Is the stopper still on the brake pedal?? Do you see any broken plastic pieces on the floor? Chances are the plastic brake stopper broke off on the pedal. Get one from Courtesy Nissan or your nearest Nissan Dealer.

Tape a nickel over the hole where the stopper goes. It's worked for about a year and a half now :bigthumb:
