THREE TIMES I HAVE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 35 - 45 MPH WITH NO OBSTRUCTIONS OR VEHICLES WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY BEEPED THE COLLISION WARNING AND AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED THE BRAKES AND ALMOST COMPLETELY STOPPED THE VEHICLE. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED ON TWO OCCASIONS BY THE VEHICLE THAT WAS BEHIND ME AS THERE WAS NO REASON TO STOP. I BROUGHT INTO DEALERSHIP TWO TIMES AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY CODES AND THEY CLEANED OFF THE CAMERA AREA (I KEEP THE CAR RELATIVELY CLEAN). THEY TOLD ME TO TURN OFF THE PROXIMITY ALERT SYSTEM TO HELP PREVENT THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH NISSAN'S COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RESOLVED. MY WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS SHE WAS WITH ME TWICE WHEN IT HAPPENED. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL OR SOMETHING AS NISSAN IS NOT FIXING THE ISSUE OR INVESTIGATING THE PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE HAD BETWEEN 3,000 AND 9,000 MILES WHEN THESE EVENTS OCCURRED.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE WITH 73 MILES ON IT, IT NOW HAS 10,700. MY MAIN COMPLAINT IS REGARDING THE HYBRID/GAS TRANSITION WHEN DRIVING. MY SECONDARY COMPLAINT IS HOW THE VEHICLE DRIVES WHILE IN REVERSE. THE FIRST COMPLAINT, I THINK, MAKES THIS VEHICLE UNSAFE IN A LOT OF DRIVING SITUATIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, TO LEAVE MY NEIGHBORHOOD I HAVE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ONTO A ROAD WITH A BLIND CORNER. WHEN I AM READY TO GO, I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE REACTS AS I EXPECT AND MAKES THE TURN NO PROBLEM. HOWEVER, ABOUT 75% OF THE TIME, I HIT THE GAS AND THE CAR IDLES FORWARD INTO THE OPPOSING LANE AND ABOUT 1-1.5 SECONDS LATER THE ENGINE CATCHES UP AND ACCELERATES AS EXPECTED. I'VE COME CLOSE TO BEING TBONED IN JUST THIS INTERSECTION AT LEAST 4 TIMES BECAUSE OF THAT DELAY. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE CAR WILL OCCASIONALLY LEAP AHEAD NO MATTER IF I'M PRESSING THE GAS OR THE BRAKE. THE INTERFACE BETWEEN GAS AND HYBRID ON THIS VEHICLE IS HORRIBLE, AND NOT LIKE THE ONE I TEST DROVE BEFORE THIS ONE WAS DELIVERED. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE IS SO UNSAFE THAT I DON'T LET MY 16 YEAR OLD DRIVE IT BECAUSE THE DRIVER ALWAYS HAS TO BE ON THEIR TOES FOR THESE ISSUES. I'VE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO ADVANTAGE NISSAN IN BREMERTON, WA TWICE OVER THESE ISSUES AND THEY TELL ME IT'S OPERATING WITHIN NORMAL RANGE AND THIS IS NORMAL. NORMAL OR NOT, ITS UNSAFE. I CAN PROVIDE MANY MORE EXAMPLES OF THIS BEHAVIOR FROM THE VEHICLE, JUST CONTACT ME! THE SECONDARY ISSUE HAS TO DO WITH HOW THE VEHICLE ACTS WHILE IN REVERSE. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE IT EXACTLY, BUT WHEN REVERSING AT ANY SPEED THE RIDE IS VERY JERKY, LIKE A PERSON REVERSING IN A MANUAL TRANSMISSION THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE HANG OF THE CLUTCH YET. IT'S WORSE WHEN BACKING DOWN MY STEEP DRIVEWAY, POSSIBLY DUE TO THE HILL ASSIST FEATURE! PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

2PE19010 · False Automatic Emergency Braking
Opened Sep 9, 2019 · No close date supplied
Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking
NHTSA received a defect petition (DP19-001) from the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) on March 21, 2019 alleging that the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system on Model Year (MY) 2017-2018 Nissan Rogue and Rogue Sport vehicles was engaging in cases where there was no obstruction in the path of the vehicle. The CAS petition additionally alleges that, based on Nissan's actions, the manufacturer is aware of the issue due to issuing a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) launching two "Quality Actions," and initiating a "Customer Service Initiative" in relation to it. CAS contends that Nissan's actions do not represent an adequate long-term solution to the problem, as the action is only available during the basic coverage period of the warranty. CAS also argues that the alleged failures are an unreasonable risk to safety and views Nissan's communications as not acknowledging the potential safety issue involved, instead treating the alleged problem as a performance update.The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) analyzed Vehicle Owner Questionnaire (VOQ) complaints received from consumers and identified a total of 129 unique subject vehicle reports (for all submission dates) alleging a false positive triggering of AEB. Of these complaints, three were identified that contained allegations of a collision resulting from the activation of the system, and all three indicating related injuries.In response to ODI's April 15, 2019 Information Request letter, Nissan provided data indicating that it has received 750 unique subject vehicle complaints relating to false positive activation of the AEB system. Of these complaints, 12 were identified that contained allegations of a collision resulting from the activation of the system. Four complaints contained allegations of injuries, three of which were the result of a collision. These complaints included duplicates of complaints that ODI received. The injury allegations were limited to soft tissue type injuries such as whiplash and bruising.Based on its review of the information identified to date, ODI has granted the petition and is opening this preliminary evaluation in order to evaluate the cause, scope and frequency of AEB false positive activations, as well as to evaluate the suitability of the manufacturer's campaign to address the concern or improve performance of the AEB system. The complaints cited can be viewed at NHTSA.gov under the following ODI identification numbers: 11230875, 11230481, 11230361, 11229400, 11229302, 11229294, 11228994, 11223074, 11222925, 11222644, 11220499, 11218713, 11218608, 11217157, 11210334, 11210256, 11210148, 11209127, 11209032, 11207333, 11205931, 11205717, 11205661, 11205172, 11205124, 11205027, 11204803, 11204349, 11204324, 11196805, 11196561, 11196466, 11196091, 11195938, 11195574, 11194380, 11193989, 11192761, 11192283, 11192063, 11190855, 11190840, 11189976, 11187374, 11186903, 11185890, 11185883, 11185132, 11183406, 11180813, 11174713, 11173666, 11173302, 11172299, 11171331, 11170989, 11165434, 11164646, 11162898, 11162502, 11162396, 11161413, 11161230, 11155985, 11155209, 11155181, 11154181, 11153607, 11153334, 11151373, 11151028, 11142595, 11142557, 11142386, 11141775, 11141433, 11141387, 11141347, 11140604, 11139711, 11139226, 11133402, 11132376, 11130998, 11130662, 11129949, 11128704, 11124099, 11123564, 11123353, 11123321, 11122783, 11119475, 11119300, 11118604, 11115088, 11113479, 11113371, 11112371, 11111659, 11111057, 11110919, 11110689, 11104075, 11103844, 11103437, 11102715, 11102333, 11100117, 11099313, 11091006, 11089960, 11089798, 11089533, 11088815, 11088718, 11081072, 11079453, 11073644, 11072718, 11065505, 11061598, 11057739, 11056061, 11055766, 11048349, 11035301, 11033225, and 10972343.
