2005 Nissan Armada Complaint Log

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2005. THE 4WD HAS NEVER PERFORMED CORRECTLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK. OF COURSE, NOW THE VEHICLE IS WAY OUT OF WARRANTY, AND NISSAN WILL NOT PAY FOR ANY REPAIRS DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT HASN'T WORKED RIGHT FROM THE MOMENT I BOUGHT IT. I'VE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO USE THE 4WD SYSTEM FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME. I'VE SEEN OTHER POSTS ON SEVERAL OTHER FORUMS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. FOR NOW, I'VE TAKEN THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL OUT OF MY VEHICLE, AND A FRIEND OF MINE IS GOING TO SEE IF THERE'S A FIX FOR IT. I THINK IT'S OBVIOUS THAT THE ARMADA AND TITAN HAVE DESIGN FLAWS CONCERNING THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. I KEEP HEARING ABOUT LEAKING AND BLOWN SEALS. I LIKE THE CAR, BUT I PAID FOR A 4WD VEHICLE AND I THINK I SHOULD HAVE ONE. IS THERE ANY ACTION I CAN TAKE? AGAINST NISSAN MAYBE? MAYBE THEY COULD PAY ME TO BE OK WITH THEIR FAULTY VEHICLE? I'VE OWNED SEVERAL NISSANS BEFORE AND HAD NO PROBLEMS, BUT I'M THINKING THAT I'LL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE BECAUSE OF THIS. IF THERE'S A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST NISSAN FOR THIS, SIGN ME UP. OR MAYBE WE COULD FILE ONE. *TR

THE BRAKES ON MY 2005 ARMADA WARPED AT ABOUT 5,000 MILES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THEY HAVE AN UPGRADE KIT TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE STOCK BRAKES ARE TOO SMALL FOR THE VEHICLE. WHEN I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE, I WAS INFORMED THAT THEY ONLY TURNED THE ROTORS BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS AND NOW CANNOT GIVE ME THE UPGRADE BECAUSE THERE IS NO VISIBLE PROBLEM AND NISSAN WILL NOT AUTHORIZE THE WORK. I WAS NEVER ASKED IF I WANTED THE ROTORS TURNED. IT APPEARS THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO AVOID A RECALL BY MAKING IT LOOK LIKE THEY ARE FIXING THE PROBLEM, BUT THEN ONLY DOING WHAT COSTS THEM THE LEAST. *NM

I OWN A NISSAN ARMADA SUV (MODEL LE 5.6 V8). THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN 3/2005 AND NOW HAS SOME 3000 MILES. WE EXPERIENCED STRONG VIBRATION OF THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE BRAKING AND TOOK THE CAR TO THE SERVICE DEPT. AT THE RENO (NV) DEALERSHIP. YESTERDAY, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THAT NISSAN HAS A PROBLEM WITH ALL ARMADA & TITAN MODELS OF 2004/2005 AND THE PROBLEM IS CAUSING ALL BRAKES TO VIBRATE AS THE BRAKE DISCS TOUCH THE BRAKE PADS. THIS IS APPARENTLY SOMETHING THAT NISSAN KNOWS FOR A WHILE BECAUSE ALL THE PARTS ARE ON "BACK ORDER" AND WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR A FEW MONTHS AND INVOLVES > 100,000 VEHICLES. THE DEALER TOLD US THAT THE PROBLEM MAY COME BACK IN A FEW MONTHS / THOUSANDS OF MILES AND FOR THE MEANTIME THE "BRAKES WERE WARPED" WHICH IS A TEMPORARY FIX. WE ARE INTERESTED TO INVESTIGATE WHY (A) NISSAN HAS NOT DECLARED A FORMAL RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND MAKE CUSTOMERS AWARE THAT A PROBLEM EXISTS AND (B) TO FIND OUT IF THE PROBLEM IS HAZARDOUS TO LIFE AND IF OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *NM

