general problems of the 2023 Nissan Rogue - part 1

I owned this car for less than 2 years and it's already costing $700. 00 to have a egr valve failure. This seems to be a big problem with these SUV's and I just don't no how this is not covered under the warranty or a recall as this is clearly a defect. There are so many complaints about this issue. This is my 3rd Nissan and most likely my last!!! not happy at all with this outcome of $700. 00 repair!.

While on the highway, the vehicle felt sudden loss of power and a burning smell. Immediately took the next exit and entered a gas station where large volume of oil leaking under the vehicle. Exited the vehicle and called for a tow truck to bring the vehicle to the nearest auto shop who informed me that the engine was damaged internally similar to what’s described in the recall and informed me to have the vehicle towed to the nearest dealership for the recall repair. The dealership informed me that they are unable to perform the recall due to being unable to scan the diagnostic codes therefore cannot inspect the engine/oil pan as per the recall instructions - informed me that the engine needs to be replaced first and that I should contact Nissan consumer affairs for a good-will engine replacement approval. I contact Nissan consumer affairs and was informed that they will not be replacing the engine and cannot perform the recall until the engine is replaced; instead offered me 50% off the engine replacement cost.

Engine malfunction warning - limp mode activated 6 times within a year of ownership. Car loses power while driving, rpm not responsive, speed drops and stays around 40 miles per hour. Recalls have been “addressed” but no remedy.

My vehicle originally underwent an engine replacement performed by the dealership under a manufacturer recall. The engine was replaced at no cost to me. However, only two days after receiving the vehicle back from the dealership, the transmission failed. The dealership has since stated that they cannot determine whether the transmission was already failing or whether damage may have occurred during the engine replacement process. Specifically, they indicated there is uncertainty surrounding whether work performed during the engine installation may have contributed to a wiring harness melting, which may have affected transmission operation. Despite acknowledging that fault cannot be determined, Nissan corporate has offered to cover only 50% of the transmission replacement cost, leaving me responsible for $3,112. This partial payment offer was communicated through walker jones Nissan. I do not believe it is reasonable for me to bear half of this expense under the circumstances for the following reasons: • the transmission failure occurred only two days after a major recall repair performed by the dealership. • prior to the engine replacement, the vehicle was operating without transmission failure. • the dealership has admitted uncertainty as to whether their repair work contributed to the issue. • I have been without my vehicle for approximately two months while this situation remains unresolved. • during this time, I have continued making loan payments and maintaining insurance coverage despite having no use of the vehicle. Given the timing of the failure immediately following recall service and the dealership’s inability to rule out repair-related causes, I respectfully believe full coverage of the transmission repair is warranted as a matter of fairness and customer responsibility.

Nisan rouge svawd 70k milage. When driving suddenly the vehicle loss power and shakes drastically reducing the speed and is uncapable to fast acceleration. Cvt service now popup on the scree. After taking the vehicle to the dealer. Dealer charge $200+ for read the codes. And ended asking for a 10k to full replace the cvt.

On two separate occasions, my 2023 Nissan Rogue has experienced major loss of power while driving 80 mph. The first time, all of the dash lights were blinking and there was an awful noise coming from the engine. I could not drive over 10 mph. The vehicle had to be towed 200 miles to the nearest Nissan dealer in billings, mt. They cleared the codes, test drove it and said everything was fine. The second time my vehicle had to be towed. 115 miles from the nearest Nissan dealer. Same issues, except this time there were no dash lights. Prior to all of this happening, my car had an open recall for the 1. 5l vc-turbo engine that my car has. Since the first time this occurred and Nissan "fixed" the problem, there has been no open recall. With the second occurance, Nissan had to replace the throttle actuator and gaskets according to the invoice. Luckily, I had purchased my own extended warranty and that warranty covered $1,104. 20 of the $1,204. 20 (I paid $100 CO-pay). I was charged $715 for towing from Nissan roadside assistance. The invoice claims the Nissan found the following diagnostic results: dtc p0507-00 wwhich is directly linked to a fractured internal gear in the electric throttle control actuator, the subject of NHTSA recall 26v081 and dtc p0196 which is directly linked to engine oil temperature performance, the precursor to engine bearing seizures addressed in NHTSA recall 26v080. Nissan is currently excluding many 2023 models from the "official" recall list. My car has 67,350 miles on it, but this failure should be covered by Nissan's 10-year/120,000-mile extended powertrain warranty. The parts replaced (throttle actuator and gaskets) and the diagnostic codes are identical to those in the 2026 expanded recall populations. Denying coverage based on an "open recall" statis is a violation of the spirit of the NHTSA safety mandates for this engine. I am formally requesting/demanding reimbursment from Nissan north America for the $815 that I have been charged.

