Started vehicle up in the morning and was backing out of my driveway. When I reached the street to come to a stop and put my car into drive, my brakes did not respond and I almost hit a pillar outside of my driveway. I had to immediately place my car into drive and immediately I to park to avoid a collision. My brake pedal sank to the bottom and the brake light on the dashboard lit up. Brakes failed and I'm having vehicle towed to my Nissan dealer.
