Bought a 2022 Nissan Rouge on 9/2024 from Car Dealer. In November 2024, the car would not start. Jump start worked so we thought it might be battery related so bought a New Battery. AND Took it back to the dealer in the same month November 2024 as i was worried about the car shutting down in the middle of the highway and can't restart. DANGEROUS. The Car Dealer did an inspection(or so they said) and said no problems with the car but they would not give me a printout to confirm. Said that their printer and email was not working. Fast forward, May 2025, while DRIVING the car on [XXX] , it started shaking and shut off. . This time, it would not RESTART. Had it jump started several times but NOTHING worked. SO I Had to tow the 2022 Nissan Rouge from there to the Nissan Dealer Servicing (Springfield, NJ) THEN I found out about the recalls and about the electrical problems and with THE ROUGE NOT STARTING. AND As per Nissan Servicing center in Springfield, NJ, The engine is completely shot and needs to be replaced. Total cost $14000. AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT so i had it towed back to my driveway where it has been sitting BECAUSE THE SUV IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL and i do not have $14000 to pay for a new engine. I bought the Nissan Rouge for $18000 only 8 months ago and have only added $5000 miles since and have a active car loan. ALSO THE VEHICLE DID NOT GIVE ANY TYPE OF WARNING SIGNAL/MESSAGES/NOTIFICATION BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN COMPLETELY before shutting off. I have INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving and accelerating from 60 to 70mph the engine chugged, lost power. I was thankfully able to get to the side of the road safely and my child was not in the vehicle. As soon as I got it to the side of the road the engine emissions malfunction, the low oil pressure and both safe indicator lights for the rear and front crash came on. A message popped up stating: emissions malfunction power reduced service immediately. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership. As on currently, almost a week later, the dealership still does not know what happened.

Driving vehicle around 60 mph. Heard load knocking noise coming from engine then vehicle instantly lost power. Engine reduced power came across display and it had virtually no power to get to side of road. I called dealer and I they said I would have to pay to tow it there and pay to diagnose engine problem because I was out of warranty. Got vehicle towed back to my house by myself. Load knocking noise heard from engine.

Complete engine failure. My wife broke down on the side of the road. Was told it was a Turbo Charger failure that then allowed coolant to get into the engine. Was further told it needs a new Turbo Charger Assembly as well as various other parts for the engine that were damaged as a result. Happened with only 39k miles on the vehicle.

Related to PE23-023. 2022 Nissan Rogue with 77,000 miles first lost heating ability and then would stall and not start. Problem was diagnosed by an ASE Certified shop/tech. Diagnostic inspection revealed 2 quarts of coolant missing and contamination in the cylinders. To start the recommendation was to replace the EGR Cooler and Turbo, after reviewing similar complaints, I have chosen not to do the repairs as it doesn't sounds like it will fix the root cause and I am not inclined to replace the motor, turbo, Egr etc only for this to occur again. I plan to trade out of this vehicle at a significant financial loss and replace it to ensure the safety of my family. I would like to be a part of the investigation, if in the future Nissan is held accountable for this engineering failure I may be able to recoup some of my financial hardship.

Our vehicle stalled once while idle at an ATM. Upon restart we brought it to our local mechanic for investigation, they diagnosed the issue as a Turbo Sensor problem costing about $700. They recommended bringing it to Nissan for further review rather than charge us for the repair. We picked up the vehicle the next day and brought it to our local Nissan dealership where they confirmed it was in face the turbo causing the issue. After discovering this and quoting us a repair of $7,200 they did a pressure test overnight only to discover there was coolant leaking into the engine and that a new block will now need to be installed for the vehicle to work. The new cost is $11,500 to repair. The vehicle is a 2022 Nissan Rogue that we are the only owners with regular maintenance. When we dropped off the vehicle at both locations there was no check engine light on and there were no signs of engine failure. The Sales Manager went to check the vehicle and confirmed the engine no longer works.

Engine: Ever since purchasing my rogue i had to take it to the dealership 3 separate times for engine mounts to be replaced due to shaking when car is idle. Electrical: Camera system stops working all of a sudden at 50k miles and unable to use reverse camera and will not work when clicking on camera button. This has been a known issue affecting personal vehicles and being discussed all online.

I was driving and began hearing knocking sounds from under the hood. The car began dragging, so I was afraid to go at any speed over 25 or 30. I was almost home and it was night, so I resolved to go to the mechanic by my house the next morning. When I set out to go to the repair shop, the car was knocking louder, and I did not go more than a mile before the car stalled at a stoplight. It shuddered and then cut off. I tried to restart it, but it kept coming on and going off right after. I was in the turning lane, and had on my hazard lights, but several motorists still came up close behind me and honked their horns for me to move. This happened about a dozen times before the tow truck arrived. One man came up beside me, yelling and making gestures (I kept my window up and ignored him). I called AAA and was towed about a mile to the shop. The shop owner checked the oil to see if I had run out of oil - I had not. He then said to have it towed to Nissan because it was under warranty and the “engine is done.” He said that due to the sounds he heard coming from the engine. Days later (it was Saturday, and Nissan was not open Saturday or Sunday) I had it towed to Nissan and they have yet to diagnose the problem, after several days.

