One thing that I did noticed while observing the MC and boaster while a friend pressed hard on the peddle with engine running is that the MC moves slightly forward with the surface of the boaster. Could it be that Nissan is making the boasters from thinner material. My wife has a 1014 Rogue and it has a firm peddle always.

Are you sure it's not the firewall that's flexing? Just a thought. I remember working on an old Datsun 720 that had a weak firewall due to corrosion and the brake booster would move forward when you pushed the brake pedal down with force. Otherwise, Gen 1 Frontiers typically have solid-feeling brakes when they are properly adjusted. There are a number of people that complain that they grab too hard or lock-up.
