3 occurrences of AEB activating with no danger around, 1x when I was pulling into the driving pressing the brake about a month ago and was almost stopped, it suddenly seized to a halt like I had pressed the emergency brake, which I hadn't. 2x it occurred this morning as I was backing up to park next to the curb, there was nothing around and I was in the green sensor line to the curb and have never experienced it backing up yet, again it seized to a halt like the emergency brake had been applied, awful and scary.

With no prior issues, while accelerating from a full stop, the AEB system engaged on a clear roadway. I was traveling no more than 20 mph.

With no prior issues, while accelerating from a full stop, the AEB system engaged on a clear roadway. I was traveling no more than 20 mph. The front collision warning beeped, warning lights on the dashboard flashed, the ABS rumbled and slowed my vehicle. There was absolutely nothing on the roadway to trigger this. It was daylight and the road was dry and clear. There were no vehicles, pedestrians or even animals in my path. Had there been another vehicle behind me, I could have been rear ended. I've made an appt at the dealer and will have this looked into ASAP.

THE 1ST ISSUE WAS ON 01/25/20 WHEN THE FRONT AEB MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. I IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULED TO GET THE VEHICLE INTO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY FOUND CODES C1A16-97 & B2724-23 AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A FAULTY SONAR CONTROL UNIT, WHICH HAD TO BE ORDERED AND WAS EVENTUALLY REPLACED ON 03/04/20. THE AEB SYSTEM WORKED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR, THEN IT STOPPED WORKING AGAIN! I CALLED THE SERVICE ADVISOR AND MADE HIM AWARE OF THE ISSUE. I TOOK IT UP AND TOOK A ROAD TEST WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER, AND SHOWED HIM EXACTLY HOW CLOSE I GET TO A VEHICLE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME, AND NOT HITTING THE BRAKE, AND THE SYSTEM DID NOT GIVE ANY VISUAL OR AUDIBLE WARNING. I DROPPED THE VEHICLE OFF ON 3/10/20 AND THEY CHECK IT OUT. I WAS TOLD, THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE CONCERN, AND THE SYSTEM IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE, THE SYSTEM STILL WAS NOT WORKING. AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS, IN WHICH THE SYSTEM DID NOT WORK, OUT OF THE CLEAR BLUE, DRIVING TO WORK IN MODERATE TRAFFIC ONE MORNING, THE AEB SYSTEM BEGAN WORKING AS IT DID WHEN NEW, AND WORKED UNTIL AROUND 7PM ON 10/27/20, WHEN AS I WAS TRAVELING AT 40 MPH ON A HIGHWAY, AND NO VEHICLES AHEAD OF ME IN MY LANE, OR ALONG SIDE OF ME, THE TRAFFIC LIGHT WAS GREEN, AND AS I STARTED TO GO THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, THE AEB SYSTEM ACTIVATED, STOPPING MY VEHICLE FAIRLY QUICKLY, THEN RELEASED, AND I WAS ABLE TO PROCEED. I IMMEDIATELY, LOOKED IN MY REAR-VIEW MIRROR, AND LUCKILY, THE VEHICLE DIRECTLY BEHIND ME, WAS A DISTANCE AWAY, OR I POSSIBLY COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED. TOTAL B.S NISSAN IS ALLOWED TO DRAG THEIR FEET ON THIS LONG ONGOING ISSUE! I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER ON 10/30/20 TO HAVE THEN CHECK THE ISSUE, AND AGAIN, TOLD TECH DROVE VEHICLE, AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE CONCERN. I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE, EVEN AFTER THIS ISSUE, IT WAS THE SAME RESPONSE, UNABLE TO DUPLICATE CONCERN.

23V093000 · 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.

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.
