Nissan Rogue owners have reported 301 problems related to automatic emergency braking (under the forward collision avoidance category). The most recently reported issues are listed below. Also please check out the statistics and reliability analysis of Nissan Rogue based on all problems reported for the Rogue.
The screen turns off suddenly while the vehicle is in use. Additionally, the automatic emergency braking (aeb) system is either deactivated or displays as “off” when the car is started. The sudden deactivation of the aeb system compromises the vehicle’s ability to automatically brake in critical situations, increasing the risk of a collision. The screen turning off could also limit access to important vehicle information or controls, further impacting safety. No warning lamps appeared prior to the failure. The issue with the screen and aeb deactivation happens when the vehicle is started, but there were no prior warnings before this started occurring. After so many recalls, I no longer feel safe with this vehicle.

Automatic braking and crash detection alarm failed causing collision with another vehicle, totaling the car. That was the third time it happened. The first two times I was able to get the vehicle under control before collision. Problem was never addressed at a dealership due to scheduling issues. Problem first appeared in may 2025, then in July 2025. Collision totaling the vehicle occurred on August 6, 2025.
The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, the automatic emergency braking system engaged temporarily while there was no other vehicles around, and the vehicle made a beeping sound. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal and continued driving. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle need to be taken in for a diagnostic test. The vehicle was not yet diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure.

Engine seems very weak. Not enough power to safely pass on a highway. Absolutely gutless and sometimes upon acceleration and/or braking it jerks.

