While driving the car, sometimes the collision light will come on and the car will automatically start braking even though there are no cars around

Jul 11, 2025

The Forward Collision Warning Light keeps flashing on the dash. It will not go away. It came on randomly. The FCW sensor looks okay from a quick glance. Wanting Nissan to issue a recall for this super common and annoying issue that puts us at risk for random breaking.

Apr 07, 2025

On a clear sunny day, while driving around 40 mph with no traffic in front or behind me my Automatic Emergency Braking activated for a instant and then released. If I had been in traffic such as driving through Dallas at 70 mph or more, I might have been rear ended. It scared me. I can imagine what a car behind me would have done with the car in front hitting their break for no reason. There was no warning.

Dec 21, 2024

When driving the forward collision warning will flash and beep and immediately brake and causes the car to come to a complete stop, when there is nothing in front of the car. It could cause an accident. I believe the forward collision warning sensor has failed. This has happened several times and it’s not safe for me or others around. I’ve started turning off the forward collision to avoid being in a accident.

I am writing what I think is a safety issue on a 2020 Nissan Rogue S. Left my house to go to a local store. When I park, I normally press the internal lock button and not the lock button on fob. I exited the vehicle and closed the door. Came back to vehicle, for some reason I just grabbed the door, not using the key fob, nor the ignition key to enter, and the driver side door opened. I questioned myself what just happened. I did not think much of it. Well I made another stop. I parked, pressed internal button, exited and closed door. I came back and pull driver side door handle and the door was unlocked again. So while parked I tried to diagnosis why the door was unlocked again. I used the internal lock button first, all but the driver side door lock, I used the lock button on the key fob, same thing. tried the ignition key, it would lock and unlock. So when I got home I tried to get it to work again, but to no avail. I tried looking in the vehicle setting, watch you tube videos etc. I even disconnected and reconnected the battery. Nothing worked, Got online and saw a lot of people were having the issue due to door lock actuator failing on Rogues. So I called my nearest Nissan dealership and told them my problem. They could get me in on July 17, 2025 at 8:00 a.m. and it would take several hours to diagnosis. The diagnosis was the actuator failed but power was going to it. To fix it it will cost $905. This is why I am writing you. I think it is a safety issue that needs to be address. If people don't know the vehicle is unlocked there could be some of type of thief or a person could be in your car when you returned. If the door was in the locked position while in the vehicle and you need to get out in an emergency you have to exit another door, which you might not have enough time to do so. If you are trying to enter the vehicle for an emergency and the door stays locked that a safety issue. This is a safety issue and should be recalled. Thank you for your time.

Key FOB and door lock/unlock function failure. Driver side rear door is locked and cannot be unlocked with FOB or manually. In an emergency a passenger in that seat position could be in a life threatening situation. Problem noted on 07/07/2024 (Sunday) and has not been reported to dealership yet. No one has inspected vehicle as of 07/07/2024. There had been one incident a few days previous where driver door would not unlock via FOB or from front passenger lock switch. Door was finally opened by passenger reaching across and hitting door switch on driver side. No warning lamps noted during these events.

On May 17, 2024 my 2020 Nissan Rogue malfunctioned after the ignition button was pressed to start the car, and burst into flames. 1.What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Unknown but fire began in the upper left quadrant area of engine. 2.How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? It was a fire with the potential to cause an explosion. 3.Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?No. 4.Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Car inspected by insurance. Manufacturer was notified. 5.Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Once the ignition button was pressed a barrage of warning lights came on including: brake failure, headlight failure, chassis control failure. The smell of smoke was detectable immediately.

