What owners wrote

A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.

Bought the vehicle new in january, 2007. Noticed a crack in the windshield one day in april without a particular incident to have caused such a crack. There was no indication that a rock had chipped the windshield causing the crack. A new windshield was installed on 5/2/2007. Afterwards, I have knowledge of three other 2007 model nissan vehicles (armada, altima, titan) that have similar windshield cracks without apparent causes.

April 2007

Since approximately 34,000 miles I have experienced intermittent problems with the ABS system on my 2004 nissan armada. Periodically while driving, the brake light will illuminate when brakes are applied and the ABS system activates. The brakes begin to groan, are spongy, have reduced braking power, and make a sound like a large spring being released. The vehicle continues these symptoms until the ignition is turned off. The speed at which the event occurs varies from 5 to 50MPH.
