Brakes Failed problems of the 2005 Nissan Armada

The contact owns a 2005 Nissan Armada. While driving various speeds, the brake warning indicator illuminated on the instrument panel. While depressing the brake pedal, an abnormal noise was detected. The contact coasted the vehicle to the side of the road, turned off the engine, waited a few minutes, restarted the vehicle, and the brake warning indicator was no longer illuminated. The contact resumed driving. The vehicle was taken to drexel Nissan (5018 township line rd, philadelphia, PA 19026, phone number: (610) 449-2800) where it was diagnosed that the brakes failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 106,000.

While traveling down the road, the brakelight comes on. When pressing the brake pedal there is not the same amount of braking pressure and the abs starts sounding off, creating a lot of noise. The brake feel becomes overly grabby and inconsistant. This has happend at least a dozen times to me personally as well as my wife. When the vehicle is shut off and then turned back on it seems to reset and work as normal, until it does it again. Please help! this had recently happened 4 times in the last 1 week. This has occured 2 years ago. I went to teh dealer. They reprogramed soemthing and has been good for a while, but now it is back. I took vehicle in to service on July 9th 2012 is part of a TSB to have the computer flashed or updated. Did not solve problem, it happened again today. This is becoming a serious and life threatning issue with brake failure on this Nissan Armada.

On three different occasions starting July 2011 and ending March 2015, the brakes failed after vdc/abs/slip warning lights were illuminated on a 2005 Nissan Armada. On one of the occasions, while attempting to stop, the brake pedal was depressed to the floor with little resistance. The vehicle failed to stop causing it to go through a busy intersection and just missed being struck by a tractor trailer. Spent over $2000. 00 in repairs and the problems persist. I no longer feel save in driving the vehicle and finally sold it at a lost.

Brakes on 2005 Armada went out and started to grind and stick, could not duplicate after re starting vehicle. This happens intermittingly and icannot get it to duplicate on cue. I have had problems with the brakes on this vechicle since the day it was driven off of the dealers lot. This is very unsafe never knowing when brakes will fail and I have to find a place to stop to shut the engine off to reset the vechicle. Listen Nissan someone is going to get hurt or killed because you are not fixing this problem!.

2005 Nissan Armada- our problem seems to be the same as countless others with no answer in sight. We will apply the brakes when we are at a slower speed (<30mph) and the brakes will fail. They pulsate, grind, and push in a spongey feel all the way to the floor with very minimal braking results. My wife drives this car with our 3 year old daughter so you can imagine our concern. We are planning to sell the car and get something else, but would like to have the brakes fixed first. But from what I see, Nissan is going to do nothing to help and the government must be turning a blind eye to an issue that is obviously a serious safety risk for not just owners of these Armadas, but for other drivers and pedestrians walking the streets as well.

This is pertaining to a 2005 Nissan Armada that we purchased brand new. Soon after purchase, the brakes began chattering and we took it to dealer. They fixed the brakes based on recommended upgrade per Nissan. A couple of month later, the car had a brake failure that was remedied by turning off engine and restarting. There were no problems since until two days ago when the brakes failed again. Nissan has been contacted and we are expecting a call back from a regional expert as to how to get brakes fixed. We received call from Nissan dealer that said that they do not know about this problem with other Nissan Armada's and that we would have to pay to get it looked at. This car only has 13,500 miles on it. We are very concerned about the safety since this is a completely random brake failure occurrence and is remedied by restarting car and is difficult to duplicate. The symptoms include very loud sound in engine bay followed by brake pedal sinking to floor and no brakes activating.

I have a 2005 Nissan Armada and the brakes have been giving me problems since I bought the SUV. Initially it was only warped rotors and excessive brake pad wear, but now the brakes have nearly failed on me three times. When I applied the brakes, it appears that the anti-lock brakes kick in, the brake pedal depresses further, and a loud groaning noise can be heard emanating from the brakes. This problem has occurred three times in the rain under very moderate braking condition (parking lot conditions) and when the parking brake has been used due to parking on a hill. When the event occurs the parking light , the slip, and vdc lights comes on.

We have had several incidents with the Nissan Armada since owning the vehicle new. Basically, the brakes fail on the car and it becomes very difficult to stop the vehicle. It becomes unsafe to drive. It is a known problem with the Armada and titan and Nissan continues to deny the problem. My wife nearly had 2 accidents during the incidents. The dealer states turning the car on and off resets it but there is no way to determine when it can happen again. It is extremely dangerous and should be addressed with a recall by Nissan.

My 2005 Nissan Armada have brake problems the vehicle at no particular time the brakes will fail having a spring clonk noise several times coming from the front brakes when this problem happens the vehicle will not stop the brake pedal will travel all the way down with no braking power to the wheels. This problem has happen to me many times over the years,I have taking the vehicle to numerous times to Nissan dealers. Unfortunately dealer can replicate this problem telling me that there is nothing wrong with the brakes. Now my warranty is over and there is way that the dealer will cover with these expenses. I have told the dealers that this is a very serious problem that sombody could die if there is no brakes that Nissan should recall the brakes,so far Nissan has not done anything to fix this issue.
