2 Brake Master Cylinder problem

Failure Date: 05/12/2010

Multiple brake failures with my 2005 Nissan Armada. Nissan motor America is well aware of the serious safety defects in my vehicle but will not honor the 2 times of a major system failure to replace the vehicle. This is the 4th time I have had a major brake failure on the vehicle including its systems and computer components. Parts have been replaced in my vehicle 4 times. The last time, I was assured by a dtc from California who flew up to wa who authorized the replacement of the entire braking system which failed again "it would never happen again". Multiple failures on the diagnostics revealed codes which was again authorized the replacements of parts from a consumer affairs regional manager: codes: vehicle dct c11110-controller failure, p1832 tcs op signal, p1831-vdc op signal, p1828 -line pres. In short, master vaccum, master cylinder, abs control unit, all were replaced again. Nissan fp numbers: 47660-zq21b actuator assy. 47210-zc01c master vac assy, 46010-7s20a cyl brake master, wiring connectors, brake fluid. . . Etc, etc. This is another failure attempt for Nissan to skirt the seriousness of this issues of my vehicle and hundreds of others if not thousands. Service advisor from town Nissan in wenatchee mentioned that the rotors has been turned. Work not performed. Lied to me as a customer. Now I have major break fade from my vehicle being tested from the dealership to try and duplicate the failure initially and road testing it for proper function. The first 3 brake failures occurred within the first 2 years of the vehicles life. 3200 miles - rotors failed, 5800 miles-major brake failure all components replaced. 13,000 miles-another major brake failure, parts replaced again, 22,000 miles rotors warped & replaced. 28,000 miles, brake failure again, major systems replaced again. 49,000 miles again brakes failed. Major systems replaced. When will Nissan listen? after a death in a school zone? crosswalk? myself? replacement of parts is a poor attempt for Nissan.
