Failure of the braking system caused brake pedal to drop half way to the floor (approximately level with gas pedal) and inability to slow or stop the vehicle. None of multiple attempts to apply the service brakes resulted in any braking effect and engine surge was detected in at least one braking attempt. Driver resorted to emergency brake, but too late to avoid collision in intersection, two vehicles destroyed, four people where injured.

Dealer is denying responsibility for the problems I am having. I brought the truck 4 times for abs, 3 for a/c not working & engine light remains on. I just finished arbitration and bbb auto line decided that abs is not a safety issue despite the fact that the Nissan manual shows the importance of it in braking. I think the arbitrator is not fair and influence directly by the dealership. ***dimssii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis***770777.

Being a former mechanic and owning a 1995 Nissan previously I am appalled at the performance of the braking system. Numerous times when braking I can feel the pedal pulsate and the system only had minimal braking force although I applied extreme pressure to the pedal. I am certain there is a design flaw,for I would never had this accident in my 1995 Nissan pick-up and I'm certain someone is going to lose their life.

While driving at a low speed and when vehicle is cold upon stepping on brake pedal could experience extended stopping distance.
