WHILE DRIVING ACROSS AND PARTICULAR SET OF INLAID RAILROAD TRACKS, THE ROGUE BEEPS AT ME AND THEN SLOWS DOWN OR SOMETIMES STOPS DUE TO THE FORWARD EMERGENCY BRAKE (FEB) FEATURE. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE I FIGURED OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. I'VE SINCE RESORTED TO TURNING OFF THE FEATURE WHILE DRIVING TO AVOID HAVING MY CAR STOP SUDDENLY. HOWEVER, THIS PAST WEEKEND AFTER FORGETTING TO TURN THE FEATURE OFF (WHICH YOU HAVE TO DO EVERY TIME YOU START THE CAR), MY FEB DEPLOYED AS WELL AS THE ABS LIGHT, THE SLIP LIGHT, AND THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN NOTHING WAS IN THE ROAD. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MOVE THE CAR TO SAFETY, THE FEB KEPT ON SLOWING ME DOWN AND THE BRAKES FELT AS IF THEY WERE GRINDING THE ENTIRE DRIVE. I TRIED TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES TO SEE IF THE SYSTEM WOULD RESET ITSELF, BUT IT WOULDN'T. I CALLED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE IT CURRENTLY STILL IS. THEY HAVE YET TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO RESOLUTION YET.

2017-NISSAN ROGUE SPORT; DRIVING ON HWY 41, THE ROGUE LOSES POWER/POWER FAILURE AND ALMOST COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE ROGUE THEN COMES BACK UP AND CONTINUES UP HWY 41. THE REAR STOP LIGHTS DID NOT COME ON WHEN THE POWER WENT DOWN. I WAS ON A 5 LANE HWY AND COULD HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND. ALSO, WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR SINCE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE. IN SPEAKING WITH THE DEALERSHIPS, THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO AUTONATION NISSAN THEY KEPT IT FOR TWO DAYS. WHEN I PICKED THE ROGUE UP FROM THEIR CALL, IT DID NOT AND HAS NOT DRIVEN THE SAME; I EXPLAINED THIS TO THE TECH. WHEN HE TEST DROVE IT WITH US, HE GUNNED IT GOING UP A HILL, THE ENGINE JUST RACED, THE CAR DID NOTHING. HE IMMEDIATELY TURNED TO A DOWNHILL RD AND TOOK THE CAR BACK TOT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHICH I'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS BEFORE WITH NISSAN. EVERYONE AT THE DEALERSHIPS WANTS TO SAY AND TALK ABOUT ELECTRICAL ISSUES, FIRST THING THE CHECK. I SPOKE WITH A PERSON AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT ADVISED THEY DO WHAT NISSAN TELLS THEM TO DO. SO IT APPEARS THE SAFETY ISSUE CONTINUES, NISSAN HAS THE RESET THE COMPUTER TO NEW SETTINGS AND THE PROBLEMS AND SAFETY ISSUE IN OUR OPINION IS NEVER ADDRESSED. I NOW HAVE A 2017 ROGUE SPORT WITH SAFETY ISSUES AND SOUNDS LIKE AN OLD CAR ON ITS LAST LEG AFTER THE DEALERSHIP IS DONE WITH IT. ITS TIME NISSAN STEPS UP TO THE PLATE AND FIXES THE PROBLEM.

WHEN YOU CROSS OVER RAILROAD TRACKS THAT HAVE OVERHEAD ELECTRICAL POWER; IE. COMMUTER RAIL TRACKS IN URBAN / SUBURBAN MARKETS; THE FRONT END COLLISION CAMERA THINKS YOU ARE ABOUT TO HAVE A "FRONT END" COLLISION, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NO OBJECTS IN FRONT OF YOU. THE SUV WILL STOP DEAD IN ITS TRACKS AND THE STALL OUT. WHEN FIRST REPORTED TO NISSAN IN EARLY DECEMBER , 2017 THEY STATED THAT I WAS ONLY THE 4TH CASE NATIONALLY TO REPORT THIS & THE FIRST THE DALLAS, TX GENERAL MARKET AREA. AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION, THEY PULLED MY VEHICLE IN MID-JANUARY AND PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR. THEY CLAIMED THERE WAS A SOFTWARE GLITCH THAT HAS ONLY BEEN REPORTED IN THE SAME MAKE, MODEL & YEAR AS MY SUV. THEY BELIEVE THE FRONT END CAMERA IS NOT PROPERLY INSULATED FROM THE OVER HEAD ELECTRICAL MAGNETIC FIELD GENERATED BY OVERHEAD POWER LINES ON THE RAIL TRACKS. MY SUV HAS STALLED OUT TWICE AT THE SAME RAIL CROSSING. LAST WEEK I WAS INFORMED THERE WERE OVER 40 CASES NATIONALLY REPORTED AND ABOUT 5 CASES IN THE DALLAS MARKET, INCLUDING FORT WORTH. THEY FURTHER STATED THAT SEVERAL VEHICLES ARE MORE "OCCURRENCES" THAN MINE. NEITHER THE DEALERSHIP OR NISSAN THEMSELVES WILL NOT COMMUNICATE ANY OPINIONS IN WRITING TO ME. THIS IS MY OPEN CASE #[XXX], [XXX] . YOU MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800 NISSAN-1, #7. MY NUMBER IS [XXX],OR [XXX] I HAVE NOT HAD THE USE OF MY VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 50 DAYS. IN MY OPINION NISSAN HAS BEEN BOTH VAGUE & EVASIVE WITH THEIR RESPONSE AND COURSE OF ACTION. IN ADDITION, THEY ARE NOT SURE IF THIS PROBLEM AT ALL. MY CONCERN IS; "IF NISSAN CAN NOT VALIDATE THE PROBLEM; HOW CAN THEY VALIDATE THE FIX AND WILL IT WORK"?

PE19010 · 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.
