so yesterday as i was pulling to a friends apartment complex as soon as i pass overr the gate and the 5 freaking speed bumbs right after another that accompany it . i hear a knock comming from my bakc left tire. so as im driving i look at my tire but see nothing. so i park and get out to get a better look and theres a HUGE bolt sticking out from my tire. Im guessing it was what they use to rivet the speed bumbs down. cause that sucker was huge. luckily i had a spare.

so while i jack my car i go stomp on my e brake to make sure my car doesnt roll anywhere when it lifts up. long story short after i finish changing the spare and start driving MY E BRAKE LIGHT WONT GO OFF??????? MY navigation keeps telling me that my brake is on. but when i check its really not????? the light will only go off if i reach down and pull up in the brake pedal.... What should i do guys???????? i think that when i stomped it down with my foot i might have bent the sensor mount or something?>>>?????

what level is your brake fluid at?

there should be a micro switch at the top of the parking brake pedal. Try messing with it. You could have stomped it hard enough to bend the arm on the switch they are pretty flimsy IF that is how Infiniti does it.

fluid levels are okay. i was thinking the same thing about the switch theory. but i cant seem to find it....??? any idea on where it is located. i mean i stomped my e brake pedal so hard that the rubber piece came off it

follow the parking brake pedal all the way up under the dash where the cable connects to it
