THEY STATED THEY CORRECTED IT HOWEVER IT'S STILL SPORADICALLY HAS ACCELERATION LOSE.

MY NEW NISSAN ROGUE HAS ONLY 356 MILES ON IT . UNIVERSAL NISSAN SOLD IT TO ME AND THE CAR'S COMPUTER SEEMS TO BE MALFUNCTIONING. IT SEEMS TO BE A HARDWARE ISSUE AND NOT A SOFTWARE ISSUE AS THEY TRIED UPDATING THE SOFTWARE WITH NO SUCCESS. THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIX THE AUTO SAFETY BRAKE. IT DOES NOT WORK FOR FRONT PEDESTRIANS OR REAR PEDESTRIAN SAFETY. THE VEHICLE ALSO DOES NOT APPLY THE BRAKES IN TIMES OF EMERGENCIES AS IT IS ADVERTISED TO DO SO. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN KILLED IN THE CAR BECAUSE THE COMPUTER IS MALFUNCTIONING AND SPEEDING UP INSTEAD OF APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE CAR IS A DEATHTRAP. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THEY SAID I HAVE TO TALK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I ALSO RECEIVED A MILD CONCUSSION WHEN THE LIFT-GATE SMASHED DOWN ON MY HEAD AFTER I WAS CHECKING OUT THE TRUNK. THE LIFT-GATE WAS OPENING ON ITS OWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN I STOPPED TO CLOSE IT, IT CAME DOWN AND SMASHED ME IN THE HEAD BEFORE I EVEN ACTIVATED IT. ALSO, THE CAR IS BURNING GAS QUITE RAPIDLY. I AM GETTING LESS THAN 16 MILES TO THE GALLON, AND THIS IS MOSTLY FREEWAY DRIVING, EVEN THOUGH IT IS ADVERTISED AT 26 CITY, 31 HWY. . UNIVERSAL NISSAN TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO PUT HIGH LEADED PREMIUM GAS OR I WILL NOT GET GOOD MILEAGE, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT IS CORRECT. THERE WAS ALSO A MYSTERIOUS FIRE BURN BENEATH THE CAR WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I BROUGHT THE NISSAN ROGUE IN TO BE CHECKED BY UNIVERSAL NISSAN SERVICE, AND THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR FOUR DAYS. THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIX THE CAR'S COMPUTER. THE PRO-PILOT ASSIST STEERING CORRECTION, DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE NISSAN'S CUSTOM LEATHER STEERING WRAP FOR THIS MODEL OF ROGUE INTERFERES WITH THE STEERING CORRECTION, YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY SQUEEZE THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE POINT OF EXERTION. I ASKED UNIVERSAL NISSAN TO REFUND MY MONEY, BUT THEY HAVE REFUSED .

ONE SUNNY DAY, DRIVING DOWN THE SERVICE ROAD, A CAR SLOWED TO TURN. I SLOWED, THERE WAS PLENTY OF ROOM BUT ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR MADE AN AWFUL NOISE AND STOPPED SUDDENLY (THERE WERE CARS BEHIND ME). THEN ONE MORNING, MY AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM LIGHT STARTED BLINKING, IT STOPPED WHEN I GOT TO WORK. NOW, ANOTHER MORNING, NO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD AS IT WAS 4:30 IN THE MORNING. THE ROADS WERE CLEAR/DRY. THE LIGHT STARTS BLINKING AGAIN. THIS TIME I STARTED LOOKING INTO IT AND HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS BEING A PROBLEM AND PEOPLES CARS SUDDENLY STOPPING FOR NO REASON BUT YET THEY HAVEN'T FIXED THE PROBLEM OR ISSUED A RECALL?? THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS HASN'T WARRANTED A RECALL. I REALLY HOPE I CAN GET THIS FIXED BEFORE I GET IN AN ACCIDENT OF GOD FORBID, KILLED BECAUSE MY CAR THINKS IT NEEDS TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR INTERSTATE.

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.

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.
