My 2022 Nissan rouge lost power and engine light came on said I engine needs servicing I drove it to dealership they want to charge me 7300 to fix both cats and sensors. I asked about the recall on the kg bearing. The said the updated the program but my vehicle is now totally clogged and wont drive. There is a refusal to complete the NHTSA recall no. : 25v437. As stated in the recall: description of remedy program: dealers will inspect the engine oil pan for the presence of specific metal debris. This inspection will be performed free of charge for parts and labor and should take less than one (1. 0) hour to complete. • for customers with the 3-cylinder 1. 5l vc-turbo engine, if no debris is detected during the inspection, dealers will replace the oil pan gasket, engine oil, and reprogram the vehicle’s engine control module (ecm). This repair will be performed free of charge for parts and labor and should take less than half of one (0. 5) hour to complete. The dealer refuses to drop the oil pan and wants payment for it and the oil! I have spent about $1000 so far on a rental because dealer claims they don't do that either. I need help getting this taking care of. Thank you.
Incident summary & safety hazard: Nissan north America and its dealership failed to perform a timely safety recall repair (NHTSA 25v-437 / 26v-080), resulting in complete engine failure and sudden loss of power in active traffic. Essential replacement parts are on national backorder, leaving the vehicle inoperable. Timeline: June–late 2025 (~105k miles): attempted to get the recall repair at tom peacock Nissan 3–4 times. Turned away each time due to lack of parts/remedy. Jan 2026 (~121k miles): engine lost power and made severe internal noise while driving. Dealer reflashed ecm and used a borescope, claiming a metal piece on a piston was "unrelated to the recall. " they refused to inspect the bearings per protocol and demanded $8,000 for repair without a diagnostic breakdown. Sept 2026: total engine failure while driving; vehicle stalled completely. An independent shop confirmed failure due to progressive bearing wear linked to the recalled defect. Nissan refused coverage because mileage passed 120,000 miles, despite repeated pre-failure recall attempts starting at 105,000 miles. Current status: purchased a replacement engine out-of-pocket (Nissan order #180929 and #181725). Parts are on national backorder with no estimated delivery date. Requested action: I request NHTSA investigate Nissan's failure to supply timely recall remedies, turning away owners prior to failure, and denying coverage for damages caused by known defective engine bearings.
When starting the car a warning ?? light comes on. Engine malfunction power reduction service now so the car will not gain speed. I can turn the car off and restart an the light goes off. But will come back on in a couple of days.
My 2022 Nissan Rogue 1. 5l vc-turbo is experiencing repeated limp-mode/reduced-power events, severe hesitation, poor acceleration, rough/shaking idle, and recurring dtc u0652 after Nissan marked recall 25v-437 complete. The vehicle is available for inspection. Reduced-power symptoms were documented as early as Dec. 2024 and significantly worsened by oct. 3, 2025 at approximately 100,400 miles, including loss of power at highway speed. I previously reported this condition to NHTSA under complaint #11696068. The first Nissan dealer (willis) used a borescope, claimed “sludge,” recommended engine replacement, refused to provide supporting photos/evidence, and did not remove the oil pan. Willis later provided me an oil sample, which I submitted for independent analysis. That analysis showed multiple bearing-associated wear metals without an abnormal viscosity condition explaining the findings, and confirmed the oil pan was had not been checked. A second Nissan dealer was contacted to performed Nissan’s recall screening/software procedure. No engine light could be on upon arrival. Because the intermittent condition did not occur during the brief test, Nissan marked the recall complete. The warning light is now illuminated again and the vehicle is again entering limp mode/reduced power. I contacted Nissan for assistance and was told they would not provide towing or further recall assistance because the recall is listed as complete. I am currently stranded with the same safety condition after Nissan declared the vehicle remedied. My complaint is failed recall remedy/recall effectiveness. Nissan’s screening process classified this vehicle as remedied, but the safety condition continues and appears progressive. Nissan is now using its own “recall complete” status to refuse further action despite recurring loss of power and independent evidence of internal engine wear.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving 65-75 mph and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle experienced reduced power and failed to exceed 30-35 mph. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and notified the dealer of the failure by phone. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000 (engine and engine cooling). The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and dtc: p0012 and p0196 were retrieved, and the contact was advised that the engine was overheating. The contact was informed that the failures associated with the diagnostic trouble codes needed to be fixed prior to the recall repair. The contact declined to pay for the repair. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the cooling system was replaced. The vehicle was then taken to cannon Nissan eastern shore (29788 frederick blvd, daphne, al 36526), where the contact was informed that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed prior to the recall repair. The contact declined to pay for the diagnostic test because the vehicle had previously been diagnosed with the same trouble codes by the first dealer and o'reilly auto parts. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by phone and informed the contact that the recall did not apply to the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 102,801.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000 (engine and engine cooling); however, the failure occurred after the recall repair. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving 80 mph, the engine made a loud knocking sound with the messages, "engine stalling - pull over and park safely" and "shift to park(p)" were displayed. The contact's daughter pulled over and turned off the vehicle. The vehicle failed to restart after several attempts, with a burning odor inside the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the residence and then to an independent mechanic, who retrieved dtc: p0014, p0017, p0506, p0524; and determined that there were metal shavings inside the oil filter and the engine. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, who determined that there was severe internal mechanical knocking from low crankshaft, heavy metallic contamination, internal bearing failure, and catastrophic engine wear. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 159,143.
