The brake light and slip indicator turn on and the brakes do not work. There is nothing in the manual that explains what this means other than potentially low brake fluid. We checked the brake fluid level and it was halfway, we filled it up and the issue did not go away even after driving it. When you turn the vehicle off and start it back up the brake light turns off leaving only the slip indicator on but no explanation as to what the issues are regarding both systems. After carefully testing the system we found that the brakes are in fact failing and the vehicle is not stopping. *tr

Very light brake pedal, pedal goes all the way to the floor before the truck starts to slow down. The brake and vdc lights come and the brakes skip and truck slides. Took to nissan dealership they said it was my brake booster and master cylinder causing the issue, i had items replaced and the problem is still there.

The motors on all 3 nissan vehicles have and keep going out. I owned a 2009 nissan altima, currently own a nissan titan 2006 and armada 2012. I've had to replace the titan back passenger motor 5x. Main window motor 1x. Altima front passenger once. Armada two passenger motors are giving out. This happens either parked or driving. Am i the only one having these issues?

Tl* the contact owned a 2012 nissan armada. While the vehicle was parked outside the contact's place of employment, an explosion was heard. The contact exited the building and noticed smoke coming from her vehicle. The contact opened the front driver's door and noticed flames under the steering column, console, and accelerator pedal. There were no injuries sustained. The fire department extinguished the fire. There was no police or fire report filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to a towing lot. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was contacted and informed the contact that an investigator would investigate the fire. The approximate failure mileage was 60,875.

At approximately 45-50 the car began to shudder on a state highway and stalled making it impossible to steer with normal effort . It would not start and was towed. Of note this is my 2nd armada my 2004 had the same problem. I can't imagine nissan does not know and has done nothing to fix it. Any thoughts ?
