3 Software problem

Failure Date: 05/07/2019

Bought this car be with 42 miles on it. About a month after I bought it the aeb system started activating and slamming the brakes when nothing was in front of me. I had never had a car with this feature before. I later got a notice to bring it in to a deal for an update before the warranty went out. The car is now out of warranty and has begun doing the same thing again. I was driving 65 on the interstate with no traffic or obstacles in front of me. The warning system went off then immediately activates the brakes slowing me down to 40 miles an hour. Thankfully the car behind me was able to react in time to swerve and miss me. I got tje one finger salute from the driver of that vehicle. It is now happening more and more frequently. I was told by dealer that since it is out of warranty I would have to pay for another update. I can't afford to pay that right now. Anyway this is a safety issue that should have been corrected when they did the first update on the aeb software. Purchases from benton Nissan in bessemer, al but have had all service performed by sierra Nissan of sylacauga,al. But I have quit utilizing serra nissa since they put the wrong type of oil in my car and refuses to fix the problem even though they admitted to the mistake also it was printed the servive receipt as proof that they oil they uses was incorrect.

4 Software problem

Failure Date: 04/08/2019

Aeb activates when driving causing vehicle to stop suddenly for no reason. There is nothing to trigger this, vehicle just stops. This has happened 5 times to me. Nissan sent out a notice that there was a software upgrade available to eliminate this from happening. Once software was upgraded, happened 1 time again as I approached railroad tracks. . Took to dealer,vehicle currently has 12,700 miles, dealer unable to duplicate problem. Nissan has acknowledged "no fix" and to return to dealer if problem occurs again. Have filed a complaint with Nissan consumer affairs case #35496726, with no satisfactory resolution. Do not feel safe driving this vehicle.

5 Software problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2018

Tl the contact owns a 2018 Nissan Rogue. While operating the vehicle, the brake assist randomly activated and caused the vehicle to decelerate and/or stop. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a representative was sent to examine the vehicle at priority Nissan (6390 richmond rd, williamsburg, va). The front sensors were replaced and a software update was performed, but the failures continued. Also, while in reverse, the rear sensors malfunctioned and failed to alert that a second vehicle was positioned in the rear, which could cause the driver to back into another vehicle. In addition, while driving with the cruise control engaged and set at 55 mph, the speed would increase on its own while driving on a curved road. The cause of the failures was not determined. The failure mileage was 5,000.
