Have purchased a 2016 Qashqai from Cargiant less than a month ago....last week, a really loud hiss started coming out from drivers side- thought it was vent system, but it seems to be breaks. Hiss has gotten louder every day, and it seems to go away when you let go of the brakes, which makes it seem like it is certainly brake related. Drove it a short distance tonight and brakes seemed to be jittery when pushed, shaking a bit when I applied pressure. Meant to take it to the garage tomorrow but really nervous to drive it. Anyone had experience with this? Thanks!
