problem #31

Rogue

  • 500 miles
The car's automatic emergency braking system brakes suddenly without warning and randomly. It does so without any obstacles or obstructions visible, or when vehicles are in the vecinity while driving. This proposed safety feature in actuallity has made these experiences feel it as unsafe. I have had this problem for a year and a half. To remedy the situation I have turned off the automatic braking feature off, since it does not work. And on the contrary it actually makes the SUV feel more unsafe.

problem #30

May 072019

Rogue

  • 6,067 miles
The automatic braking system engaged for no reason while traveling forward at 30mph. This happened on a city street with a slight decline and no cars around the vehicle. There was a sharp deceleration accompanied by a grinding sound. This lasted a brief second or two, then the vehicle resumed forward motion. The vehicle did not come to a complete stop. This is the second time this has happened with this vehicle. The last time it happened (the first week we had the vehicle) the dealer replaced the distance sensor. Obviously there is still a problem.

Rogue

  • 38,000 miles
2018 Nissan Rogue - out of the blue, dashboard light flashes "warning malfunction" and the emergency brake light icon comes on. The vehicle also by itself started braking making it hard to drive. There were no cars in front of me. I turned the car off, waited a few minutes and turned the car back on and the warning light was gone. This happened again a few days later while I was driving, again, no cars or anything blocking my way - car is braking on its own. Taking car to dealer for service to be looked at - saw similar issues having been posted on the web.

problem #23

Rogue

  • 11,800 miles
Aeb (automatic emergency braking) disables itself automatically. The system turned itself off when I was driving at 40mph. The system thinks there is an obstruction when their is nothing in front of you. This defeats the purpose of the system to stop you in an emergency. Make Nissan change the radar. This is a safety issue.

problem #20

Rogue

  • 5,600 miles
I was travelling in my vehicle when I came to a red traffic light and stopped. Once the light turned green, I proceeded to go forward when my vehicle seemed to slowed down on its own. When I stepped on the gas pedal, it seemed the vehicle didn't want to move forward. The other issue is that this morning I was driving in my vehicle when all of a sudden some sensors seemed to be set off. I then pulled over and turned of the ignition. I was then able to start my vehicle and proceed to my destination without another occurrence.