THERE ARE MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE NISSAN ARMADA 2005 VEHICLE. 1ST, THE BRAKES HAVE GONE OUT NUMEROUS TIMES AND HAVE HAD TO BE REPLACED. 2ND, NUMEROUS RATTLES THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE HAVE GONE UNFIXED BY NISSAN SERVICE - SOME RATTLES ARE SERIOUS ENOUGH TO WHERE THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR OPENS A INCH OR SO OVER A LARGE BUMP IN THE ROAD (SOMETHING COULD BE WRONG WITH THE LATCHING MECHANISM OR FORM FIT BETWEEN THE DOOR AND BODY). THE REAR CARGO DOOR HAS RATTLE AND VIBRATION ISSUES. 3RD) A SERIOUS VISIBILITY ISSUE THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN IGNORED BY NISSAN SERVICE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. THERE IS A SERIOUS VISIUAL PROBLEM THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD THAT CAUSES DOUBLE VISION (SOME SORT OF OPTICAL ISSUE WITH CARLEX GLASS) - NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR DUE TO COMPARISON WITH OTHER ARMADAS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

BOUGHT NISSAN ARMADA JANUARY 2005. BY MARCH OF 2005 JUST A LITTLE OVER 2000 MILES THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING WHEN BRAKING. BROUGHT CAR BACK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD ROTORS TOO SMALL FOR THE CAR. ROTORS REPLACED. STEERING STARTED SHAKING AGAIN EARLY JUNE. CAR BROUGHT BACK AGAIN. TOLD IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE PERMENENT "FIX" WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY THE END OF JUNE. TOLD AT THE END OF JUNE THE "FIX" WOULD BE AVAILABLE BUY MID JULY. NOW MID JULY WITH NO "FIX" AVAILABLE. STEERING WHEEL SHAKES SO BADLY IT IS DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. CAR WILL BE BROUGHT IN FOR THE 3RD TIME ON 7/19/05 FOR THIRD VISIT AND 2ND SET OF ROTORS. STILL NO PERMENENT "FIX" AVAILABLE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE CONTACT HEARD A GRINDING NOISE FOLLOWED BY REDUCED BRAKING ABILITY. ALSO, WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THE ELECTRICAL PARKING BRAKE SPONTANEOUSLY ENGAGED ITSELF AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE HALT. THE DEALER STATED THAT SHE WOULD HAVE TO PAY $600 TO REPAIR THE PARKING BRAKE. CURRENTLY, THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 41,000. UPDATED 05/13/09 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM 8 TIMES. UPDATED 05/13/09.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD. THIS FAILURE HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES AND WAS SERVICED AT AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON EACH OCCASION. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR HAD FAILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 75,576.

DT: THE CONSUMER STATES WHEN SHE BRAKES THE CAR PULLS AND VIOLENTLY SHAKES. THE STEERING WHEEL FELT VERY LOSE. DEALER WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. SHE BROUGHT IT TO DEALER ON 6-27-05, WHO ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM THEY WERE HAVING WITH THE NISSANS AND RECOMMEND A REPAIR KIT TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD CONSUMER THEY COULD NOT GET TO HER CAR UNTIL 6-27-05 BECAUSE THEY WERE BUSY WITH FIXING ALL OF THE BRAKE PROBLEMS THEY WERE HAVING WITH THE NISSANS. SHE ASKED FOR A LOANER V AND THEY REFUSED TO GIVE HER ONE. *AK

PURCHASED 2005 ARMADA IN MAY BY JUNE VEHICLE WENT INTO SERVICE BECAUSE A NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE REAR SIDE. 2 ATTEMPTS TO FIX AND PART WAS REPLACED. AUGUST 2005 TAKEN TO DEALER AGAIN BECAUSE OF SHAKING WHILE BRAKING, AND FRONT ROTORS /PADS WERE REPLACED, AND REAR ROTORS RESURFACED. JANUARY 2006 VEHICLE TAKEN BACK TO DEALER BECAUSE THERE WAS A GRINDING. APPARENTLY THE PROBLEM WERE THE TIRES THAT NEEDED BALANCING AND ROTATING. ANOTHER PROBLEM WAS THE LIFTGATE, IT DID NOT WANT TO OPEN AND CLOSE AUTOMATICALLY. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 3 DAYS AND THEY STILL DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. AS ANOTHER CONSUMER MENTIONED THE STABILITY OF THIS VEHICLE WAS VERY POOR, I HAVE SWIRVED SHARPLY TO THE LEFT WHEN BRAKING AT 50 MPH OR MORE. ACCORDING TO THE NISSAN SERVICE THEY HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS. *AK