I have had significant problems with this car. Within the first month, I had to replace the battery. In September 2024 the car went from 70 mph to 40 mph with no warning and then the engine malfunction lights came on. It was supposedly fixed by Jeff Wyler Nissan Colerain. In October of 2024 the exact same thing occurred. We went from 70 mph to 40 mph and were stranded for hours yet again. Jeff Wyler Nissan Eastgate supposedly fixed the problem this time with new electrical components. Most recently, in December of 2024, the exact thing occurred AGAIN. We went from 70 to 40 and had to have the car towed for the third time in three months and the fourth time in 2 years. It is currently at Jeff Wyler Eastgate again - supposedly waiting on a temperature component - which they think is the engine problem. All of these incidences occurred on a highway and could have had devastating consequences.

On December 14. 2024 at approximately 8:45pm, as I was going up hill, my RPMS shot up to 5,000 RPMs and the rogue began to decelerate. After the RPMs dropped, Engine Malfunction, Speeds Reduced appeared on the dashboard. I found a location to stop off the highway. When I popped the hood, there was oil everywhere, the dipstick had shot out and oil was all over the hood, and the car had a strong pungent smell like burnt gun powder from the exhaust. The car will not start as the engine has blown. Mileage at the time is 38,963. Prior to this, the Check engine light would come on intermittently. It came on again at approximately 8:40pm as I was driving a 28 mile drive home. Since it’s the weekend, I will be calling Nissan Monday morning.

3/25/2023 784 miles and 12 days after purchasing the vehicle The throttle got stuck, cruise was on but not activated, was going 100mgh, hit the brakes, slowed the speed, every time I took my foot off the brake, I was doing 90-100mph. I hit the brakes 5-7 times to try to cancel the cruise even though it was was set. It said "Activate" so it was not on. Then after hitting the brakes repeatedly, I heard a loud kerplunk (metal on metal) sound in the engine behind the brake pedal, and it shut off and drove normally afterwards. 3/30/2023 I accelerated to get on I35 and RPM stuck at 3200 and would not shift in sport mode; I changed to Standard mode and the RPMs dropped to 2000-2100; the engine revved up loud in sport mode. Female Service Manager from Burleson Nissan was in the car at the time of the event. This has happened 3 more times since owning this vehicle. At the advice of my lemon law attorney, I am reporting them separately.

Engine failure at 38,000 miles. Started with a Loss of proper acceleration. Stalled out at stop lights. Failure to start. Vapors coming out of exhaust. Getting too hot. And overheating. These symptoms lasted 2 days before check engine light came on. Leaving me stopped in heavy traffic a few times. And unable to accelerate when I needed to. Dealership is putting in a new engine. Engine is under warranty. However I do not feel safe. Also the gears have slipped out of automatic drive and into 1st gear sporadically while driving. Forcing me to pull over and put the car in park turn off the engine and back on before putting it back in drive to proceed. (I do not know how to drive standard or use my paddles.) This has happened about 4 times since owning the vehicle.

Car engine light came on and the vehicle automatically slowed itself down to 20 mph as I was in a 45 mph zone, with multiple traffic behind me. No warning!! A hazard sign lit and the MIL lit up, saying there is an emissions control system malfunction and to immediately take the car to a repair station. NissanConnect also sent me a text at 5:12 Saturday night, all repair stations closed. This was very dangerous and the system should not have taken over complete control of the car at that very instant, leaving me completely unable to control the car. It was out of the blue, and I’m still shaking.

My 2022 Nissan Rouge S model began experiencing a strong gas smell inside the vehicle. Upon further inspection of the oil dipstick it smells heavily of gas. It has been to the dealership twice with absolutely no help or answers. It has also caused my engine oil levels to rise. I am concerned not only from a monetary stand point but more importantly from a safety standpoint i.e. engine stalls, fires etc.

CVT Low Power light came on 9/10/24. I had it at the dealer within 15 mins. On 9/12/24 I was told I need a new engine. The dealer refused to give details to me and extended the warranty on 9/16/24 as to how/what the exact issue was. The extended warranty closed the case because of this. The dealer told me they declined it and refused to repair it. He suggested that since the car is drivable, I could take it. I spoke with the extended warranty myself to see why. They stated they didn't deny it but closed it because the dealer needed to demonstrate what was wrong with the engine. The advisor eventually told me that all 3 cylinders had low compression. I requested they contact the extended warranty company and have them come again and they demonstrate that to the inspector. On 9/23/24 a request was made for another inspector to check my vehicle. 9/27/24 I called the extended warranty company to see if there was a report from the new inspector. They explained that the dealer showed them the low compression and the next step would be to break the engine down to find the source of the problem because it may not need an entire engine. I made it to the dealership a few hours later to extend my rental and get an update from the advisor. He told me the warranty company was still refusing to do the work. He suggested that since the car was drivable, I should take my vehicle. His only suggestion was to drop the oil pan and see if any metal fell out. This would've been $170-$200. I asked if that would resolve the issues with my vehicle. He stated not necessarily. On 9/27/24 around 4 PM, I requested to have my car moved to the front of the dealership because I had a tow truck on the way. He refused to have the vehicle moved. In the close-out ticket, he stated that the warranty company and customer denied repairs. which is false. No lights/messages ever came on. When I'd bring it for a service, I'd explain it was loud and vibrating. They'd always tell me everything was fine.
