Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2004 nissan armada se , normal highway driving conditions , partial brake failure, feels like brakes are applying abs ( large pulsations in peddle) brakes feel maybe half as effective at stopping the vehicle as opposed to when the brakes are working properly. this failure is accompanied by a loud metal on metal sound. based on my findings this appears to be a software problem and is easily fixed with a reflash of the vehicles computer. this problem could lead to many accidents and when a vehicle this big and heavy can't stop the accident's could likely be fatal . i'm posting on here in the hope that other people who have not yet had this problem can be at least be aware of it. *tr
