| As i was driving the brake light came on and a very loud noise came on with it. my truck began to lock up and slow down. after trying to step on the brakes to get it to stop several times, it finally came to a stop. i was terrified because i didn't think the truck would stop and i almost ran into the back of someone. after getting the brakes to work, i put the truck in park and turned it off. i sat there in traffic with my hazard lights on and waited for about a minute. i started my truck back up and put it into drive. i drove a few feet and the entire ordeal started all over again. this time after getting it to stop. i put it in park and sat in traffic for about 3-5 minutes with my hazard lights on. after i started it up again, the truck drove fine. this is not the first time this has happened, and i've taken it to several dealerships, but naturally they could find nothing wrong. i reported it to nissan and each time i took it to them for service, they never found anything wrong with it. i even went on a dashboard on line to see if anyone else was experiencing this problem, and they have. some say it was the brake booster, but after they got it changed they still had the same problem. i've been experiencing this problem since i have had the truck and when it happened the first time, i was told that sometimes it takes a little longer for the computer to register that the hand brakes are off. i was told this by nissan service department. this needs to be a safety recall because it truly is a safety issue. this problem has gotten worse as the years go by. something is wrong and it's something that has been wrong with the vehicle. it only happens at certain times and i have had my brakes inspected, changed, and all of the above. someone needs to put this out to nissan and have them issue a recall before someone get's seriously hurt or worse killed. | |||
