Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving, the ABS brake light comes on and when I try to brake, the brakes make a grinding/groaning noise and the vehicle does not brake properly. This has happened on several occasions. It is always sporadic. When the vehicle is shut off, something resets and it won't do it again. So the Nissan dealership says they can't fix it because they can't find anything wrong. It is a safety issue because it can happen anytime and it affects the brakes working. If there is a crash in the future, it will be the fault of Nissan because I am documenting everything, including this safety complaint.”
NHTSA complaint #10541808, filed 2013-09, 104,663 miles“My brakes failed twice in my 2005 Nissan Armada w/55k miles. The first time, my brakes failed to stop me at an intersection, with a near miss collision. The brake light came on & there was a horrible grinding sound, the brake pedal pulsated & I had to take it all the way to the floor to attempt to stop my vehicle. I immediately pulled over and was towed to my mechanic. I was told there was nothing wrong with my brakes? The light no longer came on and the sound was gone. Approx 3 months later it happened again. Driving 35 MPH I started to brake and the exact same thing happened again. …”
NHTSA complaint #10468125, filed 2012-07, 55,000 miles“Problem with car accelerating spontaneously when brake booster sensor fails at random times. Initial problem with brake peddle going soft and the anti-lock braking system gets activated when braking trying to do standard braking. The brake light turns on, the peddle goes to the floor, brakes are not normal and very touchy and the car shudders viciously to a stop while. Loud noise is scary while brakes not firing in the usual peddle position and feel like mush. …”
