Consumer Description

DRIVING 2004 NISSAN ARMADA SE OFF ROAD TRAVELING AT LOW SPEED (20 MPH OR LESS) IN TRAFFIC. BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON IN THE DASHBOARD, BRAKE PRESSURE GOES TO NEAR NOTHING (HAVE TO PUSH PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR TO STOP CAR) AND BRAKES MAKE A GRINDING NOISE UNDER THE STEERING COLUMN. CAR STOPS EVENTUALLY BUT NO CONFIDENCE CAR WOULD STOP SUDDENLY. PROBLEM IS FIXED TEMPORARILY IF CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY COULD GO 3-4 WEEKS WITHOUT A PROBLEM, BUT EVERYTIME SEEMS TO BE AT LOW SPEED IN TRAFFIC WITH REPETITIVE USE OF THE BRAKES. NISSAN DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE PROBLEM AND CAN'T DIAGNOSE PROBLEM WITHOUT SEEING CAR WITH BRAKE FAILURE INDICATOR STILL ON. THEY ARE RECOMMENDING POTENTIALLY REPLACING ABS COMPUTER $1,500 BUT NO GUARANTEE THAT WILL FIX PROBLEM. *KB
