Fuel/propulsion system, May 22, 2023
I am joining the many others in reporting a very strong fuel order (raw gasoline) that enters the cabin and when parked in the garage, spews tons of raw gasoline fume, which I believe could eventually cause fire/explosion. This makes the SUV very difficult to be inside and drive. We do have the 3cyl turbo engine. Current mileage is approximately 3200. Dealer reports unable to verify and cannot proceed due to the SUV being in "engineering status".

I have leased this vehicle since May 13, 2022. Soon after taking delivery, I started to notice a faint smell of gasoline every day when it is enclosed in my garage. The smell has been getting stronger and I am very concerned. There have been times when I can now smell the gasoline when I enter my car when it has been parked outside. I did take it back to my dealer and informed them of my concern. They told me there was no viable leaks and said Nissan is aware of the problem but there is no fix at this time. My dealership has tried to assure me that the vehicle is safe. I have gone on Nissan Rogue owner forums and many owners have the same complaint but no resolution. This morning the smell of gasoline in my garage was very strong. How can this be safe for my health and for the risk of fire?

Vehicle smells of strong gas smell in the cab and around the vehicle. Smell is so strong it makes you feel light headed and gives you a headache. This is a huge health concern for me. When parking in the garage it smells so strong that you have to then park it outside for a couple hours after driving so you do not have a fire hazard in the garage. Took it to the dealership to have diagnosed and was told that they can't find a problem however now I'm see reports that Nissan is aware of the issue and it is under engineering review but there is nothing they can do at this time. I then reached out to Nissan consumer affairs which was absolutely no help at all. This is a huge safety and health concern for me.

I smell gas inside my car. I take the car to the dealer they check everything but they say they can’t fix it. They know about the leak and they say it’s hopping on the Nissan’s 2022 and 2023 . They know about the problem with those cars but they still sell sold them to the people.

Gas fumes leaking into cabin. Garage smells like gas when vehicle is parked there. Nissan has no idea what causes this.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 2, 2023
The vehicle has a very strong raw gasoline smell after driving. The smell is very noticeable both outside and inside of the cabin. This condition is becoming more frequent the more it’s driven. The odor is strong enough to make the driver lightheaded and nauseous.The vehicle was purchased new. Dealership is unable to diagnose and Nissan corporate continuously refers this issue back to the dealership.

There is a very strong gas smell in the cabin coming through the vents. Opening windows doesn't help as it is outside the vehicle as well. It smells like gasoline is actually covering the vehicle. Causes nausea & ightheadedness. Worried for health from breathing in the fumes and fire risk. Nissan service changed evap canister and problem persists. I bought the vehicle brand new and is an unresolved issue.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 13, 2023
There is a strong smell of gasoline in the garage after I park my Rogue in it. We can smell it in the house. There is also the strong smell of gasoline in the cab when the car is idling, like when waiting in line or at a stop sign. This is not exhaust, it’s fuel. I’ve had it checked once already during an oil change and am taking it back again tomorrow. This can’t be safe to my health. Am also afraid it will set my house down on fire. Please help.

We bought our 2022 Rogue in September 2022, it now has around 5300 miles on it. In December, we noticed that every time we drive it, the inside of the car fills with gas fumes. The fumes are so strong that it gives us extreme headaches, dizziness and nausea. When we park the Rogue in our garage, it creates a strong gas smell. We are concerned that it could explode or cause a fire. The vehicle was taken to Ron Sayer Nissan in Idaho Falls, Idaho on February 4, 2023 for diagnosis. The service manager, [XXX], informed us after examining the vehicle that he did not know what is causing the strong gasoline odor. The dealership did nothing to repair the vehicle and the problem continues. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Gas fumes from engine compartment – after the car has been driven 20-30 mins enough to heat up the engine and then parked (turned off) for 10-15 minutes a strong smell of gasoline is detected, you can smell it either by sniffing in the front grill or if you start it and use the outdoor air circulation in the cabin it will come through the vents. There are enough fumes to fill a 1 car garage in 30 mins with a thick odor of gasoline. The fumes are nauseating and cause headaches. My salesman at Hawk Nissan suggested changing gas to a top tier brand so I starting using Mobile but no help with the fume issue. After speaking with a service manager at Woodfield Nissan, he said that he’s had a few cars come in recently with the same problem. Nothing is showing up mechanically so they chalked it up to a “break-in period” and/or possibly a coating used in manufacturing. Brought it back to Woodfield Nissan a couple weeks later stating the oil dipstick has a strong smell of gasoline same smell I get in the cabin and around the car. He found nothing unusual with the oil smell. I took it into Hawk Nissan Oct 2022 with 800 miles now with 2943 miles still having the issue. Not sure if this is affecting my MPG but I'm only getting 18-20 MPG mix of city & highway driving. Recently I'm seeing a lot of the same complaints with the 2023 models.

