On xxx I was traveling with my [xxx] mother who has 2 plates to her hips from a fx. We had stopped at a rest area. I went to get her out of the front passenger side and the door would not open from outside or inside. The other doors were fine. She is not able to climb over the front console so I called the police. They were able to get her over the front seat to the back. Very upsetting for this to happen. I went online to see what the issue could be and saw there is a class action suit against Nissan on the door locks(actuator) as Nissan is refusing to do a recall. I went to my Nissan dealer to do repairs and sure enough it was the actuator. Cost of $940. 95. The dealer could have cared less of what happened. This is a safety issue. What if all my locks did not open and she was stuck in the car since the temps were 96 that day. Receipt for repairs are attached. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I have two major safety concerns for my 2021 Nissan Rogue. 1) failed rear door actuators on both the driver and passenger side of vehicle: I own a 2021 Nissan Rogue with approximately 68,000 miles. The rear driver and passenger side door lock actuator failed, causing the rear doors to no longer lock or unlock electronically using either the key fob or the interior power door lock switch. The door must now be operated manually from the inside, no one can freely open the doors from the outside. I have to crawl in the backseat to open the doors. This creates a safety concern because, in an emergency, a rear passenger may not be able to quickly exit the vehicle if the door cannot be unlocked electronically. This failure affects a rear passenger door and could delay a child's or other passenger's ability to exit the vehicle quickly in an emergency if the electronic lock cannot be operated. It also creates a vehicle security concern because the door does not lock properly. I have found multiple reports from other 2021 Nissan Rogue owners describing the same rear door lock actuator failure at similar mileage. This appears to be more than an isolated incident. The vehicle has not been involved in an accident, and the failure occurred during normal use. 2) failed egr valve: the egr cooler has failed internally and is allowing engine coolant into the combustion chambers. The vehicle experienced a sudden engine malfunction related to an egr (exhaust gas recirculation) system failure. The diagnostic trouble code was p0401 –and was diagnosed with an egr cooler failure causing coolant to leak into the combustion chambers. While driving, the vehicle displayed “engine malfunction-power reduced-service now. ” the car went into reduced power mode, significantly limiting acceleration and normal vehicle operation, creating dangerous driving conditions. A sudden reduction in engine power on a highway or in traffic presents a significant safety hazard. Please investigate a recall.

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 contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving out of town, the vehicle suddenly went into limp mode. The accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to exceed 70 mph and decelerated unintendedly. The vehicle was driven approximately 30 mph to the residence. The message “engine malfunction” was displayed, and the temperature gauge rose to hot. The 4wd message was displayed. The vehicle was pulled over and inspected, and the contact became aware that one of the coolant reservoirs was empty, and coolant was added to the coolant reservoir. The odometer and infotainment screen also repeatedly turned on and off. The vehicle was towed to a local Nissan dealer, where it was diagnosed with a coolant leak in the engine, which caused the engine failure and turbocharger failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 26v080000 (engine and engine cooling). The manufacturer opened a case regarding the failure but offered to cover only 30 percent of the cost of the repair. The failure mileage was approximately 95,600.

A warning ?? keep coming up. The only thing I can see according to manual is to take it to a dealership. My blind spot detection is flashing on when nothing is there. When it stops then it's no longer working at all. Every time I go to take it in the dealership is works correctly. My power windows are no longer working as they should either. There is a recall that looks like this same issue on Rogues but my VIN isn't included. When it's diagnosed at auto center nothing comes up even with the ?? showing.

When starting the car, the park light flashes on the dashboard and the electronic parking brake will not disengage. The brake will also not disengage if you switch into gear and try to start driving like it would if the electronics were working properly. There is a start error message displayed on the dashboard as well when the car is started: I had to turn the car off and on dozens of times before it resolved. A google search revealed this is happening to a lot of owners of the ‘23 Rogues. One person needed a chip replaced. Others said the only way they could get the car to move was turning the car on and off, sometimes taking hours. I was stranded without being able to drive away.
In mid-xxx, my wife reported that all the warning lights (except check engine) lit up along with the warning sounds. The engine immediately started losing power. When car was pulled over, it sounded like a rough running engine and very little power. Since the first time, the issue has occurred a couple dozen of times. When the car is turned off for 30 seconds and turned back on, everything resets and there is no issue. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for this occurring (happens in hot or cold temps, wet or dry conditions, all speeds, etc). Owner (me) put a fixd device into the obd2 port and it provided several error codes - not of which made much sense. I took screen shots of the codes and put [xxx] ai to work. Tried to troubleshoot myself but it got complicated very quickly. Took vehicle into Nissan dealership on xxx and explained that the codes came on intermittently and described the issue and engine power reduction. I paid for the engine scan ($200) and, as I thought, it came back reading no codes. I then provided to the service agent (dave) an email with a video of the codes happening in real time along with the error codes provided by the fixd device. The dealership was not able to pull any error codes nor were they able to duplicate the failures. After 1 week, I took the car back since we needed it. The safety issue is that the engine loses power and has stalled on occasion. The time my wife was driving 60 mph and engine lost power was scary and she had a friend in the car at the time. I have video clips of the errors while driving which will provide you additional information. However, I was not able to attach them below as . Mp4 files are not allowed. Will provide on request.