I have owned this vehicle since it was new and the collision sensor light would occasionally blink when the weather was cold, damp or foggy. My Nissan tech told me not to worry about it as long as the car was not braking without necessity. About a month ago, the collision sensor light was blinking and shortly thereafter, the front radar (collision avoidance) sensor malfunctioned, warning lights and sound occurred and the aeb system deployed and car was stopped abruptly. There was no traffic and I was able to coast to the side of the road. I placed the car in park and then in drive and car was back to normal operation. Several days later the lane departure warning occurred for no reason but the car did not shut down. I took the car to dick smith Nissan, st. Andrews road, columbia, SC for service. They replaced the collision sensor for a cost of $2300. 00. I called Nissan customer service, received a complaint number ([xxx]) but was told there was nothing Nissan could or would do. This is a problem occurring in many Nissan models over several years. Some of these malfunctioning sensors have been replaced under warranty. Others are part of class action suits in several states. I believe some models have been the subject of recalls. Nissan will not admit that there is a flaw in these sensors and it is a safety issue if the vehicle stalls in heavy traffic or on the interstate. I was lucky that I when my car stalled, I was in town with no traffic and was able to pull off the road. I’m hoping replacing the sensor has solved my problem but it was costly. Ntsb should be aware of this safety issue and document incidents regarding these collision sensors. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
When parking, my car keeps automatically applying brakes. I have turned off this setting yet. It continues to happen. Safety is at risk when my car stops in the middle of the street instead of continuing to back up. Cars following behind me are unaware that my car will randomly break. I have not reached out to a dealer with these concerns and have yet to get an inspection.
1)backup camera freezes. I need to pause the car and wait a minute then it will restart. This happens a couple of times a week. 2)also, there have been several times when going down a hill, my forward collision warning light and sound goes off and it feels like a light emergency brake is applied. (though the dealer told me that I did not have the automatic emergency braking). This occurs for about 2-3 seconds and then stops on it's own. I have never seen anything in the road that would set this off. This has happened about 4 times within the last 6 months or less.
Automatic breaking system shuts off and on. As well as, the reverse camera screen goes blank when putting vehicle into reverse.
Had this car for 2 years no issues. Now all sudden when it rains alittle. An I drive my car an go to back up it slams it breaks on me. I took to Nissan dealership in johnstown told them what was going on and she told me that it had dirty in the sensor. Ok could have been. Well now everytime it rains I have issues an when I back up it slams it brakes. I have got stuck in the middle of the road several times. I’m either gonna get hit or hit someone an Nissan is pretty telling me there is nothing wrong with my car.
It has happened where I am driving on the highway with big vehicle's are next to me and it will brake and take me from 65 miles per hour down to 30 mph quickly . I always hope that no one is in back of me I fear that I will get in a accident for no reason . Please put a recall on this system !.
This system will activate on its own with no warning.
Issues with false activations of emergency braking, Nissan acknowledges issues in technical service bulletins but doesn't feel is enough to create a recall or special coverage even tho is a major safety issue, imagine it happening on the highway, which read it has and there is a semi behind you, could result in death very easily. Brakes will randomly lock up the car to a dead stop out of nowhere and flash bunch of warning lights. Have a friend with a Nissan car that did same thing and caused a major accident with injuries. I am a certified master technician and I find this very concerning and needs to be addressed. Will be having an independent mobile programmer update the software which isnt listed for 2019s in the technical service bulletin only for 17-18. And hope that it never happens again, but that will all be out of pocket.
On Friday, 24 Jan 25, at highway speeds between 60 and 70 mph the automatic emergency braking (aeb) system unexpectedly engaged three times. On Sunday, 26 Jan 25, while in a neighborhood street the aeb engaged unexpectedly at 25 mph. That same day at highway speeds between 60 and 70 mph the aeb system unexpectedly engaged four times. Additionally, on that day the aeb warning light flashed and a chime was heard, but the system did not brake two times. This car was at a Nissan dealer on 2 Dec 2019 for recall 1-p9327 - Rogue aeb ntb19-064 and recall 2 - r1911 - nis av cont unit multi TSB.
I have a 2019 Nissan Rogue. I was driving on the freeway and my emergency breaks went off for no reason. The car in front of me was more than 50 feet away. Thankfully we were in moderate traffic and the car behind me was able to swerve to avoid rear ending me. I searched online and other Rogue owners have had the same problem. Nissan needs to recall the aeb system in these cars. I am glad I have a dash cam and was able to record the incident. I don’t feel safe driving my car knowing this is a common problem.
Car stops abruptly when no objects or cars are in the road - had to push through on the gas to not be hit/cause and accident. • seems to be (ntb19-033f). But no longer/ never active for 2019 Rogue? • can kill someone and cause severe damage to humans and vehicles/property. • has happened twice (June 2024, January 2025) thankfully with no crashes, but very possible. • local dealership says it's not an active recall and > $2000 for repair on Jan 9, 2025 2019 Nissan Rogue sport sl.
More warning lights appearing on dash.
I believe my cars computer is being hacked. Some things I’ve noticed are stereo issues the volume goes up and down or the music skips intermittently. Some times the music turns off. The collision symbol prompts on the dash. Acceleration issues. Antilock breaks don’t work, sometimes. Safety features are being turned off. My maps goes offline. My update for maps in nebraska isn’t listed but all the other states are listed. Awd button doesn’t work, sometimes. I am worried for my safety. I took it to Nissan and they updated the sonar component system. It helped some. Stereo issues are still present. Music is still turning off by itself. Volume is still going up and down and the radio not a cd is skipping intermittently. Nissan stated they have no testing to see if any malware has been installed. I contacted Nissan consumer affairs. They are chosing to do nothing at this time.

At 3 separate times while driving my car just suddenly brakes and one of the times was doing between 40 and 50 with no other car around and suddenly with no warning car starts beeping and comes to an abrupt halt jacking the seatbelt tight and coming to a complete stop then proceeding along as if nothing happened.
While driving 55 mph and coming to a four way intersection the automatic braking system engaged and momentarily applied the brakes. This did not cause an accident because it was brief. It would have caused a serious accident if I were on ice, or turning, or several other situations. The dealerships I called said they new of no such problems with tis model. Yet it's a well documented problem with this model. The warning lamp came on after the incident and comes on often. The problem has not been checked by a dealer since they say it is normal and want to charge to check it out.
On a clear sunny day, while driving around 40 mph with no traffic in front or behind me my automatic emergency braking activated for a instant and then released. If I had been in traffic such as driving through dallas at 70 mph or more, I might have been rear ended. It scared me. I can imagine what a car behind me would have done with the car in front hitting their break for no reason. There was no warning.

