IN MORNING, STARTED CAR, DROVE DOWN ROAD SHORT DISTANCE,WENT TO STOP AT STOP SIGN AT HIGHWAY AND BRAKES WERE HARD, WOULDN'T DECOMPRESS AT ALL, SLID ONTO HIGHWAY. TOOK TO DEALER, CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT WAS IN WI, WAS COLD OUTSIDE,PARKED OUTSIDE AT NIGHT. THIS ALSO HAPPENED LAST YEAR IN WINTER, HAD IT HAPPEN TWICE, ONCE BACKING UP AFTER WORK AND ANOTHER AT STOP SIGN IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING CAR WHERE BRAKE PEDAL WAS FROZEN AND CAR WOULDN'T STOP. NARROWLY AVOIDED ACCIDENTS IN THESE CASES. SEEMS TO WORK BETTER AFTER CAR WARMS UP FOR A BIT. LAST YEAR, NISSAN DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND CLOSURE VALVE WHICH COST ME OVER 617.00 AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL THIS YEAR. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR NOW SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES TO ME. I COULD'VE BEEN IN VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OR DIED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR
BACKED UP CAR IN PARKING GARAGE AND BRAKES DIDN'T DECOMPRESS AT ALL, PEDAL WAS HARD, KEPT BACKING UP NARROWLY MISSING ANOTHER CAR- KEPT TRYING TO DECOMPRESS PEDAL AND EVENTUALLY IT STOPPED THE CAR BUT IT WAS HARD TO. LET CAR SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL ON AND OFF AND TESTING IT. IT SEEMED TO BE BETTER AFTER AND I DROVE HOME VERY SLOWLY RELYING ON LETTING OFF THE GAS TO SLOW AND STAYING FAR BEHIND EVERYONE. VERY SCARY- IT COULD'VE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY. IT ALSO HAPPENED THE WEEK BEFORE BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS ICE UNDER THE CAR WHEN I STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, IT WENT PAST THE STOP ABOUT 2 FEET. I THOUGHT IT FELT HARD BUT IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY I THOUGHT IT WAS THE ICE/SNOW. *TR
