SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
AT 941 MILES, 9 DAYS AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE; THE FRONT BRAKES WOULD MAKE A SOUND WHEN STEPPING ON AND LETTING OFF THE BRAKES. IT ALSO FELT LIKE THEY WERE DRAGGING. A LOT OF BRAKE DUST WAS ALSO NOTED ON THE RIMS. IT FELT AS IF THE FRONT BRAKE PADS WERE WORN OUT. THE DEALER CHECKED ALL 4 BRAKES AND GAVE MY HUSBAND A "REASON" WHY THE PADS WERE WEARING SO SOON. BRAKES ON FRONT FOUND TO BE AT 12MM WITH NO ABNORMAL WEAR...ROTORS WERE SAID TO BE OK AS WELL. ALSO NOTED A SNAPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING LEFT , SLOW TURNS, SHARP TURNS AND WHEN WE ALMOST WOULD COME TO A STOP. DURING ROAD TEST THEY SAID THEY COULD HEAR THE ABS CLICK AND IT WAS NORMAL AS WAS ALL OTHER SUSPENSION. AND FOR SOME REASON THE STATE INSPECTION STICKER HAD NOT BEEN UPDATED PRIOR TO OUR LEAVING THE LOT. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAD A HEAVY PULSATING OF THE STEERING COLUMN AND BRAKE PEDAL DURING ROUTINE BRAKING I INFORMED MY DEALER OF THIS AT 8500 MILES AND WAS INFORMED THIS IS NORMAL. AT 9,000 MILES I WAS INSISTENT THAT THEY LOOK AT MY TRUCK AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS, PADS, TORQUE MEMBER, REPLACED REAR BRAKE PADS AND MACHINE THE REAR ROTORS, I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WOULD NEED TO BE DONE ABOUT EVERY 6,000 TO 9,000 MILES BECAUSE THE BRAKING SYSTEM IS TOO SMALL FOR A TRUCK THIS SIZE. *NM

I PURCHASED MY NISSAN TITAN IN JAN OF 2006, AND SINCE THEN HAVE BEEN PLAGUED BY REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. THE MOST RECENT AND MOST ANNOYING HAS BEEN THE FRONT BRAKES. OVER THE COURSE OF A FEW WEEKS, MY TRUCK WOULD START TO SHUDDER VIOLENTLY WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES. UPON HAVING THE PROBLEM SERVICED I WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WARPED TO THE POINT OF FAILURE. THE ENTIRE FRONT BRAKE SYSTEM WAS REPLACED AT NO COST TO ME.
