SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:CALIPER
ROTORS WERE DETERMINED TO BE WARPED AT 2300 MILES(AUG). THEY WERE RESURFACED AND NEW PADS, AND CALIPERS WERE INSTALLED. NOW AT 4600 MILES (OCT) STEERING WHEEL & VEHICLE STARTING TO VIBRATE WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. USUALLY OCCURS WHEN COMING TO A STOP FROM FREEWAY SPEEDS. CONTACED DEALER WHO INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A NEW "KIT" TO FIX THE ROTORS. ANOTHER BANDAID???? THESE BRAKES ARE NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR THIS VEHICLE. UNTIL NISSAN REPLACES THE ROTORS WITH LARGER ONES, CAPABLE OF STOPPING THE VEHICLE PROPERLY, THIS PROBLEM IS GOING TO CONTINUE. *AK
