2005 Nissan Armada problems

“My breaking system has a malfunction that comes on and off. Sometimes the brakes automatically stop working and start grinding as if I have no brakes, but when I brought it to be looked at they couldn't find the problem. I notice that when you turn the car off and turn it back on the problems of sides for a little while will eventually come back later. For someone to detect it, they cannot shut the car off at the time that is presenting itself.”

“ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS STARTING JULY 2011 AND ENDING MARCH 2015, THE BRAKES FAILED AFTER VDC/ABS/SLIP WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED ON A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA. ON ONE OF THE OCCASIONS, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP CAUSING IT TO GO THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION AND JUST MISSED BEING STRUCK BY A TRACTOR TRAILER. SPENT OVER $2000.00 IN REPAIRS AND THE PROBLEMS PERSIST. I NO LONGER FEEL SAVE IN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND FINALLY SOLD IT AT A LOST. *JS”

“For several years now since I received this car from a family member gas gauge has been not working I contacted Nissan they said my year or VIN number was it affected but that's not accurate because it is so what can I do”

“The contact owned a 2005 Nissan Armada. The contact stated that while driving at 45 MPH, his steering wheel was locked without warning. Due to the failure, the contact veered off the road and hit two parked vehicles. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact stated that a little girl was standing near one of the parked vehicles and was knocked into a tree and was airlifted to a child trauma center. The contact stated that from his knowledge, the girl was only treated for cuts and bruises. The contact stated that he was knocked out for a few minutes after impact but refused medical attention at the scene. He later went to the hospital and was treated for a concussion and whiplash. The contact stated that he believed that a police report was filed but was not certain. The vehicle was towed from the scene to an independent tow yard where it was deemed a total loss. The dealer nor the manufacturer have been notified of the failure. The vehicle had been destroyed. The failure mileage was approximately 215,000.”
