SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA, AND WHEN I DROVE THE SUV AND SUDDENLY I HEARD THE BRAKE MAKE A GRINDING LOUD NOISE AND THE BRAKES LOCKED IN. THEN THE BRAKE LIGHT TURNS ON AND THE MASTER CYLINDER FOR THE BRAKE SYSTEM JUST LOCKED IN. I WAS DRIVING 15 MILES IN THE PARKING LOT. I THEN CHANGED THE BRAKE FLUID AND MASTER CYLINDER. THE BRAKES STILL LOCKED IN. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA AND THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN GIVING ME PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT THE SUV. INITIALLY IT WAS ONLY WARPED ROTORS AND EXCESSIVE BRAKE PAD WEAR, BUT NOW THE BRAKES HAVE NEARLY FAILED ON ME THREE TIMES. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES, IT APPEARS THAT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES KICK IN, THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSES FURTHER, AND A LOUD GROANING NOISE CAN BE HEARD EMANATING FROM THE BRAKES. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES IN THE RAIN UNDER VERY MODERATE BRAKING CONDITION (PARKING LOT CONDITIONS) AND WHEN THE PARKING BRAKE HAS BEEN USED DUE TO PARKING ON A HILL. WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS THE PARKING LIGHT , THE SLIP, AND VDC LIGHTS COMES ON. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
WE HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA (WHICH WAS PURCHASED NEW) IT HAS HAD AN ISSUE WHERE THE "BRAKE" LIGHT COMES ON AND THERE IS RAPID PULSATING/GRINDING NOISE FROM THE BRAKE SYSTEM. DURING THIS EVENT, THE BRAKE STOPPING DISTANCE IS SEVERELY IMPACTED AND BRAKING IS DANGEROUSLY INCONSISTENT. WE HAVE BROUGHT VEHICLE INTO NISSAN DEALER AND BEEN TOLD BECAUSE THERE "IS NO CURRENT STORED CODE" THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR US AND THAT WE NEEDED "TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN WHILE THIS EVENT OCCURRED", SO THEY COULD SEE WHAT HAPPENED. THERE IS NO WAY IT WOULD BE REMOTELY SAFE TO DO SO!!!! NISSAN YOU ARE REQUESTING A VERY UNSAFE PROCEDURE!!!!!! EACH TIME THIS BRAKE ISSUE HAS HAPPENED (AT LEAST 6 WITH MY WIFE AND 1 WITH ME), WE WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER AND TURN IT OFF. IN DOING SO IT APPEARS THE VEHICLE "RESET" AND ONCE TURNED BACK ON THE VEHICLE APPEARED TO OPERATE PROPERLY. HERE ARE OUR OCCURRENCES: - ONCE ON/OR AROUND 9/2005- DIDN'T THINK MUCH AT THIS POINT AS WE ALREADY HAD HEARD ABOUT ISSUES WITH ROTORS AND THOUGHT THAT WAS CONNECTED - 4/23/2007- WENT TO DEALER - 8/13/2008- CALLED DEALER TOLD TO DRIVE IT IN WHILE IT WAS HAPPENING BY DEALER - RIGHT BEFORE 10/8/2008 ON 10/8 WE BROUGHT INTO DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM AND A COUPLE OTHER ISSUES - 5/14/2009 - 5/18/2009 - 5/26/2009 IT HAPPENED TO ME WITH BOTH OF MY GRADE SCHOOL BOYS ON VACATION IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. THE VEHICLE HAD A VERY CLEAR ISSUE AND I HAD TO MAKE SOME TOUGH TRAFFIC NEGOTIATIONS TO GET OFF OF THE FREEWAY. ONCE OFF I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND SAT THERE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I TURNED IT BACK ON AND LUCKILY MADE IT TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. I WILL BE SPEAKING WITH THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AGAIN, TO GIVE THEM ONE LAST CHANCE TO TRY AND FIX THIS ISSUE. THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING AS OF YET AND APPEAR TO LACK ANY INTEREST IN FIXING THIS PROBLEM. TAKE A LOOK AT ANY FORUMS OR CAR COMPLAINT WEB-SITES THERE ARE NUMEROUS SUCH COMPLAINTS FOR SAME ISSUE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
