SERVICE BRAKES
Owners report that the 2019 Nissan Rogue frequently experiences issues with the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system, which can engage unexpectedly without any obstruction ahead, causing the vehicle to stop abruptly. This problem is often noted at speeds ranging from 20 to 45 mph and has been associated with several crashes, including instances where the brakes failed to prevent collisions. Complaints also mention a recurring grinding noise from the rear brakes and rapid brake wear, with some owners needing replacements as early as 30,000 miles. The unintended activation of the AEB system poses significant safety risks, particularly in traffic, where sudden stops could lead to rear-end collisions. Buyers considering this model should be aware of these potential issues, especially if the vehicle has not received any software updates or repairs addressing these complaints.