Cvt light comes on and says power may be reduced in limp mode. Mil light came on motor is miss firing.

My light came on it said engine malfunction reduced speed service now I checked online for recalls found one and “got it fixed” I left the dealership and had to turn back as the light came back on got it “fixed again” I left later that day my transmission light came on and reduced speed I brought it back to dealership they then kept my car for almost two weeks “fixed the problem again” 3 days later had to bring it back a 2 days later got it back and now tomorrow I have to bring it back. Major safety issue my life is in danger every time I drive as it sporadically reduces speed to under 10 miles an hour I do not feel safe I can’t drive on the highway could you imagine if that happens with people driving 70 plus miles an hour behind me I will die and this needs to be addressed ASAP.

When accelerating vehicle will lose power and not accelerate. Releasing the gas pedal for a few seconds and then pressing it again the vehicle will accelerate. Also, when coming to a stop the transmission with make a high pitch whining noise.

On 2/14/26 my car decelerated on the interstate. No warning lights came on. I parked the car and had it towed the next day to the dealership. Several days later they told me I needed a new engine, and then later told me that Nissan would not replace the engine but told them I need the egr cooling system replaced and that would resolve my problem. 3 weeks later I picked up my car ($3722) and immediately upon driving it off the lot the car started smoking. Once home, it decelerated again prompting another tow back to the dealership on the same day I picked it up. During that time, dashboard and engine lights came on. 3 days later I received a phone call from the dealership stating I need a new egr sensor which should have been done the first time but was not (by a less experienced mechanic), for free, and the part would be in tomorrow 3/12/26. He also stated that now the car is running extremely rough and knocking (which I told him has not been our experience at all and I did not know what he was talking about). He then went on to say it needs motor mounts now. That was 2 weeks ago. Since then I have called multiple times to get status updates on my car and no one will return my call. My car has now been there for 40 days as of today. I have been given a 120,000 mile warranty extension on my engine per Nissan, but Nissan refuses to fix it and my car is not listed as part of the new recall, which I do not understand at all. Nissan needs to replace my engine as first diagnosed but reneged on.

The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while her son was driving 70 mph, the vehicle abruptly lost power, and there was smoke coming from the engine compartment and tailpipe. The driver pulled over to the side of the highway and turned off the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed with engine failure. The engine was replaced, and the vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the transmission failed after the engine replacement. There were several unknown warning lights illuminated, and the dealer informed the contact that the battery needed to be replaced. The battery was replaced; however, the warning lights remained illuminated. The dealer then informed the contact that the transmission needed to be replaced. The transmission was not repaired or replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 76,633.

Loud whirring and humming no side coming from the driveshaft when the temperature is below 30°. It goes away when driver for about 3-5 miles and comes back when it cools down next drive.

I purchased this vehicle as a Nissan certified pre-owned in July 2024 and also purchased an extended warranty. In June 2025, I received notice of the kr engine bearing recall affecting this vehicle. I brought the vehicle to Nissan dealerships three separate times regarding this recall and related concerns, but no repair was performed and I was told to wait because a remedy was not yet available. On January 29th, while driving, the vehicle began shaking severely and white smoke began coming from the tailpipe. There were no warning lights. The vehicle became undrivable and had to be towed to a Nissan dealership. The dealership diagnosed the failure as a failed egr cooler that allowed coolant into the engine, which they state destroyed the engine and requires a full engine replacement. The dealership is now claiming this is not covered under warranty, recall, or extended coverage. However, the kr engine bearing recall specifically addresses internal engine defects that can lead to overheating, coolant system damage, and engine failure. The egr cooler failure appears to be secondary damage caused by the known engine defect described in the recall. I had already presented the vehicle multiple times to Nissan for this issue after the recall was announced, and no repair was made. I am now being told I must pay for a full engine replacement on a vehicle with an active engine recall and extended engine warranty coverage, despite having sought service multiple times before the catastrophic failure occurred. I believe this is a direct result of Nissan failing to properly address a known engine defect covered by recall, and I am concerned this represents a broader safety issue for other owners whose engines may fail before Nissan implements a remedy.

