general problems of the 2019 Nissan Rogue

In October of 2025 my car stalled in slow traffic after a 100 mile car ride. After 20 minutes, it started again. The engine code was p0507. Two weeks later, without warning as I was accelerating on the highway the car stopped in the middle lane. This was incredibly dangerous. I had to wait 30 minutes in busy am traffic for a police escort. And the event was costly as I had to pay $200 to be towed off the highway. Once the car arrived at the service center, it started again. The mechanic convinced me to replace the purge solenoid as a starting place to address the problem. The car ran normally from November to March. In March 2026, after almost two hours in stop and go traffic, the car engine stalled out again. We pushed the car to the side of the road and waited 20 minutes. The engine started again. The coolant was below minimum and the computer code was p1217, engine overheat. My mechanic found a faulty cooling fan and replaced it on 3/17/26. This experience of the engine suddenly stopping while the car is moving with no warning or lights on the dash until the stallout has been extremely dangerous and costly. I believe Nissan knows of the cooling fan issue given online forums. Not recalling this faulty part has put me and my children in danger. In summer 2024, the air conditioner of this car stopped working in traffic. It would blow hot air. The dealership could not replicate the issue and instead charged the air conditioner costing me a lot of money. The air conditioning problem has been intermittent since. I believe this is connected to the defective cooling fan and the Nissan dealership did not do their due diligence to investigate the issue.

Radiator cooling fan failed at 43,819 miles. Cost to repair was $554. 95. Web search revealed that many others are experiencing this failure at ~40k miles on the Nissan Rogue sport models. It seems like it should be a recall/reimbursement issue.

To whom it may concern, I would like to report that my 2019 Nissan Rogue has experienced premature engine cooling fan malfunction at 78,000 miles resulting in overheating and engine failure. This is a costly repair, and the dealership is quoting over $1,200 to repair. After further investigation and discussion with dealership, this appears to be a common defect and clearly a manufacture. When researching this matter, it appears that this is a commonly reported defect on the NHTSA website for this specific make and model. I believe that this warrants further investigation by the NHTSA to protect consumers and in the interest of public safety from Nissans faulty product.

To whom it may concern, I am submitting this complaint regarding my 2019 Nissan Rogue sport, which has developed a significant mechanical issue with the engine cooling fan. My vehicle has fewer than 61,000 miles, yet the cooling fan is failing and requires replacement—an extremely costly repair for a vehicle with relatively low mileage. Through my own research and conversations with other Nissan Rogue and Rogue sport owners, I have discovered that this is not an isolated incident. Many owners report premature cooling fan failure, often well before 70,000 miles. This suggests a potential manufacturing defect or design flaw that could affect a wide range of vehicles, not just mine. The failure of a cooling fan poses a serious safety risk. If the fan stops working properly, the engine can overheat, leading to sudden breakdowns, potential loss of power while driving, and increased risk of accidents. Additionally, overheating could cause further engine damage, compounding repair costs for consumers. Given the frequency of reported failures and the high cost of repair—often totaling thousands of dollars—I believe this issue warrants an immediate investigation and a potential recall. The root cause should be identified and corrected at the manufacturer level so that consumers are not forced to bear the financial burden for what appears to be a common defect. I respectfully request that the NHTSA investigate this matter and determine whether a recall should be issued for 2019 Nissan Rogue sport models and potentially other affected model years.

Engine coolant fan malfunction in summer of 2024 with replacement of engine coolant fan. Again with same issue in 2025 with issue of engine coolant fan malfunction and over heating engine/ exhausting coolant fluid. This has been an issue over the last two years for me and is a major safety concern. I was on a major congested highway in summer of 2024 when the engine coolant fan malfunctioned and fumes came from the hood of my car. It could’ve been a disastrous accident. Again I am experiencing issues with the same engine coolant fan.

