Brake Master Cylinder problems of the 2013 Nissan Versa

Brake pedal goes to the floor occasionally while applying the brakes to come to a stop. Had Nissan perform a brake system flush and still have the problem. They asked about changing out the master cylinder and the way that they asked made me believe that they might know of a problem with this year and make of car. I checked up to see if there was a recall and noticed an investigation is in progress for this problem. This problem happens in street traffic or highway when trying to slow or stop the vehicle and is intermittent in nature and still occurs after the brake flush to remove any air in the system.

While operating my vehicle on a highway, at approximately 75mph, traffic slowed and I lightly depressed my brake pedal to slow my vehicle in response and no braking was detected. I pressed the pedal further to no avail. The brake pedal had to be pressed all the way to the floor before the brakes finally engaged. Thankfully, I was traveling at a safe distance behind the vehicle in front of me. Nevertheless, the experience was unsettling. Normal brake operation resumed for a short time. Within 25 miles of the last occurrence, I once again experienced the excessive brake pedal travel, followed by normal brake operation. I cautiously made my way to a Nissan dealership the next morning. The car was inspected, and the dealership confirmed the cause of the problem to be a leak in the master cylinder. Despite the 115000 miles on my vehicle, I find it quite terrifying that the failure of a component could put my occupant and I in such a perilous situation without any warning whatsoever. I have contacted the manufacture, and am awaiting further assistance/remedy.

I have been having my car run very rough after these 2 reparis on my brakes. One for the abs and the other for my master cylinder. I am stil experiencing brake problems. When I stop the cars brakes will hault suddenly or change sensitivity I have brought my car to lokey Nissan and auto nation Nissan and have been refused service.
