Crash: No
Fire: No
Vehicle Identification Number: 1N4AA6AV5KC******
Summary

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.

Summary

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.

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.