My 2019 Nissan Rogue sport was having air conditioning trouble for about a week. The air conditioning would only work when the car was moving. My father is a diesel mechanic, although he lives 3 hours away so he had planned to look at my car the up coming weekend. I had gone to grocery store to pick up groceries and on my way home my check engine light came on, my temperature gauge shot up, and my car started hopping forward from engine misfires. I was driving 75 on the interstate when this occurs. If I touched the gas pedal, the car would jump forward and fail to accelerate. I had a semi truck behind me, my two nieces in the back seat, 3 and 5. The semi truck almost hit us because my car went from acting perfectly normal, to not being able to accelerate without engine misfires on the interstate. I only have 92,000 miles on my car. Thankfully I was able to pull off without me and my nieces getting hurt, although I ended up stuck on the interstate w/ two small children in 95 degree hear waiting for my husband to come rescue us. Turns out my radiator fan went out which caused my car to over heat and the engine to misfire. When we tried to restart my car, it wouldn’t turn back on until it cooled down. I am not looking to be reimbursed, I just want to make this issue doesn’t happen to someone else. I have read many many stories of 2017-2019 Nissan Rogues that have had the same issue. Thank you.

Radiator fan has premature failure and caused my car to overheat and coolant cap to pop off and coolant started leaking.

Engine fan is not working. In doing research, I found this to be a common problems amongst this make and model. These fans are very expensive and if it not taken care of the car overheats causing serious engine problems. This should be a recall ASAP. I am sure that this has been reported enough times now.

Vehicle made high pitch whine noise from park to drive and reverse to drive and nuetral to drive can be heard on left driver side and slow upon acceleration. It feels boggy. When the sound initially started I took the vehicle to el cajon Nissan where I was told there was no sound and they were unable to duplicate and that there was no code. When taken to kearney messa Nissan in April of 2024 they diagnosed as cvt issue and replaced the transmission. I provided them with multiple videos of the vehicle making the sound. After the replacement the noise ceased and the acceleration was much quicker and smoother. As of now, the vehicle has begun making the sound again and is boggy. I have provided Nissan with videos and have taken the car on a test drive and the technician did hear the sound but admitted it was faint according to him. I received a text from the technician today 11/26/24 stating the car was great and they drove it multiple times and heard no noise and experienced no power loss. But my car continues to have trouble accelerating and this continues to endanger me and others on the road. I am happy to provide the videos of the sound upon request.

The part that failed was the cooling fan. According to a litany of google searches, and from a few dealerships, Nissan has known for years about faulty cooling fans and has done nothing about it. My cooling fan went out last night and sprayed coolant everywhere. Not only did the coolant become gaseous as it burned against the hot engine, this poses a huge safety issue as it can cause a vehicle to stall on the highway and become a safety hazard in the event that other vehicles ram into the stalled vehicle, and vice versa. This problem has been confirmed as an issue by the dealership that I go to and yet Nissan has refused to do anything about it. Prior to the failure, there were no warning lamps or signs, until it actually happened and then the check engine light came on. By then it was too late. This issue can cause problems if someone is driving on the highway and are none the wiser. After doing some research, there were class action lawsuits against a few 2013-2017 models of Nissan vehicles, but not for anything beyond that. Confirmed by the dealer, these issues are well known and could be fixed with a recall. Thankfully, my car was parked at the time of the incident, right before I started on a 45 minute drive back home from where I was at. I live in the chicagoland area, where traffic tends to be high and had it happened on the highway, it could’ve caused an even bigger issue to those around me.

While idling outside of my house after driving home, I started to see some smoke from the hood of the car. I looked at the temperature gauge and saw that it had risen to the hot side. I turned off the car and went to check outside; I saw some liquid dripping slowly, which was blue color. I made an appointment with Nissan. I came to learn that the engine coolant fan had malfunctioned, causing the vehicle to overheat while idling. I was unable to pay for the part and labor at the time, as it was costly. It is available for inspection upon request. My safety was put at risk because of the overheating engine; while it occurred initially during idling, it also has occurred while I was driving. This issue could cause loss of power, making it difficult to maintain speed and potentially hazardous in traffic. The problem was confirmed at the dealership, though I was initially told there was no issue. When I insisted that there had to be an issue, they re-assessed the vehicle and expressed that there was a code signifying that the engine coolant fan had malfunctioned previously. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem were present prior to failure. Only after repeatedly insisting that there was a problem, did the inspector at the dealership double check for codes. This issue seems to be evasive, as it does not present an issue consistently.

