2004 Nissan Titan

WHEN TRYING TO STOP, AT ANY SPEED, THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND THERE IS A VIBRATION FROM UNDER THE HOOD; CAN ALSO SMELL BRAKE FLUID IN THE CAB. TOOK THE TRUCK IN ONCE FOR THE VIBRATION RECALL AND THEY REPLACED THE CALIPERS, ROTORS AND PADS. THEN STARTED HAVING THE ABOVE PROBLEM AGAIN AND TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD THAT THE COMPUTER NEEDED REPROGRAMMED AND SOME SWITCHES ON THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED REPLACING ($550). HAVE HAD IT BACK 1 MONTH NOW AND DOING IT AGAIN. LUCKILY THIS TIME WAS CLOSE TO DEALERSHIP AND TOOK IT IN AND NOW THEY ARE SAYING I NEED A NEW POWER BRAKE BOOSTER ($700). HAVE OWNED 5 OTHER NISSAN VEHICLES AND NEVER HAD THIS MUCH OF A PROBLEM, AND WONDER DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED FOR THESE PROBLEMS THAT WE ARE HAVING WITH THE BRAKES. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN TITAN LE EXTEND CAB WITH OFF ROAD PACKAGE AND TOWING PACKAGE. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKES LOOKED AT ABOUT EVERY 20K MILES. I CURRENTLY HAVE 67K ON IT, AND I HAD IT IN THE SHOP FOR 3 DAY WHILE WAITING ON NISSAN CORP TO DECIDE IF THEY WOULD STILL COVER THE BRAKE DEFECT. THE DEALER TOLD US THEY COULD ONLY TURN THE ROTORS AND REPLACE THE PADS, WHICH THEY DID 2X'S. NOW IT NEEDS NEW ROTORS AND PADS, AND SUDDENLY THE RECALL IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT, SO I WILL HAVE TO PAY OVER $500 TO GET THIS DONE. I REFUSE, AND I AM STILL WAITING ON NISSAN CORP TO CALL ME. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN, THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE. *TR
