Hi all,
I have noticed this issue a few times before but last night was the clearest instance yet. You drive at ~50 MPH and firmly but briefly (~0.5 seconds) fully apply the brakes. Immediately let off the brakes and you'll notice the car will hold the brakes for you for another 1 or 2 seconds. ABS will be activated during this period.
While driving down a back road, I had some wildlife cross right in front of my car. I hit the brakes enough to not hit the animal but let go of them so the animal following me too close behind wouldn't hit me. The other driver nearly plowed into me as a result and swore me out for "brake checking" him (don't worry, he was properly responded to).
This 2013 Nissan Leaf of mine is my first ever Nissan/Japanese car and I don't know if they all do this or if there's an issue I need to report to Nissan. I can do this brake tapping at any speed all day long on any of my VW, Ford, Chevy cars.
Anyone else has experienced this issue?
JR