I AM LEASING A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA. CURRENTLY THERE ARE 3300 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND I ALREADY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 2 FOR BRAKE ISSUES. THERE IS A VERY A HARD BRAKE JUDDER ONCE BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED WITH THE TRUCK GOING OVER 20 MILES PER HOUR. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT 1900 MILES AND THEY SAID IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL AND THEY WILL REPAIR IT WHEN I TAKE THE TRUCK IN FOR MAINTENANCE AT 3500 MILES. NOW I TOOK IT IN FOR MAINTENANCE WHEN THE PROBLEM IS WORSE AND THEY ARE SAYING THEY HAVE NO PARTS TO FIX THE TRUCK SINCE NISSAN HAS NOT SEND THEM. SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN EXCELLENT AND TRIED TO HELP WITH ALL MY QUESTIONS BUT IT DOESN OT LOOK LIKE IT IS UP TO THEM ANYMORE. THE TRUCK IS ALMOST IN THE UN-DRIVABLE CONDITION.

CONSUMER STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. *TS ***NAR RECEIVED 9-29-05*** THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE WITHIN 3 MONTHS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ROTORS BUT THE PROBLEM RESURFACED. *NM

WHEN APPLYING BRAKES THERE IS VIBRATION IN STEERING. *TS ***NO ANSWER REQUIRED*** UPDATED 11/7/2005 - THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE WITHIN 3 MONTHS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ROTORS BUT THE PROBLEM RESURFACED. THE DEALER ALSO INSTALLED A NEW BRAKE KIT WITH BRAKE PADS PER SERVICE BULLETIN INFORMATION. THE CONSUMER SENT A LETTER TO THE MANUFACTURER REQUESTING IMMEDAITE RESTITUTION BEACUSE THE DEALER FAILED TO CONFORM TO A SAFETY DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE NUMBER OF REPAIR ATTEMPTS. THE CONSUMER RECEIVED A RESPONSE STATING THAT NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THE SAFETY DEFECT AND HAD RESPONDED BY EXTENDING THE WARRANTY ON THE COMPONENT AND BY HAVING BOSCH, CO. DEVELOP A REPLACEMENT PART. *NM

DT: CONSUMER STATED THAT THE BRAKING SYSTEM CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL TO VIBRATE AND PULL TO THE RIGHT. HE WAS TOLD BY SOMEONE WHO DID NOT WORK FOR NISSAN BUT FOR ENTERPRISE RENTAL CAR THAT THE ROTORS WERE NOT SUFFICIENT FOR THE SIZE AND WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALERSHIP, AND HE WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN WAS SENDING OUT THE REPAIR KITS AND WILL HAVE THE VEHICLES FIXED. CONSUMER WAS CONCERNED THAT THERE WASN'T A RECALL ,BUT NISSAN WAS FIXING THE PROBLEM. CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TWICE, AND WAS TOLD IT WILL BE A CONTINUING PROBLEM UNTIL THE KIT ARRIVED TO FIX THE PROBLEM PERMANENTLY. THE PROBLEM WAS BETTER WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN I TO DEALER, BUT THE SAME THING HAPPENED AFTER A WEEK.*AK *NM

BRAKES ON MY 2005 NISSAN ARMADA. WHEN BRAKING THE STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO JUDDER OR SHAKE. THE CAR IS ONLY TWO MONTHS OLD WITH 1,300 MILES. I NOW HEAR THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE THERE TO BE A RECALL ON THIS MATTER.

WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THE END OF 3/05. W/IN DAYS WE NOTICED A "SHIMMY" IN THE STEERING AND THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AT SPEEDS OF 50+. STEERING WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT AND WHEEL WOULD JERK TO SIDE WHEN ENCOUNTERING SLIGHT BUMPS IN THE ROAD. WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE CAR WOULD VIBRATE & SHUDDER AND WAS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL (AT ANY SPEED). IT TOOK MORE PRESSURE THAN USUAL TO GET CAR TO STOP. THE MOST FRIGHTENING PART WAS THAT THE CAR WAS ESPECIALLY HARD TO CONTROL IN RAINY CONDITIONS. WHEN DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF BETWEEN 25-35 MPH, IN A MODERATE RAINFALL, THE CAR HYDROPLANED ON 5 OCCASSIONS WITHIN A DISTANCE OF APPROX. 60 MILES. ALSO, THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WOULD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK, I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY TIRE PRESSURE CHECKED. IT WAS FINE AND THEY HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THE LIGHT APPEARING. I WAS OUT OF STATE AT THE TIME & THEY SUGGESTED I BRING IT INTO MY DEALERSHIP. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED, WHICH IS WHAT I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS. THEY BALANCED MY TIRES AND TOLD ME THIS WAS WHY MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS GOING ON. AFTER THE PROBLEM CONTINUED, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AND THAT NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM . I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY WERE WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO ARRIVE, BUT HAD NO IDEA WHEN THIS WOULD BE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA AND RECEIVED NO SATISFACTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND I AM FURIOUS THAT I CANNOT GET THE MANUFACTURER TO COMMIT TO A DATE THAT THEY WILL REPLACE THESE BRAKES. NISSAN N.A. REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME THAT IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE & MY DIFFICULTIES HANDLING THE VEHICLE IN ADVERSE CONDITIONS WAS "EXTERNAL". THE CAR IS HARD TO HANDLE IN THE BEST OF CONDITIONS. IT ONLY MAKES SENSE THAT THE MORE DIFFICULT THE DRIVING CONDITIONS, THE HARDER THIS VEHICLE WOULD BE TO CONTROL.

FRONT BRAKE ROTORS WARPED AT 5,771 MILES. ROTORS WERE RESURFACES AND PADS REPLACED, I WAS INFORMED THAT NISSAN HAS AN UPDATE BUT PARTS NOT AVAILABLE YET AS THERE ARE MORE VEHICLES NEEDING THE REPLACEMENT PART THAN PARTS AVAILABLE IN THE MARKET.

3/10/05 PURCHASED CAR NEW. 3/17/05 CAR IN SHOP FOR BRAKE AND STEERING VIBRATION. 4/11/05 ENTIRE FRONT CURTAIN AIRBAGS, HARNESS AND WIRING HAD TO BE REPLACED. CAR IN SHOP 8 DAYS. CAR HAS BEEN IN SHOP A TOTAL OF 12 TIME SINCE PURCHASE. MOSTLY FOR BRAKES, PULLING, VIBRATION, JUDDER, BROKEN PARTS. ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH SEAT STAINS THAT WILL NOT STAY OUT OF OUR FABULOUS NASA FABRIC! WILL BE TRYING TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT VEHICLE EITHER WITH DEALERSHIP OR ATTORNEY. YOU HAVE 12 COMPLAINTS AND MORE THAT ARE SIMILAR. WHY NO RECALL. THERE IS EVEN A NISSAN LEMON LAW WEBSITE. PLEASE HELP! *JB

EVERYDAY DRIVING ON GOOD ROADS AND BAD ROADS AND WHILE HITTING BUMPS OR ANY IMPERFECTION IN THE ROAD STEERING WHEEL MOVES SIDE TO SIDE. NOT THE WHOLE COLUMN JUST THE STEERING WHEEL. ONE TIME, WHILE HOLDING STEERING WHEEL NEAR BOTTOM WHEEL JILTED TO RIGHT AND CAUGHT MY HAND IN OPENING OF WHEEL TO WHERE I COULD NOT GAIN CONTROL RIGHT AWAY. THIS STEERING WHEEL SHAKE HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, EVEN ON THE HIGHWAY, WHERE VEHICLE DOES MOVE TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT DEPENDING ON WHICH WHEEL HITS THE BUMP OR HOLE IN THE ROAD. DEALER SAID THIS IS NORMAL IN THE STEERING. THE STEERING IS JUST VERY LOOSE AND SLOPPY, EVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WHERE IT IS SUPPOSE TO GET TIGHTER. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO DEALER ON 2/19/05 FOR THE PROBLEM, AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE STEERING, ONLY THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND REPLACED THOSE PARTS. THEY SAID THIS WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. BUT MY PROBLEM IS WITH THE STEERING , AND A REPAIR OF BRAKING SYSTEM WILL NOT SOLVE THE STEERING PROBLEM, THAT WILL JUST SOLVE THE SHAKING PROBLEM WHEN I STEPPING ON THE BRAKE,S NOT WHILE I'M DRIVING ALONG ROADS. THERE IS 2,600 MILES ON THE VEHICLE ,AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE OR COMFORTABLE. IT ALWAYS FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE HAS A SHOCK OR STABILIZER PROBLEM. I HOPE THIS CAN BE LOOKED INTO SERIOUSLY BEFORE SOME ONE LOOSES CONTROL AND HAS A MAJOR ACCIDENT WITH SERIOUS INJURY BEFORE THIS PROBLEM GETS RESOLVED. I AM WRITING THIS SO ALL 2005 ARMADA OWNERS WILL KNOW THERE ARE NOT ALONE OR NUTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. IT DOES EXIST REGARDLESS WHAT THE DEALERS SAY. THANK YOU.*AK