During highway driving, my 2023 Nissan Rogue experienced sudden loss of power and entered limp mode without warning. Engine rpm surged abnormally, forward driving and collision avoidance sensors became disabled, and the vehicle could not accelerate properly. The fuel range also dropped rapidly during this event. This created a dangerous situation in traffic (I was in the mountains in virginia) and placed me and other motorists at risk. The condition is intermittent and did not leave diagnostic codes. The vehicle was taken to a Nissan dealership, where recall repairs and ecm reprogramming were performed, but no root cause was identified and there is no assurance the problem will not recur. I am concerned this is a serious safety defect involving loss of propulsion and disabled safety systems.

The engine failed while driving on the interstate at 65+ mph. The malfunction indicator lights came on and beeped loudly, including engine malfunction and awd malfunction (which I don't have). The vehicle lost power, and the engine began making a frightening noise. I had to get over several lanes with no working gas pedal, and I'm lucky nobody was hurt. I had to be towed thirty miles to the nearest dealership. The dealership, who didn't answer when I called ahead to let them know I was coming, was unhelpful, and employees made jokes about just trading it in instead of fixing it. They said it could be months, and that there's no remedy for the recall. I have to wait until they re-open on Monday to speak with anybody. The only symptom prior was that sometimes the vehicle wouldn't recognize my key fob being near/in the vehicle, but I thought it was a battery problem. I thankfully knew about the recall and mentioned it to the dealership, but they don't seem to be agreeable to loaning me a vehicle in the meantime, so this will be a difficult repair process.

Failed power train part that Nissan knows about( TSB notify to shops ) and is not willing to fix. This item is failing premature and can definitely be a safety hazard. My wife was driving this when it completely failed. She was afraid her car was falling apart, vibrating excessively. It is the left hand side motor mounts. It causes serious vibration throughout the vehicle when driving or stopped. They issued a TSB ntb24-14 for 2021-2023 Nissan Rogues. Looking back I would say there was small vibrations around 30-32k miles but it was just intermitting. I'm not a mechanic nor my wife. We bought a Nissan because we were told they were safe and reliable vehicles. I do not feel this way about it anymore.

Within the first week of owning my 2023 Nissan Rogue, the vehicle began losing power from highway speeds to around 20 mph, stalling during turns, shaking violently, and displaying warning lights. These issues continued for over a year. Several times I nearly crashed because the vehicle suddenly slowed down or lost power on the highway. Nissan repeatedly told me nothing was wrong, but the vehicle was later included in recall 25v-437 for engine bearing failure. The vehicle became unsafe to drive, and the engine behavior matched the symptoms described by others in the recall.

Nissan had a recall on the turbo hose. Neither the dealer (carvana) or the manufacturer (Nissan) told us about the recall until the matter was too late. It is available to inspect upon request. My car stop in the middle of the hwy without notice, warning, caution lights on dash, etc. My fiancés, daughter, and myself lives were all in danger as we were all in the car. Because the turbo hose was not replaced there was insufficient air flow to the engine. It acts as a conduit for air, connecting components like the air intake to the turbocharger, the turbocharger to the intercooler, and the intercooler to the engine's intake manifold. The car has been inspected by 2 mechanical shops whom have both said the exact same thing and auto zone diagnostic tool.

I was shifting into reverse but the gear slipped back into drive. I didn't react in time and I drove through a wooden fence. The car was damaged but no one, including myself, was hurt.

