WHILE DRIVING MY NISSAN ARMADA 2004, MY BRAKES LIGHT CAME ON, BRAKES LOCKED UP, BRAKES PEDAL DID NOT WORK AND THERE WAS A LOUD GRINDING SOUND. WAS VERY SCARY FOR MY CHILDREN, HUSBAND AND MYSELF. PULL MY VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE AS FAR AS I COULD. BRAKE PEDAL DID NOT WORK PROPERLY, WAS AS IF THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPING DEAD IN ITS TRACKS, BUT STILL MOVING. PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK, TURNED OFF IGNITION AND RESTARTED IT. BRAKE LIGHT WENT OFF, NO NOISE AND PEDAL SEEMED TO BE WORKING! *TR
