Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My daughter was driving her new 2020 Nissan Rogue Sport during the day. Her brakes engaged at full strength and the car came to a jolting stop. There was nothing in front of her and luckily nothing behind her. This is a severe safety issue that deserves a recall! I have read that at least 1400 other rogue owners have reported this problem. Why no recall?!”

NHTSA complaint #11378573, filed 2020-12, 3,500 miles

“Within two months of purchasing a brand new vehicle the car started breaking and came to a full stop without any reason. Both incidents happened in broad daylight with no hazardous conditions on the road.”

NHTSA complaint #11376279, filed 2020-11, 1,454 miles

“Heading home while raining the Automatic Emergency Break engaged while driving and nothing was present to make it engage. This time my husband was driving and it made us run off the road. This also engaged while backing out of my garage and nothing was present to make it engage. Nissan does not seem like they want to fix the issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11476783, filed 2022-07

“My 2020 Nissan Sport braked while I was driving and then lost power completely and would not accelerate no matter how much or how long I pressed the gas pedal. This occurred for no reason and there was no obstacle in front of the vehicle. This is a very serious problem and could cause a serious accident. A message appeared in the instrumental panel saying “Warning Malfunction” and the symbol of two cars colliding appeared.”
