2009 Nissan Sentra

My brake line broke in three pieces while I was driving on the highway visiting my son I almost lost my life the brakes did not work all of the fluid came out thank God I didn’t die there was no sign on the dashboard also my brakes even when I change the pads the rotors and calipers they always make noise. I change brake pads every year and that’s not right I don’t think so. I always buy the best quality even when purchased fluids always buy CVT oil and I get it from the Nissan dealership.

I was driving on the interstate to go and visit my granddaughter from PA to New York when all of a sudden I press on the break pedal and the brakes stopped working there was no warning sign on the dashboard I was alone in the car and afraid I started to slow down there was a lot of traffic trucks and I pulled over on the side slowly and use the emergency break and thank God I’m alive today to tell you my ordeal thank God I didn’t get hurt and no one got hurt and the best part I got to see my granddaughter 9 hours later. Basically I was informed that my brake line was broke in three pieces I cannot believe it just be careful always check your brake line thank you stay safe out there!!

BRAKES MAKE LOUD SQUEALING AND GRINDING NOISE STARTING AS LITTLE AS 8 TO 10 THOUSAND MILES EVEN WHEN PADS AND ROTORS ARE FINE. THE STEERING COLUMN POPS AND JOLTS SLIGHTLY WHEN TURNING STARTING AT 27 THOUSAND MILES. THE CAR MAKES A CLUNKING NOISE WHEN TAKING MODERATE TO HARD RIGHT OR LEFT TURNS AT ANY SPEED. ONE TIRE SENSOR HAS ALREADY GONE BAD AT 20 THOUSAND MILES. *TR

ANY TIME YOU STEP ON THE BRAKES THEY HAVE A VERY LOUD SQUEAL WHEN BACKING UP. (BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING LOT). HAVE TO PUMP BRAKES WHILE BACKING UP TO GET SQUEAL TO STOP. HAS DONE THIS SINCE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN AUGUST 2009 TO DATE. HAVE HAD SEVERAL DIFFERENT MECHANICS, INCLUDING A NISSAN DEALER, LOOK AT THE BRAKES AT LEAST 10+ TIMES AND THEY FOUND NO ISSUES. ALSO WHEN YOU STEP ON BRAKES WHILE DRIVING TO COME TO A STOP THERE IS A LOUD SCRAPING NOISE COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT. AGAIN NOTHING FOUND BY NISSAN DEALER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN SENTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, SHE ATTEMPTED TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED A GRINDING AND KNOCKING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 61,000. *TR
