2017 Nissan Rogue Brakes

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR MADE A LOUD BEEPING NOISE AND STOPPED ON IT'S OWN. IT BREAKED AND I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE BREAKS OR ACCELERATION. THE EMERGENCY BREAK SYSTEM WENT OFF. A LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DASHBOARD THAT SAID 'MALFUNCTION! CHECK OWNER'S MANUAL.' (SEE PIC). IT WAS REALLY SCARY. I HAD MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE CAR. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WERE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH A TRUCK BEHIND ME! THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND I KNOW IT'S BEING INVESTIGATED, BUT THIS NEEDS TO GO AWAY. THIS IS SO SO UNSAFE!

REFERENCE TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE; 8 ISSUES ALREADY REPORTED TO NHTSA ON THE NISSAN ROGUE, INVOLVING 8 WRECKS, 5 INJURIES, GUESS THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE KILLED BEFORE ADDRESSING THE SITUATION. I WAS WEST BOUND I-76 OUT OF DENVER CO IN MY 2017 NISSAN ROUGE,WHEN WE CAME UPON AN ACCIDENT SCENE IN THE EXTREME LEFT LANE NEXT TO THE EAST/WEST CONCRETE LANE DIVIDER, I SLOWED DOWN WITH THE REST OF THE TRAFFIC AS WE ATTEMPTED TO MERGE INTO THE RIGHT LANE TO GET AROUND THE ACCIDENT, TRAFFIC WAS MOVING AT ABOUT 10-15 MPH OR SLOWER, AS I LOOKED AT THE RIGHT LANE FOR SPACE TO MERGE, A CAR IN THE RIGHT LANE JUMPED IN FORNT OF ME INTO THE LANE THE ACCIDENT WAS IN, THAT LANE WAS STOPPED, HE THEN SLAMMED ON HIS BRAKES, I HAD ABOUT15-20 FEET BETWEEN US, I HIT MY BRAKES HARD, THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, NO BRAKES. I TOLD WIFE TO HANG ON WE THEN HIT HIS CAR COMING IN CONTACT WITH HIS BUMPER HITCH WHICH STUCK OUT ABOUT 10 INCHES.I WAS STANDING ON THE BRAKE SO HARD MY LEG CRAMPED UP! WE BOTH GOT OUR OF OUR CARS, HE SAW NO DAMAGE TO HIS, GOT BACK IN AND LEFT THE SCENE AS THE LANE HAD THEN STARTED MOVING AGAIN, AS WE WERE PAST THE ACCIDENT. ACTUALLY THE VEHICLES INVOLVED IN THE ACCIDENT WE WERE AVOIDING HAD BEEN MOVED TO THE LEFT SAFETY LANE BUT ONE A PICKUP WAS PROTRUDING INTO LEFT LANE OF TRAFFIC CAUSING US TO HAVE TO MERGER TO THE RIGHT TO PASS, BUT STILL STAY IN BASIC LEFT LANE, THAT WAS WHEN HE MADE MOVE IN FRONT OF ME..HAVE BEEN DRIVING 64 YEARS, 40 PROFESSIONALLY, NEVER HAD A CHARGE ACCIDENT. NOW HAVE ONE DUE TO FAILURE OF THE BRAKES ON 2 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 25,000 MILES ON IT.. NOT THE FIRST TIME FOR NISSAN AS STATED ABOVE, ARE THEY WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO GET KILLED BEFORE THEY ADDRESS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE? AT THE LEAST A VEHICLE CHECK SHOULD BE ISSUED TO NISSAN! WE NEEDED TO RENT A CAR FROM ENTERPRISE TO FINISH OUR TRIP, OVER $4500 DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE.

THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM DEPLOYS AT RANDOM RESULTING IN NEAR REAR END COLLISIONS. THE CAR HAS BRAKED FORCIBLY WHEN DRIVING OVER SPEED BUMPS, METAL PLATES ON THE ROAD, AND RAILROAD TRACKS. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT WON'T REPLACE THE DETECTION SYSTEM SAYING THAT CAN'T "RECREATE" THE PROBLEM. IT CAN'T BE DISABLED PERMANENTLY. PLEASE INSIST ON A RECALL. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS! OWNERS SHOULD BE WARNED TO TURN IT OFF MANUALLY EVERY TIME THEY ENTER THEIR CARS.

