I have a 2020 Nissan Rogue and I was driving down an empty Rogue and the automatic breaking system light kept coming on. This is very dangerous and if it automatic break when I am in the highway. I noticed more than 800 complaints have already been submitted for this issue, but Nissan is not doing anything about it. They need to do a recall before someone gets hurt or killed.

39 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 12/08/2020

My daughter was driving her new 2020 Nissan Rogue sport during the day. Her brakes engaged at full strength and the car came to a jolting stop. There was nothing in front of her and luckily nothing behind her. This is a severe safety issue that deserves a recall! I have read that at least 1400 other Rogue owners have reported this problem. Why no recall?!.

Within two months of purchasing a brand new vehicle the car started breaking and came to a full stop without any reason. Both incidents happened in broad daylight with no hazardous conditions on the road.

41 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 11/20/2020

This vehicle was purchased brand new on June 2020. First incident was in November 2020 I was driving at 55mph on a highway and all of the sudden the emergency brake was turned on and my car came to a complete stop and the car started beeping letting me know of the possible collision. There was clearly nothing in front of me but thanks to this incident I came so close to causing a monstrous chain effect of an accident and could have been fatal if someone would have rear ended me given the speed everyone is traveling and my car suddenly stopping. I took my car to the dealership it was purchased from and they "did a software update" and replaced the electric module of the car. Since that incident I am very fearful that it'll happen again. It's terrible that I'm driving a care I don't even feel safe in and still paying. Also there's this noise coming from the back axel's they sound like if there braking apart very loud and every time I back up they can even be heard and it turns heads and its terrible again I'm embarrassed of the loud noise of it and took it to the dealership all they can say is "cant hear and cant fix issue since its non-existent". Also the radio randomly will shut off and power on at any time then speakers start to sound like if someone dropped water inside of them! and again the dealerships response "no issue at the time of service" and there recommendation is to record it on my phone when it happens. Well I cant do that if I'm driving. This car is the definition of a lemon. Not happy of the purchase and wouldn't recommended this vehicle to anyone.

42 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 11/04/2020

My 2020 Nissan Rogue I only had about 3 days and I was driving turning out of a church parking lot and it cut off on me. I tried to crank it and it would not crank. The check engine light was also on. Had to have it towed. The second 2020 Nissan Rogue I got from the same dealership, I have been having issues with the Feb/aeb light coming since September. No one, no animals, no fog, no rain, no other cars are near me when this light kept coming on, that I have video of. Had it looked at at two different Nissan dealerships one found past codes in oct and the other on 11/3 said everything was perfectly fine nothing was wrong. On 11/4 I was driving about 35-40 miles per hour on a city street and my car just braked on me out of no where. And a red/orange light with a car in the middle with a sound wave type symbol blinked on the dashboard and when off before I knew it. It was terrifying and thankfully no one was hurt because our heads flew forward and this could have caused an accident. No cars were in front of me during this time, but there were some behind me that could have hit me and caused a major accident. The dealerships are aware and so is Nissan consumer affairs, but I am still being told it is okay to drive this unsafe vehicle because there are no codes that the computer can find.

43 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 10/31/2020

Purchased my care in September of 2020. Shortly, after having my car I noticed this orange light flash in dash. I was able to capture a picture. Then, I sent it to my car salesman. He stated that he did not know what it was. So, it has done this several times since then. I researched this light and found out that it is the braking system. Even when there is nothing in the presence of the car it will appear. This is a scary thing.

44 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 10/30/2020

Aeb light flashes on and off at random driving times. Sent in for inspection no code generated but have videos of each one. Safety feature that is no longer a safety feature, but a hazard to self and others while driving. When ur car stops would be my #1 one indicator especially on the freeway and at random times= accident, the possible death of self and others! no, the dealer cant no regenerate the code. No other inspection except the local dealer. No other warnings. Light just randomly appeared 2 days after the purchase of the car, a few months later, etc same pattern. Was informed weather, then dirt. Not sure how a person can avoid weather; fog, condensation, moisture. Or bugs hitting ur windshield or review mirrors while driving. I would have to bubble wrap my car for that and those things not to possibly effect this sensor.
