| Description of the problem | The automatic emergency braking system on my 2017 rogue engaged yesterday during highway driving at roughly 60 mph. What a horrifically terrifying event. I was traveling within a single lane on a 3 lane highway when out of the blue the brakes locked up. The vehicle shuddered and the car went from 60 mph to about 15-20 mph in a matter of a couple hundred feet. It felt as though several tires had blown out at once or the automatic transmission had completely locked up. I remember hearing an audible chime and seeing something on the console panel flashing what i believe to be red warning light while i was fighting to retain control of the vehicle. Within a period of about 3-5 seconds the whole event was over and the vehicle had abruptly slowed itself to the aforementioned speed. Fortunately at the time the traffic was light and there was not another vehicle directly behind me or the consequences of this event would have ended tragically. The important thing to note is that this was relatively open road at the time and there were no other vehicles or obstructions in front or to the sides of the vehicle when this occurred. The vehicle has been promptly turned over to nissan for a full review and repair of the forward emergency braking system. |