While driving, the engine started making a loud rattling noise, as if there were loose parts inside. The noise increases when accelerating, and the vehicle has noticeably lost power, especially during gear shifts. It feels like the transmission is struggling or the engine isn’t delivering enough power. This issue raised safety concerns because the vehicle doesn’t respond properly when accelerating or merging into traffic.

1. Component failed: engine bearings (main, a-, c-, l-link). The vehicle is available for inspection at the dealership. 2. Safety risk: complete engine failure while driving, causing loss of power and a high risk of a crash. 3. Problem confirmed? yes, by the Nissan dealership. 4. Inspected by manufacturer? yes, indirectly. Nissan issued official safety recall r25a8 for this exact defect. 5. Warning signs? yes. Check engine light, unusual engine noises, rough performance, and warning messages appeared before the repair attempt.

My vehicle, VIN [xxx] , was operating normally when a check engine light appeared, along with a message indicating engine malfunction and loss of power. I took the vehicle to an authorized Nissan dealership, reed Nissan orlando, where I was assisted by service advisor aaron berning. At the dealership, I was informed that the vehicle had an active turbocharger recall, which could be related to the issue. The recall repair was performed; however, the vehicle was returned to me with the check engine light still illuminated and continued loss of power, despite having no such issues prior to the recall service. The dealership documented an engine problem in writing on the service invoice (invoice no. Xxx, dated 09/04/2025) but refused to repair it, stating that the issue was not covered under the recall. Despite the problem arising immediately after the recall repair, I was required to pay out-of-pocket for a diagnostic inspection. Approximately one week later, the vehicle again experienced engine failure and significant loss of power, making it unusable. I contacted Nissan consumer affairs (Nissan north America), but after reviewing the dealership’s position, Nissan chose to uphold the decision not to cover the repairs. Due to the unresolved mechanical issue, the vehicle became inoperable, causing loss of income, as I rely on the vehicle for work with delivery and rideshare services. I was ultimately unable to continue payments on the financed vehicle, resulting in repossession by the lender. I am submitting this complaint as a last resort and respectfully request that this matter be reviewed and investigated, as the vehicle did not present these issues prior to the recall service. Supporting documentation is available upon request. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

While driving my 2023 Nissan Rogue, the engine suddenly stalled as I approached a stop sign. The dashboard lit up with multiple warning lights, including the oil pressure warning. When I attempted to restart, the vehicle made a loud grinding/knocking sound, failed to start properly, and then shut off again. I was unable to restart the vehicle myself. Later, at the dealership, they reported that they were able to turn it on and drive it, but they could not confirm the stall I experienced. The vehicle has also shown other concerning symptoms: shaking when idling, jerking when stopping or accelerating, and occasional grinding noises. My local Nissan dealer eventually reported a broken transmission mount but did not find engine or transmission codes. I am very concerned that my symptoms (stalling, oil pressure light, grinding on restart) are consistent with the open recall for engine bearings on this model. The dealer admitted they currently have no guidance or remedy from Nissan for this recall, so no proper inspection or fix could be performed. Safety hazard: this is a serious safety issue. The car stalled unexpectedly in traffic, leaving me without power. I was unable to restart it, and I feared the engine could fail completely at higher speeds, which could put me and others at risk. Concern: Nissan has not yet provided dealers with instructions or remedies for this recall, leaving owners with unsafe vehicles on the road. I strongly believe my case should be investigated as part of the bearing recall.

Oil pan plug broke off of oil pan. Will need full replacement of oil pan. I'm seeing online a lot of others having the same issue with this exact model.

Vehicle start/stop feature causes the vehicle to “jump” forward and shutter upon engine engagement. Transmission replaced and a rattling occurring.

The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the vehicle started running rough, and the engine was sputtering. There was no warning light illuminated. Additionally, the transmission failed to shift as intended. The contact stated that the transmission hesitated before upshifting or downshifting while depressing the accelerator pedal or the brake pedal. The contact recently received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000 (engine and engine cooling); and related the failure to the recall. The contact scheduled an appointment with the dealer. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair because the part needed for the recall repair was not yet available. The failure mileage was approximately 9,000.

