We purchased this vehicle in April of 2019. Since it was purchased there has been 20 or more cases of the Automatic Emergency Braking activating itself, without any visible trigger. We have been to the dealership multiple times and they told us it wasn’t a problem. Finally after the fourth or fifth time we were told there was a “service bulletin” to replace one of the sensors, but were also told “Nissan would not admit a problem, so don’t expect a recall.” My wife has almost been run over by 18-wheelers because of this system. One truck actually had to hit a ditch and damage his bumper to avoid her. This has happened at many different speeds, in many different road conditions, and in many different weather patterns.

When I have Cruise Control activated, for example, at 65 mph, the engine transmission seems to keep shifting gears up and down and does not maintain a steady pace and slowing down/speeding up and shifting constantly. It is to the point that I will not use the Cruise Control any longer. It has happened each time I have activated it and I am inquiring if it is a commonly reported issue.

When diving and accelerating the speed stays between 25-40 miles and will not go over 40. It seems like I have cruise control on but I don't. I have to pull over and turn the vehicle off. When I start it again it works fine. It has happened at least 10 times already. Also, when I accelerate from a stop sign the vehicle hesitates to respond, several seconds later the vehicle was fine. Turning the vehicle on/off seems to fix the problem. I'm scared to drive on the freeway. Please fix this issue.

The backup camera periodically freezes when you put the vehicle in reverse. Other times, the screen will stay black or just show the Nissan logo until you cycle power.

This vehicle is currently operated outside of the US but will be available for inspection upon return. The issue is intermittent so it has not been reproduced in the presence of any service center. There were no warning messages involved.