Fire: 1

The rear windshield of my car blew out overnight. Police came and determined there was no vandalism, it blew out. My car had been parked for at least 12 hours, with no shifts in temperature. Upon doing a google search and speaking to people on message boards, it seems this is quite a common issue on this car, with the damage presenting in the exact same way. Two holes on either side of the windshield with everything else shattered. Thankfully I wasn't driving at the time, but I did speak to one person who was. I attempted to speak with Nissan but they told me it was not under warranty and basically not their problem. No warning indicators or anything else that would have warned of issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

11 complaints

Our 2020 Nissan Rouge SV has experienced a failure of the driver door electric door actuator. It will not lock using the electric door lock buttons inside the car, the button on the exterior door handle, or using the FOB. The result is that you think the car is locked, but the driver door is NOT locked and opening the door causes the car alarm to go off (the car thinks it is locked). The lock can be manually locked and unlocked using the manual actuator (inside the car on the handle). This problem is described on the internet and there is at least one class action lawsuit in discussion (https://sauderschelkopf.com/automotive/nissan-altima-and-rogue-door-lock-failure-class-action-investigation/). This failure could result in safety issues (thinking the door is locked when it is not) both while driving at highway speeds or during an emergency exit scenario where you cannot unlock the door. I think it should be a mandatory recall to fix these door locks by Nissan. In the meantime, I will try to "fix" it in our car (but will save the bad parts). I have not contacted my dealer (don't really like them). There were no warnings other than we started setting off the car alarm when we opened the door that should have been locked.

Oct 25, 2025

The car door lock actuator failed prematurely. Part should last 10 to 20 years. It's not locking the door or if it is locked it won't let you in or out. Big issue regarding safety. I know past models had a recall. Unfortunately haven't heard anything on it for my model year. Getting repair done for my own safety out of pocket.

Oct 02, 2025

The front driver and passenger door lock do not function properly. Both with key locks and in door lock switches. The car has less than 35k miles.

THE VEHICLE HAS ACTIVATED A FALSE AEB ON SEVERAL OCASSIONS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT BACK TO NISSAN AND THEY STATED THERE WERE NO RECALLS AND THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO HAVE NO ISSUES. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 5 YEARS AND IT CONTINUES TO OCCUR, NEARLY CAUSING A TRAFFIC COLLISION.

Sep 16, 2025

I was traveling down a busy road just before lunch when I heard a beep then my Rogue braked hard. Thankfully nobody was in front of me or behind me at the time. It was scary.

Sep 16, 2024

I was driving at around 20 mph when the AEB warning light came on, a MALFUNCTION light came on, and the vehicle brakes locked up. I put the vehicle into neutral and shut it off. I then started it back up. The MALFUNCTION light was still on, the AEB warning light was still on. I was able to put it in drive and move it. I'm terrified if this happens again especially if I am on the highway when it happens. I took the vehicle to the dealer and they said they don't know why it happened and can't explain the warning lights.

Apr 26, 2024

While backing out of the driveway or driving forward, the automatic brake engages without warning and without cause. Because of this, I was practically rear ended when driving forward. When backing out of the driveway, the suddenness and the shock of the incident was particularly alarming to my wife who was a passenger in the car , who has a history of having suffered 2 heart attacks. On the first report of the incident, the dealership replaced the sensors on the car. I recently took the car back to the dealership and they are saying they can't reproduce the problem. The warnings, a beeping noise, come at the same time as the engine shuts off.

Jul 24, 2023

In October of 2022, While I was driving my 2020 Rogue on a country road to a school event for my granddaughter, the car made a soft bell sound then it immediately slammed on the brakes for no reason that I can understand. I immediately pulled the car off the road. It showed a triangle with an exclamation point within it in the dash display. I shut the car off and when I restarted it the triangle was gone and it drove ok. I later read online that this could be an AEB issue. It was a clear day with no rain and no cars close in front and, luckily, behind me. It scared the hell out of my wife and I. I no longer feel safe in the car if it can do this for no reason! I brought the car into a Nissan Dealer to have it checked on 10/20/22. They did not find any problems with it. They also did not see any fault codes that something happened within the vehicle's memory. I find it unbelievable that the car did not record the fault. To me this means that Nissan has deliberately disabled this function for this fault. I have done a lot of research and apparently this is a well known issue with Nissan vehicles, not just the rogues. I have also read that there are 2 class action suits against Nissan for this. I brought the vehicle in again in Jan 2023 to get the car checked again for the False Activation of AEB, FEB, or FCW. This time I asked to have it checked per NTB18-041D and reprogrammed to the latest software and/or any required hardware to fix this well known issue. They said this NTB was not for my rogue and did not fix it. I have read that this is normal for this defect shown in the NTB. I am still afraid to drive this car and have only driven it about 400 miles since it was looked at. And now I only drive it with the AEB disabled as I was instructed by a tech in the service dept. I would really like to be able to use the AEB safety feature without fear of it falsely locking up the brakes while I'm driving. This Rogue only has 6835 miles on it.

