| Feb 2023 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Last month, January 2023, a light came on indicating there was a malfunction of the brakes. We thought maybe the brakes needed to be replaced. The problem is, we replaced the brakes and rotors in 2021 after an oil change and Nissan stated they were both going bad. This was odd because, when we purchased the car, in June 2019, the car had 34 miles. But at the time we took the car to Nissan, it was due for a State inspection. All NC cars have to be inspected on a yearly basis and that could've failed the inspection. In October 2022, we were hearing a loud squeaking noise and took the car to Nissan. They said we needed new breaks. We waited as the car was going to be sitting for a while. At an oil change in January 2023, the service guy said the brakes needed to be changed. Crazy because the car had 30,000 miles. After changing the brakes the squeaking noise stopped but a "malfunction of the brakes" light came on. Today, February 14, we took it to Nissan who informed us that the Computer Control Unit failure has happened and needed to be replaced. The Nissan Dealership wants $1380.87 AND the part is on backorder. He also stated that we need a new battery because when they ran the test, the battery went dead and had to be recharged. We hadn't been experiencing any issues with the battery, so not sure why that came up. Maybe the computer is reading the battery issue wrong too? We asked if this was a common issue and the service manager stated he had never heard of that happening. I checked for recalls and there are none, but there are many complaints about the brakes with the same issues as ours. Why hasn't there been a recall issued? If this is an issue and this car stops in the middle of the highway, we could be hurt or worse killed. I have a teenager driving this car as it was a graduation gift and now it is a death trap. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2023 | SEATS | The Driver Seat moves back and forth when stopping or starting from a stopped position, turning a corner etc..this is a hazzard. This is a safety issue that Nissan should fix - They have indicated that the car is just out of warranty, so i will have to pay 1730.00 to have the seat track replaced. This should not be something the consumer should have to fix- it is a SAFETY HAZZARD | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2023 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Master Air Sensor: I purchased a 2017 Nissan Rogue: I had the issue, Nissan deemed it a lemon and switched the car to a 2019 Nissan Rogue. I am still paying on it the 2019 car now. Well, the 2019 has the same issue. The car completely stopped on me January 23, 2023 on a hill and was rolling back. It would not start. I had the car towed to the Nissan dealership. It cost me $808.00 and the $100.00 tow for the same issue as the 2017 car. Please have Nissan recall al their 2017 - 2020 cars that they have not built with the sensor fix. This is going to happen to all the cars. You cannot tell me that their is a defect that Nissan has not reported. Also, the automatic brake messes up sometimes and stops my car without their being another car around. SCARY!!! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Nov 2022 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE | On October 14 2022 I was driving my vehicle at about 35mph and came suddenly upon a stop sign. I hit the brakes and skidded through the intersection and collided with a pick up truck going about 15 mph. My rogue immediately caught fire from under the hood and the doors wouldn't open. The person I collided with was the only person amongst a dozen people who was brave enough and cared enough about my life to ram his body repeatedly into the rear passenger window and yanked me out of the car. Within 10 seconds of him doing that the vehicle exploded. I almost lost my life from what would be considered a minor collision due to the unexplained fire and explosion | Crash: Yes Fire: Yes Injuries: 3 Towed Medical attention | Unknown |
| Nov 2022 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | My AEB engaged suddenly while I was driving about 40-45 mph without any other vehicles in front of me. Thankfully there was not a vehicle behind me. I called the dealership and there are no known recalls on my vehicle. They also informed me this was not something that they knew of as being a problem. I was told to make sure the sensor was clear but they would be unable to determine if there was a problem unless they could reproduce it. I am able to turn off this system, but it turns on automatically each time the car is started so I would have to disengage it each time I start my car. This is a dangerous situation as I drive to work on a busy highway in a metropolitan area with many vehicles on the morning/evening commute. I am concerned this could happen again while I am going much faster with cars behind me and this would potentially lead to a serious collision. My car is up to date on inspection. There were no warning lights on at the time of the incident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Oct 2022 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Oct 27, 2022 Driving on a rural road in Rockport MA at approx 3:30p. Driving the speed limit, but slowed as I approached