Recalls and investigations
Electrical system, ignition, anti-theft, immobilizer/proximity, key/senderFeb 16, 2023
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014-2020 Rogue and 2017-2022 Rogue Sport vehicles equipped with a jackknife style ignition key. The jackknife key may collapse into a folded position while driving.
Driver contact with a key in the collapsed position could inadvertently shut off the vehicle while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, if the vehicle shuts off while driving, the air bags may not deploy in a crash as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
Dealers will insert a spacer into the key slot of the jackknife key, free of charge. Interim notification letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed March 29, 2023. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 30, 2023. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Nissan's number for this recall is R22C5.

Engine, Jun 16, 2020
MY FIANCES CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IN HER 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. I WANTED TO SEE WHAT PROBLEMS WOULD PRESENT THEMSELVES. UPON TAKING IT FOR A TEST DRIVE RIGHT AWAY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THE ENGINE WAS SHAKING AND COULD BE FELT THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE, SIMILAR TO A COMPLAINT FILED I SAW ON THE WEBSITE (NHTSA ID NUMBER: 11266446). I ALSO NOTICED THAT STRONG FUMES WERE COMING INTO THE CABIN OF VEHICLE AS WELL. DRIVING THE VEHICLE AROUND A FEW BLOCKS I NOTICED IT WAS HAVING A HARD TIME ACCELERATING AND FELT LIKE IT HAD A MISFIRE TO IT AS WELL. I GOT A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE ON THE ROGUE AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE NISSAN ROGUE, BOTH BY CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AUTOMOTIVE AND BY THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE PART ITSELF WOULD COST OVER 400 DOLLARS FROM THE DEALERSHIP IF I WAS TO REPLACE IT MYSELF AND OVER 1200 DOLLARS PARTS AND LABOR IF I LET CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AUTOMOTIVE DO THE WORK. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE REPLACEMENT INTAKE MANIFOLD WAS A NEWER UPDATED MODEL WHICH IS ANOTHER BIG REASON FOR THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE CLEARLY THEY KNOW THIS IS A PROBLEM AND THEY WANT THE CUSTOMERS TO PICK UP THE BILL INSTEAD OF THEM OWNING UP TO THEIR FAULTY TECHNOLOGY AND REPLACING IT THEMSELVES. *TR

Power train, Vehicle speed control, Jun 1, 2020
AT ABOUT 58000 MILES SEPT 2019 I FIRST NOTICED ISSUES WITH ACCELERATION AND NOISE. I WAS ABOUT TO GO OUT OF TOWN AND WAS AFRAID TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK MY CAR TO NISSAN OF BOWIE. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THERE WERE NO CODES ACTIVATED AND NO RECALLS ON THE CAR. HE GAVE ME A LIST OF OTHER CONCERNS FOR MY CAR (BRAKES, ROTORS, AND TIRES). I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP AND DID NOT DRIVE OUT OF TOWN AS PLANNED. MY HUSBAND REPLACED MY ROTORS, BRAKES, AND TIRES. STILL THE CAR WAS SHAKY. NEXT TRIP OUT OF TOWN WAS IN MAY 2020. MY CAR STALLED OUT WHILE WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY TO VISIT MY FAMILY IN KENTUCKY. WE WERE AN HOUR AWAY FROM OUR HOTEL AND DROVE EXTREMELY SLOW. NO DEALERSHIPS WERE OPEN ON SUNDAY. WE TOOK MY CAR TO COYLE NISSAN IN SOUTHERN INDIANA. THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THEY EXPLAINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS COMPLETELY TRASHED AND OUT OF WARRANTY. I TRIED TO SEE IF MY INSURANCE COMPANY WOULD COVER IT. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN AT THIS LOCATION TOLD MY INSURANCE COMPANY THERE IS NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE TO DAMAGE THE TRANSMISSION. IT GOES OUT ON ITS OWN. THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS. I CALLED THE NISSAN WARRANTY PEOPLE TO GET SUPPORT. THEY AGREED TO PAY PARTS AND NOT LABOR. WHILE I WAS STRANDED OUT OF TOWN AND STUCK IN A HOTEL, I HAD TO PAY 2000 DOLLARS FOR LABOR TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD AND RETURN TO MARYLAND. I FILED A BBB AUTOLINE COMPLAINT AND THEY SAID THEY ONLY HELP WITH CARS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. MY SECOND TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN ON MAY 14TH AND WENT OUT LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LATER ON MAY 27TH. I NOTICED ISSUES THIS TIME AS SOON AS WE HEADED TO MARYLAND. IT STALLED OUT COMPLETELY WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE. I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS CAR AND AM ON A THIRD TRANSMISSION. THERE WAS A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST NISSAN FOR THE EXACT TRANSMISSION IN 2019 ON OTHER MODELS. *TR
