Issues with automatic braking when backing up with a trailer

supersixfour · Sep 9, 2025

When I back up with a trailer my 25 Frontier it automatically applies the brakes and won't let me backup any further. I apply and let off the brakes and it lets me go a foot or more and then the brakes are applied automatically again.
I turned off all driving aid features(blind spot, lane, forward) in menus and the VDC on the dash. Still does the same thing.
I did a forum search but don't see anything that addresses this specifically.
Any ideas on what may be causing it??

Hating a vehicle cause you're unable to push a button is kinda wild.

Start truck
Grasp shifter
Extend finger and go "boop" as you press the a.s.s button. The boop sound helps build muscle memory.

This works well, It just took a few days to get the sequence into muscle memory.

I just jam the a.s.s. button with a piece of zip tie that holds the button in so its disabled.

Most states you only pay sales tax on the difference between your trade and the new vehicle. That said, I agree that sales tax sucks. It's regressive, unfairly impacts low income folks.

Easy now, folks can have bad luck.
