I then shut off the engine and restarted the vehicle and the brakes worked properly. The same issue has happened twice, once at lax, and the most recent being today 6/11/2019.”

NHTSA complaint #10628300, filed 2014-08, 106,000 miles“While driving my vehicle I applied the brakes to slow for a turn. My brakes make a loud grinding sound and were not properly working.

I have read several other stories of this happening to others. Why isn't Infiniti doing anything about this? This has happened a few times since I have owned this vehicle.”

At random times, it is difficult to bring the vehicle to a stop. It acted like the ABS was trying to engage. It was like I was slipping on something when I was applying the brakes. There is a slight metal rattle noise while pressing the brake pedal all the way down while trying to come to a stop. The brake light comes on. There is no shaking of the steering wheel or vehicle. No fluid leaked or anything I could see. …”