The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 25v437000 (engine and engine cooling); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that while driving 60 mph, the contact noticed that the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of fuel. An unknown warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and inspected the vehicle. The contact did not notice any fluid leaks on the ground. However, the failure recurred a short distance afterward. The contact noticed that the instrument cluster indicated that the vehicle had shifted from drive(d) to 4x4 mode. The contact heard an abnormal grinding sound coming from the transmission. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and noticed that the fuel tank was almost empty. The contact stated that thirty minutes before the failure the contact had refueled. The vehicle was towed to a towing yard. The contact filled the fuel tank and drove to the residence. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the vehicle remained at the dealer unrepaired. The contact did not return to collect the vehicle and turned in the license plates to the department of motor vehicles (dmv). The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact was informed that a supervisor would reach out. The contact spoke with the supervisor and was informed that there would be no buy back of the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.

Battery had to be replaced during 1st oil change. Transmission failed at about 30,000 miles and was replaced. Transmission light went on again we were told it was the transmission it was the gear shift assembly (claiming something spilled in it - not true). Not covered and would cost $1350. . . Charged $260 for diagnostic. Had repaired separately, transmission light is still on. Claiming not covered under warranty even though car has about 80,000 highway miles. I think this car may have an undying electrical issue and our safety is at risk.

I’m writing to let you know that I’m filing a plain complaint with Nissan north America far rockaway family Nissan. Address 600 burnside Ave. , far rockaway, NY 11691.

The vehicle continuously loses power. It is a manufacturers defect as stated in the recall I’m losing money, not able to work my job.

There is an odd engine 'rattling', 'guzzling', 'slurping', type noise coming from the engine and the engine has begun to idle very rough even after fresh oil change. This is directly the issue cited from Nissan as recall with no current solution - which is unacceptable. We are not interested in waiting until the car malfunctions worse and in a dangerous way in order to get this recall addressed.

The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35-40 mph, the vehicle started lagging and lost motive power as if the vehicle would shut off. The continuously variable transmission (cvt) code was displayed on the instrument panel with an engine malfunction. The failure occurred the following morning. The vehicle was towed to the dealer however, the dealer could not retrieve the cvt code to determine the cause of the failure. The dealer stated that the transmission fluid would be flushed and refilled as a temporary repair until the vehicle could be diagnosed and cvt code had been retrieved. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 58,000.

Major engine problems. The engine has loud knocking noise. While driving the car it shakes badly. When the hood is open you can see the engine jumping and it’s not properly secured. The engine can fall out causing a safety hazard and accident. Vehicle is not safe to drive. When driving the car loses speed immediately going over 55 mph.

At 8:00 pm, driving 70 mph on [xxx] from dallas to houston, texas, multiple warning lights and messages illuminated on the dash. Other than a low fuel warning, there were no other warnings or messages at the time of the incident. The warnings and messages displayed were "awd error", aeb system off, rab system off, slip indicator or vdc off, master warning light, and "engine malfunction power reduced service now. " when this occurred, the vehicle began decelerating, and I was unable to accelerate and return to highway speeds. I was driving in the left lane and had to make my way to the shoulder on the right of the highway. Fortunately, I came to a stop approximately two miles from the [xxx] exit for centerville, texas. It would have been extremely dangerous to remain on the shoulder, especially after sunset, so after reading the owner's manual, I decided to travel the shoulder at the very reduced speed my vehicle allowed. After exiting to a safe location and refueling, I called 24/7 Nissan roadside assistance at 8:50 pm. I was told a tow truck would arrive around 10:20 pm, and I would receive text messages with status updates. I called three more times, at 9:32, 11:28, and 11:54 pm. I never received a text message because no towing providers were ever located and dispatched to my location. On the final call at 11:54, I was told they would try again at 8:00 am. Centerville, texas is a small town with a population under 1,000 people. I was left stranded nearly 150 miles from home in a non-major metropolitan city without ample resources such as uber to take me to the nearest hotel. Furthermore, had I not called back, no one from Nissan was going to inform me that I would not receive a tow. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S.
