2004 NISSAN TITAN — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP

MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN HAS UNDER 6,000 MILES ON IT WHEN IT, LIKE MANY OTHERS, STARTED EXPERIENCED BRAKE JUDDER/FAILURE, ESPECIALLY WHEN BRAKING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS. REPORTED TO THE DEALER, CONFIRMED JUDDER, AND WAS ADDED TO NISSAN'S LIST FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE (1 SET/2 WEEKS NATION-WIDE, I'M TOLD). RETURNING HOME FROM WORK ON A WET HIGHWAY, UNDER MODERATE BRAKING FOR AN ACCIDENT AHEAD, THE BRAKES LOCKED, SENDING THE TITAN SIDEWAYS INTO A BARRIER. I'VE DRIVEN ACCIDENT-FREE FOR NEARLY 20 YEARS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED TOTAL LOSS OF CONTROL AS IN THE TITAN...IT SIMPLY WOULD NOT STOP AND I WAS TRAVELLING WELL UNDER THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT IN MODERATE TRAFFIC. I HAVE NO DOUBT HAD THE DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKES AT THE FIRST COMPLAINT OR NISSAN INSTALLED ADEQUATE FRONT BRAKES FROM THE FACTORY, THE ACCIDENT WOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.*AK