Engine failure, known issue per Nissan service employees, second and third combustion cylinders fill with anti-freeze coolant with no errors or warning lights in vehicle. This was noticed by the temperature gauge climbing during acceleration and falling while at speed. I am told it is a manufacturing defect by the service department but due to the 76,000 miles on the 2022 vehicle it is not covered by Nissan, an $8000 bill for the long block replacement. This needs your attention as in my local dealership there have been 5 instances of this in the last month. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
I purchased the vehicle about 4 months ago and I've only driven it maybe 1 month out of 4 due to being in the shop for multiple egr and throttle issues. I am currently sitting with it broke down once again for the same issues for the 3rd time. The engine loses power out of no where while driven and gives a warning that says engine malfunction power reduced and all safety features are then shut down. This leaves my car only traveling no more than 10mph. I was on the interstate!!.
My 2022 Nissan Rogue has entered reduced-power/limp mode approximately nine times. The specific component causing the malfunction has not been identified. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. When the malfunction occurs, the vehicle displays a malfunction/reduced-power warning and substantially reduces available engine power. Several occurrences happened during a long-distance trip involving highway, mountain, and desert driving. The unexpected reduction in power creates a safety concern during highway travel, merging, passing, climbing grades, or travel in remote areas. The problem is intermittent and has not been successfully reproduced by an authorized Nissan dealership. I presented the vehicle to a Nissan dealer and reported the repeated events while the vehicle had approximately 56,500 miles and remained below Nissan's 60,000-mile powertrain warranty mileage limit. The dealership advised that it could not diagnose the problem unless the malfunction occurs again with an active diagnostic code. I have also reported the problem to Nissan consumer affairs. The underlying cause remains unidentified and the vehicle has not been repaired for this condition. Warning messages appear when the malfunction occurs. During the long-distance trip, diagnostic codes were cleared to restore vehicle operation. The vehicle would then operate normally for a period before unexpectedly entering reduced-power mode again. My primary concern is that after approximately nine occurrences, I still have no diagnosis or assurance that the condition will not recur during highway operation or another situation where maintaining vehicle power is necessary for safe operation.
Nissan rouge was inspected for recall 26v080, engine bearing failures. a few months later the engine bearings failed. my wife was driving the vehicle alone, 5 days after having a pacemaker implanted when the bearings/engine failed. The vehicle would move slowly with fits and starts and randomly shutdown and then have to be restarted. this was clearly a danger to my wife and other vehicles on the road with her. Luckily a sheriff came along, saw the danger of the situation and escorted my wife home. Clearly, Nissans actions to inspect and reprogram the ecm do not work in preventing this failure. Nissan must be forced to go back to dropping the oil pan and inspecting it for debris. This cost me $200 in towing fees and stranded us in [xxx] for 2 weeks with a cost that I have yet to calculate. Had the oil pan been inspected we could have avoided the dangerous situation my wife found herself in and it would have been repaired in [xxx] where we live.

