“Bought this 2005 Nissan Armada new in 2005. Since the day I bought it the drivers door has been very noisy and opens slightly when at highway speeds and hit a bump. Dealer says they cannot duplicate he issue and it is normal. Also have had the truck in 5 or more times because front end shimmy makes steering wheel shake at highway speeds. They have balanced the truck everytime and still has not helped. Only 25,000 mile on the truck and all these problems. They need to replace the drivers door and find the issue in the front end making the steering wheel shake. Not happy!”
NHTSA complaint #10181186, filed 2007-01, 10,500 miles“When driving and when the brake is applied to stop the brake light comes on and the brakes sound like they are scrubbing and the brake petal goes to the floor the vehicle slows a little but it is still rolling. The vehicle then has to be put in park, the engine then has to be turned off. You then have to wait a few seconds and restart vehicle. If this is not done the light doesnt go off and the braking is the same. Also the front passenger door lock works randomly. …”