The radiator cooling fan and cooling fan assembly failed. I do not have the failed fan available any longer. The cooling fan failed during a heat wave, thankfully I was at a gas station when it failed. Had I not been at a gas station, I would have been stranded in northern maine with my [xxx] infant, my elderly mother, and my service dog in excessive heat for hours while waiting for a tow truck. My infant could easily overheat and die in such temperatures. This is a frequent recurring issue in all Nissan Rogue sports from years 2017 through at least 2022. Forums for Nissan Rogues are filled with complaints of the radiator cooling fan failing (some at 27k miles and often around 67k miles), many complaints occuring in the laat month. Nissan is aware of these issues, many people having the dealership repair the vehicle and others (myself included) complaining to Nissan corporate itself. The problem has been confirmed by both dealerships and independent service centers. My component was inspected by the service center. I am unsure who else may have inspected others failed fans. There were no warning lights or messages prior to failure. Two days prior to the failure (roughly 48hrs), I had an issue were my ac suddenly stopped working unless the vehicle was in motion, thinking I needed the ac recharged, I made plans to have that done at the next oil change. I now know that this was likely my radiator fan starting to fail. I had no other symptoms of the problem prior to the fan failing completely and nearly overheating my engine. You can see video of a fan starting to fail here: [xxx] further complaints: [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I purchased a 2019 Nissan Rogue sport a year ago from carmax. It is just barely out of the powertrain warranty. The engine failed. I have taken great care of this car and gotten it oil changes, new brakes, rotated the tires. I am absolutely incensed that I need a new engine. This is unacceptable . 7/19/24 -Nissan Rogue started experiencing issue with the air conditioner. I would drive it and it would work while driving but would stop cooling when parked at a stop light. It was experiencing these ac issues for a few days. Temperatures in sacramento were over 100 degrees this week. 7/21/24 -I called my mechanic 9:00 am and asked if I could come in the next day for an a/c service. My assumption was that it would need to have the ac recharged. 7/21/24 approx 6:00 pm. I was driving with my two nephews [xxx] and [xxx] old). The car started to decelerate. However, after I took my foot off of the gas it would speed back up. It was very scary. I was trying to navigate my way out of traffic as I was in the middle lane and cars were on the right side of me. The eractic way that it accelerated/decelerated was dangerous and could have resulted in an accident. I was very scared and didn’t know what to do. I was able to get safely off the street and parked the car. The next morning I had the car towed to my mechanic. There were no warning lights to indicate that the car was over heating. My mechanic said that the engine had gotten very hot. There was absolutely no temperature gauges to indicate that it had experienced any issues with temperature. I assume that this may have been happening when the ac was having issues. I think my mechanic said something about a fan not working, this caused the engine to overheat which has caused a new engine to need to be replaced which is over $7000.

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Rogue sport. The contact stated while driving approximately 15 mph a vibration and clanking noise was present coming from the engine compartment and the engine temperature gauge suddenly increased. After stopping the vehicle and examining underneath the hood, the contact discovered steam coming from the radiator and the cooling fan had malfunctioned. The vehicle was later towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the cooling fan assembly was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 35,000.

On December 18, 2023, on the masspike, inbound, at the morning rush hour, the traffic was in a hard stop for more than 1 hour (moving very slow bumper to bumper), after the brighton exit, whatever the reason of the traffic jam cleared and all the car speeded up. . . My Nissan Rogue sport accelerated a bit but them came to a very low speed (~ 10 mph). I checked whether I was in the right gear (it was: d), checked whether there was any dashboard error sign (there was not!); the car was very slow at a moment when all the cars near me where rushing. I truly though I could get rammed in the rear by cars trying to get to their destination. All cars were honking because I was at a very low speed (and I put on the emergency lights). I took the car for service at the marlborough Nissan (740 boston post rd e. Marlborough, massachusetts 01752) today (December 26 2023), but they claimed there was nothing wrong with the car. I can tell you that if Nissan does nothing to solve this problem, other cars of their brand will have a big problem. I don't know what the problem is, but there are several post in internet claiming this is a big issue: https://forums. Nicoclub. Com/problem-with-accelerating-t534026. Html https://forums. Nicoclub.

