Filed Mar 23, 2026 · Driver assistance · PA · crash

While driving on the highway, when I attempted to break the car did not stop. The warning lights came on and the vehicle hesitated but still would not stop. I then had to swerve the best I could to the right, but my car still hit the corner of the car in front. This is the third incident with the ABS, but the only one resulting in an accident. The dashboard reads system malfunction. The vehicle is currently in possession of the insurance company.

The CVT transmission in my 2019 Nissan Rogue failed unexpectedly at approximately 45,000 miles, just one year after the factory warranty expired. I first noticed issues on July 4, 2025, when the vehicle began hesitating and jerking in idle and occasionally during acceleration. On Monday, July 7, I drove it to a certified Nissan dealership for inspection, and during that drive, the check engine light came on. The dealership confirmed complete transmission failure. There were no warning lights or messages prior to July 7. The failure made the vehicle unsafe to drive, especially when merging onto highways or crossing intersections. The quoted repair cost was $6,500, which was unaffordable, forcing me to purchase a new Nissan vehicle instead. Nissan declined to offer any goodwill assistance despite the low mileage and known history of CVT issues in similar models.

A light came on and upon looking it up, it states that my breaks needed to be evaluated. I had the brakes replaced in the summer of 2022, but the light didn't go out. I started having problems with the car stopping and hesitating to stop. I took the car in Feb 2023 to Nissan and they said the Electronic Breaking System was going out. In May, I noticed the Parking break didn't light up nor did it stop the car. I took it back to Nissan and they were talking $1300 to replace it. I feel this should be a recall. You need breaks to stop and that is not something that should be going out. My latest invoice for the fix is $1500 out of my pocket. It has to be fixed as my daughter uses the car and I can't afford an accident, insurance, nor funeral cost. The fix is cheaper.