2004 NISSAN ARMADA - BRAKE FAILURE. THIS IS AN ON-GOING PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN IN THE PAST TO OPEN A CLAIM. THE PERSON ON THE PHONE RECOMMENDED I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER (WHICH WE HAD DONE AT LEAST 3 TIMES PRIOR). WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT THERE WAS 'NO TROUBLE/PROBLEM FOUND' (ONLY ONE TIME PRIOR DID THEY UPDATE THE CODE TO THE COMPUTER - ALL OTHER TIMES - NO TROUBLE FOUND). I MENTION THAT WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 3 OR 4 TIMES, BUT ACCORDING TO MY WIFE WHO DRIVES THIS CAR EVERY DAY, THIS HAPPENS TO HER AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH - THAT IS OVER 20 TIMES SINCE WE HAVE OWNED IT! I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER, RENTING A CAR FOR THE DAY - JUST TO HAVE 'NO TROUBLE FOUND'. QUITE FRANKLY, MY WIFE DOES NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER INCIDENTS OF THIS PROBLEM REGISTERED. I JUST WOULD LIKE IT FIXED ONCE AND FOR ALL SO MY WIFE AND CHILDREN DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP PUTTING THEIR LIVES AT RISK, WONDERING IF THE BRAKES ARE GOING TO WORK OR NOT. PLEASE HELP. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I WAS COMING TO A STOP LIGHT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE BRAKE LIGHT INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON, THE VEHICLES BRAKE SYSTEM WAS ACTING ERRATIC EVERY TIME I PRESSED ON THE PEDAL. SEEMS LIKE THE ABS TOOK OVER AND ASSUMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LOOSING TRACTION. THE LIGHT STAYED ON AND SO WAS THE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM AS I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. I PULLED OVER TO THE CURB AND TURNED OFF THE CAR, WALKED AROUND ASSUMING SOMETHING WAS UNDER THE CAR AND THERE WAS NOTHING. STARTED THE CAR AND THE AND THE BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DASH WENT AWAY AND SO DID THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE AND IS VERY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. THERE IS A FORUM ON NISSANHELP WHERE THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO MANY PEOPLE AND THE PROBLEM IS NOT RESOLVED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE AS IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE LIGHT COMES ON UNEXPECTEDLY AND GOES AWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RESTARTED AND UNTRACEABLE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ARMADA. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO BOUNCE UP AND DOWN. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND NOTICED THAT TWO BOLTS HAD POPPED OUT OF POSITION AND ANOTHER WAS ABOUT TO POP OFF IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. HE WOULD HAVE NEVER CHECKED THE HOOD IF IT HAD NOT POPPED OPEN WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE CONTACT HAD TO HAVE DAMAGED THE HOOD IN ORDER FOR THIS FAILURE TO OCCUR; THEREFORE, THEY REFUSED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THIS IS VERY UNSAFE BECAUSE THE HOOD COULD HAVE OPENED AND IMPAIRED HIS VISIBILITY. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 12,000.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
"FOR ABOUT THE LAST 6 MONTHS WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A HALF DOZEN TIMES OR SO AN ISSUE WITH BRAKES NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE BRAKES PULSATE WHEN PUSHED AS THOUGH THE ABS IS KICKING IN, GRINDING IS FELT AND HEARD AND BRAKING ONLY BARELY WORKS. THIS ONLY SEEMS TO OCCUR AT LOWER (NON-FREEWAY) SPEEDS AND THE ISSUE USUALLY CORRECTS ITSELF UPON SHUTTING THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTING. APPEARS OUR ISSUE IS TO TSB NTB06-040, BUT I AM NOT SURE AT THIS POINT. GOING TO TRY TO GET IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK AND HOPEFULLY GET THIS ISSUE FIXED. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE NET AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE (SEE COMPLAINT #S BELOW) WITH SOME PEOPLE HAVING ACCIDENTS. MY WIFE NORMALLY IS THE DRIVER AND CARRYING MY 3 YEAR OLD TWINS....WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR THIS ISSUE TO HAVE A RECALL???