On July 15 at approximately 4:30 pm my daughter's 2022 Nissan Rogue stalled while she was making a turn in a busy intersection. She was able to restart it and make it to a safe place to call a tow truck. There were no warning lights on my dashboard. The vehicle had just been serviced less than two weeks prior. The vehicle was towed to the local Nissan dealership. The next day the inspected it and determined it had overheated and coolant was entering the exhaust manifold. The technician noted that the coolant reservoir was very low.
I was driving to work. I noticed what I thought was some gravel dust behind me. I got to a stop light and my car started shaking. No engine or warning lights came on. I shut my car off and started it up again. It was still shaking. When I pulled away from the stop light, I notice there was white smoke coming out my tailpipe. I immediately pulled over and called the dealership I thought it from and a tow truck. I haven’t been given anything official from the dealership, but the service department emailed me this yesterday: “car was smoking from exhaust, pressure tested coolant system did not hold pressure, inspected cylinders with boar scope found coolant in cylinder 1, coolant saturation ruined the turbo and converter” I have now asked the dealership to do a “metal debris test”.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at 70 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The vehicle independently shifted into safe drive mode. The awd drive warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to exceed 25 mph while driving. The vehicle was driven to a nearby rest area. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with oil and engine temperature failure and a failed water valve. The contact was informed that the oil and engine temperature sensor and water valve needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact referenced TSB: ntb25-000, which had a similar failure description. The contact was informed that the failure was not covered under the technical service bulletin. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The contact referenced TSB: ntb25-000, which had a similar failure description. The contact was informed that the failure was not covered under the technical service bulletin. In addition, the contact requested a goodwill warranty repair, the request was denied. The failure mileage was approximately 61,350.
Formal demand for repurchase or replacement under utah law and the magnuson-moss warranty act vehicle: 2023 Nissan Rogue VIN: [xxx] current mileage: 104732 to whom it may concern: I am the owner of a 2023 Nissan Rogue and am writing to formally demand that Nissan north America, inc. Resolve a serious and ongoing defect affecting my vehicle by repurchasing the vehicle, replacing it with a comparable new vehicle, or otherwise providing an appropriate remedy. The vehicle has experienced a substantial defect involving the continuously variable transmission (cvt). Nissan replaced the original cvt under the manufacturer's warranty at no cost to me. However, immediately following that replacement, the replacement transmission began exhibiting serious defects, including seizing, repeated stalling while driving, and the appearance of electrical fault codes. The vehicle continues to stall unexpectedly, creating an unreasonable safety risk for me, my passengers, and other motorists. A vehicle that loses propulsion while in traffic cannot reasonably be considered safe, reliable, or fit for its intended purpose. Despite Nissan's opportunity to repair this defect, the problems remain unresolved. Replacing one defective transmission with another defective transmission has not corrected the underlying issue. These defects substantially impair the vehicle's use, value, and safety. I have complied with Nissan's warranty requirements by presenting the vehicle to authorized Nissan dealerships for diagnosis and repair. Nissan has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to repair the vehicle but has been unable to provide a permanent remedy. Accordingly, I believe I may be entitled to relief under applicable utah law governing warranty obligations and defective new motor vehicles, as well as under the magnuson-moss warranty act, 15 u. S. C. §§ 2301–2312, which provides consumers with remedies when a manufacturer fails to honor its written warranty obligations. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (f.
I was driving when I was pulled over by a police officer for speeding I was going 5 over the speed limit (speed limit was 65). As the officer approached my vehicle, he noticed flames coming from the engine compartment before I was aware there was any issue. He immediately instructed me to exit the vehicle for my safety. After I got out, the officer attempted to put out the fire with a fire extinguisher, but the flames continued to spread despite his efforts. The fire quickly intensified, causing extensive damage to the vehicle. Emergency responders were called to the scene to extinguish the fire, but by the time the fire was under control, the vehicle had sustained severe fire damage and was no longer operable.
The engine failed, and the overheating due to it caused the head gasket to warp. I have multiple recordings from Nissan advising this is a manufacturer defect, but they refuse to fix it unless we pay $5000+. I was driving on the high way and the vehicle shut off. Luckily I was able to safely get off but I was almost struck. I have recorded conversations with the dealership where they confirm they have multiple vehicles in the shop with the same issue. Its sitting at a Nissan dealership after being inspected at this time. There was 0 warning lights. The vehicle just shut off.