While driving one day in November 2024, the master warning light and the automatic emergency braking system off warning light came on. With 2 malfunction warnings: “not available system malfunction with the lane departure warning symbol” and “aeb malfunction”. If you try to use cruise control a loud siren is alerted since these 2 malfunctions are happening. Took it to the Nissan dealership where I bought it and was told there was a lane camera with an open circuit and to replace it when my windshield crack since it was close to $2,000.
Twice the auto braking system has engaged when there was no obstacle to prompt it. Additional electrical issue as well- not recognizing fob and continually dropping the fob pairing.
Hi. I was driving my Nissan car at around 45 to 50 miles per hour and the car abruptly/suddenly stopped in the middle of the road without any warning. I was about to be hit by other cars behind me but thank god that didn’t happen. I am very scared of driving this car now. My kids also drive this car and I am extremely worried about their safety. I am hoping Nissan will do something. Extremely worried and scared.
I was traveling down a busy road just before lunch when I heard a beep then my Rogue braked hard. Thankfully nobody was in front of me or behind me at the time. It was scary.
Twice in the past week (9/11 & 9/14), the aeb has engaged while I was driving (forward) despite no vehicles/objects/people obstructing the path. Yes, it is available for inspection upon request. There was no beeping, no lights on the dashboard, or any other warnings prior to the aeb just abruptly stopping my car. Luckily I wasn't on the highway or going very fast because otherwise it would be extremely dangerous (whiplash, getting rear-ended, serious injury or death of myself or other driver(s), etc. ). I took it to Nissan of downtown la to be looked at 9/14/24 with a 12pm appointment, but they were rude, not accommodating, and ultimately did not inspect it ("the mechanics are all probably at lunch, and it's late now anyway. We close at 4pm. ") I told them specifically what the issue was and that it did not seem safe to just be driving around. Apparently Rogues are infamous for these aeb problems and have been recalled before, but not the 2019s. Entered the VIN on kbb and no recalls currently.
I was drivin during the day with no one in front of me and all of a sudden the car was beeping, an alert flashed on the dash and my car skidded to a stop. The alert flashed so quickly I wasn’t able to see what it was and I had no control over my car. Fortunately no one was behind me.
This is about the 4th incident where when I am driving my car and all of a sudden a message flashes on the dashboard and the car brakes hard, while my foot is still on the gas. There are no other vehicles in front of me or icy roads. I am in the process of bringing to the dealer I purchased it from to run a diagnostics, but from what I have read this issue has been happening a lot with the 2018 models. I do not want to wait until I have an accident for this issue to be acknowledged or repaired.
Twice, while I was driving with no cars in front of me, the emergency brake was released. The first time, cars were behind me abs the second time they were not. I was driving at normal speed down a street both times. This could cause an accident or hurt someone. Approximate date is the second incident. The first incident was a couple of months before.
My Rogue has randomly just gave me a warning and slammed on my breaks without an obstacle in site. Now the malfunction light keeps coming on. This is starting to get very frustrating. I have on this car for 3 years. It only had 19000 miles on it when purchased. It now has 81000. I am afraid this is going to cause a fatal accident.
Aes went off when nothing was around multiple times and has caused my car to lock up the steering wheel, breaks, gas and gear shift causing me to not have any control of my car as the car took over. Due to the automatic brake system went off it cost me to have an accident and ruin my car. Nissan said that they fixed this issue but I have had multiple incidents in the past I have had it break in the middle of oncoming traffic thank god there was no one around there was no accident then. And then it happenee in may of this year and the aes broke my brake system when there was no reason for the aes to come on. July I had gotten into a crash due to the aes again and the airbag didn't deploy when in a crash.
While driving on a clear day on an open road going about 50 mph my car made the emergency alert noise for a forward collision and slammed on the brakes. Nothing was in front of me and the event almost caused an accident.
When driving taking off from a stand still. My Rogue is giving me hesitation. And try’s to stall when accelerating then it starts to jerk real hard and dies sometimes it doesn’t take off from the light. Also the car starts breaking out of nowhere causing to a sudden stop. I’ve had this car less than 2years now I do not feel safe driving it at all.
I have a constant aeb warning light on the dashboard.
The emergency braking engaged the brakes for no reason. Was driving down the road with no other vehicles near me and my vehicle beeped at me and engaged the brakes hard causing a skid. I have read this is a known problem and that Nissan is failing to address this serious safety concern.
