Braking system did not function causing vehicle to rear end car in front of me when I was in heavy afternoon traffic entering I-565 from a downward ramp from overpass over I-565. Minimum damage to toyota highlander hit from rear. Significant damage to front end of rogue. Undriveable. Towed to body shop!
While driving down a straight suburban road at approximately 40 MPH, the car beeps several times and comes to a sudden and harsh stop with the brake pedal fully depressed. Car behind almost slammed into the car. No obstruction on road, clear weather.
The automatic emergency brake system engages when there is a clear road and no obstructions in front of or around the vehicle whatsoever. The most recent incident happened while the car was in motion on a highway going 45-50 MPH - the aeb system deployed and the car fully engaged the brakes in an attempt to stop. This was on an open road with no other vehicles or obstructions in the road or even in my direct line of sight. There are many others who seem to have reported this issue to their dealer's service dept. And have been told there is nothing wrong with the sensors. I live where ice is common - had this happened even traveling at a slower pace in bad road conditions, I could have spun out, slid into other traffic, into the ditch, etc. This is an extremely dangerous situation...it's a rear-end collision or even worse accident just waiting to happen.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 nissan rogue. While driving 55 MPH, the automatic emergency braking system suddenly activated and caused the front end of the vehicle to bend downwards. This event almost caused a rear end collision. The failure only lasted a few seconds and then the contact drove home. The vehicle was taken to bertera nissan (569 oxford st s, auburn, ma 01501, (508) 832-9611) where it was diagnosed that the electrical system failed and the vehicle needed to be test driven. The dealer stated that the emergency brake pedal was not covered under the warranty and needed to be replaced because it was worn out by wear and tear. The failure occurred one day after the vehicle was purchased. The failure mileage was 114.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 nissan rogue. The contact stated that the forward collision avoidance sensor malfunctioned. The indicator flashed, which meant the feature was unavailable. The dealer (stadium nissan, 1140 w katella ave, orange, ca 92867, (714) 923-5100) claimed that the vehicle had a sticker that blocked the sensor. The contact stated that the failure occurred before the sticker was placed on the vehicle. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 7,500.
The front sensor on my vehicle is malfunctioning. It says front end collision not detected. I've brought this up to a local nissan dealership and they dismissed it and said nothings wrong. Yet I will be driving down the road and it wont be working. The arrow in the picture I've provided shows where the sensor is. I just put that sticker on a few days ago, but the issue has been ongoing for several months
Purchased new on august 1, 2018 nissan rogue sv. At 500 miles the collision avoidance system cas engaged un-expectantly while driving down a two lane road with no other traffic on the road. Car immediately began braking hard, instrument gages began flashing, and a burning smell coming through the vents. Returned it to stuart nissan in enid, ok. They first stated they had never heard of this happening and knew of no tech bulletins advising same. I then provided them information I retrieved from the nissan site to include the fault code associated with the incident. They first attempted to re-program the computer with no success. They then replaced the computer and installed new programming. This seems to have resolved the issue, as it has not reoccurred since. However when I expressed the potential seriousness of this had it occurred on a busy street or interstate they were indifferent. This has the potential to kill people and should be recalled.
While driving car on a quiet street that has one lane in each direction at approximately 30 MPH the car vibrated, made a loud grinding sound, seemed to pull right and braked hard very suddenly which was very frightening. There were no cars in front, side or back when this occurred. I brought it to a local nissan dealer a few days later and was told they could not duplicate problem. I later called dealer where I leased car and was told they had seen problems with the forward collision braking system that would cause the problem. I took the car to the dealer and was initially told the computer didn't show a code so they could do nothing. I insisted that the car was unsafe to drive and spoke to service manager who said there was an update so then they reprogrammed radar and icc control. I don't know if this will solve problem and I am afraid to drive the car as many other complaints show a fix doesn't necessarily work, problem reoccurs and there have been accidents.. There should be a recall with cars with the automatic collision braking systems before deaths occur.
I recently purchased a 2018 nissan rogue from john sisson nissan in western pennsylvania. The vehicle is equipped with nissan's forward collision monitoring system. While driving on an interstate with no vehicles in front of me, the vehicle automatically applied the brakes. This caused the vehicles behind me to have to quickly react and attempt to go around me. Immediately after the incident, the system went into fault and produced several error codes. The system reset itself after powering off the vehicle. Unfortunately, a similar incident occurred a few hours latter into the trip. I subsequently turned the system off until I could get it to a dealer to be repaired. The dealer had the car for several days and I was informed that the front radar sensor was faulty and was replaced. Hopefully this has resolved the issue. I have done investigating and it appears this type of incident has been reported before and nissan has issued several bulletins. I am question if either nissan or the dealer knew about the issues and sold me the car anyway or even worse, failed to perform maintenace on the vehicle prior to delivery. If this issue is not addressed, it is going to cause a lot of accidents. Someone needs to look into what is going on with these vehicles. *dt
Twice the dirver assist emergency break stopped the car when no other cars are ahead of it. On 11/26 I was stopped at a light. The light turned green I stepped on the gas and within a few seconds the car came to a complete stop. The car behind me almost hit me. I called the dealer I bought the car from and they apparently know of the issue. The dealer said nissan is aware but has not done a recall. I called nissan this morning and they are claiming not to be aware. People will die if this emergency break sensor is not properly fixed.