I WAS PULLING INTO A DRIVEWAY IN THE CITY, AND THEN AEB STARTED TO BEEP AND THEN SUDDENLY STOPPED THE CAR (THE BRAKES MADE A GRINDING NOISE, THEY STOPPED THAT HARD). THERE WAS NO OBSTRUCTION IN FRONT OF THE SENSOR, AND I WAS ALREADY APPLYING THE BRAKE AND GOING LESS THAN 10 MPH.

MY CAR SUDDENLY BRAKED ON ITS OWN WHILE TRAVELING AT 40 MILES PER HOUR WITHOUT A CAR OR OBJECT IN FRONT OF MY CAR.

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR IN AREAS WITH UNEVEN STREETS OR STREET REPAIRS PLANCKS ON GROUND EITHER AUTIMATIC BREAKS WOULD ACTIVATE OR CAR WOULDN'T SLOW DOWN WHEN BREAKS WERE HIT. WHILE DRIVING ON AN UNEVENLY PAVED ROAD AT ABOUT 30M/P/H THE BREAKS WERE PRESSED & CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN UNTIL IT COLLIDED WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE.

ON AT LEAST 5 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING ON OUR 2017 NISSAN ROGUES (WE OWN TWO) HAS GONE OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON. SOME WERE ON A HIGHWAY AROUND 55MPH, SOME WERE ON RESIDENTIAL ROADS AROUND 25MPH. IF WE IGNORE IT AND DON'T HIT THE BRAKES IT ENDS UP BRAKING THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE WAS IN THE CONTACT'S BLIND SPOT AND DRIVING WITHOUT THE HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO STOP, BUT THE BRAKES SEIZED. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL BUMPING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT STOP AND THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE OTHER VEHICLE IN HIS BLIND SPOT. THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED AFTER THE CRASH. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO HIS LEG, BUT DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CALL MOMENTUM NISSAN (2545 AUTO MALL PKWY, FAIRFIELD, CA 94533, (707) 402-3200) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED; HOWEVER, ALL SEVEN LOCATIONS AFTER CLOSED AFTER REPORTS OF TOO MANY VEHICLES BEING SOLD WITH MULTIPLE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,300.

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 35 MILES AN HOUR ON AN EMPTY CITY STREET THE EMERGENCY BREAKING SYSTEM KICKED IN AND THE TIRES SCREECHED OUT OF NOWHERE.

I WAS DRIVING ON A PUBLIC ROAD (SPEED LIMIT 45), GOING ABOUT 45 MPH. WHEN I WAS GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND HAD A GREEN LIGHT, THE EMERGENCY AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM STARTED ENGAGING, BEEPING FIST. THERE WERE NO CARS IN OR NEAR THE INTERSECTION. AFTER SEVERAL WARNING BEEPS, THE EAB SYSTEM STARTED ENGAGING THE BRAKES, INDICATING THAT A CRASH WAS IMMINENT. AGAIN, THERE WAS NO CARS NEAR OR BY US. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED BY THE CAR, AND IT TOOK A MOMENT BEFORE THE BRAKES EASED UP AND I COULD APPLY THE GAS PEDAL. WE WERE GOING STRAIGHT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION.

