Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured March 7, 2007, to November 26, 2013, and 2014 Nissan Rogue Select vehicles manufactured September 23, 2013, to July 2, 2014. The affected vehicles may experience an electrical short in the harness connector due to a mixture of snow/water and salt seeping through the carpet on the driver side floor near the harness connector.
An electrical short can cause a vehicle fire.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the kick panel wiring harness connector and will if necessary install a new harness connector and waterproof seal, free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2012 MURANO AND ROGUE VEHICLES, MANUFACTURED FROM NOVEMBER 23, 2011 THROUGH JANUARY 11, 2012. DURING ASSEMBLY, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WAS NOT ACTIVATED. THUS, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 138,TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM.
A NON-ACTIVE TPMS CANNOT WARN A DRIVER THAT A TIRE IS UNDERINFLATED. UNDERINFLATED TIRES CAN RESULT IN TIRE OVERLOADING AND OVERHEATING, WHICH COULD LEAD TO A BLOWOUT AND POSSIBLE CRASH.
ALL OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES ARE STILL IN DEALER INVENTORY. DEALERS HAVE BEEN INSTRUCTED TO ACTIVATE ALL OF THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS.

WHILE PULLING OUT ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY, MY TRANSMISSION STALLED, AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE MY VEHICLE, CAUSING ME TO ALMOST BE REAR ENDED BY A LOGGING TRUCK GOING 65MPH OR MORE. THE RPM'S OF THE VEHICLE WILL JUMP TO OVER 5000 WHILE TRYING TO PUSH ON THE GAS WITHOUT ACCELERATION. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH NISSAN TO HAVE DIAGNOSTIC TESTING DONE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS THE PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, COSTING $5,000. THEY INFORMED ME THAT I NEEDED ANOTHER PART (SOME KIND OF TRANSMISSION COOLER) TO KEEP THE TRANSMISSION FROM OVERHEATING, WHICH WAS NEVER COMMUNICATED TO ME THROUGHOUT MY OWNERSHIP. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THAT IN 2010, NISSAN EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY TO 5 YEARS/120,000 MILES DUE THIS CVT PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKEN TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE DEALERSHIP WHO STATED THAT WARRANTY IS FOR MODEL YEAR 2010 AND OLDER AND THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. HOWEVER, I BEG TO DIFFER. ATTEMPTING TO PULL OUT INTO MOVING TRAFFIC, CROSSING INTERSECTIONS, AND CARS STALLING OUT IN THE WINTER IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENTS AND DEATHS. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS OFFICE WITHOUT ANY RESPONSE. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS ISSUE BE INVESTIGATED AND CONSIDERED FOR A RECALL.
Power train, Sep 14, 2015
THE POWER TRAIN FAILED TO PROVIDE POWER TO THE VEHICLE ON THE INTERSTATE, I HAD TO SLOW DOWN ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE TIL POWER CAME BACK WHEN I SHIFTED IT TO NEUTRAL, THEN BACK TO DRIVE. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND FOUND THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION THEY PUT IN THE VEHICLE WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS AND NO RECALL WAS MADE. THEY ASSERTED THAT MY WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THIS TELLS ME THAT THEY ONLY MAKE A CAR THAT LAST 85K MILES THEN YOU HAVE TO REPLACE A MAIN PART OF THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THIS WAS ALSO UNSAFE ON THE ROAD DUE TO IT LOSING POWER DUE TO POOR QUALITY OF PARTS. MY VEHICLE IS ONLY JUST HITTING 3 YEARS OLD. I DID HOWEVER MADE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT AND HAVING TO PAY FOR A USED TRANSMISSION TO BE PUT IN.