I have a 2022 Nissan Rogue sv that had an engine replaced due to a faulty head gasket in March of 2024 and my vehicle on 6/15/2026 had a rough idle of the engine and irregular rpm's which then led to the rpm's dropping to zero while in a stationary drivethru lane. The vehicle then showed a caution warning indicating to shift the car into neutral. After getting the car towed to the dealership for diagnostics it was determined that the vehicle requires a new engine. The likely cause according to the service advisor was a failed head gasket, which was the same reason for the first engine replacement. Despite the fact the engine will be covered under warranty, the possibility of the engine failure occurring on the highway while traveling at a high rate of speed, and potentially stranding me on the highway with no warning is a high cause for concern given the vehicle would have went into limp mode, which limits the vehicle to less than 15 mph.
While driving an alert appeared on the dash stating engine malfunction. Speed was reduced instantly which was dangerous as I was driving at high speeds on the freeway with traffic behind me. The accelerator wouldn’t work and I had to immediately pull over.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000(engine and engine cooling). The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the contact was informed that the dealer reprogrammed the engine control module (ecm) software and test drove the vehicle and found no failures. Despite the dealer's claims that they test drove the vehicle, the contact stated that her mileage had not changed upon picking up the vehicle. The contact then stated that while driving at 55 mph, an audible ding sound emitted from the vehicle as both an "engine malfunction" and "power reduced service now" warning messages appeared on the instrument panel. The vehicle began to slow down upon depression of the accelerator pedal. While at a stop light, the vehicle failed to accelerate above 5 mph as the contact coasted the vehicle into a parking lot. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to another dealer where after the dealer spoke with the manufacturer; they agreed to repair the vehicle under the initial recall. The contact had yet to notify the manufacturer directly about the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000.
I own a 2022 Nissan Rogue with approx 71,139 miles on. While driving on the freeway at 65mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power and became disabled. Prior to the failure, the vehicle did not dispaly an overheating warning, coolant warning, or other indication the engine was overheating or experiencing coolant loss. The vehicle was being driven normally and was on the way to routine maintenance and fuel stop when the failure occurred. An independent repair facility diagnosed coolant intrusion into the combustion chamber and determined the engine had overheated and required replacement. The vehicle's sudden loss of propulsion occurred without warning creating a safety hazard for myself and my daughter as I was forced to coast to a stop in the gore area of the freeway just as you entered the [xxx] from [xxx] due to the inability to maintain speed on the freeway. This was the safest area for us to park but it was terrifying as cars zoomed past us from both sides. I am concerned that the engine failed without adequate warning to the driver and that similar complaints have been noted by several others describing the same issue with the same year, make and model as my car. Multiple reports have said it occurred while on the freeway, making this a greater concern for safety. I took my car to Nissan who stated they see the coolant intrusion, but that it was not covered under recall. I asked what caused the internal leak, to which they replied that would require them to take apart the engine to examine further at my cost. I advised the issue with the car not indicating it was even out of coolant to cause it to overheat was concerning because even if I replace the engine, if the electrical failure isn't addressed I could run into the same issue and this time actually get into an accident that could cause death or serious injury. My car is still at Nissan mission hills dealership and available for inspection upon request. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
There have been a couple recalls for transmission/engine bearing and the Nissan dealership has serviced the recalls. However, today may 8, 2022 while driving on the highway the check engine light appeared and a notification appeared check oil immediately. Then my engine and transmission blew on the highway at 65 miles per hour causing my Nissan to immediately stop. I was able to quickly put my hazard light on an move the Nissan off the highway and shut the vehicle off. After about 10 minutes I started the Nissan Rogue again and checked for any new messages/notifications. The engine check light was still on and the check oil/change oil immediately appeared. The vehicle would not drive over 15 miles per hour. There was no power. I contacted the Nissan dealership and explained what happened the dealership has my Nissan Rogue and wants me to come in and trade my car to purchase a new vehicle.
During acceleration engine makes a strange noise as if marbles were rolling around in the engine, or a knocking noise more noticeable when the engine is cold. Dealership says this is a normal sound on Nissan Rogues with the 1. 5 cyl turbo charged engine. When I use 89 octane fuel the knocking sound seems less pronounced but, the manual on my 2022 Nissan Rogue says to use 87 octane. Is there anything we can do if the dealership refuses to acknowledge there is a problem which needs to be addressed?.
