I PURCHASED MY 2017 NISSAN VERSA IN JULY OF 2017, WITH 10 MILES ON IT AND THAT WAS THE 10 MILES THAT I PUT ON IT DURING THE TEST DRIVE. MARCH OF 2019 MY BRAKES START TO MAKE THIS HIGH PITCH SOUND WHEN I BREAK. MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE 28,000 MILES ON IT YET. TOOK IT TO MIDAS (BECAUSE BRAKES ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY) AND THEY TOLD ME MY FRONT BREAK PADS WERE THIN, SO HAD THOSE REPLACED. THREE DAYS LATER THE SOUND IS BACK. SO MIDAS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM THEY JUST TOOK ME FOR $200.00. MY CAR IS STILL MAKING THE HIGH PITCH SOUND WHEN BREAKING.
I'VE HAD TO FIX MY BRAKES 3 TIMES AND IT'S ONLY BEEN A YEAR, TO TO MENTION I'M STILL HEARING A SCRATCHING SOUNDS WHEN I BRAKE. SO THERE'S OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING WRONG WITH SOMETHING ELSE AND I SHOULDN'T BE COMING OUT OF POCKET THIS MUCH FOR BRAKES.
2017 NISSAN VERSA SEDAN FWD. BRAKES ARE GOING TO FLOOR WHEN PEDAL IS PRESSED. IT SLOWLY FLOATS TO THE FLOOR BUT IS NOT A REPRODUCIBLE ACT EVERY TIME. SEEMS THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER COULD HAVE A POROUS SIDE WALL? WILL TAKE TO DEALER TO EVALUATE AND POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT ON WARRANTY SINCE 4000 MILES ON CAR.
