2005 Nissan Armada Brakes Problems

My breaking system has a malfunction that comes on and off. Sometimes the brakes automatically stop working and start grinding as if I have no brakes, but when I brought it to be looked at they couldn't find the problem. I notice that when you turn the car off and turn it back on the problems of sides for a little while will eventually come back later. For someone to detect it, they cannot shut the car off at the time that is presenting itself.

I have a 2005 Nissan Armada that has a known problem with its brakes. It has a faulty Delta Brake Sensor and Brake Booster. What happens is that the brake light comeson, the vehicle losses its braking ability and sounds like metal scraping when you apply the brakes. The issue will reset if you turn off the car. Nissan knows about this issue but has failed to send 2004-2006 Armada owners of information on how to get this fixed at a local dealer. Here is a link to the class action settlement: https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/nissan-brake-defect-class-action-settlement/ My complaint is this, there were 350,000 affected vehicles and mine was one of them. I was never notified by Nissan of this faulty part and did not know that Nissan would reimburse me for the repair. The settlement date is now closed but the problem still exists in many Nissan affected vehicles. I called Nissan USA and they said Nissan could do nothing for me. I called my local Nissan dealer and described the problem and they said they could do nothing for me but that I could pay out of pocket to have the brake booster replaced at qa cost of $1500f or parts and labor. The error code associated with this problem is C1179. This issue is a safety issue and it affects the vehicles ability to stop. If you do not see the brake warning light on you do not know that the issue is happening. This could result in a dangerous situation at highway speeds. I would like the NHTSA to get involved and to demand that Nissan repair this known problem free of charge.

DRIVING IN TRAFFIC CAUSES BRAKES TO LOCK AS IF THE PARKING BRAKES WERE SET. I HAVE TO PULL OVER SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, PRESS ON THE PARKING FOOT BRAKE TO ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE THE BRAKES, TURN OFF AND ON THE VEHICLE TO "RESET" THE BRAKES. IT HAPPENED A FEW TIMES ESPECIALLY ON THE FREEWAY. IN ALL MULTIPLE OCCASIONS NEARLY REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE MY FAMILY WITH ME IN THE VEHICLE. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON, ON THE DASH. HAPPENS ON BOTH THE FREEWAY AND THE CITY STREETS IN MOTION AND ONCE WHEN THE BRAKES WAS PRESS IN TRAFFIC.

STARTED HAVING A ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES ON MY NISSAN ARMADA. WHEN YOU PRESSED ON THE BRAKES, THEY WOULD GO TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT WORK AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD GO ON. AFTER PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF AND THE BRAKES WOULD WORK AGAIN. I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT NISSAN KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND SETTLED A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT REGARDING IT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS THE DELTA STROKE SENSOR. NISSAN KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM BUT HAS NOT RECALLED THE VEHICLES. IN FACT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT LIMITED TO THE ARMADA. MY FAMILY AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE INCLUDING OTHERS THAT WERE ON THE ROAD WHEN THE BRAKES WENT OUT.

THE ABS HYDRAULIC BRAKE SENORS HAVE NOW BEEN REPLACED TWICE ON MY ARMADA. THE BRAKES WILL DROP TO THE FLOOR AND MAKE ALL KIND OF NOISES WON'T STOP. THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL FOR ALL OTHER VINS THAN MINE. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO OTHER THAN START CHANGING OTHER PARTS ON MY DIME. NISSAN OF AMERICA HAS TOLD ME THE SAME THING. WE HAVE NEARLY BEEN IN SEVERAL WRECKS. I DO NOT WANT MY WIFE TO END UP IN ONE BECAUSE OF THIS TRUCK. JUST BOUGHT THE SECOND SET OF THESE YESTERDAY AND NEARLY HIT SOMEONE AGAIN TODAY. SINCE I KEEP A GOOD DISTANCE BETWEEN OTHER TRAFFIC AND MYSELF IS THE ONLY REASON WE HAVEN'T BEEN A WRECK YET.

BREAK SYSTEM FAILURE HAS HAPPENED TO ME MORE THAN ONCE. FOR SOME REASON IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE ARE ROCKS IN BETWEEN MY BRAKES AND THE ROTORS. I HAVE TO RESET THE SYSTEM BY SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND TURNING IT BACK ON. I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT ON THE FREEWAY BECAUSE OF IT AND NO INDICATION OTHER THAN THE NOISE THAT IT WAS HAPPENING. ALSO, WHEN A PASSENGER IS IN THE SEAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF. I AND HASN'T FOR OVER 5 YEARS. THE DRIVER SIDE AND/OR PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELTS ALSO DO NOT GET RECOGNIZED AS BEING USED SINCE THE FLASH INDICATOR ON THE DASH KEEPS FLASHING. WHEN I TOOK T IN TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THERE ARE NO RECALLS BUT IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 110000 MILES ON IT AND HAD LESS THAN 80000 WHEN THESE ISSUES STARTED. I JUST WANT MY VEHICLE TO BE SAFE AND EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS THE SAME ONE. BRAKE SYSTEM, DEALER CAN'T DIAGNOSE UNLESS I DRIVE IN THERE WITH THE PROBLEM WHICH ISN'T SAFE AND HAPPENS OCCASIONALLY. I MAY HAVE VIDEO OF THE NOISE FROM THE BRAKE SYSTEM WHICH I WILL LOOK FOR.

