| Aug 2021 | POWER TRAIN,SEATS,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Purchsed a new 2021 Rouge SL, I had the car for 2 days and the check engine light came on, I took it to the service center where all they did was clear the code. The very next day the car would not go into any gear and the check engine light came on again, this time they are saying it is the filler neck to the fuel tank. The rear seats also will not let down unless you push against the back of the seat and pull the lever hard, then had issues of the latch not locking the seat in a upright position unless you basically push the seat hard. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2021 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | 5 days after buying the car when you turn it on. An alert of FAILURE IN THE MOTOR LACK OF ENERGY TAKE TO SERVICE. He took him to where he was bought, they checked everything was fine but he did not understand why that notice came out. moderately to call to give me an answer but they did not call me. Weeks passed and the car began to show warnings on the screen, a yellow wrench, a yellow exclamation point, lack of oil, perform an oil change with only 1000 miles, the parking sensor is constantly activated while driving, the vehicle It turns off, it was taken back to where it was bought, they reviewed it and did a re-programming, when I went to pick up a car from the workshop I turned it on and the car turned off and the alarm sounded. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2021 | AIR BAGS,SEAT BELTS | We bought our 2021Nissan Rogue SE from Fuccillo Nissan of Clearwater, 15232 US-19, Clearwater, FL, (727-507-3200) on May 5, 2021.Our Rogue had 400+ miles on the odometer at the time we received. On June 7, 2021 the air bag dash light came on. An appointment was made for service of the airbags on June 10, 2021. At the time of pick up the airbag dash light was off. It turned back on June 14, 2021. In a call to Fuccillo Service Department the service tech informed us that because the airbag dash light was on the airbags were disabled. We had a major trip planned to attend a wedding in PA that we were driving to. Since the airbags were disabled driving our Rogue on a 3000+ mile trip would not be safe. We were put in a position of renting a vehicle for our trip. On June 15, 2021 we left our Rogue at Fuccillo Nissan of Clearwater for repair of this safety issue. Today is July 14, 2021 and our Rogue is still at the dealership waiting for the arrival of a seat belt clip which may fix the airbag issue. We have started a claim Case# 44081404 with Nissan Consumer Assistance requesting replacement of Rogue with a new 2021 Nissan Rogue comparably equipped as the new 2021 Nissan Rogue we purchased on May 5, 2021. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2021 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I had just filled up my tank and was leaving the local gas station. My car would not move. This was not the result of the gas I just put in it. Additionally, the electrical display on the dashboard was wreaking havoc. It told me to put my foot on the break to start my car, even though the car had to be running to have the blue tooth connected and me speaking on the phone with the car door wide open. Best of all, the assistance button to call for help, wouldn't work because it wouldn't start. The car has less than 3K miles on it, it had to be towed to the dealership. Because my car is so new I was told the part is on back order. They are waiting on a fuel pump in hopes of keeping the car running to find out what is causing the electrical issues. I waited 30 years to get a new car, and now I am afraid of it. Looking at the reviews and troubles other have had with theirs is disheartening. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
