While driving on the highway on our way to pick up daughter who lives 1. 5 hours away my 2005 Nissan Murano would not stop when I stepped on the brake pedal. I had to pull the car over and let it stop to put it in park. I then called a tow truck and had the vehicle towed to the mechanic. I had to get rear brake pads and rear brake rotors as well as the rear passenger side rear caliper. This all cost me $1,700 as well as a weekend with my grandchild! there had not been any warning signs that I needed new brakes, I had only purchased this vehicle in November 2018. I paid 5,500 dollars for the vehicle and thus far have had to put almost 4,000 dollars into repairs and tow trucks! now I went out to my car and as I started to back out of my driveway as I stepped on the brake pedal it is very squishy and now is going to the floor!. I got out of my vehicle and my driveway is covered in brake fluid!!! my master cylinder is obviously now needing to be replaced! I put in a bottle of brake fluid hoping to drive it to the shop and I can see it dripping out of my vehicle already without even stepping on the brakes! I am going to have to again call a flat bed tow truck to have the vehicle taken to the garage to be repaired. I am not sure yet but I am guesstimating this will cost me another 1200 dollars. Not to mention I was told that I need to replace the racknpinion????? 2005 Nissan Murano seems to be the worst decision I have ever made in my life, and I can only describe it as a death trap. Oh one last thing, the day I bought the vehicle I was almost rear ended several times on the way home. I got home and found out that I had absolutely no back lights that worked. Not brake lights, blinkers, nothing. Death trap.