This has nothing to do with airbags I was driving down the road at 38 miles per hour and a 40 mile-an-hour zone going down a small grade nobody in front nobody behind nobody beside me and the brakes locked up. It threw me for word twist in my body the seatbelt hurt my left hip in my left shoulder because it was unexpected there was nothing there. Thanks
While moving at 35mph on a paved surface street with no obstacles/cars in front of me or behind me and a green light at the next traffic light, the car (2018 nissan rogue s awd) made a high pitched noise and came to a full stop. Seemed as if the emergency braking system engaged for no apparent reason. Could have caused a rear end collision if anyone were behind me or if I were on the highway.
While beginning to accelerate on a local street the car made a grinding noise and the brake applied.
While accelerating on a county street, at almost 40 MPH, my car decided to suddenly brake and almost immediately stop. It vibrated and we heard a loud grinding type noise. I removed my foot from accelerator, and after just a second, the braking stopped and I was able to accelerate again. I was almost rear-ended by the car behind me. No warning lights or sounds were heard. The car has about 15,500 miles. This is the second time that this has happened. The first time was just starting to accelerate from a stop light, so it was at only about 10 MPH. Then the dealership said no codes were thrown, so they could not find a problem to fix. It's in the dealership again today, hoping that they can figure out the problem and fix it. I'm scared to drive this on the freeway, or actually anywhere I want to go more than 10 miles per hour...so that would be every time I want to drive my car!
I was driving around 11am using local roads. I had been driving about 5 minutes when I pulled up to a stop sign. It was a clear day, light traffic, dry pavement, no leaves or other road debris. As I pulled away from the stop sign, within 20 feet, the car suddenly started shaking and stopping. It made an incredibly loud noise. I immediately pulled over the shoulder. There were no messages on the dash or behind the steering wheel. After sitting there a few minutes, I proceeded home without further incident. Later that day, I dropped the car off at the car dealer to check into this problem. I was given a loaner car, and by the following monday, got a call to come and pick up my car. The service team was unable to replicate the problem, so nothing was fixed. This also happened on september 24, 2018. This time, I was exiting a highway and was slowing down on a ramp. The car suddenly started shaking and made a loud noise. It grinded to a stop. It was startling to me, as I've never had a car do this to me before. I assumed there was something wrong with the road surface and figured the anti-lock brake or the collision avoidance system had engaged. I was taking a friend home from cancer surgery that day, so I didn't think about it a whole lot. I had other worries. In considering what happened, I believe that the brakes automatically engaged in both cases. It seemed like the car was determined to stop, even though there were no obstacles in my way. I had no control over the car. It's an unnerving thing to have occur, but at least I was going slow and didn't have cars behind me. I'm concerned that if it happened as I'm going at a high rate of speed on a highway, it could cause a car to rear-end me, or cause my car to swerve out of control and cause an accident.
The forward collision avoidance (fca) / automatic emergency braking system inadvertently activated resulting the brakes being abruptly applied while driving forward on a neighborhood thoroughfare at 40 MPH and nothing in front of me.. There was a vehicle following me which had to swerve around me or else there would have been a rear collision. The system generated a false warning with a beeping and dashboard lights. This is the 1st time the vehicle has applied the brakes in the 3 months I've had the vehicle. I have called the autonation pinecrest dealership and they told me to bring the vehicle in to check the fca sensor because they have similar complaints from other new rogue owners.
My safety braking system suddenly engaged for no apparent reason. I was driving 40 MPH on a straight, level suburban street that was newly paved within the last year. There were no other vehicles around and there were no obstructions in the roadway. The alarm sounded and the brakes engaged. It felt and sounded as though I was driving on speed reducing pavement. The car did not come to a complete stop but it brought my speed down to about 15mph. It then disengaged and normal driving resumed. It was frightening but luckily no one was behind me because it certainly could have caused me to be rear ended.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 nissan rogue. While driving 5 MPH, the vehicle unexpectedly stopped moving and the front camera malfunctioned. The contact also mentioned that the camera erroneously detected that a vehicle was in the front of his vehicle, which caused it to brake automatically. The contact stated that the failures occurred multiple times. Stadium nissan (1140 w katella ave, orange, ca 92867, (714) 923-5100) was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 1,000.
