Have 3 lights on Dash ABS, AWD, and Brake. Had the vehicle diagnosed, And was told it is the ABS module. Shouldn't this be covered as a safety issue.

On a very foggy morning, was doing about 45 m.p.h.,realized I was coming up on a stop sign in my 2006 murano. I stepped on the brakes, like usual and nothing happened. I slammed on the brakes, after normal pressure didn't work. My car failed to stop after I pushed the brake pedal as hard and fast as I could. I slid I think the brakes locked. I skidded through a stop sign, resulting in being hit by another car. My car was totaled. The other driver's car was most likely destroyed, also. Maybe, I imagined it, but it felt like my car sped up, in addition to the brakes failing. I have whiplash injuries and got badly bruised. I am lucky to be alive. I have (or had) an excellent driving record. Two days before this happened, I was coming to a stop sign and the brakes felt like they might be fading. There was no scrubbing noise, or the high pitched whine worn- out brakes have. The car had a little over 54000 miles on it , and was "my baby", so I took good care of it. Another reason it was well-maintained. I have 12 inch rods in my spine, and depend on my vehicle to protect me. Yes, the airbags, etc. Worked, but I believe the brakes failed, causing the wreck. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Traveling at 35 MPH approaching intersection where light had turned red. Began decelerating as I approached the stopped traffic. Getting closer, to the stopped traffic, I began to brake. I felt a "catch" on the brake pedal, and then it failed and went all the way to the floor. I tried braking four or five times again, but the brake went to the floor and I watched as if in "slow motion" as I knew I would be hitting a large auto transport truck in front of me. Since I had already began decelerating and the amount of damage done to my vehicle in comparison to the size of a double decker auto transport truck was not that extensive , I am guessing I was traveling approx. 25 to 30 MPH at the time of impact. The airbag was deployed on impact. The brakes following the accident were fine; however, I am concerned about this failure occurring again. I have read that there have been complaints about squeaking brakes with the 2006 nissan murano which we have experienced. I am concerned that there may be a computer glitch or problem with the ABS, and could this happen again. The vehicle is currently at the dealership for repair of damage, and I will be going there to discuss the braking problem.

On 4 occasions my nissan murano 06 after stepping on the brakes, the vehicle continued to roll. This happened on a flat road, the vehicle only has ~1300 miles. I believe it is the ABS. I took it to the dealership and they said no trouble code, there was nothing to fix.

Every time I touch the brake I hear a squeaking sound. Sounds almost like a bird. I took it to the dealer and they said they oiled it. The sound went away but is now back again after only a few weeks.
