ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
Ignition coils have failed and been replaced and now ABS/tcs indicator lights flash on and off; dealer told me ABS was not operational if the light was on, but ABS is operational based on self-test on the road. Based on the number of electrical/ignition complaints, it is clearly an electrical problem that nissan and/or the dealer is not addressing.
Abs brake failure.
Rotors cause severe drievability problems at speeds over 40 MPH and may impact effectivesness of ABS system.
When applying ABS brakes pedal goes to the floor, causing extended stopping distance, and resulting in a collision. Please give any further details.
