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.
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 w…

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.
I have reported to my dealer (the Marlboro Nissan/MA on [XXX] 2024 XXXPM) the dangerous situation that keeps my Rogue (vin: XXX) at a lower gear (the car cannot go more than 20 MPH... in the highway this is very slow) after standing still in a traffic jam for a while on a hot day (specially after a traffic jam is cleared).

I have reported to my dealer (the Marlboro Nissan/MA on [XXX] 2024 XXXPM) the dangerous situation that keeps my Rogue (vin: XXX) at a lower gear (the car cannot go more than 20 MPH... in the highway this is very slow) after standing still in a traffic jam for a while on a hot day (specially after a traffic jam is cleared). I'm concerned this can cause an accident and Nissan is doing nothing to resolve this risky car issue. There is no indication in the dashboard and even though we have reported this problem to the dealer twice, they have done nothing. Nissan should be held accountable for not resolving this design/manufacturing issue. Additional INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Driving on the highway with nothing in front of me when unexpectedly the emergency braking activated. This has happened twice since buying this vehicle new in 2019
My son financed a nissan rogue sport in Aug of 2023. He was in an accident in Nov of 2023. I have not spoken to him since. He spoke with some of my family members, told them the accident was his fault and he doesn't understand what happened. He said he just lost control while driving.

My son financed a nissan rogue sport in Aug of 2023. He was in an accident in Nov of 2023. I have not spoken to him since. He spoke with some of my family members, told them the accident was his fault and he doesn't understand what happened. He said he just lost control while driving. I'm thinking it was the key fob, he's a very tall boy and the crash could have been a result of hitting the key fob while driving. I'm hoping there is a way to find that out. The dealership we got the car from Wjk Tempe Dodge. 7975 S Autoplex Loop Tempe AZ 85284-1023. I tried calling them to get some info but got no responses. The vehicle is totaled and sits on the side of my home with a tarp over it. It has not had any type of assessments by insurance company because I am excluded from policy and registration. The police report# is [XXX]. Please help. My son's contact info is [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] He is the primary driver of the vehicle, I am the primary buyer of the vehicle. [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] .

On December 18, 2023, on the Masspike, inbound, at the morning rush hour, the traffic was in a hard stop for more than 1 hour (moving very slow bumper to bumper), after the Brighton exit, whatever the reason of the traffic jam cleared and all the car speeded up... My Nissan Rogue Sport accelerated a bit but them came to a very low speed (~ 10 mph). I checked whether I was in the right gear (it was: D), checked whether there was any dashboard error sign (there was not!); the car was very slow at a moment when all the cars near me where rushing. I truly though I could get rammed in the rear by cars trying to get to their destination. All cars were honking because I was at a very low speed (and I put on the emergency lights). I took the car for service at the Marlborough Nissan (740 Boston Post Rd E. Marlborough, Massachusetts 01752) today (December 26 2023), but they claimed there was nothing wrong with the car. I can tell you that if Nissan does nothing to solve this problem, other cars of their brand will have a big problem. I don't know what the problem is, but there are several post in Internet claiming this is a big issue: [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] Please address this situation to Nissan, because they are denying any wrongdoing, even though that this is a design issue in their system.

Driving through an intersection that was empty. One car was 1,000 feet away in the other lane. The ABS warning and triangle displayed on dashboard. Simultaneously the brakes engaged coming close to a full stop. No car near by. Then the brakes disengaged and we were able to drive with no further issues.
My car has flashed its automatic brake warning and initialized automatic brakes several times in my 10 months of ownership. This has happened when there has been no obstructions around the car. The car will beep, flash and brake in less than a second and will continue to brake for a second or 2. The car does not completely stop…

My car has flashed its automatic brake warning and initialized automatic brakes several times in my 10 months of ownership. This has happened when there has been no obstructions around the car. The car will beep, flash and brake in less than a second and will continue to brake for a second or 2. The car does not completely stop but it is jarring and could be dangerous if there was a car behind me or if there are ice/weather conditions that are on the road. I have not taken the car in for this issue specifically, but I would be open to have it inspected and go from there. I’ve seen that other Rogue Sports have had similar happenings, and I’m worried that mine will completely stall or cause a crash. This incident has happened about 10 times. I’ve listed the latest date below.
Official recalls
223V093000 · Electrical SYSTEM:IGNITION:ANTI-THEFT:IMMOBILIZER/PROXIMITY:KEY/SENDER
Feb 16, 2023
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014-2020 Rogue and 2017-2022 Rogue Sport vehicles equipped with a jackknife style ignition key. The jackknife key may collapse into a folded position while driving.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Driver contact with a key in the collapsed position could inadvertently shut off the vehicle while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if the vehicle shuts off while driving, the air bags may not deploy in a crash as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Dealers will insert a spacer into the key slot of the jackknife key, free of charge. Interim notification letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed March 29, 2023. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 30, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R22C5.
19V654000 · Back Over Prevention: Sensing System: Camera
Sep 12, 2019
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Nissan Altima, Armada, Frontier, Kicks, Leaf, Maxima, Murano, NV, NV200, Pathfinder, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Sentra, Titan, Titan Diesel, Versa Note and Versa Sedan vehicles, as well as Infiniti Q50, Q60, QX30 and QX80 vehicles. Additionally included are 2019 Nissan GT-R and Taxi and Infiniti QX50, QX60, Q70, Q70L vehicles. The back-up camera and display settings can be adjusted such that the rear view image is no longer visible and the system will retain that setting the next time the vehicle is placed in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rear Visibility."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The lack of an image in the back-up camera display increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners in phases, having dealers update the back-up camera settings software, free of charge. The recall began November 11, 2019 and all affected VINs should be activated. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or INFINITI customer service at 1-800-662-6200.