On October 14 2022 I was driving my vehicle at about 35mph and came suddenly upon a stop sign. I hit the brakes and skidded through the intersection and collided with a pick up truck going about 15 mph. My Rogue immediately caught fire from under the hood and the doors wouldn't open. The person I collided with was the only person amongst a dozen people who was brave enough and cared enough about my life to ram his body repeatedly into the rear passenger window and yanked me out of the car. Within 10 seconds of him doing that the vehicle exploded. I almost lost my life from what would be considered a minor collision due to the unexplained fire and explosion.

The radiator fan is bouncing off the radiator. Looks to be the baring inside the fan blade is worn down & making it bounce. I called multiple places such as o'reilly auto parts, auto zone, & advanced auto was told they don't even have an item part for the fan. I called three dealerships the manager at these dealerships laughed & told me they are on back order indefinitely. This is a huge issue with this model car. I believe this is a hazard that could cause a huge accident if not brought to light.

The cooling fan on the car failed, at that point my engine then began to over heat. I was at risk of over heating my engine and the only indicator was my gauge as my car began to push heated air in to my cabin in the middle of summer despite the ac being on. There have been several other Rogue with the same issue, come into the dealership it’s being repaired at. And I’ve been with out a car for 7 weeks.

I took the vehicle to midas because the smell of eggs was coming from the vehicle, it would jerk upon acceleration, and the oil was empty a week after getting an oil change. Upon researching the vehicle midas said the vehicle was unsafe to drive and I had to call a dealer because the power train on the car was going. I had the vehicle towed to a Nissan dealer who had my car from Monday to Thursday and claimed they could not find a issue with the car. I was told by Nissan to pick up the vehicle and try to drive it. If anything came up to come back. After being told it was unsafe to drive I called Nissan corporate to escalate and voice my concerns. They suggested sending the car to another Nissan dealer. So again we had it towed. Today this current Nissan dealer is also suggesting maybe the previous shop cleared the computer in the car and to come pick up the car as well and drive it. With no regards to safety or standing by their warranty.

As I was bumper to bumper in traffic this morning going roughly 30-40 mph, my car stalled, rumbled, and all of my engine lights came on including engine malfunction. I was unable to accelerate at all, but luckily I was still able to pull over on side road. I restarted my car and now a couple lights remain, including engine malfunction. This could’ve been a serious accident if I were going faster.

Our vehicles engine quit working in the center lane of a 3 lane city street after giving out a jerky, vibratory movement briefly. After few attempts of trying to restart, turned on the hazard light and got down from the vehicle to call the towing company. During which time, at least 3 cars recognized the vehicle is stationary and took a diversion while a Toyota tundra did not see and struck the vehicle, which flew few yards away in the street. Thankfully no one was hurt. We are at a loss as to what happened to this brand new 3 month old vehicles engine to stop abruptly. Since the temperature was high in 110s, me and my husband got off the car, if not we would have been inside the car and would not be alive at this time. This was a scary event that needs explanation.

I bought a Nissan rouge 2019 and I had rpm too high (2500) in slow motion. Also when I was in a highway the SUV stop and turn a light that said warning mal function. The symbol that appeared was two cars crashing . (sistema DE frenado autom�tico). Others cars almost hit me from behind. This situation occurred six times. I had to call a tow to carry my SUV to the dealer. My rouge Nissan 2019 only has 476 milles. My Nissan rouge 2019 is in the dealer from August 12 to the present. The dealer pepe abad Nissan cayey puerto rico did not have a diagnosis about what caused this situation in my SUV. I requested a new SUV because they sold me a damaged SUV. I am afraid about that. I am desperated because of the risk of have an accident and cause damaged to other persons. Also, iam paying for something damaged that the dealer sold me as new and that is not fear.