July 1,2025 my car came to a complete stop heading to work and turned off due to engine malfunction. The engine light is the only light that lights up. I called Nissan they stated that currently they had an open recall that will go into effect in August due to engine failures. By Thursday state wide announcement was made on the radio that there is a recall on Nissan rogues and other models for failure engine. I have had my car for 3 years and this is a 2020 year of make. I am highly disappointed bc I have been without a car since July 1st. I want it to be known that the 2020 of Nissan rogue is affected by engine failure as well. And I am looking forward to receiving a notice from Nissan as stated end of august for diagnosis and repair.

The airbag indicator light went on a couple months ago and they fixed it but said that a rolling water bottle under the driver's seat caused the airbags to get unplugged. A few months later, the airbag light went on again and it was disconnected again. The dealership is stating there's no way to prevent the airbags from getting disconnected.

Feb 01, 2023

Our airbag light (on the dash) came on and the "passenger air bag off" light came on as well, we took it to the dealership and they determined the airbag system needed to be replaced after owning the vehicle for only 1 year and told us that the vehicle was unsafe to drive and to limit our driving, if we were to be in an accident our airbags would not go off.

The contact owns a 2020 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the rear passenger’s side occupant was unable to release the seat belt buckle. After an extended attempt to assist, the contact observed that the seat belt continued to tighten and would not release, prompting the contact to cut the seat belt strap. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 128,000.

Jul 28, 2025

The seat belt connection is located so far down in the seat cushion that it is almost impossible to fasten, and it is especially difficult if you are trying to fasten in a child seat. The design is a safety problem. The seat belts I am referring to are on the back seat.

Dec 19, 2024

Our family owns 3 Nissan 2020 Rogue SV's. In all three the rear seat belts go between the seats and cannot be retrieved from above. I reported this to NHTSA previously and did not receive a reply since this is an extreme safety issue. We are not able to safely transport anyone in the backseat.

Jun 07, 2022

We have 3 2020 Nissan Rogue SV's in our family. The rear seat belts do not stay up and are too short. We have reported this to the dealer, Gainesville Nissan, and all they say is we know it is a problem, but Nissan does not have a fix. We recently had friends in the car and the rear seatbelt could not be latched because the seat belt catch is too low in the seat to be used. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE RECALL BY NISSAN!!!!!!!!! This has happened since we purchased the car in December of 2019.

The sunroof is and side of the front window leak and caused the electrical system to fault. It happened in my 2017 rogue and again in my 2020. I have had it fixed twice and it still does it.

SEATS

4 complaints

The drivers seat failed (Mechanic's words) From the report, "Seat rivets loose can not tighten. will need to replace seat frame." This puts my safety at risk because in an accident, the seat could come off, causing me to go through the windshield, crush injuries, the seat collapsing and being thrown backwards into back seat passengers in the event of getting rear ended. If the seat that I am seat belted in to detaches from the frame, none of the other safety features will matter. Airbags will be useless as will the seatbelt. When I had my oil changed on January 25, 2025, I asked them to check the drivers seat because it was moving slightly. I noticed the movement the week before. I assumed a bolt may be loose for some reason and needed to be tightened. I was shocked when they told me the seat frame failed and could not be fixed. I needed a new seat frame. I had another mechanic tell me to call Nissan because it had to be a manufacturer defect. It was not caused by wear and tear and is not normal. In researching this online, I found other people that have Nissan Rogues that have also had a problem with the driver's seat being loose and/or moving a bit. I did not report this to my insurance because I don't think I should have to pay for it. My car is less than 5 years old and only has around 42,000 miles on it. I contacted Nissan. After they investigated, they offered to pay 70% of the replacement cost. At first, I agreed but after rethinking it, I don't think I should have to pay over $400 to fix a problem that I didn't cause. There was no warning light. This is what I found online~No, a failing front seat frame in a newer Nissan Rogue is not considered normal and could indicate a serious safety issue, as Nissan has issued recalls for certain Rogue models due to potential problems with seat frame welding, which could affect occupant safety in a crash; if you suspect your Rogue's front seat frame is failing, you should immediately contact your Nissan dealer to chec

