I was coming up to a stop light and went to use the brakes and the pedal hesitated and would not grab normal like they usually do. The brake light was now on, so I decided to pull over in a parking lot and try and look to see what was wrong. I turned the car off and opened the hood to make sure I had fluid and that there was nothing obvious. Everything looked fine. I started the car back up and the brake light was not on anymore and the brakes were working. A few months went by and then it happened again. It has started to happen more frequently. I saw a trend where it would happen when I was driving for one-two hours on the highway and I would notice the brake light come on. I would make sure that I would start slowing down and trying to brake a lot sooner than I would normally have to. Recently this has started to happen more frequently even when I am doing short distance driving near my home. I have been to three different shops to look at my brakes and even spent over $600 to get new brakes and check everything out and make sure they are working properly, but it started happening a week after. I was told that I would have to take this to a nissan dealer and that this is a manufacturer issue. I plan on bringing my armada to a dealer later this week. I fell unless the brakes are not working right when I bring it in, they will not do anything. The brake pedal / brakes not working when I go to brake have happened well over 25 times in the past year. I hope it does not take something tragic to happen for nissan to address this and issue a recall.