DT: THE CONSUMER STATED THAT ON MARCH 5, 2005 THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SEAT BELTS LOCKED WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE SEAT BELTS TIGHTENED LIKE THEY WERE CHOKING THE CONSUMER. THE MIDDLE ROW SEAT LOCKED, BUT DID NOT CATCH IN ORDER TO KEEP THE CONSUMER FROM GOING FORWARD. ALSO WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE SHOOK SO VIOLENTLY THAT ONE COULD NOT HANG ONTO THE WHEEL. THE CONSUMER HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR THE BRAKES, AND THE DEALER SAID THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW BRAKE SYSTEM. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERS ON OCTOBER 5, 2005 BECAUSE THE FUEL PUMP CRACKED. THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THE ENGINE BLEW OUT. THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. CURRENTLY THE VEHICLE HAD 12, 000 MILES ON IT. *AK UPDATED 11/29/2005 - *NM (12/05/05) THE CHILD SAFETY SEAT WAS REPLACED TWICE. THE REAR SECOND ROW SEAT SNAPPED AND PUSHED FORWARD WITH THE CHILD IN THE CAR SEAT. *SC

BRAKE SYSTEM UNDERSIZED FOR SIZE OF VEHICLE, "JUDDER" STARTED AT 2800 MILES AND NOW AT 3400 MILES IS MUCH WORSE. DEALER WANTED TO DO A TEMPORARY FIX AND I REFUSED PENDING PERMANENT FIX. LARGER CALIPERS, ROTORS AND PADS ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED.*AK

BRAKE SYSTEM SEEMS UNSAFE. THE ROTORS ARE MAKING SOME SERIOUS NOISES, AND THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 5,000 MILES ON IT. VEHICLE IS 2005 NISSAN ARMADA.*AK

PURCHASED A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA IN DECEMBER 2004. NOTICEABLE SHAKING IN STEERING WHEEL COLUMN WHEN BRAKING. THIS USUALLY OCCURS WHEN BRAKING FROM SPEEDS GREATER THAN 40 MPH. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH STEERING WHEEL SHAKING, WHICH THE SERVICE ADVISOR EXPLAINED, IS DUE TO ROTOR BECOMING HEATED AND WARPED. HE SAID THAT THEY HAVE A TEMPORARY FIX FOR THE PROBLEM - CHANGING BRAKE PADS, ROTORS, AND INSTALLING A BOLT SOMEHWERE, AND THAT NISSAN WAS WORKING ON A PERMANENT FIX. I WISH I NEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE BEFORE I DISHED OUT THE BIG BUCKS. HOPEFULLY, THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT POSE A DEADLY HAZARD IN THE NOT TO DISTANT FUTURE.*AK

DISK ROTORS AND BRAKES, HAD THEM REPLACES A FEW MONTH AFTER LEASED THE VEHICLE, TWO MONTH LATER THE CAR IS IN THE SAME SHAPE, WHEN BRAKING THE CAR AND THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS LIKE IT IS COMING OFF THE CAR, FEELS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE, DEALER DOES NOT HAVE BRAKE PADS OR ROTORS AND IS PUTTING EVERYONE WITH THE SAME COMPLAIN IN A WAITING LIST. WHAT IS OUT OPTIONS WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS IS HAPPENING TO ALL THE 2005 NISSAN ARMADA? *JB
