There is a dash light coming on and warning saying “front radar obstruction” causing car to randomly brake, and cruise control not to work. Thought it was originally from a deer I hit March 30, 2025. Replaced sensors, cameras, emblem, checked wiring, recalibrated, multiple diagnostic test all done by more than one person. No one can figure it out even after replacing and testing it’s still happening. Insurance deemed it a coincidence that this started happening after I hit the deer and said problem is not from hitting the deer.
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.
The aeb braking malfunction light keeps coming on, I shut it off but it comes back on. I’m afraid it will do an emergency stop and cause the vehicle behind will hit me. No recall has been done by Nissan. I need help so I will feel safe driving my car.
I was driving and all of a sudden my 2019 Nissan Rogue jerked forward and slowed down in mid traffic. The dashboard lit up with warnings and the vehicle began to idle up over 2 rpm's. Luckily there wasn't much traffic coming, otherwise I would have been in an automobile accident. It really scared me when that happened. I had to pull over and get myself together before pulling back out in traffic to get home.
The problem that the abs system suddenly applies the brakes is back depsite the recall a few years ago on the Nissan Rogues. This happens ont he highway and on back streets at whatever speed. Yes the car is availabel for inspection. It happends when alone or in traffic, no rhyme or reason. I have not had the time to take it to the dealer yet to investigate. The light may come on or the car brakes itself slightly causing the car to swerve or pitch. This has happened daily last week and this week. This can cause someone to have an accident and endanger the lives of others. There is no warning, the light either comes on or the brakes are applied all of a sudden.
Automatic emergency braking system error codes keep randomly coming on and the vehicle brakes on its own while driving. I’ve already had the sensor replaced previously.
While driving, the front collision warning activated, immediately followed by the automatic emergency brake system activating. This made my car break suddenly, attempting to stop in the middle of traffic without warning. There was nothing in front of me that could have activated the systems. This occurred twice in the past week.
Aeb warning light came on while driving and there was no object in sight. The light remained on the car was driving sporadically. Did not know what was wrong until I got home and looked at my manual. This was the 1st time it happened and it was frightening. This occurred 5/1/24.
I was driving at around 20 mph when the aeb warning light came on, a malfunction light came on, and the vehicle brakes locked up. I put the vehicle into neutral and shut it off. I then started it back up. The malfunction light was still on, the aeb warning light was still on. I was able to put it in drive and move it. I'm terrified if this happens again especially if I am on the highway when it happens. I took the vehicle to the dealer and they said they don't know why it happened and can't explain the warning lights.
Hello: we bought the vehicle in 2021. After a few months, we noticed that the vehicle braked itself: meaning it auto-braked while driving at 25mph on the road. We took the vehicle to the dealer for repair. They said, "the vehicle was absolutely fine and perhaps something in the way of the vehicle triggered braking". I, the driver replied, I didn't have any vehicles either in front of or behind me. And besides, I understand the "safety features" and functionalities. Yet, they gave me the vehicle without repair. After a few months, same thing happened: the vehicle auto-braked or braked itself without me the driver putting my foot on the brakes. This time I also called the company's consumer affairs who said they'd help. The consumer affairs worked with the dealer. The dealer now said, "yes the vehicle indeed had auto-braking issues and it could be fixed, and that they'll fix it". So, I, now assured that the vehicle was a 100% fine when it came to auto-braking had been driving the vehicle until today April 16th, 2024, when while driving out on the city in 25mph the vehicle auto-braked again! I emailed the dealer and also called the company's consumer affairs (at their headquarters) to keep them in the loop today, and expect to hear back from them. In this instance, (3rd in 2-3 years), I'm not sure whether the dealer will brush aside the problem as "nothing" as in the first instance, or purport to "fix the issue" without actually fixing it, as in the second instance. At any rate, it came down to a "matter of principle": meaning since I'm not sure if the vehicle's intrinsic defect will be "resolved completely ever", I have to report it to "governing authorities". I hope you will take it from here and do the needful. Thank you in advance for your support.
My emergency breaking system breaks on its own this has been happening since I got the car I went back to the dealership a few months later and they didn’t help me in the slightest I have been turning the breaking system off everyday for years and I shouldn’t have to do that I am paying a loan on a car that is going to kill me… I forgot to turn it off the other day and I stopped when I was going 60 mph this is unsafe and unreasonable for Nissan to not assist me by either taking this out of the car, giving me a new car or reimbursing me. This car is going to kill me.