? The automatic emergency braking is faulty. On oct. 10, 2018, I was driving into mt. Hope cemetery in rochester, ny. The road was clear: no traffic, no people. Without warning, the car beeped and came to an abrupt stop and skidded. For a split second, a yellow triangle with something inside it came up on the display. I pushed the brake. I hit nothing. There was nothing there. I drove off without incident. (according to the owner's manual, that triangle indicated a pedestrian.) since then, I've been disabling the aeb whenever I drive. I do not trust the car; it scares me. *dt
Auto emergency braking is activating when there is no vehicle or obstacle in front of me. It happenend the first time I left the dealer on an open highway. It happened again in a dark parking garage, and again when I was going less than 10 miles an hour over railroad tracks. It happened to my husband going over a bridge with metal expansion joints. Good thing no one was behind us when it happened. I will be calling the dealer in the morning. My rogue has around 3,000 miles on it.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 nissan rogue. The contact stated that the vehicle's automatic braking feature independently activated while the vehicle was being driven at various speeds. There were no obstacles in the vehicle's path. The failure occurred without warning on approximately six occasions. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 1,600. *dt consumer stated incident happened 6 times after the purchase. Updated 12/04/18
My 2018 nissan rogue braked suddenly, for no reason. Traveling 30 MPH on a quiet neighborhood street. The lights on the dashboard flashed briefly, there was a loud grinding noise, then sudden and complete stop in the middle of the road. No cars in front or back of mine. The only thing in the road was a metal drain cover. Very frightening experience.
The automatic emergency braking system incorrectly activated resulting in the brakes being abruptly applied while crossing an intersection. Luckily, there wasn't a vehicle following me, or else there may have been a collision. The system regularly generates false warnings , but this is the 2nd time the vehicle has applied the brakes in the 6 months I've had the vehicle *bf
Approaching an uphill grade road, the forward stop assist was activated, stopping the car abruptly. The car behind me had to swerve to avoid from hitting me at the rear. In addition the back up monitor system is inoperative and the lane change warning system only works intermittently.
On three different occasions my car has beeped like someone was in the way one of those occasions breaking pretty abruptly with no vehicles around as a cop went by and I was downtown at night I explained this to the service at chico nissan and was told one other customer had complained but it's just a signal being sent out and there's nothing they can do I don't feel like this is a very safe feature if it's going to slam my brakes on when no one's in front of me especially because someone may be behind me and not expecting my car to abruptly stopped for no good reason
The vehicle will make a sudden accelerated decrease in speed nearly grinding to a halt. The vehicle has 5100 miles on it. This has happened more than once. It has happened twice while traveling over railroad tracks. It will make a grinding noise, then resume operation within seconds. It could cause an accident if someone were behind me. *tt *tr *dt consumer stated there was no warning displayed,nor was there an issue with the vehicle. It did not happen on the way home saturday evening 9/22. I did notice the feb light that was on the dash. Updated 10/11/18*jb
Forward emergency braking system engages while approaching a metal roadway surface and comes to a complete and abrupt stop. The roadway is a driveway on a private property. This vehicle is equipped with a safety system designed to prevent collisions with objects ahead, but engages when there is no object in front. The dealership has been aware of this issue since july 5, 2018 and the manufacturer has been aware since july 26, 2018. In several instances, motorist traveling behind were unexpectedly surprised and forced to take evasive maneuvers to avoid collision. *tt
I bought my new nissan rogue 2018 on july 7, 2018. Last friday aug 17 at 4:30 pm,I was driving my car and it stopped by itself on top of the train tracks in farmingdale, ny., like it had an electronic panic. Thank god I didn't panic. I looked to the right and the left, no trains coming, so I push the start button and the car worked again, I got out of there. I took the car to nissan on saturday and "they say" they fixed the problem. I think this unacceptable, I could be dead right now, and all the stress that was involved. I heard the guy at nissan saying this has been happening to other rogues. They shouldn't be allowed to sell cars with that kind of problem.
The radio/navigation has rebooted twice which disables everything until it restarts also while driving between 35-40 miles and hour on a normal 2 lane road with no other cars around and passing through an intersection the emergency braking system engaged and the started to brake hard, the warning in the car went off as well. I had no idea what happened and it disengaged within a second or two and I continued one my way. The car was purchased about 3 months ago and has 3,600 miles on it. Based on reading this threads, this is a problem that is well known on this model.
