On sunday, sept 22 2019 at around 1:40pm we were headed home from an vacation at a cabin rental property in sevierville, tn. not even quarter mile from our cabin on a straight and down hill road all of a sudden the brakes stopped functioning. i applied brakes multiple times but the car didn't stop and in order to avoid a small pond on the right hand side and the car in front i had to divert my car on the shoulder of the road. as i hit shoulder of the road the front passenger wheel busted and the car eventually stopped further at the up hill. i don't know if the brakes failed and/or the abs and/or the onboard computer malfunctioned. i did see abs and vdc lights sign coming on the dashboard for at least 2 hours before disappearing on its own. also since then the tire pressure sign has never gone off. the tire pressure signs blinks for a little while every time start the car and then gets steady. this seems to be an safety concern to me as i still can't understand how would the car do nothing even after applying the brakes so many times. with an 2011 model and only 56000 miles on it i would never expect something like this to happen. so scared to drive the car now as we have an two year old who was in the car at the time of the incident & my wife got an minor injury to her left elbow. i reported the incident to nissan by calling 800-647-7261 on sept 24 2019 and haven't heard anything back from them since than.
I had the same problems when it was only 20k miles { 2 years with warranty}. they didn't fix the problem and i was not happy. on 3rd year (before 3 years or 36 months expiration date), i sent it to nissan dealership to inspect and they could not find any issue (no action or anything been fixed). it keep happening and i had to send it back again to recheck when it was 50k. and now it's 80k miles and the car is not safe to drive. i keep calling nissan dealership and asking for advices. they can not help me or fix it. i was almost got hit few times when i drove this nissan
