Description of the problem | My vehicle has 25,000 miles currently. There was heavy juddering while braking since 22,000 miles and i didn't attribute it to the brakes and thought it was probably the tire pressure. I changed the tire pressure to different psi but it still didn't help. I took it to the dealer and the dealer said i had to change the brake pads and turn the brake rotors. I found the next day that there was tsb #05023 issued by infiniti in july 2005. My vehicle was purchased in sept 2003. The dealer does not want to honor the warranty even when i referred to the tsb. Inifiniti says this vehicle will not be covered even though the tsb mentions that this particular brake judder issue is a known defect and covers my model year. There is widespread reporting of this issue at a very low odometer reading on the internet forums. *nm |