I turn on the car with the remote and it doesn't work; then when I try to start the car, it won't start, it gives an error and won't start; it all happens because of using the remote start; they updated the software because they didn't want to replace the engine due to a recall of defective bearings, and now they've made the starting problem worse, claiming it's an injector issue; they scanned it, reset it, and it's working again; so what injector problems does the software say it has??? it only happens when I plug a device into the usb port or when I start the car remotely; I'm frustrated because it's my work vehicle.
This winter a crack in the seal opened up on the driver's side wheel well. We were not aware of the crack. We noticed that the car was collecting water in the carpets down on the floor board. The water became increasingly worse over time down on the floor of the car. We tried looking for leaks and drying out the car with towels. We could not find the leaks. We tried to dry the car out as much as possible, yet, every time my soon drove the car to school at everett washington community college the water became increasingly worse down on the floor of the car. So, my son stopped driving the car for a couple of months. So, I bought the car from my son. He got a different car. I tried to start the car last Sunday at 3pm in the afternoon. Flames started down on the carpet directly below the pedals. Black, dark smoke billowed out from below the steering column. I ran into my kitchen to put out the flames. The battery is damaged too. The battery is leaking acid out of the side and bulging on one side. I took it to the dealership. To see if it could be repaired.

On June 12, 2026, while driving my 2022 Nissan Rogue on the grand central expressway in new york, the engine suddenly shut down and the vehicle lost motive power in active highway traffic. The vehicle would not restart. I called 911, and police responded and protected the disabled vehicle until it could be towed to safety. I later learned the vehicle was subject to Nissan safety recall r25d1 / NHTSA 25v-437 involving engine bearing defects that may cause engine damage and loss of motive power. A Nissan dealer inspected the vehicle and documented that the engine would not turn over. The technician removed the oil pan, found metal debris, and determined the engine was seized. Nissan subsequently replaced the engine and turbocharger. After the replacement, I began experiencing additional problems. The vehicle hesitated during acceleration. On August 15, the check engine light illuminated with an “engine malfunction” warning. The dealer subsequently replaced an exhaust-related sensor. On August 23, the srs/air bag warning light illuminated and remained on before later turning off. The same srs warning occurred again on August 24, and the vehicle also failed to start on the first attempt. On August 26, another warning appeared stating “malfunction – see owner’s manual. ” Nissan consumer affairs advised me that these subsequent problems are unrelated to the engine recall. I am concerned about the continuing safety and reliability problems occurring shortly after the engine and turbo replacement and am requesting that NHTSA document and evaluate these incidents for a potential safety defect.
Issue: garage caught fire. All wood (trusses, joists, walls) were in tact. Estimated in tact amount=99%. The vehicle was completely consumed. The hood melted, plastic, seats, tires consumed. Car was not driven day of incident. Origin was attributed to garage. Cause was undetermined by fire department. Report does not today address the vehicle in any way shape or form. There is no documentation as to what was seen upon removing garage doors. Had the can already been consumed? did vehicle initially encapsulate the fire prior to moving into garage structure? it is speculated that NHTSA part 573 recall report 22v-875 may be applicable when viewed from design engineering point of view and not strictly to only vehicles addressed by Nissan in that report. There were no prior warnings of any kind that foretold the ensuing events. I am trying to get the fire department to amend report to record stated belief of fire origin (vehicle) which is not today evidenced in the report and as per the stated opinion by one of the fire fighters. I am further insisting that the insurance company assign a forensic expert in evaluating the origin and cause of the fire. Nissan has not been notified to date. I am imploring NHTSA to take this apparent prior documented safety issue further beyond what has been concluded in order to prevent any future safety issues should it so be judged by NHTSA as the authority in these matters.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 75 mph, the vehicle was driving sluggishly and decelerated unintendedly. The vehicle failed to exceed 50 mph while driving with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic, who diagnosed the vehicle with variable valve timing failure with dtc: p0012 displayed. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure reoccurred and the vehicle was taken to the dealer. The contact was informed that the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed by the dealer; however, the electromagnetic compatibility (emc) was reprogrammed, and the check engine warning light was no longer illuminated. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 76,000.
On June 3, 2026, I brought my vehicle to o'brien Nissan of bloomington because I was experiencing significant problems with the continuously variable transmission (cvt). Specifically, the service now light came on, the vehicle would not shift into park, and I was concerned about a cvt malfunction. I explained these concerns to the service advisor jason who is the current service manager and expected that the vehicle would be thoroughly inspected and any necessary repairs would be completed. The purpose of my visit was specifically to have the transmission issue addressed and repaired before it developed into a more serious safety concern. The dealership's response was as follows: • complaint: the cvt malfunction service now light came on, and the car would not shift into park • cause: tech found multiple stored codes. No current codes. Tech tested transmission operation and found no issue at this time. • correction: no repairs suggested for this visit according to the service manager jason, the cvt was not serviced because it was approximately 3:30 p. M. When the customer returned the service request form through email and it was close to the end of the workday. When I got to the dealership to pick up and pay the total should have been $336. 00 but it was $109. 00 that’s when I requested to speak to the manager on duty. I expressed my concern about the cvt and the actions of the vehicle and how it would just take off when trying to park. I was assured that my vehicle was safe to drive, and that sometimes lights just appear because the cars are digital per shawn the manager on duty and I relied on that representation when leaving the dealership. the multi-point inspection report from June 3, 2026, also noted the following: component status transmission fluid level/condition cautioned fuel injection system cautioned brake fluid condition cautioned cabin/hepa filter cautioned engine air filter failed rear brake linings (lr/rr) cautioned front collision avoidance light.
Component/system: the fire department determined the cause of the fire to be accidental due to an electrical malfunction within the vehicle. The most extensive damage was located in the engine compartment, though damage spread to the passenger compartment as well. The vehicle is available on request. The vehicle caught fire while parked on a street. No injuries or displacements occured. However, the vehicle became "well involved" with fire, creating an active emergency that required emergent fire department response and suppression. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? since the vehicle receive so much damage, it would only be the emergency response and origin determination by lubbock fire rescue. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? the vehicle was inspected on-scene by lubbock fire rescue (unit e7). The fire department noted no signs of vandalism or tampering, concluding the cause was accidental. The police was also on the scene as well. Were there any warning messages? the owner stated they had driven the vehicle around 20:30 (8:30 pm) the previous evening and it had been parked since. The fire did not break out until approximately 05:13 am the following morning. There wasn’t any warning lamps or unusual symptoms l present during or prior to that final drive. Summary: on may 28, 2026 the 2018 Nissan Rogue internally combusted. Subsequent inspection of the vehicle revealed fire damage in both the passenger compartment and the engine compartment, with the most severe and extensive damage concentrated in the engine bay.

