Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: One day last summer, the brakes on my armada failed to work properly. the brake pedal felt like it depressed more than normal and the car did not feel like it was going to stop. when the brake pedal was depressed firmly the car would come to an immediate stop. loud noises coming from near the front of the car could be heard. i drove very carefully across town to horizon nissan notifying the service writer that i would be there shortly. i pulled in. turned the car off. a service advisor came with me for a test drive . the car did not have the problem. i was informed that perhaps a rock got stuck in my brakes and fell out after i turned the car off. two more times, the brakes failed to operate in a safe manner. i pulled off the road. turned the car off. turned the car on and the brakes worked normal. once again, today, the brakes failed to work properly. while waiting at the intersection at a red light, i thought i could reset the brakes to work. turned the car off, on, and the brake light stayed on and the brakes did not work. i arrived at my destination and tested the brakes again. turned the car off - on. brake light went off, but came on after about 10 seconds. i then had the car towed to the dealership as i am very weary of driving the car anywhere not knowing when the brakes are going to act up. *nm |
