What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 nissan armada. While traveling at speeds of 15 MPH, the brakes did not engage while applying the brake pedal. The vehicle was not diagnosed and there were no prior warnings. The current and failure mileages were 50,000.
The brake failure occured while driving on a city street at 35MPH, it acted like the ABS system failed. This happened on a saturday. I called the nissan dealer we purchased it from the following monday to get an appointment to have it checked out. The dealer got me in the next day and the tech said the brake master cylinder and sensor was defective and it needed to be replaced. The service manager for the dealer said the part was $700.00 and labor was $400.00-500.00 but it would only be 80 percent fixed.
