The warning light for AEB lights with IFC is on won't go off and Radio turns up loud on its on and volume goes out and USB port in front has stopped working. Radio has done this several times. Normally resetting Radio will fix Radio problem but it's not working now. I don't know why the AEB light is on.
We were traveling on a lightly crowded highway when all at once the car shuddered, tire and warning lights came on, noise and vibration levels increased dramatically. I managed to pull over and then off the highway in order to replace the damaged tire with the donut spare. The roadway was clear, and we did not run over any objects. The tire was utterly flat. It had failed instantly, as opposed to a leak. The attached photo shows that the inner sidewall of the tire failed simultaneously, in multiple places. NOTE!!! Earlier batches of this same brand/make/model tire have already been RECALLED! The tires on my car were made 3 weeks after the listed DOT batch week end. The recall period needs to be extended.
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND MY DASH LIT UP RED AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATED CAUSING AN ABRUPT STOP. THERE WERE NO OBJECTS IN THE ROAD AND ALL OTHER VEHICLES WERE IN SAFE RANGE, NOWHERE NEAR MY VEHICLE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATAL ACCIDENT OR SERIOUS INJURIES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE AND I PURCHASED MY CAR BRAND NEW 6 MONTHS AGO.
RADIO HEAD UNIT CUTS OUT RANDOMLY NOT ALLOWING SOUND TO THE SPEAKERS. HAVE TO CONTINUALLY REBOOT RADIO, OFTEN TIMES MORE THAN 3 TIMES, FOR IT TO WORK. IT HAPPENS WHEN STATIONARY, STILL BASICALLY AT ANY TIME
DRIVING NORTH ON BISCAYNE BLVD 167TH ST NORTH MIAMI FL CAR DRASTICALLY WENT TO RIGHT AND WENT ON RISKING AND HIT POLES AND AIR BAGS CAME OUT I HAD NO CONTROL OF VEHICLE IT WAS MECHANICAL DEFECT I CALLED PRIOR TO RENTAL SAYING SOMETHING IS WRONG BUT NO ONE LISTENED.*DT*JB*DT CONSUMER RECEIVED A LETTER STATING VEHICLE WAS SOLD AS A SALVAGE.*JB
HEADLIGHTS DISABLED IN RAIN CAR VARIED RIGHT DRASTICALLY AND IN PARK IT STILL GO IN MOTION *LN*JB
WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROADWAY THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY STOPS. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW THIS YEAR AND THIS INSTANCE WITH THE BRAKING HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES. THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED A SENSOR. THE ABS LIGHT IS NOW OFF AND IT HAS NOT 'PHANTOM BRAKED' OR 'FALSELY ACTIVATED' SINCE BUT I A WORRIED THAT IF AND WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN I MAY BE IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE A COLLISION OR EVEN WORSE HURT, HARM, OR EVEN DEATH TO MYSELF OR OTHER. THERE IS 2 OTHERS IN MY OFFICE THAT HAVE PURCHASED 2019 ROGUES THIS YEAR AND HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES. NISSAN NEEDS TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION AND DO SO QUICKLY.
THE INFOTAINMENT AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM - INCLUDING AUDIO - IS AN EXCEPTIONAL HAZARD. NISSAN NORTH AMERICA DOES NOT CARE. MULTIPLE CONVERSATIONS - AND CASES - ACROSS MULTIPLE MODEL YEARS HAVE RESULTED IN NOTHING. WHILE IN MOTION, THE AUDIO SYSTEM COMES ON, CARPLAY STARTS AND STOPS, AND THE VEHICLE IS A REGULAR DISTRACTION-LADEN, UNSAFE, UNTESTED PLATFORM FOR FAILING OWNERS. USB PORTS STOP WORKING AND SHORT OUT. SYSTEM REBOOTS. AUDIO COMES ON AT BLARING VOLUME.