Gas smell after driving. Dealer replaced EVAP canister valve but still fills my garage with smell
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 18, 2023
My Vehicle has 3,700 miles on it and i have smelled a very intense fuel smell in the cabin of the vehicle at least 6 times mostly when the interior fan is not set to recirculate the air, i took the vehicle to my local nissan service center and they could find no issues but said this is a complaint that others have also made. I am concerned that there could be a fire from the fumes that are being released.

The gas pedal in my new 2022 Nissan Rogue has stuck open full throttle twice. Both times I managed to avoid a major car accident, but I was in the middle of a highway with traffic... I was in the left hand turn lane and pushed the gas pedal to the floor - the vehicle immediately seemed to be full-throttle in LOW gear - this is a problem with this vehicle. It slips into low gear about 20 percent of the time when you put it in D. the engined raced but the vehicle moved slowly. I took my foot completely off the gas pedal but the gas pedal stayed fully engaged. I pushed on the brake and managed to stop the vehicle with the engine still racing and the vehicle still trying to lunge forward. I tried to put the vehicle into neutral but it bypassed neutral - even the dotted indicator transmission light bypassed neutral and jumped into reverse. the car lurched but i still had the brakes fully engaged... this continued with me again tryying for neutral - then I gave up and concentrated on taking one of my 2 feet off the brake and reaching under the throttle. I had to slip my seat belt off and slide down to accomplish this. I did manage to do it and the gas pedal did disengage. I estimate the pedal was stuck and the engine revved full throttle for four minutes or a little longer. My son was outside the vehicle (waiting for me to pick him up) and he witnessed this from outside the vehicle. This is obviously very dangerous and could be deadly. In my case it could have caused a major multi-vehicle accident.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 16, 2023
There is a strong unburied fuel smell on occasion. The dealer says that they are waiting for Nissan engineering to provide a repair and that it would be ok to drive.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 15, 2023
For roughly the last three months, several times I have smelled fuel or gas in the interior cabin. Mostly at startup for first time during morning. But also when starting car after use earlier in the day. The smell dissipates after 10 minutes or so. Especially if I roll down windows to let in fresh air. Please let me know how address because dealer will not see issue as it does not occur with a defined pattern that I recognize. I did notice that when the gas tank was near empty the smell was very strong - and I was driving car for several minutes before the odor started. This issue is not healthy for breathing and I’m worried about it getting worse and becoming a safety issue.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 14, 2023
There is a strong smell of gasoline a few minutes after parking the vehicle in my enclosed garage. The smell is strongest on the drivers side, near base of the windshield and along the left side of the hood. This problem occurs every time I drive the vehicle more than 20 mins and then park it in an enclosed garage. 10 mins after parking it, the garage smells like spilled gasoline. I took the vehicle at 2,200 miles to a dealer and they stated that they were unable to duplicate the problem. They asked me to return the vehicle at 5,000 miles if I still had the problem.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 13, 2023
Vehicle has raw fuel smell, both outside and inside. Smell intensity varies, sometimes it is faint, sometimes it smells up the whole garage for days. When restarting the vehicle after having driven it, fuel smell comes into the cabin from the air vents. Took to dealer multiple times. The first time, the Service Advisor noted the strong fuel smell. Subsequant visits to the dealer had faint fuel smell that was hard to detect over the typical odors in a repair shop. Opened a case with Nissan, and they sent a tech, but no resolution. Requested a re-purchase, and Nissan denied it. Nissan states this 1.5L engine is under Engineering Review, but they do not know if or when they will figure out a repair. This vehicle is an extreme health hazard with the exposure to hydrocarbon vapors, and is not safe to drive as an engine fire could result from the gas vapors. Issue started a month ago at 1100 miles.

For several weeks I have noticed strong smell of gasoline when my car is parked in my garage. Today, I called my Nissan dealer because I am very concerned. The service advisor informed me that they have received many similar complaints and Nissan is supposedly trying to identify and remedy the problem. He said my car is safe, but I am terribly concerned.
