Checking with service assist systom, There was a parking brake adjustment problem. Wouldn't hurt to have it checked out.Coco said:Doesn't sound right to me at all, but I can hear the grinding and the pad looks about gone..who knows, maybe it's me. But I couldn't believe I already needed brakes![]()

Nissan did have problems with brake pad material and they know it, They've come out with several updated brake pads lately, But getting them to kick down might not be that easy. Brake pad manufactures are being forced to go with organic materials, which is softer causing premature brake pads wear. Thank our govement for that.SILENT_RUNNER said:Several GM cars I owned had the brakes replaced under warantees that were not documented, but existed. I think it related to excessive wear under 10,000 miles, or something like that. Nissan may have something similiar but not advertised. It may be worth a shot.![]()
Ya they've had a lot of complaints about brake pad wear. It drives service managers crazy, cause they got to deal with the customer heat. They got to tell ya something?Ratwayne said:Doesn`t Nissan(and many others) claim that by using a softer organic material, the rotors will last considerably longer, albeit the pads have to be changed frequently. The Cost will balance Out. I have no problem with that?![]()
I slam pads on my wifes sentra all the time without turning the rotors, As long as there not making noise, or they don't shimmy do to warped rotors, I don't worry about it. But, I always use factory pads and never have any problems.Ratwayne said:Right on, I was sold on it and so others probably willIt does sound feasible, considering you can change your own pads(if the rotors don`t have to be touched)in 40 minutes or less in your own garage.