a metal plate in road. The car jerked violently, came suddenly to a complete stop and engine turned off. No warning lights were on prior and none came on after I started the car and continued to drive. Three cars following closely behind me all had to slam on their brakes. Lots of honking! I've had the car since 2019 and have had 3 minor episodes related to the problem where the car had a momentary pullback of forward movement, but NOTHING like this. I took it to the dealership on 9/28/2022 for this problem and Forward Collision Light on. They said, "sensor is blocked". They "cleared the code". | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2022 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,EXTERIOR LIGHTING,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The automatic emergency braking system on my 2019 Nissan Rogue will come on and stop the car dead in its tracks for no reason or no obstruction in the way that should cause this to happen. I feel it is very unsafe as this has now happened to us while driving three times. and one day the warning indicator lights came on, but they don't stay on. It has been checked at Bristol Honda dealership in Bristol TN. and they did confirm that there is a malfunction with the brakes, however they also said they can't fix the problem, and we just purchased the vehicle from them May 30, 2022, just 4 months ago. also, the bright lights turn off and won't stay on but according to the dealership they turn off because it is too bright outside, which is absurd since I only use bright lights at night when it is dark. I feel this is very unsafe and could be deadly if not repaired or replaced. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2022 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | In March 2022, the vehicle’s AEB suddenly engaged for no reason while I was making a left turn at an intersection. Only luck prevented a serious accident. I was able to roll the vehicle to a side road since it shut off. Vehicle was not able to start again after that and had to be towed. Vehicle was taken to the dealership for repair. They claimed to have repaired the entire CPU and replaced parts. They claimed the battery was loose and due to its movements may have pulled. Invoice they provided says otherwise as an AV unit was replaced and a “voluntary recall” for a software update. The car was picked up and costs were covered under warranty. I noted immediately that the vehicle appeared to be operating better. Including sensors and alerts I was unaware the vehicle had. This of course meant the vehicle was sold to me with bad software which it appeared they fixed. Fast forward to September 30, 2022 and once again the software is demonstrating a malfunction. Once again the vehicles AEB sensors are not working, the vehicle is throwing the same codes it has a few months prior. The vehicle will not start. This is a serious safety issue as had I been driving it, the vehicle would’ve again slammed on the brakes in traffic. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2022 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I had a terrible scare last Tuesday morning around 8:30 or 9 on September 13, 2022. I was driving along the hwy going about 35 to 40 mph when my car came to a hard sudden stop in the road I was so scared luckily nobody was behind me or it could have been an accident. couple days later I took it to Fred Anderson Nissan Dealership to get serviced, and the mechanic couldn't find anything wrong with it. I had this car for 2 months and I am afraid to drive it but I don't have another vehicle and I have to get to work. Also I travel on I-40 HWY frequently and I pray to God that it does'nt happen while I'm driving the speed limit which is 60-65. Please contact the dealership and see if they can resolve the problem before its too late. Thanks for your concern. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2022 | SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | 2019 Rogue has around 40k miles. Rear brakes wore through to metal backers at approx 30k miles making it necessary to to replace pads and rotors. I am now replacing brakes again. The dealer refused warranty and said rapid wear is normal for these cars, with some wearing out in as little as 10k miles. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Aug 2022 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | While driving my SUV at approximately 30 mph all the warning lights started flashing on the dash console while sounding warning beeps. The vehicle locked up all the brakes and caused the vehicle to stop violently in a skid and still. The vehicle behind me barely stopped before striking me. The stop was so violent it caused my grandaughter to start screaming uncontrollably. I took the vehicle to Sheehy Nissan in Glen Burnie MD. They claimed they have no idea what is going on and charged me $159 to let me know. I am afraid to drive my vehicle now and definitely won't endanger my granddaughter again. Nissan needs to solve his issue! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2022 | BACK OVER PREVENTION | A numerous occasions, when I put the car into reverse to back out of a porking spot etc The backup sensor on the right side of the car activates as though there's something on that side, when there is nothing there.
