After a panic stop which activates the ABS system, this vehicle is unresponsive to throttle input for an excessive period of time (10 seconds or more). This has been demonstrated to the dealer and a new, similar vehicle showed the same performance. The dealer indicates it must be inherent with the vehicle, no fix is available from nissan. This unresponsiveness after a panic stop is un-safe.
2012 Nissan Rogue brakes complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I was on a highway in heavy traffic, travelling 5 MPH in a brand new nissan car that I had recently leased. I had to stop and go several times. During this time my brakes failed sporadically. Each time it stopped only after hitting the truck ahead. I was towed to the nearest nissan dealer. It then took me two weeks to get to speak to an appropriate person. He was part of nissan's arbitration department. He said he himself would feel unsafe to drive this car, and that his wife would definitely not let him drive it, even if nissan failed to duplicate the problem. Therefore, if nissan can?t duplicate the problem, I need to keep the same car. I have read reports on the federal safety agency website that even after cars with similar brake problems were repaired, the same problem recurred. At the time of the incident the mileage on the car was 3200.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 nissan rogue. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, the anti-lock braking system warning light illuminated. The vehicle made a sudden movement and pulled when the contact applied the brakes. The contact checked under the hood and noticed there was a loss of brake fluid. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who advised that the master cylinder was defective. The vehicle was repaired by replacing the ABS pump and bleeding the brakes. The failure recurred and the vehicle was repaired a second time. The current mileage was 4,950. The failure mileage was 1,988. Updated 7/23/12