AIR BAGS
THE RED AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD. I TOOK IT TO TWO NISSAN DEALERSHIPS AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS MOST LIKELY A FAILED SENSOR IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BUT COULD NOT BE SURE UNTIL IT WAS REPLACED FOR APPROXIMATELY $1400.00 NOT REFUNDABLE IF THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. IT COULD ALSO BE THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM ASSOCIATED WITH THAT SEAT. REPORTEDLY FROM BOTH THE DEALERS COMMENTS AND MY RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE TYPE. *TR

MY AUTO SHOP CALLED COOPERS THEY SAID THEY'LL REPLACE 70% TOWARD COST OF NEW ONES BUT REMEMBER THESE TIRES ARE ONLY 9MOS OLD I WANTED THEM REPLACED AT NO CHARGED. AND WANTED THEM TO HONOR THEIR TIRES. MY TIRES ARE CAUSING ME TO HYDO PLANE IN WATER, THE STEERING IS NOT STABLE ( HEAVY VIBRATION ON STEERING COLUMN WITH SPEEDS OVER 60 MPH) DISPUTE HAVING A NEW ALIGNMENT THEIR IS COUPLING IN TIRES AND A BLISTER ON MY REAR TIRE LEFT DRIVER SIDE.

I SPOKE WITH COOPERS REPRESENTATIVE WHO WAS INSENSITIVE AND WAS NOT RESPONSIVE TO MY QUESTIONING ABOUT TIRES AND SAFETY. AND SAID THAT'S ALL WE CAN DO.THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO SEE THEM TO EVEN CONSIDER REPLACEMENT I SAID LETS DO THAT BUT HE SAID I DIDN'T HAVE TO BECAUSE WE AGREED WITH THE AUTO SHOP FOR 70%I SAID IF THEIR IS A DEFECTIVE MATERIAL IN TIRE WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO SEE THEM? HE THEN GAVE ME A RUN AROUND AND WOULD NOT RESPONSE TO MY QUESTIONING. SO, I SAID WHY WOULD I WANT TO PURCHASE ANOTHER SET OF COOPERS WHEN I'M TREATED WITHOUT REGARDS TO MY SAFETY AND FAMILIES SAFETY?AS WELL AS THE QUALITY OF YOUR PRODUCT I SAID REPLACE THE TIRES WOULD BE THE RIGHT THING TO DO THEY ARE 70,000 MI TIRES WITH OVER 50% WEAR AND RISING AFTER 9MOS. I ONLY USED 20% OF THE TIRE I SAID SHOULDN'T I RECEIVE 80% BACK? HE ALSO NOTED THAT IF A CUSTOMER IS DISATISFIED WITH OUR PRODUCT THAT THEY COULD AT ANYTIME ASK FOR REPLACEMENT. I SAID THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING FOR!!! HE THEN SAID NOTHINGS WRONG WITH TIRES JUST 70% . *TR

ONCE EVERY 2 TO 3 WEEKS, I HIT THE BRAKES IN MY 2004 NISSAN PATHFINDER ARMADA AND IT MAKES A HORRIBLE GRINDING NOISE AND NOTHING HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE DOESN'T STOP. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON. I WAS TOLD BY A FRIEND THAT REPAIRS NISSANS FOR THE EMPLOYEES AT THE NISSAN CANTON PLANT THAT THIS WAS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR THAT MODEL VEHICLE AND IT WAS A SENSOR THAT WAS BAD. HE SAID THEY HAVE REPLACED NUMEROUS SENSORS ON EMPLOYEES VEHICLES. I'M WONDERING WHY THERE WAS NEVER A RECALL. APPARENTLY, THEY HAVE IMPROVED THINGS SINCE THE INITIAL ARMADA WAS CREATED, BUT THAT DOESN'T GET MY VEHICLE FIXED. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT ONE DAY. I AM A SINGLE PARENT AND CAN'T AFFORD THE REPAIR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE SHOP NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT APPARENTLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS CUT OFF, THE SENSOR RESETS AND THE VEHICLE WON'T MESS UP FOR MY REPAIR PERSON. I CAN'T AFFORD TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. ALSO, MY MAIN WINDOW SWITCH WILL NOT ROLL UP MY WINDOWS. MY REAR HATCH WILL NOT UNLOCK. MY MAIN SWITCH WILL NOT UNLOCK ALL OF MY DOORS. *TR
