I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ARMADA AND THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN GIVING ME PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT THE SUV. INITIALLY IT WAS ONLY WARPED ROTORS AND EXCESSIVE BRAKE PAD WEAR, BUT NOW THE BRAKES HAVE NEARLY FAILED ON ME THREE TIMES. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES, IT APPEARS THAT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES KICK IN, THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSES FURTHER, AND A LOUD GROANING NOISE CAN BE HEARD EMANATING FROM THE BRAKES. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES IN THE RAIN UNDER VERY MODERATE BRAKING CONDITION (PARKING LOT CONDITIONS) AND WHEN THE PARKING BRAKE HAS BEEN USED DUE TO PARKING ON A HILL. WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS THE PARKING LIGHT , THE SLIP, AND VDC LIGHTS COMES ON. *TR
