| Apr 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE | While driving at approximately 70 mph on I-76 , a “CVT HOT” warning appeared on the dashboard. Immediately after, the vehicle lost power and would not accelerate normally, creating a safety hazard in traffic. I was forced to pull over multiple times. This issue began after a recall repair was performed on the vehicle. The condition resolved temporarily after shutting the vehicle off, but the failure was sudden and dangerous. While driving, multiple warning messages appeared including AWD system errors and check engine light. The vehicle’s performance became unstable and unreliable. This created concern about loss of control and drivability. The vehicle had recently undergone recall service, after which these issues began occurring intermittently. The vehicle was brought to an authorized Nissan dealership multiple for diagnosis of the CVT warning, AWD errors, and loss of power. The dealership kept the vehicle for several hours on multiple occasions but stated they were unable to replicate the issue. No repair was performed any of the times. The safety concern remains unresolved. This continually happens and they yell at me saying there's nothing they could do. To be direct: I am aware that “unable to replicate” is often used to avoid opening warranty claims or authorizing costly repairs. However, this does not resolve the issue, nor does it eliminate the safety risk. The vehicle is demonstrably unsafe when the failure occurs, and the burden should not be shifted onto the customer simply because the issue is intermittent. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled while driving. While accelerating, the vehicle stalled. There was an abnormal revving of the engine while accelerating. The driver pulled over and restarted the vehicle. The engine and oil light warning lights were illuminated. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V080000 (Engine and Engine Cooling); and received the recall notification after the failure. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to reset the system. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer, Tamaroff Nissan Service & Parts (28585 Telegraph Rd, Southfield, MI 48034). The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The contact filed a complaint with the BBB. The failure mileage was approximately 1,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 1,000 |
| Apr 2026 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | ENGINE MALFUNCTION WARNING - LIMP MODE ACTIVATED 6 times within a year of ownership. CAR LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING, RPM NOT RESPONSIVE, SPEED DROPS AND STAYS AROUND 40 MILES PER HOUR. RECALLS HAVE BEEN “ADDRESSED” BUT NO REMEDY. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | On two separate occasions, my 2023 Nissan Rogue has experienced major loss of power while driving 80 mph. The first time, all of the dash lights were blinking and there was an awful noise coming from the engine. I could not drive over 10 mph. The vehicle had to be towed 200 miles to the nearest Nissan dealer in Billings, MT. They cleared the codes, test drove it and said everything was fine. The second time my vehicle had to be towed. 115 miles from the nearest Nissan dealer. Same issues, except this time there were no dash lights. Prior to all of this happening, my car had an open recall for the 1.5L VC-Turbo engine that my car has. Since the first time this occurred and Nissan "fixed" the problem, there has been no open recall. With the second occurance, Nissan had to replace the Throttle Actuator and Gaskets according to the invoice. Luckily, I had purchased my own extended warranty and that warranty covered $1,104.20 of the $1,204.20 (I paid $100 co-pay). I was charged $715 for towing from Nissan Roadside Assistance. The invoice claims the Nissan found the following diagnostic results: DTC P0507-00 Wwhich is directly linked to a fractured internal gear in the Electric Throttle Control Actuator, the subject of NHTSA Recall 26V081 and DTC P0196 which is directly linked to engine oil temperature performance, the precursor to engine bearing seizures addressed in NHTSA Recall 26V080. Nissan is currently excluding many 2023 models from the "official" recall list. My car has 67,350 miles on it, but this failure should be covered by Nissan's 10-year/120,000-mile extended powertrain warranty. The parts replaced (throttle actuator and gaskets) and the diagnostic codes are identical to those in the 2026 expanded recall populations. Denying coverage based on an "open recall" statis is a violation of the spirit of the NHTSA safety mandates for this engine. I am formally requesting/demanding reimbursment from Nissan North America for the $815 that I have been charged. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ENGINE | There is a recall on my vehicle and I took it to the local Nissan dealer Jones Nissan Bel Air, Md. 21014 and they said their manager called Nissan and they told them there’s no recall on my vehicle but it keeps showing up in the system that there is. At this point I don’t know who to believe and I want a vehicle that is safe and reliable. The dealership said they ran tests on it and nothing comes up and they are saying it’s fine. I’m just very skeptical at this point and are considering getting rid of the vehicle. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Fuel smell in the cab of the vehicle. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | My light came on it said engine malfunction reduced speed service now I checked online for recalls found one and “got it fixed” I left the dealership and had to turn back as the light came back on got it “fixed again” I left later that day my transmission light came on and reduced speed I brought it back to dealership they then kept my car for almost two weeks “fixed the problem again” 3 days later had to bring it back a 2 days later got it back and now tomorrow I have to bring it back. Major safety issue my life is in danger every time I drive as it sporadically reduces speed to under 10 miles an hour I do not feel safe I can’t drive on the highway could you imagine if that happens with people driving 70 plus miles an hour behind me I will die and this needs to be addressed asap. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | On 2/14/26 my car decelerated on the interstate. No warning lights came on. I parked the car and had it towed the next day to the dealership. Several days later they told me I needed a new engine, and then later told me that Nissan would not replace the engine but told them I need the EGR Cooling System replaced and that would resolve my problem. 3 weeks later I picked up my car (3722) and immediately upon driving it off the lot the car started smoking. Once home, it decelerated again prompting another tow back to the dealership on the same day I picked it up. During that time, dashboard and engine lights came on. 3 days later I received a phone call from the dealership stating I need a new EGR sensor which should have been done the first time but was not (by a less experienced mechanic), for free, and the part would be in tomorrow 3/12/26. He also stated that now the car is running extremely rough and knocking (which I told him has not been our experience at all and I did not know what he was talking about). He then went on to say it needs motor mounts now. That was 2 weeks ago. Since then I have called multiple times to get status updates on my car and no one will return my call. My car has now been there for 40 days as of today. I have been given a 120,000 mile warranty extension on my engine per Nissan, but Nissan refuses to fix it and my car is not listed as part of the new recall, which I do not understand at all. Nissan needs to replace my engine as first diagnosed but reneged on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2026 | ENGINE | After a routine oil change, the check engine light came on and would not go off. Soon after the idling warning came on, blinking and indicating a system malfunction. The vehicle has been inspected by the Nissan dealership in my area and the piston has been damaged in the engine. This has put my family and myself at risk of having possible engine failure and possible car accident. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I was going about 30 mph and slowing to turn into my driveway, when my rear window exploded, I thought someone shot it out. I went to dealership and they said it's not covered by my warranty and that they have heard of this happening. So Nissan knows this is a problem yet they refuse to recall it. I've had the car 1 month, I purchased it on February 23, 2026 and this occurred on March 24, 2026. I'm also aware that there is a class action suit against them for this problem, they are trying to say it's wear and tear. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ENGINE | Case #XXX for my 2023 Nissan Rogue SL VIN [XXX] . The vehicle is subject to Recall Code R25D1 (ROGUE MY21-23 KR ENG XXX), involving CVT bearing deterioration and metallic debris circulating within the engine. My vehicle has exhibited rough operation and was inspected at Wood Nissan in Lee’s Summit, where no defect was acknowledged.

| Mar 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I am reporting a premature corrosion issue on my Nissan Rogue with approximately 25,000 miles. Rust has developed on the roof panel, which is highly unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The vehicle was purchased in early December 2025. To my knowledge, this condition was not disclosed by the selling dealer, CarMax, along with other issues identified after purchase. To the best of my knowledge, the vehicle has been properly maintained and not involved in any accidents, as none were reported or disclosed. The rust appears to be developing under or through the paint, suggesting a defect in factory paint or corrosion protection. I first brought the vehicle to Mossy Nissan on February 11, 2026, and was referred to their body shop, which completed a report on February 12, 2026. However, the dealership did not submit the claim to Nissan until March 4, 2026, causing a delay. After submission, I was contacted about a week later for mileage. Despite multiple follow-ups from me, there was no timely response. I was asked again to bring the vehicle for inspection, which I did promptly. After these delays, I was informed the claim was denied without a satisfactory explanation. Given the roof location and the vehicle’s condition, this raises concerns about a possible manufacturing defect and the claims process. Premature corrosion may affect long-term integrity and value. I request this be investigated as a defect in materials or workmanship and that Nissan provide an appropriate repair. I also request review of whether this condition should have been disclosed at the time of sale. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The most recent incident the emergency brake locked on and the dash flashed system malfunction , maintenance needed, , emergency braking system shut down and several indicators were shut down . This continued for 90 minutes while I was on the phone with Nissan and was waiting for the tow truck when arriving at Nissan 72 miles away , they were not able to find any codes and the car was fine no issues . Luckily I have video to back my story . I have pictures and videos of other times it has done this , but no one will look into why it keeps doing this and it’s done it several time over 2 1/2 years . They changed the stop /start button and it helped but now it’s starting to flash the emergency braking system is off again which is a build up to a major episode again. My rogue has less than 40, 000 miles on it and has been one issue like this after another with them slapping band aides on it and not finding the source of the problem. They even claim it cleared the bearing failure test but the test was preformed while it was on route to Nissan on a tow truck . | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ENGINE | I am reporting a safety issue with my 2023 Nissan Rogue Platinum involving engine failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for repairs under warranty and remained there for approximately 8 months. I was only provided a loaner vehicle for one month during this time. After finally receiving the vehicle back, the engine is still not running properly and the issue appears unresolved. An engine malfunction or loss of power while driving could create a serious safety risk. Given the extended repair time and unresolved defect, I believe this issue should be reviewed for safety concerns. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