Driver's seat is clicking and moving the driver back and forth in place while in operation. Also, The seat clicks upon stop and go acceleration, when weight is shifted and/or car breaks for a stop. Driver's seat is unsecure and has multiple movements as if the seat is trying to latch in place all while in driving operation. -2020 Nissan Rogue -

Driver’s seat failed at the weld. It was squeaking and sliding back and forth a fraction of an inch at starts and stops. It was quite distracting for the driver and passengers thereby creating unsafe conditions. There were no warning lamps. This seat was confirmed by the dealer service center to have failed.

Mar 16, 2024

I PURCHASED A 2020 NISSAN ROGUE SV THAT HAS A POWER ADJUSTABLE DRIVERS SET. THE SLIDE RAIL ASSEMBLY HAS PLAY IN IT WHEN ADJUSTED TO MY DRIVING POSITION. IT ROCKS BACK DURING ACCELERATION AND ROCKS FORWARD DURING BREAKING. I CAN SIT IN THE SEAT STATIONARY AND MOVE IT FORWARD AND BACKWARD WITH MY BODY WEIGHT. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP TESTED SEVERAL OTHER 2020 MODELS AND FOUND 3 OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONE OF THEM ROCKED BACK AND FORTH EVEN WORSE THAN MINE. I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS TOLD BY THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THEIR INTERNAL REVIEW WAS " THIS IS A NATURAL OCCURRENCE OF THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS." I OWNED A 2017 ROGUE WITH THE SAME SEAT. THERE WAS NEVER ANY PLAY OR MOVEMENT WITH THE DRIVERS SEAT. MY CONCERNS ARE THAT IF UPON IMPACT EITHER FRONT CRASH OR BEING HIT FROM THE REAR, THIS MOVEMENT IN THE SEAT COULD POSSIBLY RESULT IN THE SEAT BREAKING FREE DUE TO THE IMPROPER GAP BETWEEN THE SLIDE RAIL ASSEMBLY PIECES. IT IS ALSO A SEVERE DISTRACTION TO ME AS THE DRIVER. DISTRACTED DRIVING SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY IN THIS MATTER. MY LAST CONCERN IS THIS. HOW MANY OF THESE FAULTY POWER SEATS ARE OUT ON THE ROADS ALREADY? I DON'T WANT TO SEE A SINGLE PERSON CAUSED HARM DURING A CRASH. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE POWER SEATS FROM NISSAN IMMEDIATELY. SAFETY MUST ALWAYS COME FIRST. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH.

AEB light flashes on and off at random driving times. sent in for inspection no code generated but have videos of each one. Safety feature that is no longer a safety feature, but a hazard to self and others while driving. when ur car stops would be my #1 one indicator especially on the freeway and at random times= accident, the possible death of self and others! no, the dealer cant no regenerate the code. no other inspection except the local dealer. No other warnings. light just randomly appeared 2 days after the purchase of the car, a few months later, etc same pattern. was informed weather, then dirt. NOT sure how a person can avoid weather; fog, condensation, moisture. or bugs hitting ur windshield or review mirrors while driving. I would have to bubble wrap my car for that and those things not to possibly effect this sensor.

On Thanksgiving, the rear door of our vehicle closed unexpectedly on my back while I was loading food and gifts. It seemed stuck; I had to lift it manually to reset it. It then resumed working normally. However, recently, it fell on my husband’s head while he was unloading groceries. He has a history of concussions, and I am very concerned about the safety risk this malfunction poses. Please investigate this issue and advise on any recalls or necessary actions.

