I was pulling out of parking lot at low speed and the brake pedal fell to the floor and I heard a grinding/clicking noise. The truck was almost unable to stop before oncoming traffic. I pulled back into the parking lot and inspected the brake assemblies and made sure there was fluid in the master cylinder reservoir. I cycled the ignition system a few times and started back up. The problem went away for the time being.
I had total brake failure on my truck. The pedal goes completely to the floor intermittently during driving. Dealer reports they cannot find any problems even after showing them that the pedal does go to the floor. I believe it is a faulty master cylinder or brake booster, and can cause injury or death if it happens on the freeway or at any significant speed. I believe there should be a tech bulletin and a recall notice sent out ASAP, and the repairs to be made under warranty by Nissan.
My girlfriend owns a 2004 Nissan Titan. About a year ago the braking system started failing, so I purchased new brakes and no change. The problem continued until I talked to a mechanic and he told me to try the master cylinder. Purchased a new one, no change. Nissan claims there is no problems but when we press the brake pedal it doesn't want to stop. We can pump them a couple of times then it'll start to stop. Nissan won't even take a look at it and the only reply we get from them is "it needs new brakes, or the brake pads are on backwards. " we where browsing on the internet and say an article where there was a lemon law and the braking system but Nissan still claims there is no problems with them.
Had to jam on brakes for a stop and pedal hit the floor even as truck stopped. I then released to move up a few feet and couldn't stop since I had no brake pedal pressure. Took 2-3 more full release and pumps to get back pressure. Recurring problem. Dealer said they could not duplicate the problem and saw no reason for it.
I have a 2004 Nissan truck VIN # 1n6aa06b94n505387 brake pedal goes to the floor the dealership has put 2 master cylinders on it but has not fixed the problem they tell me this is normal. I have a 16 year old son who is learning to drive. This problem comes and goes but it did it to him and scared him because he thought he had no brakes. The brakes are real spongy and go all the way to the floor if pressed firmly. In a hard braking situation such as on a steep hill at low speeds the brakes goes to the floor. This has been going 2 years.
