Engine, Feb 15, 2026
While driving on the freeway, the car started to feel like it was requiring more pressure on the gas. Heading to an exit ramp, as more gas that was pressed, white smoke suddenly started to come out of the exhaust and even into the passenger compartment (presumably from the engine) and just as it neared an exit ramp , the car lost all power... incredibly dangerous with other cars beginning to line up behind the car. Then the gear shift could not go into neutral so the car could be pushed to a safe location. When the Auto Club associate arrived, he was able to get the car in neutral and tow it to the local Nissan dealer (Van Nuys, CA).

There is an open recall for this car model for many months now. I received official notices of the recall. However when I took the car to the Nissan dealership to be serviced, they stated the manufacturer had not provided them with a fix for this engine problem recall and they were unable to address the issue. The car therefore is still being driven for me and my family without the engine problem being fixed or addressed.

My Rogue had an engine failure in 2024. This caused the car not slow down and not accelerate on highway and could have caused an accident. Entire engine and turbo and replaced at 71276 miles. In 2025 another incident happened where the car lost power on the interstate in left lane, I had to move my car to right side of road in busy traffic. This could have also been a major accident, and put my family at risk. I left the car at another dealer as I was on vacation. This time the EGR valve, EGR sensor had to be replaced as well as all catalytic converters at 97018 and 97282 miles I received the recall notice after all of this in the mail about the engine recall on this Rogue and Nissan is failing to reimburse me for any of the repairs for the engine and other parts replacement. They are saying that the repairs are not related to the recall. I have heard from my dealer and other sources that several of these Rogue engines are failing similar to what mine did. I do not believe Nissan is doing enough to resolve the issue with these cars.

They said the vehicle transmission mount is leaking and need to be replaced as it is causing a vibration. The vehicle is only 53,000 Miles. The vehicle went there for a recall on the engine and i guess if this is not a result of the defect on the engine. I called to get more info and the technician stated that multiple vehicle came in with the same failure. That's why i am reporting the issue to have it investigated and find out if it is from Nissan. The pricing is $1190.41.

Blinking lights on dashboard, notified Nissan, they stated they knew of recall, but didn't know how to resolve yet, engineers were working on the issue, they stated when it breaks down just bring it in. Car engine light blinks, all warning lights blink, car stops immediately while pulling into to drive way. Lights appeared 1 day ago, then drove ok. Started car this morning to go to work, 4 miles away pulled in and car started blinking all emergency lights, Quickly called Nissan they were closed to due to holiday. Emergency lites are check engine light, FEB light, MASTER warning light, AEB lights , Malfunction Indicator light (MIL). RAB light, the start button contents blink when all theses lights are blinking. The fact that Nissan told me to wait till it breaks down, or they would call me to fix recall when they know how is irresponsible .

A whole lot of mess! I recently bought my 2022 nissan rogue in May of 2025. We took it to the regular oil change and check ups and nothing concerning came up. We got mail for a recall and I brought it in and the Nissan dealership in Elk Grove, Ca turned us down and said "it was not in their system yet." So, took it again and still the same answer. Well in November before thanksgiving, we started the car and white chemical smell of smoke came out which was the coolant. We towed it to our own mechanic because these dealerships will screw you. Now it's been a whole month that our car has been sitting at the mechanics. Engine was torn apart, everything was all broken and needed to be replaced. My mechanic called the dealership and said they will not pay for it even if it was their issue. Now I'm trying to get my warranty to pay for it since I purchased it. I will not be paying the $10,000 to get that vehicle fixed. I will be seeking an attorney for this lemon car.

The vehicle, a 2022 Nissan Rogue with the 1.5L VC-Turbo engine, suddenly entered severe limp mode: unable to exceed 35-40 mph on flat roads, barely 10 mph on hills, with high RPM and noise. The malfunction indicator light illuminated along with "engine malfunction service now" message and triangle warning light. These symptoms exactly match the early warning signs in safety recall 25V-437 for defective engine bearings that can cause progressive degradation, engine damage, or failure.The vehicle was towed to an authorized Nissan dealer, who performed the recall inspection (oil pan drop) but reportedly found no metal debris. The dealer then diagnosed separate issues—oil temperature sensor, coolant temperature sensor replacement, full oil pan replacement for minor seepage, and other warning lights—and quoted approximately $1,900 in customer-paid repairs, claiming they are unrelated to the recall or warranty despite the symptoms aligning precisely with the recall's description of bearing-related limp mode.This created a safety risk due to sudden loss of motive power while driving, increasing the potential for a crash. As a full-time cancer researcher and PhD student who depends on this vehicle for daily lab commuting and time-sensitive experiments, the breakdown and repair dispute have caused major hardship: over a week without transportation, extensive time coordinating tows, appointments, and escalations with Nissan Consumer Affairs, and disruption to critical research.The dealer confirmed the limp mode and warnings, and inspected the vehicle under the recall procedure. Warning lamps/messages appeared suddenly prior to towing; no unusual noises noted earlier. The affected components (engine controls/sensors potentially stressed by the bearing defect) remain at the dealer for inspection.The recall should provide free ECM reprogramming, oil change, and gasket replacement even without debris, yet the dealer is charging for diagnostics and repairs from the same defect.