AS I WAS DRIVING THROUGH THE PARKING GARAGE AT WORK, GOING ABOUT 20 MPH, MY CAR SUDDENLY AND VERY ABRUPTLY CAME TO A SCREECHING HALT. MY AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKE WARNING HAD BEEPED ONLY TWICE BEFORE THE CAR STOPPED. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF MY CAR. NO PEOPLE OR CAR OR ANYTHING. IF ANYBODY HAD BEEN BEHIND ME THEY MIGHT HAVE RUN INTO ME. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I TOOK THE CAR TO NISSAN TO HAVE THEM FIX THE FAULTY FRONT SENSOR. THEY HAD FIRST TRIED AN UPDATE AND THEN DECIDED TO REPLACE THE SENSOR. OBVIOUSLY THIS DID NOTHING SINCE THE SENSOR STILL DID NOT WORK A WEEK LATER. I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN AGAIN AND NISSAN SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THEY TOLD ME I HAD THE OPTION TO TURN THE FEATURE OFF BUT EVERY TIME I TURN THE CAR ON I HAVE TO REMEMBER TO TURN THE FEATURE OFF AS IT AUTOMATICALLY TURNS ITSELF BACK ON AGAIN. THIS SEEMS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME THAT I AM PAYING LOTS OF MONEY FOR A CAR WITH A FEATURE THAT HAS ALREADY PUT MY LIFE, AS WELL AS OTHERS' LIVES IN DANGER!

MONDAY, 04/15/2019 @ APPROXIMATELY 1000 HOURS CST, WHILE DRIVING E-BOUND ON I274 (CHICAGO) OUR VEHICLE'S (2017 NISSAN ROGUE, AWD) BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED (HARD) ON ITS OWN AND THE STEERING TEMPORARILY LOCKED UP. E-BOUND I274 TRAFFIC WAS CONGESTED AND MOVING @ AROUND 45 TO 50 MPH. WE WERE TRAVELING @ A SAFE DISTANCE (ESTIMATE 3 CAR LENGTHS) FROM THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US. VEHICLES BEHIND US HAD TO BRAKE HARD TO AVOID REAR-ENDING OUR VEHICLE. DRIVING OUR VEHICLE WAS MY SPOUSE, I WAS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND MY 12 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER WAS IN THE REAR SEAT (DRIVER'S SIDE). MY BEST GUESS ...THE UNASSISTED BRAKING ACTION AND LOCKED STEERING SEEM TO LAST 3-5 SECONDS. WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALER OF PURCHASE TO INQUIRE AS TO THE SEVERITY OF THE PROBLEM. THEY WERE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE SYMPTOMS/PROBLEM. WE SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR THE 16TH OF APRIL, 2019. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AND THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE PROBLEM CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BRAKE ON IT'S OWN. THEY DID NOTE, ON THE WORK ORDER/INVOICE THAT THERE IS A "TSB RELATED TO .ACTIVATION OF FEB FEW AEB". $95.00 CHARGE ASSESSED FOR THEIR SERVICE. THURSDAY, 18 APRIL 2019 @ APPROXIMATELY 2300 HOURS MY SPOUSE AND GRANDDAUGHTER WERE RETURNING FROM A PLAY, WHILE PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY OF OUR RESIDENCE OUR VEHICLE REPEATED EMERGENCY BRAKING AND LOCKED STEERING ACTION. THIS UNASSISTED ACTION WHILE DRIVING IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!!!!!!

MY NISSAN BRAKES AT A SET OF EMERGENCY LIGHTS OUTSIDE A FIRE STATION. I REPORTED IT TO NISSAN WITHIN A MONTH OF GETTING MY CAR AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE LOOKING IN TO IT. THE DEALER THOUGHT I WAS MAKING IT UP. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME, BUT DAY OR NIGHT SEEMS TO BE LESS IF I GO FASTER THAN THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. I GOT A LETTER THAT I CAN HAVE IT 'FIXED' BUT THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T HAVE A CLUE HOW TO DO IT, THEY HAD MY CAR OVERNIGHT AND SAID THEY HAD TO ORDER A PART, THEN WHEN I COMPLAINED MIRACULOUSLY THE PART WAS IN AND I NEEDED TO BRING MY CAR BACK, BUT WAS TOLD 'THIS IS NOT A RECALL, IT IS JUST FIX. I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I HAVE SEEN CARS SWERVE BEHIND ME AS MY CAR DOES SUCH A SUDDEN UNEXPECTED BRAKING. THE ROAD IS A RURAL ROAD, SPEED LIMIT IS 35. THE FIRE STATION LIGHTS ARE CONSTANT BLINKING YELLOW AND WILL TURN RED SO THAT TRAFFIC STOPS FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES TO GET OUT ON THE ROAD IN AN EMERGENCY. MY CAR AUTO BRAKES ON THE YELLOW BLINKING HAS DONE IT ABOUT 100 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE CAR

UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION, HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO DECELERATE, THE BRAKES SEIZED, AND THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FRONT WHEELS WANTED TO SPIN, BUT THEY WERE LOCKED. THE VEHICLE WAS SCHEDULED TO BE DIAGNOSED BY FAMILY NISSAN OF LAREDO (3701 E SAUNDERS ST, LAREDO, TX 78041) ON DECEMBER 2, 2019. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,776.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH OVER RAILROAD TRACKS, THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE SEIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (FRED ANDERSON NISSAN OF ASHEVILLE, 629 BREVARD RD, ASHEVILLE, NC 28806, (828)-348-6850) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES SEIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 4,000.

SUNDAY JANUARY 28, 2018 A SECOND TOTALLY UNNECESSARY DEPLOYMENT AGAIN OCCURRED, THIS TIME AT @ 8:43 AM. I WAS AGAIN ON THE SOUTHBOUND MAJOR DEEGAN EXPRESSWAY, HAVING ENTERED SOUTH OF YONKERS AVENUE, BUT THIS TIME IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE ON A SLIGHT DOWNHILL CURVE TO THE LEFT, PAST MCLEAN AVENUE OVERPASS, SPEED 52 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, WHEN THE FORWARD EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY DEPLOYED, FOR ABOUT 2 TO 3 SECONDS. AGAIN, THERE WAS NO CAR IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF ME; NO DEBRIS ON THE ROADWAY; NOTHING THAT WOULD ALERT THE SENSOR. AFTER EMAILING THE YORKTOWN NISSAN NEW CAR DEALER LAST WEEK JANUARY. 25TH AFTER THE FIRST SUCH INCIDENT, SEVERAL HOURS LATER I HAD RECEIVED NO RESPONSE. I THEN CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS DIRECTED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE RECEPTIONIST WOULD NOT PUT ME THROUGH TO THE SERVICE MANAGER, BUT INSTEAD ALLEGEDLY SPOKE WITH A SERVICE DEPT. PERSON, AND REPLIEDY TO ME THAT "MOST LIKELY THERE IS DIRT COVERING THE SENSOR". I INQUIRED WHERE THE SENSOR IS, AND WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE. SHE REPLIED "THE SENSOR LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE CAMERA AND IT'S EITHER IN YOUR GRILL OR IN YOUR BUMPER". I EXAMINED THE SENSOR BUT DID NOT DETECT ANY PIECE OF DIRT OR ANYTHING COVERING THE SENSOR. I'M VERY WORRIED ABOUT THIS UNEXPLAINED EMERGENCY DEPLOYMENT OF THE FORWARD BRAKING SYSTEM, AND WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE ON THIS MATTER, AND WHO TO CONTACT TO SEE IF OTHER NISSAN OWNERS HAVE SIMILAR EXPERIENCES, AND TRY TO IDENTIFY IF THERE IS ANY DEFECT IN THE SYSTEM. I AM EXTREMELY WORRIED ABOUT BEING REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR WHEN THE SYSTEM, FOR NO REASON, DEPLOYS THE EMERGENCY BRAKING

WHILE DRIVING STEADY @45MPH THE BRAKES APPLIED FULLY, AS IF THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY. NO CAR IN FRONT. THIS WAS ON A CITY 4 LANE ROAD WITH A 45MPH SPEED LIMIT.

I HAVE A SHORT COMMUTE TO WORK DOWNTOWN WHERE I HAVE TO PARK IN A PARKING STRUCTURE. THIS FRIDAY MORNING THE CAR WAS DRIVING FINE UNTIL I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE. AS I TRIED TO SLOWDOWN THE VEHICLE INTO PARKING, THE CAR DID NOT STOP. I PUMPED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TWICE BEFORE HITTING THE CONCRETE WALL ON THE 6TH FLOOR OF THE STRUCTURE. I AM CURRENTLY WAITING ON THE ESTIMATE FOR THE REPAIRS, BUT I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.