Hello: We bought the vehicle in 2021. After a few months, we noticed that the vehicle braked itself: meaning it auto-braked while driving at 25mph on the road. We took the vehicle to the dealer for repair. They said, "the vehicle was absolutely fine and perhaps something in the way of the vehicle triggered braking". I, the driver replied, I didn't have any vehicles either in front of or behind me. And besides, I understand the "safety features" and functionalities. Yet, they gave me the vehicle without repair. After a few months, same thing happened: the vehicle auto-braked or braked itself without me the driver putting my foot on the brakes. This time I also called the company's consumer affairs who said they'd help. The consumer affairs worked with the dealer. The dealer now said, "yes the vehicle indeed had auto-braking issues and it could be fixed, and that they'll fix it". So, I, now assured that the vehicle was a 100% fine when it came to auto-braking had been driving the vehicle until today April 16th, 2024, when while driving out on the city in 25mph the vehicle auto-braked again! I emailed the dealer and also called the company's consumer affairs (at their headquarters) to keep them in the loop today, and expect to hear back from them. In this instance, (3rd in 2-3 years), I'm not sure whether the dealer will brush aside the problem as "nothing" as in the first instance, or purport to "fix the issue" without actually fixing it, as in the second instance. At any rate, it came down to a "matter of principle": meaning since I'm not sure if the vehicle's intrinsic defect will be "resolved completely ever", I have to report it to "governing authorities". I hope you will take it from here and do the needful. Thank you in advance for your support.

I was driving approximately 40 mph on a road that was unoccupied by anybody else and the light started flashing and my brakes locked up in the middle of the road for about 3 seconds and then released. I reported it to the Nissan dealership they claimed that there was nothing wrong. I went back to the Nissan dealership after contacting Nissan corporation and they told me that there was a sensor that they had to replace but after they replaced said sensor my rear sonar doesn't work so I believe they just disconnected something and then the dealership took back the paperwork claiming that they were going to do more research on the issue.

I was pulling into a parking space with my foot on the brake going about 2 mph. About 4 feet from a pole the engine raced and the car slammed into the pole. The airbags did not deploy. I was the only person in the car and my foot was still on the bake after the collision I asked Nissan to investigate and they said I would have to wait to get the car fixed for two months and store and tow it at my own expense. It was already being repaired and my insurance company will only pay for a rental for 50 days.

For the past week I have experienced my gas pedal sticking when I accelerate to pass a vehicle at an increased speed. It takes several taps of the brake to get the pedal to unstick. The latest incident was yesterday on my way home from work. I took my car to a local Nissan Dealer and they said they determined it was the floormat, but I looked at that each time it happened and it is not over the floormat. I'm afraid to drive this car and don't know what to do about it.

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW ON JUNE 2020. FIRST INCIDENT WAS IN NOVEMBER 2020 I WAS DRIVING AT 55MPH ON A HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS TURNED ON AND MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE CAR STARTED BEEPING LETTING ME KNOW OF THE POSSIBLE COLLISION. THERE WAS CLEARLY NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME BUT THANKS TO THIS INCIDENT I CAME SO CLOSE TO CAUSING A MONSTROUS CHAIN EFFECT OF AN ACCIDENT AND COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE REAR ENDED ME GIVEN THE SPEED EVERYONE IS TRAVELING AND MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPING. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS PURCHASED FROM AND THEY "DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE" AND REPLACED THE ELECTRIC MODULE OF THE CAR. SINCE THAT INCIDENT I AM VERY FEARFUL THAT IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN. IT'S TERRIBLE THAT I'M DRIVING A CARE I DON'T EVEN FEEL SAFE IN AND STILL PAYING. ALSO THERE'S THIS NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK AXEL'S THEY SOUND LIKE IF THERE BRAKING APART VERY LOUD AND EVERY TIME I BACK UP THEY CAN EVEN BE HEARD AND IT TURNS HEADS AND ITS TERRIBLE AGAIN I'M EMBARRASSED OF THE LOUD NOISE OF IT AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ALL THEY CAN SAY IS "CANT HEAR AND CANT FIX ISSUE SINCE ITS NON-EXISTENT". ALSO THE RADIO RANDOMLY WILL SHUT OFF AND POWER ON AT ANY TIME THEN SPEAKERS START TO SOUND LIKE IF SOMEONE DROPPED WATER INSIDE OF THEM! AND AGAIN THE DEALERSHIPS RESPONSE "NO ISSUE AT THE TIME OF SERVICE" AND THERE RECOMMENDATION IS TO RECORD IT ON MY PHONE WHEN IT HAPPENS. WELL I CANT DO THAT IF I'M DRIVING. THIS CAR IS THE DEFINITION OF A LEMON. NOT HAPPY OF THE PURCHASE AND WOULDN'T RECOMMENDED THIS VEHICLE TO ANYONE.

