This issue occurs with the nissan e-pedal engaged/enabled. It happens intermittently after driving off. Symptom regenerative breaking/e-brake does not engage. Vehicle coasts. No blue bars light up on the dash to indicate that regenerative breaking is active. Break pedal has be be engaged for it to stop. I have reproduced it several times usually after vehicle has been parked for a long time. Charge level between 30-80%. Issue has been reported to dealer (10/23/18). Waiting for a response.
2018 Nissan Leaf acceleration complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
This nissan car is equipped with features named, pro-pilot assist (ppa), intelligent cruise control (icc) and emergency brake assist (eba). When engaged, it is supposed to keep lanes and follow distance if there is a car in front. When the car in front is stopped this car is supposed to stop as well. Ppa when engaged, if there are good road markings, will show a green stearing on the dash board, to show that car can steer it self. However if there is a car stopped in front on the same lane (ex. Stopped for a red light), this car do not detect that there is a car stopped, and keep going forward until crash into the stopped car, driver have to intevene to stop at this time to stop. I took car to dealer and they said this is normal. That is not what nissan advertise. This behavior is quite dangerous of these cars, and my expectation is the car need to stop if there is an obstruction in the road, when the green steering wheel on dash is showing that car is doing auto-steer.
