We own a 2008 nissan frontier truck/ [redacted], 6cyl. The brakes are far too soft,and spongy, require far too much pedal travel to be safe or effective, or to be effectively used by anyone!! All frontier models have this same problem. They need to be recalled/brake system corrected & made firmer, safer! *tr

I have a 8 month old frontier nissan vehicle , with just 1 service on time everything - the failure i got a loose nut on the rear brake caliper - while i was driving downhill on a mountain with snow - lost all brake fluids and brake systems just went hard to work and not a uniform brake. To correct i went to dealer and they said they just re-torque the nut and that's it. *tr
