Recently reported SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC problems on 2011 Nissan LEAF

I have definitely noticed the braking assist displaying a mind of its own, though never on the freeway as yet. sometimes i just tap the pedal and the brakes apply much more than i was pushing. other times the brakes apply normally, but do not release immediately after releasing the pedal. nissan...something is up here. *tr

I was accelerating after getting on the freeway heading north and slightly uphill i might have been peaking at 55mph when the truck in front of me suddenly slammed his brakes on. i did the same and i hear my tires screeching , i presumed that they were locking. however i did maintain my direction and didn't seem to loose control. when i realized i would not rear-end the truck i left my foot off the brake. i was alarmed when my tires were still locked and remained locked for what i thought was a very long half second. by that time i think i was under 20 mph on a freeway and i was darn lucky nobody was rear-ending me! i think this is a defect in the braking response. *tr
