This occurred after applying the brakes ahead of a stop sign as the vehicle rolled over a bump/irregularity in the road. The abs and vdc (anti-slip) activated briefly then the pedal got soft. It remained in this condition (spongy and…

    The vehicle was in motion on the highway and also turning.yaw rate sensor malfunctioning. I took to the dealer and was quoted 800.00 for sensor excluding labor. Im in m.s...i live in t.n. I was advised it wasnt safer on interstate travel. This vehicle is only 3 yrs old. At this point it is considered my safety. I think nissan should stand behind there product.
