Hi
I’m new to this forum, so excuse any rookie errors.
I bought my 2019 Leaf at the end of June this year. Everything was brilliant until after about 2000 miles at the end of September when I had an issue when breaking at a junction. The brakes didn’t seem to work, my foot was to the floor, there was a terrible screeching noise like when you’ve run our of brake pads, plus I think the ABS. Luckily I stopped in time, I drove over the road in to a side road, checked the tyres as didn’t know what else to do, did a “U” turn at which point the front left of the car made a brief metal sound, and drove very slowly the few miles home. It’s not happened again, my Nissan Dealer have had it in twice and can’t find a problem. I got them to check the wheels for any signs of a stone getting in and they couldn’t find any.
I got in touch with Nissan Customer Care a few weeks ago, and I feel they’re not really very bothered, and have to push. They’re saying they’re contacting the dealer again as I’ve asked for an explanation of how it could have happened etc.
It’s like wading through mud trying to get any help. I feel had I not stopped and been wiped out no one would have know it wasn’t my fault...
Does anyone know of anyone else having similar problems?