The contact owns2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer for a recall repair and approximately 2 weeks after the repair was done while driving on the roadway, vehicle went into limp mode and vehicle was driven to safety on the side of the road. The vehicle was able to restart after 5 to 10 minutes. An engine failure warning displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the issue could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,423.
I am reporting a safety defect involving my 2022 Nissan Rogue related to NHTSA recall 25v437 (engine bearing failure). Prior to complete engine failure, I experienced multiple instances of sudden loss of power while driving at highway speeds, creating a serious safety hazard. In one instance, this nearly resulted in a multi-vehicle accident in heavy traffic. The vehicle also exhibited additional symptoms consistent with the recall, including engine shaking, knocking noises, rough riding and hard shifting, burning smell, and warning lights. Nissan performed the recall service, which consisted of reprogramming the engine control module (ecm). However, this software update did not repair or replace the defective engine components. The vehicle’s condition worsened after the recall service. The engine ultimately failed completely at approximately 122,000 miles, shortly after the recall repair was completed. This indicates that the recall remedy is ineffective and does not adequately address the safety risk, as a software update cannot prevent or correct pre-existing mechanical failure of engine bearings. I am concerned that other vehicles with this defect remain at risk of sudden power loss and potential crashes despite having the recall performed.
While driving home, multiple alerts showed up on the dashboard about my engine and to check the manual. Smoke began to come up from the engine and smelled really bad. I heard a rattling as well. The recall work was done on this not too long ago, coming up on 1 year ago, and still have engine difficulties after they replaced the entire engine and did the recall repair.
Hi! this is my 2nd input here about my 2022 Nissan Rogue. Recaping that whike driving home, smoke began to emerge from under the hood and multiple warning signs popped up (please see previous input for more information). Cureentky, my vehicle was diagnosed with a converter issue. The recent recall was related to the engine. The converter and my spark plugs (2 spark plugs replaced already) were all damaged by the engine. This makes sense why there are numerous issues. While the extended warranty covers the engine and not the converter, under the law of consequential damage, anything damaged by this engine is covered due to the cause from the engine. I currently have a rental and am leaving my Rogue at the dealership due to it being unsafe to drive and that the dealership has not provided a remedy for this defect, which is covered by law under this recall on the Rogue due to consequential damage. My Rogue will continue to have issues until all related/noncoverd parts are fixed under this. This vehicle is now a lemon due to consistent issue with the engine it damaging other parts. I am hoping for a good will pay and buyback.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the transmission unexpectedly downshifted with the messages "engine malfunction power reduced service now" and "awd error malfunction" displayed on the instrument panel. Following the failures, the vehicle failed to accelerate above 15 mph after being restarted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer on several occasions. The contact stated that after a software update, a coolant bypass repair, and an engine flush, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The vehicle remained with the dealer unrepaired. The failure mileage was approximately 53,370.
The continuous variable transmission (cvt) system began malfunctioning immediately after service for recall r25a8 in March. Initial symptoms included severe hesitation, shuddering, and erratic shifting, as well as an occasional cvt light that would turn on and off. I expressed these concerns to the dealership, but the issue was not acted on because they initially could not reproduce or confirm the symptoms during prior visits. Recently, the dealership replicated the issue and confirmed a complete transmission failure requiring a full replacement. The vehicle and failed component are available for inspection upon request. The vehicle is only 4 years old, and research shows this cvt failure is a widespread issue among Nissan vehicles. The sudden loss of acceleration and erratic shifting created a safety hazard during highway merging and navigating busy intersections, placing occupants and surrounding traffic at risk of a rear-end collision.
My 2022 Nissan Rogue experienced a sudden engine failure related to an active recall. The vehicle became undrivable and was taken to the dealership. The vehicle has now been out of service for over two weeks with no estimated repair completion date. This failure creates a serious safety risk, as engine failure can occur while driving and could lead to loss of power, stalling, or inability to safely operate the vehicle. The dealership has confirmed the issue but has not provided a timeline for repair. Nissan has only offered rental reimbursement, requiring out-of-pocket payment, and has not provided a loaner or direct rental despite the recall-related failure. I am currently without reliable transportation due to this failure and cannot afford to pay upfront for a rental. This has created a financial hardship. This issue should be investigated, as it involves engine failure tied to a recall and lack of adequate support while the vehicle is out of service.
