1 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 09/25/2020

The recall service was performed as promised. I do have to add though that shortly after having picked the car up, the automatic emergency braking warning light started to go off occasionally after normally applying the brakes. Then the light would go on at random times without having applied the brakes. I returned the car to the dealership and they mentioned that it was probably a coincident that this happened. I thought that this was suspect though as I never had any issues with the light and the system prior to bringing the car in for the abs module recall. I still feel that something was tweaked or the system's failure was exacerbated by having had work performed on it, despite the abs module being located on the firewall and the aeb sensor located in the front grill. I also have seen on the internet that 2015,2016,2017 and 2018 model year rogues,rogue sport, Muranos, altimas, maximas, leafs, sentras, armada's and pathfinders have all been impacted by aeb issues. The most dangerous, when the vehicle goes into aeb mode for no reason and applies the brakes. There is a class action lawsuit in process now and some TSB's that you have issued for fixes. I have owned or own 4 Nissans since 2010. . . A 2010 Nissan sentra which was recently replaced by a 2019 Nissan sentra and my 2015 Murano which replaced my 2011 infinit g7xs. I have never had any major service issues with any of them with the exception of this most recent $1006. 62 repair which the dealer said would not be covered as it was incidental to the recall repair. I feel the onus is on Nissan to reimburse me for this repair as there is endless proof on the internet that this feature has and will continue to cause problems for the above vehicles it was installed on. Please advise me as to how you intend to handle my issue. Thank you, frank j. Mugnaini 630-290-9053 email fradan@comcast. Net.

2 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 09/23/2020

For the second time my front collision braking system sensor has come on and disengaged my cruise control while I have been traveling at a high rate of speed on the highway. Dealership has confirmed this code when taken into shop. This could cause the car to brake suddenly while driving. Nissan has not issued a recall. I have been quoted over $1200. 00 to fix. This has been reported on many occasions. Why hasn't a recall been issued? I am now afraid to drive my vehicle with this faulty sensor.

3 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 08/31/2020

I purchased this vehicle from the local Nissan dealer in October 2019. Since then, the forward emergency braking system continually turns off within just a few miles of driving the car. This also shuts down the cruise control to the vehicle. I have taken the vehicle back to the Nissan dealership several times where I had to pay for them to replace the radar sensor that controls the system. It did not help and the problem occurs still every single time I drive the vehicle. The only way to re-engage the system is to stop the vehicle and turn off the engine and then start the vehicle back up. This is the same system that has caused numerous problems with the Nissan rogue. The question below is not for when did this happen, it is more of a case of when hasn't this happened? this vehicle is an absolute lemon and should not be available to the public.

4 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 05/17/2019

My barely 3 year old vehicle recently began displaying a warning that the anti collusion system was not functional and I noticed this also disabled and disengaged the cruise control resulting in sudden deceleration . This problem seems to reset when car is started and reoccurs after 15 or 20 minutes driving . I took the car to a Nissan dealership service dept both reps at the desk told me the problem was a recall on the less expensive more common rogue model but not on the Murano which used the very same components and also told me it was very expensive to fix . I searched on line and on numerous sites found it was a very common serious defect with a bosch supplied sensor on the radar . Why are they fixing one model but not the same defect on the Murano . This is a driving safety feature I considered essential to my purchase and when suddenly fails disengaging cruise control presents a very dangerous situation . The manufacturer is well aware of the issue and insists I pay to diagnosis and at this point pay a very large repair bill to repair ,,,,unacceptable !.

5 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2017

Initially the problem start with the active cruise control being intermittent. I would be on and then the system randomly error out and disable at highway speeds. Now currently the aeb system is completely not functional at any speed and I suspect the front radar sensor the system uses is faulty. Lots of research online and many many people have the same issue.

6 Brake Sensor problem

Failure Date: 01/15/2015

The forward emergency braking system warning light comes on (this means the sensor is not working and the emergency warning is not working; further you cannot use cruise control when the light is on). This has been a problem from the beginning of owning the car. The dealer tried many times to repair the problem, all unsuccessful. Next the dealer replaced the sensor, and the problem still exists. The warning light comes on when the vehicle has been driven for a few minutes- 5 to 30 minutes after starting.