I was advised by the dealership that my EGR cooler needs replaced due to it failing. My car was acting like it was going to stall out on several different occasions and the malfunction warning light would also come on. The car would have no heat due to all the antifreeze leaking out. I have white smoke coming out of the tailpipe with a strong odor. I’ve had the car maybe 6 months! There are a lot of complaints regarding this issue that have been fixed under the latest engine recall but I’m being told I have to pay for it to be fixed. I find it odd there’s so many people with the same issue and is being rectified due to the engine recall

While driving at highway speed, the vehicle suddenly lost all engine power without warning and rapidly decelerated in traffic. This created a severe safety risk, and the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The issue was later connected to open recall R25A8, involving engine bearing failure and sudden loss of power. The dealership confirmed that no inspection procedure or repair remedy exists and stated that they have no timeline for when Nissan will provide one. Despite this, the dealer returned the vehicle to me and claimed it was safe to drive, even though the problem remains unresolved. Nissan Consumer Affairs refuses to communicate in writing and only provides verbal phone calls. Each time they call, they state that they will “provide an update in three days,” but no real progress or written documentation has been provided. Meanwhile, I am left with a vehicle that experienced a complete loss of power on the freeway and remains unsafe to operate. Independent diagnostics showed multiple critical fault codes involving the engine, ECM, ABS pump motor, and brake control modules. Warning lights appeared only after the failure; there were no warnings prior to the incident. The safety defect is ongoing, unresolved, and there is currently no available remedy from the manufacturer, leaving the vehicle unsafe and posing continued riskI am requesting a full buyback of the vehicle with compensation for all related losses. I have already communicated this request to Nissan, and as mentioned above, they only call with delayed updates and do not resolve the issue.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED UNUSUAL ENGINE NOISES, ROUGH ENGINE PERFORMANCE, ILLUMINATION OF THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL), AND WARNING MESSAGES DISPLAYED IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE ENGINE HAS FAILED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, RESULTING IN A LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER TWICE, ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY. I have been to the dealership mechanic 3 times with this issue, the first occurred prior to the recall coming out. The Last time I was told to pay for a diagnostic or they would not be able to help me; I paid and was told they could not find anything relevant to my issue. I was just told that there was no further information occurring from this recall. I feel as if the car is almost undrivable. It is definitely unsafe and unreliable. And a car constantly revs at 6000 RPM's prior to switching gears if it switches gears. At this point I don't know what to do and regret buying a Nissan as they won't even help.

I am filing a complaint regarding my 2022 Nissan Rogue SV AWD, which has an active safety recall with no available remedy. I was unaware of this recall at the time of lease, as the dealer did not inform me. After confirming the recall, I also found that it cannot currently be repaired. When I notified the dealer about the recall, they dismissed my concerns and hung up the phone, when I was trying to address the issue, and come to find out, the sales man who sold me the vehicle doesn’t even work there anymore and I could t contact him at all.

Losing power with the vehicle, 6 weeks ago, and have been told that the turbo package has to be replaced. In checking with the part replacement, it’s on back order from the manufacturer and no firm date has been given by Dealership on when this will be resolved. This occurred with no check engine light or warning system alerting me. Was unable to drive faster than 40 mph, putting me and my family at risk of being involved in a serious accident for those able to drive faster than we were. There is a current recall on the engine with no remedy per the dealership and corporate representive but they consider the “turbo package” not part of the engine? Concerned with the turbo package on back order that there are more vehicles experiencing the same problem that I am having and that there maybe some “cover up” by the manufacturer and want to make sure that this is being investigated. Please advise next steps

While driving, multiple warning lights appeared on the dashboard, including the check engine light, malfunction indicator, and crash sensor warnings. A message then displayed: “ENGINE MALFUNCTION POWER REDUCED SERVICE NOW.” The engine began making loud knocking noises, lost power, and the vehicle entered reduced-power mode. The issue appears to be related to the ongoing engine bearing failure recall (R25A8 / 25V-437) affecting Nissan vehicles with VC-Turbo engines. Because of these symptoms and the risk of complete engine failure or loss of motive power, the vehicle became unsafe to drive and was parked. The problem poses a serious safety risk, as the loss of power occurred suddenly while the vehicle was in motion, which could cause an accident if it happens in traffic. The problem has not yet been repaired because the manufacturer has not released the full recall remedy. I called the Nissan Dealership in Greeneville TN, at 8:53 AM EST on 11/08/2025 the vehicle is currently parked at my residence. I was advised by the dealership to call back on Monday morning to schedule an inspection at a Nissan dealership. Warning lights and the “Engine Malfunction Power Reduced” message first appeared shortly before the loud knocking began and power loss occurred on the vehicle.

While driving my 2022 Nissan Rogue, the engine suddenly shut off without warning and the vehicle would not restart. There is an active engine recall, but Nissan has not provided a repair or parts for several months. This unexpected loss of power put my family’s safety and mine at risk, as the incident could have caused a serious accident if it had occurred in traffic or on a freeway. The dealer confirmed the recall but cannot complete the repair until Nissan provides instructions. No warning lights appeared before the failure, though the Lane Departure and Collision Warning lights came on after the stall.
