Description of the problem | While traveling on the highway to another state, i attempted to stop my vehicle, an 2004 infiniti qx56, as traffic slowed and stopped. I pressed the brake pedal and heard a clicking sound and the brake indicator light came on and the vehicle would not stop completely. The pedal began to go to the floor then began to feel stiff. I had to swerve to the side of the road to avoid hitting someone else's vehicle. Once i completely stopped, i got out and inspected the brake fluid level, and the brakes and both seemed to be fine. I got back in the vehicle and after i turned the ignition on, the brake indicator had went off and the pedal seemed to be working fine. I traveled on to my destination without any other issues. Once at my destination, i had the brakes inspected and the repair shop said they could not find an issue. This has happened several more times since this incident, and each time when taken to a repair shop, nothing can be found wrong with my brakes. |
