NHTSA Complaint #11133402 — 2018 NISSAN ROGUE

OCTOBER 3, 2018 I WENT TO A LOCAL MALL. ON MY WAY OUT OF THE PARKING LOT LIGHTS STARTED BLINKING ON MY DASH AND THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN THERE WAS NO OTHER CAR NEAR MY CAR EITHER IN FRONT OR ON EITHER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING STEADILY ABOUT 25 TO 30 MPH ON THE ROAD BEFORE YOU GET TO RTE 100/422 BYPASS. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THIS INCIDENT TO OCCUR SINCE THERE WAS NO OTHER CAR NEARBY, NO DEBRIS ON THE ROAD, AND NOTHING ADHERING TO THE FRONT OF THE CAR NEAR THE SENSOR. I WAS TOTALLY FREAKED OUT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS JERKING, THE CAR (NOT THE DRIVER WAS IN CONTROL) AND IT ALMOST DID NOT STOP AT TA MAJOR INTERSECTION. GOD FORBID I WAS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION BUT THE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER ABSOLUTE CONTROL OF THE AUTOMATIC BREAKING SYSTEM.
