Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Nissan Murano

My 2099 Nissan Murano has 67,000 miles, 2 days ago while traveling home from a local store in the rain trying to stop at a stop sign the brake pedal went completely to the floor and brakes did not work. The car went into the intersection, thankfully no other cars were coming. Brake pedal continues to go to the floor, car doesnot stops until standing on the pedal pushing it completely to the floor. Took it to my mechanic, he drained the brake lines to get rid of any air and put in new brake fluid. Did not help. He then told me to look at the complaints and open investigation about the many 2009 Murano having this same problem and all the money owners have spent to try to fix the problem with no good results. I also called the Nissan dealer and they said they never heard of any problems with the 2009 Murano. I am thankful my mechanic did his homework. But now I am stuck with a $275. 00 a month payment for a car that is not safe to drive and nobody, even the Nissan dealers admit that there is a true problem or defect and nobody knows how to fix it. Without you admitting there is a defect and requiring a recall is forcing people to continue to drive these cars with faulty brakes. I just hope it does not take a death or two for this defect to be recalled because with all the documented issues being basically the same and your investigation being open for over a year I am sure many people will be opening law suits if death or injury occur. This is a serious situation and these car owners deserve more then what they are receiving from you and Nissan. Time to step up and fix this before anybody else gets hurt or any deaths occur. Your note says to retain any documentation for 5 years, well in 5 years these cars will be14 years old and seeing that this problem seems to start around 65,000 miles, this needs fix now!.

While driving the brake pedal will randomly lose pressure and go all the way down to the firewall when trying to slow down or stop which results in the vehicle failing to stop. It appears to only be happening at speeds of 45 mph or less. This has been happening for about 30-45 days now are is becoming more frequent now occurring at least once every 3-4 days. When this 1st started I was advised that it may be due to low brake pads and under spec rotors so we replaced the rotors and pads on all 4 wheels and bleed the brakes to ensure there was no air trapped in the lines however this did not fix the issue. There is no loss of brake fluid and all of the brake lines are in great shape. We are the 2nd owners of the vehicle and purchased it with about 30k miles on it in 2012 and it now has 70k miles on it. This is my wife's car and drives my 2 young children around in it and we no longer feel safe using it as yesterday she could not stop the car trying to turn into the ymca parking lot and she couldn't stop! luckily there was no-one in front of her as she would have slammed into them. I don't feel comfortable selling or trading the car since this is apparently an issue that multiple other people are having issues with that dealers can't figure out and I don't feel comfortable passing this dangerous situation on to someone else.

Vehicle has developed a soft brake pedal that requires the pedal be depressed completely to the floor to initiate braking. Brake pads, brake fluid, and brake lines have been checked with no apparent issues. Numerous owners of this vehicle make/model are reporting this same issue with no apparent resolution. I'm very concerned about the safety issue this problem presents while operating this vehicle. Nissan needs to step in and identify the root cause and corrective action to prevent unnecessary injuries or loss of life.
