Nissan Kicks abs comes on

Filed Nov 6, 2026 · Acceleration, Engine · GA

P0101 engine code, sudden loss of power, multiple dashboard warning lights- ABS, traction control, head on collision when in winding rods or braking suddenly. Vehicle loses power end up having to turn off and on to reset it. Dangerous on highways ir roads that you cannot pull over. I bought this car in Sept 2026 and it has had this issue about 10 times since then. I am putting the most recent date

Component: ABS Actuator & ECU (Bosch 8 ESP, Nissan P/N 47660-5RL0E, serial #3171279). Available for inspection. What happened: While driving normally, the ABS warning light, traction control light, and airbag (SRS) warning light all illuminated simultaneously. Diagnosed with a scan tool: C1111 (ABS pump motor circuit fault — "failed confirmed"), C1A04 (ADAS/ICC ABS/TCS system fault), C1A26 (ECD mode malfunction). After clearing all codes, C1111 returned within 60 seconds as "failed confirmed," indicating a persistent hardware fault in the ABS pump motor circuit. Safety risk: Vehicle is operating without anti-lock braking, traction control, or electronic stability control. The airbag system may be disabled. In an emergency stop or on wet/icy surfaces, the driver has no ABS or stability intervention. The airbag light indicates SRS may not deploy in a collision. Dealer confirmation: Diagnosis performed by owner using an OBD-II scan tool. The "failed confirmed" status on C1111 returning immediately after clearing is consistent with a hard internal component failure (pump motor drive circuit) within the sealed ABS actuator assembly. Prior warning signs: Failure appeared suddenly with no prior intermittent warning lights reported by the previous owner. Additional notes: The same ABS actuator platform (Bosch/ADVICS 8 ESP) was subject to the federal safety agency recall 20V-xxx for 2015–2019 Murano, Maxima, and Pathfinder due to a pump seal leak causing electrical short and fire risk. The 2018 Kicks uses the same supplier family and architecture but with a different failure mode (internal relay/transistor failure rather than seal leak). The failure mode does not present a fire risk, which is why it was excluded from the recall. The vehicle is 43,000 miles / ~8 years old, within the expected failure window for this component.

The car won’t accelerate pass 40mph , ABS light will turn on , it completely stopped on the free way. I waited 5 minutes and the car started running. I d been doing this since march 2026. Got a diagnosis they thought it was a wheel bearings and sensor but the car didn’t accelerate again. And stopped working.

It originally started about two years ago when the check engine light came on (along with others) that point to a code with the Mass Air Flow sensor. It would stall at low RPMs at traffic lights, and was extremely worrying during normal driving. We got it replaced and so far okay, but recently the ABS and traction control lights come on and stay on. Another issue that many MANY Nissan owners experience. Some people thinks it’s a dirty throttle body, dirty front collision sensor, dirfty MAF. The problem is that when any of these issues are fixed, it comes back. We don’t know why the ABS and traction control (plus front collision by the way) lights come on. We took it to a mechanic, it was off for two whole days. Now it’s back on. Can’t wait to have it stall on us in the mean time.

When driving in rainy, snowy/icy, or wet conditions, water/slush impacts the front sensors/MAF sensor, causing the engine to shudder, stall, and shut off completely while in drive. The ABS, battery, and oil lights instantly flash on the dashboard, and the Automatic Emergency Braking system triggers/faults, creating a severe stall and safety hazard on active roads.

The contact owns a 2024 Nissan Kicks. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the ABS warning light was intermittently illuminated. While driving 45 MPH, the vehicle failed to stop as intended while depressing the brake pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that excessive force was needed to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a dealer; however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure or diagnose the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and the contact was provided an assigned case number. The vehicle remained with the dealer however, the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 15,730.

The vehicle's ABS Actuator (47660-5RW0D) failed and was replaced. Given the mileage was only 32,827, the component failed prematurely and was nowhere near the end of its lifetime expectancy. This indicates it was inherently defective from the factory. This premature failure presented a critical safety hazard. Because the component controls anti-lock braking and the electronic stability control, a sudden failure compromises vehicle safety, increases stopping distances, and poses an immediate risk to driver, passenger, and public safety. Multiple warning lights have been sporadically coming on, every few months, since November of 2025 when the vehicle was serviced, but would go after the vehicle was turned off. This was dismissed as an electric glitch due to a firmware update after researching online to find this was a common occurrence and would just be fixed the next time the vehicle was serviced. Finally, a few days prior to 05/30/2026, the lights came on and stayed on. The vehicle was checked for a bad battery at a local auto parts store on 05/30/2026 as this was researched to be another common possibility. When this was ruled out, the vehicle was taken to a local dealership and inspected and diagnosed to be the bad ABS actuator.

The contact owns a2019 Nissan Kicks. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the engine had stall while the RPMs had dropped below 2000. Also, the ABS and Traction Control warning lights had illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local mechanic who informed of a service code related to the Mass Air Flow was identified and the air filter and battery was replaced, but the failure continued. The manufacturer and local dealer were not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 70,000.

CEL on, code PO101 indicates MAF sensor is faulty with related ABS, FCW, and slippery road lights illuminating when braking on a curve or at a stop sign. Car often loses power and need to be turned off to reset and become driveable again. Cleaning and replacing the MAF sensor and air filter does not fix the problem. This is a known issue for 2019 Kicks that Nissan is failing to address. This issue renders the car unreliable and unsafe to drive.

Vehicle experienced sudden engine stall/shutdown after warning indicators illuminated. While driving at low speed, the ABS warning light, front collision warning light, and check engine light appeared. After placing the vehicle in Park, the engine shut off unexpectedly. Vehicle would then restart but stall again within several seconds. This created a serious safety concern because the vehicle could lose power unexpectedly in traffic or while entering an intersection, reducing ability to accelerate, steer safely with traffic flow, or avoid a collision. OBD diagnostic codes retrieved were P0101, P0102, and P0113. Based on research into common 2018-2020 Nissan Kicks issues, these codes may be secondary/false airflow sensor warnings caused by a failing or sticking electronic throttle body rather than an actual mass air flow sensor failure. Sudden stalling and restart-then-stall behavior are consistent with throttle body malfunction. Problem appears intermittent. Vehicle/component is available for inspection upon request. No prior warning lamps were present before the incident.
