I HAVE A 2004 QX56 AND LIKE MANY OF YOU, I MA HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES. THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKE THEIR IS A GRINDING SOUND AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT AND YOU COULDN'T TELL THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY ROTORS AND THEY "THINK" THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND MADE TO FIX THIS ISSUE.! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 INFINITI QX56. WHILE ENGAGING THE BRAKES, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND AN UNKNOWN NOISE EMITTED FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO FIND A FAILURE. THE BRAKES AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

WE CURRENTLY OWN A 2004 INFINITI QX56. WE HAVE RECEIVED ERROR CODE B1177 WHICH IS FOR THE PRETENSIONER IN SEATBELTS. ADDITIONALLY, THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING. WE UNDERSTAND FROM THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON DUE TO THE BATTERY BEING REPLACED AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME BAG ON SHORTLY THEREAFTER AND WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHO SCANNED THE CODE. HE ADVISED US OF THE ERROR CODE AND WHAT IT WAS ASSOCIATED WITH. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, IT APPEARS THAT AN EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF OWNERS OF THE INFINITI QX56 AS WELL AS THE NISSAN ARMADA (SISTER VEHICLE) HAVE THIS EXACT ISSUE. WE ARE UNSURE AS TO WHETHER THE AIRBAGS WILL FAIL IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OR IF THE SAFETY BELTS WILL ALSO NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE HAS A 10 YEAR SEATBELT WARRANTY BUT THE DEALERS ARE STATING THAT THIS ITEM IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUS NEGLECT AND DEFECT ON THE MANUFACTURER'S PART AND PUTS THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES AT SERIOUS RISK. WE ARE A FAMILY OF 5 WITH 3 SMALL CHILDREN. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE OR TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY RELATED ISSUE. PLEASE ADVISE. *TR

WHILE I'M DRIVING, THE BRAKE LIGHT ON MY CLUSTER WOULD COME ON AND IF I TRY TO BRAKE, THE PEDAL WOULD JUST GO TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE WOULD FEEL AS IF ABS IS KICKING IN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I'VE RAN THROUGH MULTIPLE RED LIGHTS AND PEDESTRIAN CROSSWALKS DUE TO THE BRAKES NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THANK GOD I HAVEN'T HURT ANYONE OR MYSELF DUE TO THIS ON GOING PROBLEM WITH THE DELTA SENSOR. RESEARCHED ONLINE AND READ TONS OF STORIES OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE WHICH APPARENTLY COST $1000 USD TO FIX!! PLEASE MAKE INFINITI RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FIX OR SOMEONE WILL GET HURT OR EVEN WORSE, DEATHS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AND STARTING TO APPLY THE BRAKES THERE CAN BE HEARD A GRINDING SOUND, BRAKE LIGHT DISPLAYS ON THE DASH AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR.THIS IS VERY UNSAFE TO ME AND THE PUBLIC BECAUSE ONCE I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME AND RESTART THE VEHICLE IT FUNCTIONS LIKE NOTHING WAS EVER WRONG. I DROVE AROUND THE BLOCK WITH NO PROBLEM STOPPING WHICH LASTED ABOUT 2 WEEKS BEFORE IT ALL STARTED AGAIN, THIS TIME WITH MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE.THERE ARE NO LEAKS OR SQUEAKING FROM USING MY BRAKES; SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. *TR

STEPPED ON BRAKES AND PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO FLOORBOARD WITH OUT STOPPING THE SUV. SUV FINALLY STOPPED ON SPEED BUMP A FEW FEET AWAY. LOOKED IN THE INTERNET, THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE WITH SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS ALSO A COUPLE SUING NISSAN FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM. I THINK NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. THE PROBLEM I UNDERSTAND IS IN THE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER. IT SHOULD HAVE BEING RECALL. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY TO ANOTHER STATE, I ATTEMPTED TO STOP MY VEHICLE, AN 2004 INFINITI QX56, AS TRAFFIC SLOWED AND STOPPED. I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND HEARD A CLICKING SOUND AND THE BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP COMPLETELY. THE PEDAL BEGAN TO GO TO THE FLOOR THEN BEGAN TO FEEL STIFF. I HAD TO SWERVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING SOMEONE ELSE'S VEHICLE. ONCE I COMPLETELY STOPPED, I GOT OUT AND INSPECTED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL, AND THE BRAKES AND BOTH SEEMED TO BE FINE. I GOT BACK IN THE VEHICLE AND AFTER I TURNED THE IGNITION ON, THE BRAKE INDICATOR HAD WENT OFF AND THE PEDAL SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE. I TRAVELED ON TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT ANY OTHER ISSUES. ONCE AT MY DESTINATION, I HAD THE BRAKES INSPECTED AND THE REPAIR SHOP SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES SINCE THIS INCIDENT, AND EACH TIME WHEN TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP, NOTHING CAN BE FOUND WRONG WITH MY BRAKES. *TR