My car is just 3 years old has reduced power warning and continuous engine light on. Despite several reminders, calls to Nissan marietta dealership as well as Nissan consumer affairs, issue has not been resolved. My car is not in a driving condition and they have wrongly changed the battery and charged me instead of taking care of recall or repairing the engine light issue. They keep changing their diagnostic results. I request immediate resolution and attention of Nissan in this matter by a qualified technician.
On [xxx] I was traveling with my [xxx] daughter from phoenix, az up to flagstaff, az. The Nissan Rogue associated with the VIN number is my wife's. Vehicle only has 24,000 miles on it and we currently have a Nissan security+plus extended warranty, [xxx]. We were cruising along nicely and all of the sudden many warning signs appeared stating "malfunction, see owner's manual". The vehicle turbo essentially lost all boost rendering the engine nearly powerless. I have read many reports of this being a possible issue with the motor, but there is currently no recall on it. That is a potential catastrophic failure and I'm afraid it will happen again. We were able to get the vehicle to a big o tire in flagstaff, az since the Nissan dealer there couldn't see the vehicle. They hooked it out to a diagnostic, cleared out all the warning codes, and the vehicle starting producing boost and working properly again. We made it safely back down to phoenix. I'm very worried this could happen again and wondering why this major glitch isn't being recalled. Has Nissan considered a full buy back on these vehicles? please advise. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
My 2022 Nissan Rogue experienced sudden engine failure due to coolant loss and a blown head gasket while driving. The engine became inoperable and the dealership denied coverage. This appears to be a premature engine defect and created a safety risk due to sudden loss of power.
My 2022 Nissan Rogue has experienced repeated engine failures beginning at approximately 88,000 miles, including four separate incidents despite repairs performed at authorized dealerships. The vehicle exhibited engine knocking and drivability issues prior to failure. Nissan later issued a recall related to engine issues, and recall service was performed on January 29, 2026. The engine failed catastrophically less than 30 days later and was diagnosed with coolant intrusion into the cylinders requiring full engine replacement. The recall inspection appears to have been limited to a computer scan and did not identify the underlying issue. This raises concerns that the defect may not be properly detectable through the current recall procedure. I am reporting this as a potential safety concern due to repeated engine failure and loss of confidence in vehicle reliability.
I am reporting a serious safety concern involving my 2022 Nissan Rogue equipped with the 1. 5l engine. While driving in normal traffic, my vehicle suddenly displayed an "engine malfunction" warning with no prior indication of an engine problem. Immediately after the warning appeared, the vehicle rapidly lost power and could no longer maintain the speed of surrounding traffic. I had very limited ability to accelerate or safely maneuver, creating a significant risk of being struck from behind or becoming stranded in an active travel lane. There was no advance warning that a catastrophic engine failure was imminent. The vehicle ultimately became inoperable and was towed to an authorized Nissan dealership. The dealership diagnosed the engine with coolant leaking into the cylinders and determined that replacement of the engine assembly, turbocharger, and catalytic converter was required at an estimated cost exceeding $10,000. My vehicle had previously experienced engine-related concerns and was included in recall campaign r25d1. That recall was completed, but less than 30 days later the engine failed catastrophically. Based on this sequence of events, I am concerned that the existing recall may not identify or address all engine conditions that can result in sudden loss of motive power and catastrophic engine failure. I have since learned of numerous publicly reported complaints from other owners describing similar failures involving coolant intrusion, sudden loss of power, and complete engine replacement in 2022 Nissan Rogue vehicles equipped with this engine. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether these engine failures represent a broader safety defect and whether additional corrective action is necessary to protect the driving public.
The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving 55 mph, the vehicle went into limp mode and decelerated to approximately 10 mph. The message "engine malfunction" was displayed. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The vehicle was restarted, but failed to respond while depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine had failed due to the failure of the camshaft and three other unknown parts around the camshaft. The dealer determined that the failure was not related to NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000 (engine and engine cooling) because the engine had not failed due to rod bearing failure. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and offered a 70 percent reduction in the cost of the repair. The failure mileage was approximately 84,000.