MY 2020 NISSAN ROGUE I ONLY HAD ABOUT 3 DAYS AND I WAS DRIVING TURNING OUT OF A CHURCH PARKING LOT AND IT CUT OFF ON ME. I TRIED TO CRANK IT AND IT WOULD NOT CRANK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ALSO ON. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. THE SECOND 2020 NISSAN ROGUE I GOT FROM THE SAME DEALERSHIP, I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE FEB/AEB LIGHT COMING SINCE SEPTEMBER. NO ONE, NO ANIMALS, NO FOG, NO RAIN, NO OTHER CARS ARE NEAR ME WHEN THIS LIGHT KEPT COMING ON, THAT I HAVE VIDEO OF. HAD IT LOOKED AT AT TWO DIFFERENT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS ONE FOUND PAST CODES IN OCT AND THE OTHER ON 11/3 SAID EVERYTHING WAS PERFECTLY FINE NOTHING WAS WRONG. ON 11/4 I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35-40 MILES PER HOUR ON A CITY STREET AND MY CAR JUST BRAKED ON ME OUT OF NO WHERE. AND A RED/ORANGE LIGHT WITH A CAR IN THE MIDDLE WITH A SOUND WAVE TYPE SYMBOL BLINKED ON THE DASHBOARD AND WHEN OFF BEFORE I KNEW IT. IT WAS TERRIFYING AND THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS HURT BECAUSE OUR HEADS FLEW FORWARD AND THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. NO CARS WERE IN FRONT OF ME DURING THIS TIME, BUT THERE WERE SOME BEHIND ME THAT COULD HAVE HIT ME AND CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIPS ARE AWARE AND SO IS NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, BUT I AM STILL BEING TOLD IT IS OKAY TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE BECAUSE THERE ARE NO CODES THAT THE COMPUTER CAN FIND.

The heater and thus defroster no longer work, only cold air comes out. A Nissan service center diagnosed the issue as a stripped out part of the blend door actuator. The whole heater box would need to be replaced to resolve the issue. In winter driving, the lack of defroster impairs visibility and turns off the automatic forward braking system. The fault light for the forward braking system comes on when there is windshield frost/fog. The first signs of this issue appeared as intermittent failures of the heater failing to turn on, but resolved on the next drive. Eventually, the heater/defroster permanently failed. From searching the internet, this blend door actuator issue appears to be prevalent among other Rogues.

The ignition switch (push start button) stopped working. At the time, the key fob batteries were new. The key fobs were still working - the lock/unlock worked, the trunk release worked, and the remote start even worked. The 'trick' of holding the tip of the key fob to the start button did not start the car. This is a safety hazard because my car will not start. Luckily I was at home, but I could have been stranded somewhere. My car is currently at a Nissan dealership. I was hoping that the computer codes just needed to be reset. However, they are telling me the Body Control Module needs to be replaced. I would like the BCM investigated by the NHTSA. Previous years of the Nissan Rogue have had BCM issues. My particular car has not been in any circumstance that would make the BCM go bad - it's only four years old and has not been exposed to flood or extreme heat/cold. The 'key battery low' light came on the dash a couple weeks prior. I had just replaced the key fob battery in both fobs the day before the start button issue. The car is currently at: Cochran Nissan South Hills 3200 W. Liberty Ave. Pittsburgh, PA 15216 412-245-4540 I have not yet authorized repairs.

