LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
A warning ⚠️ keep coming up. The only thing I can see according to manual is to take it to a dealership. My blind spot detection is flashing on when nothing is there. When it stops then it's no longer working at all. Every time I go to take it in the dealership is works correctly. My power windows are no longer working as they should either. There is a recall that looks like this same issue on Rogues but my VIN isn't included. When it's diagnosed at auto center nothing comes up even with the ⚠️ showing.

CVT has failed....Drive goes forward reverse goes forward neutral goes forward always gives see drivers warning call maintenance and check manual ... transmission is burning so high the transmission fluid is evaporating.... I've called so many times to have fixed but when it has a warranty they wanted $115 times 3 because of three components in the tranny needed to be checked and I couldn't pay that so now it's a giant paperweight that is used fir storage that I pay 412.32 a month for that cannot be driven....it sputters shakes stutters jerks and slams something gear but will not go up any hill ...I believe that the transmission should have been recalled in this model as well ..

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Automatic emergency braking is malfunctioning. It is available for inspection upon request. The car stops by itself while driving in traffic, putting myself and other drivers at risk. I have brought the vehicle to the dealership twice and they deny the problem. There is no warning leading up to the issue. It is a reoccurring random problem that happens while driving in stop-and-go traffic. When it occurs, the vehicle is paralyzed and I need to shut off the car and restart the car in the middle of traffic. The vehicle started malfunctioning like this approximately 3 years ago and it has become more frequent. It now occurs every time I commute in slow traffic. It is dangerous and there are reports online of many other drivers experiencing the same problem and local news reports.

The collision light came on and everywhere online says it’s a recall but Nissan doesn’t show it as a recall in their system. It states the the car will stop suddenly when light comes on thinking cars are around but nobody is around. It’s not safe. I’m getting it fixed right now but I’m having to pay money because my car isn’t listed as a recall for this.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I am the owner of a 2017 Nissan Rogue SV FWD. Bought the vehicle back in October 2022 with a clear history with no prior accidents reported on the vehicle. Recently while driving to work, my brakes on my 2017 Nissan Rogue suddenly braked or locked up without me pressing the brake pedal. There was no vehicles in ahead of me nor in back of me yet still the brakes engaged. This has caused my 2017 Nissan Rogue to lose traction and hydroplane across the lanes on the freeway and in doing so sending me crashing into the concrete barrier in the medium. It has been raining that day and while it was raining at the time of the incident, me hydroplaning unexpectedly was inevitable. The impact with the concrete barrier send me careening backward to now face the oncoming traffic that were behind me more than two hundred feet away. I look to the dash and discovered the "automatic braking" light on. Not wanting to get struck by oncoming drivers, I managed to move my vehicle to a safe location and turn the engine off. I like to also add that the driver side airbag on the 2017 Nissan Rogue DID NOT deploy from the impact. No drivers or other vehicles were struck damaged or impact from the incident. I have started a claim on the night of the incident and my vehicle is currently being inspected by my insurance agent.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
On many occasions, the AEB (FEB) engages on its own, when there is not vehicle or item in the car's path. This is a safety issue, as it can happen in traffic, which is likely to cause a collision. This week I took the vehicle to Regal Nissan in Roswell, GA and made them aware of the situation. I was told, "This is a technologically advanced vehicle. If dirt or debris is on the front of the vehicle, it can cause the AEB to engage." The dealership said there was a software update to the AEB that they would perform. They did not inspect the AEB system, but said if it happens again bring it back and they will look at it further. When I got in my care to leave, I found a photocopied page (page 5-85) of the owner's manual that they left for me. The highlighted a sections that said: The radar sensor may NOT detect a vehicle ahead in the following conditions: - Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering the radar sensor". Again - it's not that the system is not detecting something in the path of the car, it's that it is engaging on its own. The last time it happened was approximately [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was driving home from work and my car braked really hard without me touching the brake. The dash board light flashed a warning that was red and white and an alarm went off. This is available upon request. My safety was put at risk because this happened as I was accelerating through a green traffic light. There were people behind me who could have slammed into me, endangering me and them. This happened one other time last week but for a short period of time and it barely braked. It has not yet been inspected, but I plan to call my local dealership.

The automatic emergency braking system activated when there was no hazard. it was a full on panic stop with ABS engaging. The event lasted about 2 seconds. There were no other cars near by so there was no incident. This is the first time this has happened and the Rogue was fine for the rest of that drive. the front sensor was free from obstruction when looked at about 10 mins later.

The automatic emergency brake will activate when it's not supposed to. Then it will take several seconds for me to be able to drive again. This has caused me to almost be rear ended several times. I can turn the auto brake system off but it will come back on, on it's own.

The car siezes and stops instantly with a MALFUNCTION that is sensing something that is not present. It has happened over 6 times, within 2 weeks. It has been reported to Twin City Nissan (409)727-2779 three times. Nissan serviced a recall by “reprogramming” on 8-2-2023. The incident has continued to occur. 8-3-2023 a Nissan technician was riding in the car when the MALFUNCTION siezed the car to a stop again. No code was detected on their computer monitoring system at that time. The dealership said they could no longer assist with repairing the defect because they can not even determine what is causing it. It was suggested by the technician that I manually disarm the Emergency Brake System every time I start the car. Service manager told me there was nothing else to be done and wished me “good luck”. I have requested the service information for the follow-up on 8-3-2023. The dealership states the information has not been entered by the Service Manager nor the technician who performed the computer analysis.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
While driving in the rain on July 11, 2023 and for the first time I encountered rain dropping into the inside of my vehicle from several different places in the front windshield of my vehicle. The rain was falling profusely onto the gearshift area which caused me to multitask and try to cover the area to prevent any damage. I was able to get off the expressway and make it to the gas station where I took several pictures and videos. There were no warning lights or signs on my vehicle. There was an additional issue earlier this year when my car would not accelerate over 35-40 mph and when it did the car would shake badly. The car would just randomn make loud sounds and force a hard push before the accelerations. I took it to a Nissan dealership to find out the transmission had to be replaced. While driving the vehicle it steers toward the right. I also have noise from the bottom of the car and it appears there is something loose or dragging which causes making a left or right turn hard.

When I drive my car in the rain the indicator light for the Front Collision Warning comes on and my car tries to break automatically. It has happened a few times, but yesterday it happened while I was driving on the freeway and it caused me to hydroplane across 3 lanes of traffic. Luckily I wasn't hit, but it could have been a very different situation. This is a safety issue and I want to have it fixed, but Nissan is refusing to pay for this.