I HAVE ONLY HAD MY USED. NISSAN ROGUE FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF. I ALWAYS KEEP UP WITH THE MAINTENANCE. I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM AS I WAS DRIVING FROM DALLAS, TX UP TO OKLAHOMA CITY, OK. ABOUT ONE HOUR INTO THE DRIVE UP TO OKLAHOMA, THE SPEED BEGAN TO DROP WITHOUT ANY NOTICE, AND FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE VIHECHLE WAS NOT OVER HEATING, AND I HAD ORIGINALLY SET THE CRUISE CONTROL AT ABOUT 70 MPH. AS CARS WERE PASSING BY, IT SLOWLY BEGAN TO DECREASE IT'S ACCELERATION. NO MATTER HOW MUCH I STEPPED ON THE GAS IT WOULD NOT GO UP IN SPEED. I WAS NOT EVEN GOING UP HILL AT THIS POINT. THE SPEED LIMIT MUST HAVE BEEN AT ABOUT 70 MPH AND MY ROGUE'S SPEED KEPT DECREASING AND OTHER CARS, AND 18-WHEELERS KEPT PASSING US. TO THE POINT WHERE IT WAS ONLY GOING 35 MPH. I HAD TO STOP AND PULL OVER FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND THEN IT BEGAN WORKING NORMAL. I FIRST THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A ONE TIME THING. NOW AFTER A FEW TRIPS IT HAS BECAME A REAL PROBLEM. I AM GOING TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT BY NISSAN. TODAY ON MY WAY TO WORK (ABOUT A 40 MIN. DRIVE FROM HOME) AS I GOT OFF THE FREEWAY I CAME TO A FULL STOP AT A RED LIGHT, ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN MY CAR WAS STILL ON BUT IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL FOR AT LEAST 20 SECONDS. I HAD TO TURN MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON TO LET THE CARS BEHIND ME PASS ME. WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY USED ROGUE I MADE A DRIVE FROM DALLAS TX, TO NEW ORLEANS, LA. AND I HAD NO PROBLEMS. NOT EVEN A YEAR LATER I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION, AND JUST TWO DAYS AGO I HEARD AA STRANGE RATTLING NOISE. I FINALLY HAVE SOME TIME OFF TOMORROW AND I AM GOING TO GET SOME ANSWERS AND SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN NEEDS TO GET THIS FIXED, THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM!

2012 NISSAN ROGUE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE ACCELERATING ON A 2 LANE MERGE FROM ONE INTERSTATE ONTO ANOTHER PUTTING THE OCCUPANTS AT RISK WHILE ATTEMPTING TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. NISSAN HAS A LONG STANDING ISSUE WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION THAT ALLEGEDLY WAS RESOLVED AFTER A REDESIGN. NISSAN ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE (NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY D/T MILEAGE BUT DECLINED TO APPLY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WAS IN PLACE FOR EARLIER MODELS). DEALER REPAIRED AT A COST OF 1/4 OF THE VEHICLE COST WAS FOR A REBUILD, WARRANTY FOR THIS ONLY COVERS 1 YEAR/12K. NOT MUCH COMFORT REGARDING LONGEVITY OR PERSONAL SAFETY WITHIN THIS VEHICLE.

