| Mar 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Burger King doesn't always kick on and I have to turn the car off and turn it on before it'll kick on even when it's in the on position. Don't feel any air coming out until I turn the car off. Turn it back on then it starts working again. Also the radio doesn't want to turn off or turn on at times and so again I will turn the car off and on and it seems to reset and then I can work the radio. But I've done this on a few occasions where when I turn the car back on it still didn't work the radio. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | • "2023 Rogue, 24,000 miles, coolant in engine (2024), new engine delayed six months (Nov 2024), broke down two weeks later (chip), broke again Feb 2025 (ECM, hose hole). Nissan promised buyback three times in mediation but hasn't acted." This is one letter out of two promising they will buy back our vehicle insinuating we refusing to provide any additional paperwork. Why would we? We have been giving them everything to get this buyback. Letter below promising still nothing Good morning, Please provide me with an updated payoff letter and payment history. I have gotten approval to waive the documents I typically need to proceed since you are refusing to provide the correct documentation. I have begun the calculations. Once you provide me the updated payoff and payment history(detailed with principle and interest separated), I will draft your repurchase agreement based off the BBB program summary. Please be advised that the updated payoff letter and payment history will be required with no exceptions. Please be advised that alternate transportation is not required under the warranty and is a convenience option some dealerships have the ability to offer.

| Feb 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I believe there is an issue with the transmission. While driving, the vehicle is unable to accelerate. The engine revs high and the RPMs go really high. I have to pull over and turn off the car. When I restart, I am able to proceed, and the car acts normal. This has happened several times and has occurred in heavy traffic. This issue has happened many times over the past few months. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Rear window shattered without previous damage or impact of any object. Vehicle was parked in the middle of a garage, temperature was 32F and driver was present during event. Heard loud noise followed by rear glass shattering and fragments flying all the way to back seat passengers. Nobody was hurt, but glass shards had to be removed from their hair/ clothing. Problem has not been reproduced in dealership, but multiple reports for same vehicle have been filed online. Vehicle has not been inspected by insurance, as they will not cover it. There were no warning signs, or evidence of malfunction. Glass was inspected that same day before driving, had no cracks or breaks. Rear wiper was off when this happened. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | STEERING | My vehicles tie rods broke on my way home from work while I pulled slowly onto a snowy road from my work driveway. I felt my car slide and tap the side of a curb, or so I thought. When I couldn't drive the vehicle I had to have it towed. The Nissan dealership I took it to said the damage, $9000, was caused by bumping into the curb. My insurance company did not agree with their repair amount and my vehicle was again towed to a nearby alternate dealership. After one month and half, my vehicle was repaired and I picked it up, only to find that the vehicle is intermittently vibrating and shaking. I believe this is the prelude for the same issue I had before. The break in the tie rods made me lose control of my vehicle. I have since seen tie rod recalls from Nissan and multiple complaints about the same issue. I am afraid for my safety while driving this vehicle. I contacted Nissan Consumers Complaints and they wanted me to wait for their 90 day investigation in order for them to take responsibility for anything, while I remained in a rental I had to pay for. This puts not only myself at a safety risk, but anyone who is driving with me or near me. I told that to Consumers Complaints. I don't want to see anyone else get hurt because of this issue. My vehicle is currently available for inspection. I am leasing it at $500 a month and am afraid to drive it. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | ENGINE | Component/System Malfunction: I own a 2023 Nissan Rogue and have experienced excessive engine vibrations since the beginning. Despite multiple service visits, the issue persisted, ultimately leading to a complete engine failure at 64,000 miles. Safety Concerns: The vibrations and power reduction warnings compromised safety. My car eventually broke down in Vail, CO, leaving me stranded in freezing weather for four hours while waiting for assistance. Dealer/Service Center Findings: At my first service visit, the dealership diagnosed a transmission mount issue and claimed to have fixed it, but the problem remained. The check engine light appeared twice, along with an “Engine Power Reduced” warning. The dealership found no immediate issues. At 64,000 miles, my car broke down, and the check engine light reappeared. The dealership initially couldn’t find the problem but later performed a compression test and quoted a $10,000 repair estimate. Manufacturer/Inspection History: I reported the issue multiple times before my warranty expired, but Nissan failed to take corrective action. Now, just 4,000 miles past the warranty, I am being asked to cover the full cost, despite having records proving I reported the issue earlier. Warning Signs Before Failure: •Heavy engine vibrations at startup and idle. •Two check engine light incidents. •“Engine Power Reduced” warning message. •Complete breakdown at 64,000 miles, leaving me stranded in cold weather for four hours. Conclusion: This defect was present from the start, yet Nissan failed to address it. I request an investigation, as this may be a widespread issue affecting other Nissan Rogue owners. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Dash displays message indicating forward driving aids are disabled due to "Lane camera over temperature" on a frequent basis. This occurs even in below-freezing weather when the interior of the vehicle is cold. Adaptive speed control, AEB, lane departure, etc., systems are disabled. A vehicle restart clears the error. Nissan is aware of this issue (reference their TSB reference number NTB22-088.) Even though this repeatedly occurs, the Nissan dealer claims it is normal behavior and will not take corrective action unless a DTC is found. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2025 | SEAT BELTS,SEATS | After an oil change at a Certified Nissan dealership, the left rear seat belt sensor was indicating on the dash board that someone was sitting in there and was strapped, so the light had a green check, but there was no one in that seat plus the seat belt was not even strapped. The next day, the front passenger seat belt also went awry. With no one in the seat, the seat belt sensor started beeping which means it believed someone was in that seat unstrapped, but again, no one was in it. I have only ownes the car for 4 months, the car is clean and there is no debris in the seat belt latch system. There is definitely something wrong with the seatbelt sensors. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