Do Not Drive this vehicle. This happens when you're on the highway above 50 miles per hour. There was a smoke smell also inside the car and outside. Dealership said it was the breaks and kept the car 45 minutes to repair the breaks. They said this vehicle was never in an accident and past MD Inspection but the last page said, vehicle failed. They never explained why it failed inspection the first time. The dealership cannot fix it and ignores me mostly. they said its a sensor issue, a settings feature issue and to bring in the vehicle to reset the settings. the dealership said in so many unspoken words, its your problem. Ive had the vehicle about 2 weeks now.

Over the past 6 months was when the following electrical issues began. I was traveling around 25 mph when my Foward Collison Warning signaled and led to the Automatic Braking Emergency engaging. There was no other vehicle or object around. I was in the countryside. The weather was clear. If this were to happen under different circumstances on a busy highway it would have caused an accident, most likely fatalities. The other drivers would have had no warning because the vehicle does brake hard even stop abruptly depending on speed. The vehicle locked up and I didn't have control over my vehicle anymore. Also more then once the Forward Collison Light came on when it was raining and/or dense fog. The brakes did not engage and the alarm did not sound but the warning still showed on the dash. It eventually stopped showing on my dash as I drove, but I did pull over and wipe the sensor area. Another problem I'm encountering is the Parking Collison Warning. Sensors are detecting something and being activated when there is no object behind vehicle. I even got out of vehicle to make sure because I didn't see anything in my camera. When I made sure there was nothing obstructing my travel I preceeded and the sensor stopped beeping. I have checked the Nissan website and entered my VIN but unfortunately there were no recalls for these malfunctioning sensors.

CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT WORK AND ANY ATTEMPT TO USE CRUISE CONTROL IS MET WITH AUDIBLE ALARM AND WARNING THAT FRONT RADAR IS OBSTRUCTED. I STOP, CHECK ALL RADAR/SENSORS FOR DEBRI... EVERYTHING IS FINE, NO BUGS, NOT DEBRI, NO OBSTRUCTION. I RESTART ENGINE, SAME WARNING APPEARS BEFORE I EVEN PUT TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE. START DRIVING, SAME SITUATION, FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTED, CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE. AFTER 10 MILES OR SO THE FLASING LIGHT GOES OFF, EVERYTHING RETURNS TO NORMAL, CRUISE CONTROL WORKS PROPERLY. CAR MAY EXPERIENCE THIS OROBLEM TWICE IN HUNDRED MILE TRIP ON PERFECTLY CLEAR DAY. OTHER TIMES IT MAY NOT HAPPEN AT ALL ON A 100 MILE TRIP. WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE SITUATION BECOMES DANGEROUS QUICKLY BECAUSE THE AUTOMATED BRAKING IS DISABLED AND IF THE RADIO IS ON IT'S EASY TO NOT REALIZE THE SYSTEM IS OFF UNTIL YOUR SPEED IS REDUCED SIGNIFICANTLY. I HAVE HAD 2 CLOSE CALLS BECAUSE OF THIS - ONE WITH A CAR IN FRONT OF ME STOPPING ABRUPTLY AND THE SYSTEM FAILED TO MAINTAIN THE SELECTED GAP BETWEEN MY VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME SO I HAD TO VEER ONTO THE MEDIAN TO AVOID A COLLISION; THE SECOND TIME THE CRUISE ABRUPTLY DISENGAGED TRAFFIC BEHIND ME ALMOST RAN INTO ME WHICH CAUSED VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO HAVE A CLOSE CALL. SO FAR THIS PROBLEM HAS ALWAYS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE, NEVER IN TOWN. SOMETIMES WHEN IT IS RAINING REALLY HARD THE SAME WARNING LIGHT & AUDIBLE ALARM WILL SOUND, HOWEVER CRUISE CONTROL REMAINS OPERATIONAL AS DOES THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING. SO IT APPEARS TO WORK PROPERLY AT TIMES.