DRIVING AT 70 MPH GOING UPHILL THE CAR, WITH NO WARNING OR INDICATION, SLOWED DOWN TO 25 MPH. PRESS THE PEDAL FULLY WOULD NOT MAKE THE CAR GO ANY FASTER. IT WAS IN THE SUMMER SO IT WAS VERY HOT IN CALIFORNIA. WHEN YOU ON THE FREEWAY WITH TWO BABIES THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS YOUR CAR SLOWING DOWN TO 25 MPH. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT NEEDS A TRANSMISSION COOLER. IT TOOL 3 MONTHS FOR THEM TO GET THE PART. THEY INSTALLED IT IN THE WINTER AND OF COURSE IT IS NOT HOT ANYMORE. THIS SUMMER WE DROVE OUT TO ARIZONA DURING A RECORD HIGH HEAT WAVE AND ONCE AGAIN THIS TIME DRIVING 75 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, IT DISENGAGED AND I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR DOWN AND THE CAR SLOW TO 60MPH ON FLAT GROUND. THEN ON A SLIGHT INCLINE THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO 45MPH IN A 70MPH ZONE. OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT WITH MY FAMILY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR A CAR THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. SO I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID SORRY WE CANNOT HELP YOU. THEY DO NOT EVEN OWN UP TO A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR! NISSAN ROGUE 2012 TEST DRIVE THEM IN THE HOTTEST PART OF THE SUMMER AND I WOULD RECOMMEND TO DRIVE IT UPHILL DURING THIS TIME.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. THE CAR STARTED TO DECELERATE FROM ABOUT 68 MPH DOWN TO 40 MPH. I WAS PRESSING THE PEDAL DOWN MORE AND MORE TO TRY AND ACCELERATE BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IT JUST KEPT GOING SLOWER AND SLOWER AS THE MINUTES PASSED BY. SOON I WAS DRIVING SLOWER THAN THE BIG SEMI'S AND I HAD TO PULL TO THE LAST LANE (SLOWEST LANE) BECAUSE I COULD NOT KEEP UP WITH THE REGULAR FLOWING TRAFFIC. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENS TO ME. I HAD THIS PROBLEM LAST YEAR AND NISSAN HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. NOW WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION AND 30,000 MILES INTO IT, THE SAME THING IS BEGINNING TO HAPPEN. I TRULY BELIEVE THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS IN NISSAN ARE DEFECTIVE AND UNRELIABLE. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR FOR 2 HOURS BEFORE THIS PROBLEM BEGINS. EVERYTHING ON THE PANEL INDICATES THAT THE CAR IS PERFORMING FINE BUT THEN IT GOES INTO THIS "AUTO SHUT OFF" MODE AND THE CAR STOPS PERFORMING CORRECTLY.
Fuel/propulsion system, Aug 3, 2015
THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE IS REGARDING THE FUEL GAUGE READING INCORRECTLY. FOR EXAMPLE A FULL TANK WILL GIVE ME A RANGE OF 235 MPG, WHILE IT SHOULD BE OVER 300 MPG. I HAVE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE AWD. 2ND TEST WITH THE TANK HAS 3/4 OF A TANK AND THE RANGE WAS AROUND 189 MPG. I WENT TO NISSAN DEALER AND TESTED SAME YEAR AND MODEL WITH HALF OF A TANK AND GAVE ME 165 MPG. DEALER ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL ON IT. QUOTE FOR REPAIR: $119. TO DIAGNOSE. $420. FOR SENDER UNIT AND SUB-SENDER UNIT (VEHICLE IS AWD) AND $263. FOR LABOR. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON IT TO FIX THAT ISSUE AND NOT TO CHARGE PEOPLE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS.

ACCELERATION PROBLEMS, WHEN STEPPING ON GAS VEHICLE CRAWLS AND WHINING NOISE FROM ENGINE SOUNDING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. HAD IT LOOKED AT WHEN NEW WITH CLUNKING NOISE FROM ENGINE AT DEALER. THEY SAID THEY NOT SEEN ANY PROBLEMS WITH ROGUES AND CLAIMED A ROAD TEST WAS DONE AND NO NOISES WERE HEARD FROM TECHS. NOISES HAVE CONTINUED AND NOW HAVING SEVERE PROBLEMS ACCELERATING TO EVEN 30MPH. PROBLEM SEEMS TO COME AND GO QUITE FREQUENTLY, MOST OCCURRENCES HAPPEN AFTER A LONG ROAD TRIP. VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY, INCLUDING TRANSMISSION FLUIDS AND OIL CHANGES AS RECOMMENDED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO WHERE DEALERS CLAIM NOTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLES. DOES A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH HAVE TO HAPPEN TO FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. GOOGLE SEARCHES WILL SHOW MANY FORUMS OF SAME COMPLAINTS... *JS

LOST POWER GOING UPHILL ON A FREEWAY. COULD NOT GET OFF THE FREEWAY AS I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE. CAR MADE WHINING SOUNDS BUT WOULD NOT GO UPHILL. I WAS PRESSING GAS WITH NO EFFECT JUST NOISE. TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE LANE CAUSING BACK UP. GLADLY I HAD CELLPHONE SIGNAL AND WAS ABLE TO CALL A TOW. THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE ON THE NEW VEHICLE WITH 8K MILES. AFTER THE TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP IT STARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY. GOOD THING THAT DEALER WAS CLOSED AND I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TEST IT. I WILL TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER FOR CHECK UP BUT NEW CARS SHOULD NOT LOOSE POWER LIKE THAT ON THE FREEWAY. *TR
