I was surprised when it first started happening at 14k miles. I dont slam on my brakes or anything, I drive the same way as my other 3 cars that I had before. None had this problem. And for the dealer to say our brakes are only good for 15k miles??? that was surprising to me.

All my brakes and rotors were changed at 13,000 miles. Now at 20,000 miles my car squeals like crazy when I back up. I have the car in at the dealer now for some other issues and I'm waiting to see what they may do. I do not want the rotors turned as that just shortens the life of them. I would prefer if they change the pads and rotors again.

"you are right and a quick fight with the service manager should get you the repairs."
Or get you told to leave and never show your face again.
Dealerships are independent business which have little obligation to deal with irate customers.
Your complaints and warranty are with Nissan not dealers.

This is an improvement, but I have found in my 05 coupe brake pulsing at 12k miles. Per the StopTech site, the brake pad compound is not suitable for the car.

I just had a service tech at Infiniti of Ardmore (PA) tell me that this happens all the time. People expect a performance car, drive it like one, and have this happen to the brakes. It's absurd!

so i just hit 35k and my brakes are squealing like hell. I called up the dealership, they said its a 3yr 36k mileage warranty on the brakes. My car was purchased March 27th 2004...3 yrs and a little over 1 month ago. Now i gotta pay in full for it. Think there's any way to get around that?

I had my brakes checked at 35 months (30K miles) and had them checked to see if they needed replacing. They didn't yet.
10 months later, and 8000 miles, the front brakes needed replacing. I just did so at the local Nissan (I wasn't driving 200 miles round trip just to do it at the Infiniti dealership). $250 later, I should be set for driving in the mountains