There was an abnormal odor coming from the vehicle. The dealer test-drove the vehicle but was unable to identify the odor. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 78,000. The VIN was not available. | Crash: No Fire: No Towed | 78,000 |

CAUSING THE PLUG TO BE UNABLE TO BE PLACED BACK AND NEW OILPAN TO BE INSTALLED. OIL PANS ARE ON 3+ MONTH BACKORDER GIVING APPERANCE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | LANE DEPARTURE,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the buttons located on the steering wheel failed to operate as needed. Due to the failure, the contact could not access several of the safety features such as Lane Assist, Blind Spot Assist, or Parking Assist. The contact called the manufacturer for assistance after discovering online that the part needed to repair the vehicle was on backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and the contact was referred to a dealer that had the part in stock. The contact called the dealer but was informed that the part was unavailable nationwide. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 40,000 |
| Jan 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | The rear window of the vehicle exploded with no impact. After backing out of my driveway I was pulling forward down the street and my rear window exploded. There was a pop and crackle sound. There was no evidence on the vehicle that something struck the window nor was there anything seen in the cameras around my home. When I got out of the vehicle and shut my door the glass fell into the trunk of the car and a piece went into the door handle which shorted it out and it needed to be replaced after the glass was replaced. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE,LANE DEPARTURE | I took my car to the Nissan dealer because sometimes when I am stopped with my foot on the brake the engine will start to accelerate trying to overcome the brake. The only thing I can do to stop this is turn off the engine. This has happened 4 times in the last month and not before. The dealer was unable to find anything wrong and could not duplicate this action. I have now been referred to Nissan consumer Affairs, Bureau of Automobile Repair, New Motor Vehicle Board and now your agency, I feel that this vehicle to drive because it could cause damage to me, my car and the the public. The last time this occurred I was stopped coming out of shopping center waiting for the traffic to clear when the car started accelerating which would have pushed me into the oncoming traffic. Hopefully, you'll be able to help me as now of the above mentioned agencies have been able to help. The only date I can give you for certain was 12/23/2024 | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | ENGINE | On December 31st, 2024, we came out from the grocery store to our 2023 Rogue which we had been running errands in all day and the car wouldn’t start. We then tried to give it a jump, replaced the battery, and checked fuses. None of these helped so we had it towed to Firestone. The tech there stated he found coolant in the spark plug wells and told us we needed to have it sent to the local Nissan dealer we bought it brand new from. After the Nissan techs inspected the car, we were told it needs a whole new engine. The car has had proper maintenance and oil changes its entire life and only has 61,000 miles and now it needs a new engine due to premature engine failure. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Jan 2025 | ENGINE | While driving down the highway going approximately 55 MPH, the vehicle lost power in the middle of the highway and shut off completely, with a sudden warning that said “Engine Malfunction.” The vehicle stopped in the middle of the highway and smoke began filling the cabin, leaving me to believe there was a fire under the hood. I evacuated the kids out of my car and pushed it off to the side of the road, then called the fire department. When the vehicle was towed to a Nissan dealership they discovered that there were many large metal chunks in the oil pan and the engine needed to be completely replaced. The vehicle only has 50,000 miles on it and is technically covered under powertrain, however Nissan is trying to get out of covering the replacement of the engine. There have been many documented cases of this exact thing happening to this make model and year Rogue. Nissan needs to take responsibility before someone dies. This incident was incredibly dangerous and could have ended catastrophically had I not pushed the car off the roadway. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2025 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Rear window shield busted randomly in cold. Car was parked and when I returned to parked car the rear window was shattered. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE Forward Collision Warning on this car since i have had it new . It has been to the local dealer and still has not been fixed. The problem is when it get colder 35 to 50 degrees F out site it will stop working for about 30 to 45 min then start working again for 45 min to an hour then stop working again. during the time it does not work the speed control stops working and forward collision sensors do not work. I have reported this to the local dealer and it has been in the shop over 5 times about this. I was told it is a software problem. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic for a routine oil change and was informed that the oil pan drain plug was made of metal; however, the oil pan threads were made of plastic. As a result, oil was leaking from the oil pan due to the threads being stripped. The contact was referred to the dealer who acknowledged the failure and agreed to replace to oil pan under warranty; however, the oil pan was replaced with another oil pan with the same issue. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 19,990. | Crash: No Fire: No | 19,990 |
| Dec 2024 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Gas smell from outside car. Can smell under hood when opened also. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | SUSPENSION,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | We purchased a new 2023 Rogue last year. One year in, we have a failed upper transmission mount and both power struts on the tailgate. The dealer claims these are known issues but now recalls them. Now, we need to spend over $4,000 for a one-year-old car. I am surprised by the quality Nissan is currently using in their vehicles. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2024 | ENGINE | I'm seeking reimbursement for purchase of new oil pan, $618.99 plus tax. From further investigating, the main issue is Nissan chose to use plastic oil pans in this vehicle. I took my vehicle to Walmart for oil change and company would not complete due to they reporting previous issues with Nissan Rogue oil system. They told me there was a recall. I called Carmax, place of purchase, and was told no recalls. I called Nissan dealership and was told no recalls. I then took my vehicles to Suns Auto and reported what was told to me by Walmart. Suns Auto said soon as they touched the oil plug it exploded off and they were unable to replace. This caused all of the oil to drain out annd therefore making car undriveable. At that point, if I wanted to drive my vehicle, I had to pay for replacing oil pan which was $618.99. I've been trying to get some type of compensation from all mentioned above but no one is taking responsibility. Neither would compensate or work with me on minimizing my out of pocket cost. I hope you understand my dilemma and assist. Very disappointed, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
