I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 40MPH I WAS COMING TO A RED LIGHT AND PROCEEDED TO APPLY MY BRAKES WHEN THE BRAJE PEDAL VIBRATED AND SHOOK MY ABS AND 2 OTHER LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH CAR TOOK SEVERAL TIMES OF APPLYING TGE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. IT FEKT LIKE I HAD NO CONTROL OF BRAKING. THE BRAKES MADE A GRINDING NOISE ABD BRAKES WENT TO LESS THEN 50% OF ORIGINAL BRAKING POWER. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN AND LIGHTS WENT OFF AND BRAKING WAS NORMAL AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED PRETTY MUCH ON A WEEKLY OCCURRENCE SINCE THEN. I'VE CALLED THE DEALER AND ASKED IF THEY HAD ANY RECALLS THEY SAID NO.

I WAS DRIVING AND TOWING A SEA DOO TO THE DEALER. AS I APPROACHED THE DRIVEWAY, I LOST MY BRAKES BY GREATER THAN 50%. THEY WERE GRINDING AND SOUNDED LIKE ABS WAS ON. THIS CONTINUED AS I CREPT ALONG THE DRIVEWAY. THE BRAKE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON DURING THIS TIME. ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON, THE ERROR RESET. THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND THE CAR DROVE FINE. AS I RESEARCHED MY ISSUE, I FOUND MANY ITEMS THAT MATCH THE DESCRIPTION THAT I EXPERIENCED TODAY. THEY ALL HAD NO LUCK AT THE DEALER IN DIAGNOSING A PROBLEM. NISSAN HAS EVEN SETTLED A LAWSUIT PERTAINING TO A BRAKE EXPERIENCE THAT WAS SIMILAR TO MINE TODAY.

AT 61000MILES 2005 ARMADA TAKEN TO TRACY CA NISSAN DEALER THEY GAVE ME ESTIMATE$ 2900 DOLLARS TO REPLACE CATALYST CONVERTER SYSTEM . BUT I FIGURE OUT NISSAN GIVE WARRANTY FOR CAT UP TO 75000 MILES .THAT MEANS THEY ARE DOING BULL SHIH THEY SPOUSE TO BE LET ME KNOW THAT IT WILL BE FREE , RIGHT. BUT GOD LUCK I TOOK OFF BATTERY WIRE AND RESET THEN WENT TO SMOG IN CA AND I WAS PASSED BUT NOW MY TRUCK HAS 83000 MILES AND I GOT AGAIN ENGINE LIGHT THAT SAYS PO420 MEAN CAT CONVERTER NEED TO REPLACE WHICH IS 2800 DOLLARS I CAN'T AFFORD THAT MUCH SO MY QUESTION IS WHO'S FAULT IS IT NISSAN OR ME BUT I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO DEALER AT 61000 MILES BUT THAT TIME THEY CHEATED ME

AN ESTIMATE OF RECORD WAS ORIGINATED AT TOYOTA OF NORTH CHARLOTTE AFTER THE COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED BEFORE, DURING OR AFTER THE COLLISION DESPITE THE MULTIPLE DAMAGES AND MY MINOR INJURY. THERE HAS BEEN AN ON-GOING AIRBAG DIAGNOSTIC CODE THAT HAS BEEN MONITORED DURING OTHER GENERAL MAINTENANCE REPAIRS THAT WERE COMPLETED. IT HAS NOT BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION IF THE VEHICLE CONTAINS A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG SYSTEM. I AM TRYING TO OBTAIN THE NISSAN PART NUMBERS/DESCRIPTIONS FOR THE ORIGINAL AIRBAGS WITHIN MY 2006 ARMADA. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO PROVIDE THIS DATA EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, REPAIRED AND INSPECTED AT THAT LAKE NORMAN-CORNELIUS LOCATION. *JS *JS

I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED FALL 2014. DEC 2014 (1ST INSTANCE) I WAS LEAVING PARKING LOT WHEN MY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY BRAKES MADE A WEIRD GRINDING NOISE & I COULDN'T STOP. WHEN I DID GET IT TO STOP I TRIED PUMPING THE BRAKES THINKING IT WAS FLUID, BUT I CHECKED AND FLUID LEVEL WAS FULL. I STARTED IT AGAIN AND SEEM LIKE IT WAS FINE. DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN TIL MTH HALF LATER, SAME THING. I PUMPED BRAKES, SHUT VEHICHLE OFF, RESTARTED AND IT CLEARED UP. HOWEVER, YESTERDAY JUNE 29, 2015 I WAS TRYING TO GET OFF INTERSTATE AND WAS COMING DOWN OFF RAMP BEHIND OTHER VEHICLES TRYING TO EXIT AND MY BRAKES STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN. I KNOW THAT I HAVE NEW BRAKES AND PLENTY OF BRAKE FLUID. I TOOK IT TO THE GARAGE WHERE I NORMALLY HAVE WORK DONE AND WAS TOLD I NEED TO TAKE IT TO DEALER. SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED, THERE IS NO LONGER WARRANTY AND I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO GET IT FIXED. I HAVE TO HAVE VEHICLE, IM SINGLE MOM TAKING CARE OF MY MOM AND 2 DISABLED SISTERS. IM THE ONLY ONE DRIVING BUT I DON'T WANT TO RISK THEIR LIFE, SOMEONE ELSES LIFE OR MINE IF I CANT GET BRAKES TO WORK PROPERLY.

ON MAY 5 2015 MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE 84 GOING EAST. WHEN SUDDENLY WE HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND THE NISSAN ARMADA STARTED VIBRATING AND WE HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN MY HUSBAND LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD BROKEN OFF COMPLETELY WITH OUT ANY WARNING. THE DRIVE SHAFT DAMAGED THE TRANSMISSION AND THE MUFFLER THE EXHAUST AND ANOTHER THING I DONT KNOW THE NAME. WE WERE VERY LUCKY THAT THE TRUCK DIDN'T FLIP OVER. I CALLED NISSAN LETTING THEM KNOW OF THIS ISSUE THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL GET BACK TO ME ON MONDAY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND ALL DRIVE SHAFTS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED FREE. MY HUSBAND ALREADY REPLACED OURS BUT JUST THE COST OF ALL THE REPAIRS IS WELL OVER 2000 DOLLARS WHICH IN MY OPINION NISSAN CORP SHOULD BE PAYING FOR.

I WAS DRIVING AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON AND THEIR WAS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE, WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKE IT WAS HARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED. I TURN OFF THE VEH AND RESTART AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THIS HAVE HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE YEAR WITH THE VEHICLE. I BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW BRAKE PADS, I HAD NEW BRAKE PADS INSTALLED AND THE ISSUE JUST KEPT ON HAPPENING. THIS IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I FINALLY BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP AND IM BEING TOLD THAT THE ISSUE IS WITHIN THE BRAKE BOOSTER. *TR