PURCHASED VEHICLE USED IN MAY 2015, MY TRUSTED MECHANIC CHECKED IT OUT SEPTEMBER 2015 AND REPORTED BACK IT WAS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NO ISSUES. JULY 2016 EXPERIENCED BREAK FAILURE AT 15 MILES AN HOUR. AGAIN MY MECHANIC TROUBLESHOOTED THE ISSUES AND SAID THE POWER BREAK BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE THEN REFERRED ME TO NISSAN FOR POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I SPOKE WITH CORPORATE NISSAN WHO ADVISED ME TO TAKE IT TO OUR LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO PROVE THE ISSUE EXISTED, FOR ANY POTENTIAL COMPENSATION. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN THEY CONCLUDED REPROGRAMMING THE DELTA STROKE SENSOR WOULD RESOLVE THE PROBLEM; WHICH I HAD TO PAY $300 TO HAVE THIS DONE. ON OCTOBER 2016 INOPERABLE BREAK FAILURE OCCURRED AGAIN AT 65 MILES AN HOUR WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE, AS I WAS APPROACHING AN EXIT RAMP. THIS SAME ISSUE OCCURRED TWICE IN ONE DAY, JUST A WEEK LATER. ONCE AS I LEFT WORK GOING 40 MILES AN HOUR, MY DASHBOARD LIT UP WITH VDC AND SKID LIGHTS, IN ADDITION TO MY BREAK FAILURE LIGHT. THE SECOND TIME OCCURRED GOING DOWN A CITY STREET WHERE I HAD TO DO A ROLLING STOP THROUGH AN INTERSECTION, DODGING ONCOMING TRAFFIC, EVENTUALLY HITTING A CURB TO STOP. AFTER TAKING MY VEHICLE BACK TO NISSAN FOR THEM TO TEST DRIVE (RECREATE) THE PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE OFF THE LOT DUE TO SAFETY HAZARDS. I HAVE SPENT HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH CORPORATE TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE; BUT YET NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM, OR REFUND ME MY MONEY FOR THE FAILED REPROGRAMMING. THIS VEHICLE IS GEARED TOWARDS FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN; AND BOTH MY CHILDREN WERE PRESENT IN THE VEHICLE DURING ALL FAILURES. AFTER SEARCHING THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE, I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF DOCUMENTED CASES REVOLVING AROUND THE SAME SAFETY HAZARD. NISSAN REFUSES TO RECALL THIS PART OR NOTIFY OWNERS OF THE EXISTING ISSUE.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP, WITHOUT WARNING THE BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BASICALLY GOES TO THE FLOOR AND BARELY WORKS TO STOP THE TRUCK. THE BRAKES GRIND AS IT IS PUSHED. IF YOU TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IT SEEMS TO RESET ITSELF. WE ALMOST HIT SOMEONE TODAY TRYING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT ROUGHLY 15-20 MPH WHEN THE ISSUE STARTED (TODAY). WE WERE ON A CITY STREET, BRAKING TO STOP. IT SEEMS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND I AM BOGGLED AT THE FACT THAT NO ONE IS REQUIRING NISSAN TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. EVENTUALLY SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET VERY HURT. HAVING LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OVER YOUR BRAKING IS VERY SCARY, ESPECIALLY WITH MY LITTLE ONE IN THE TRUCK WITH ME . THIS IS A LARGE VEHICLE AND WOULD DO A LOT OF DAMAGE IF IT WERE TO HIT SOMEONE THE NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS. THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN ONCE EVERY 2-4 WEEKS OR SO. IT APPEARS TO BE RANDOM.

I HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPLAINING HERE. I'LL BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND OUT OF NO WHERE THE DASH BRAKE LIGHT WILL TURN ON. WHEN I TRY TO BREAK, THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL PUSH DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND IT WILL SOUND LIKE IS GRINDING AND ALMOST SOUND LIKE A SPRING IS LOOSE INTHERE. BUT WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN TURN IT ON, IT GOES AWAY. I HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW AND THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN, I JUST HOPE IT DOESN'T DO IT ON THE FREEWAY..

READING THE COMPLAINTS AND FOUND OTHERS THE SAME AS MINE. HAVE TAKEN THE NISSAN TO THE DEALER AT LEAST THREE, MAYBE FOUR TIMES, COMPLAINING OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGING WHILE DRIVING WHEN THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN ENTERING A FREEWAY (HIGHWAY) AND DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. WHILE I APPRECIATE THAT OTHERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT IS NOT A FLUKE, IT IS DISCONCERTING AND DANGEROUS. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS 7/23/16!