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).
The driver-side door and left rear passenger door do not properly lock or unlock using the key fob. This is a consistent issue and creates a safety concern because the doors may remain unlocked while the vehicle is in operation. This malfunction poses a potential security and passenger safety risk. Manually locking and unlocking the doors while entering, exiting, or operating the vehicle is inconvenient and could create hazardous situations. No warning lights, alerts, or diagnostic messages have appeared related to this issue. The vehicle is less than four years old and has been maintained under normal operating conditions. A failure involving the power door lock system should not occur at this stage of ownership.
The light component above the dash completely just fell out while I was on the highway, hanging by wires and obscuring my vision. Also there is a bluetooth audio issue where no one can hear me when my phone is connected via bluetooth or wired.

I am reporting a severe safety hazard and failure of a critical safety remedy on my 2015 Nissan Rogue. Over a 23-day period, a faulkner Nissan, a certified Nissan dealer mismanaged a severe water intrusion defect. On April 28, 2026 (102,965 miles), I was charged $1,228. 67 out-of-pocket for recall-related burnt and shorted harness connectors (recall 22v024000 / r21b9). On may 13, 2026 (104,656 miles), the vehicle returned with electronic and steering errors; the dealer cleared active can codes and dismissed the issue. On may 21, 2026 (105,060 miles), the vehicle suffered a catastrophic failure. Ongoing water intrusion completely flooded the driver and passenger floorboards, rusted the structural floor, destroyed the previous repair, and shorted out the vehicle's tail lights. The vehicle is currently an active fire and crash hazard due to unmitigated water entry onto major wiring systems.

My vehicle is included in the correct year range and shows the same symptoms as NHTSA id number: 16v911000. The airbag light is also on and I am worried that it will not operate properly in an accident. I contacted the local Nissan dealer and they said there were no recalls on this vehicle. They also told me that no recalls had been completed on my vehicle. I am concerned that they either missed some vins in the recall or that they have incorrect information. Nissan was not willing to help, I also contacted their consumer affairs.
The passenger compartment doors locking mechanism can fail to operate properly preventing access to the the car through the external handles and can cause hanging if inside the cabin requiring multiple pulls to get the door to unlock. When the lock toggles are not completely in the locked or unlocked position, the solenoid will still function but will not unlock/lock the problem door. If the door has the child lock is activated and the locking mechanism is bound up because of the toggle, this creates an entrapment issue if you don't know what is going on. Yt link: https://youtube.

Our front and backup camera do not work. We took it to a Nissan dealer on April 20, 2026, and was advised that the avm control unit has to be replaced. They found and recommended: "all system scan found avm missing from dtc sheet. Performed can diag found avm offline. Rec replace avm control unit. " research shows that there is a defect in the rear wiper grommet or seal allowing water to enter the liftgate, contributing to the overall failure of the rear hatch components - water corroded the rear backup camera unit.
2015 Nissan Rogue was off and parked for 20 minutes when it went up in flames. There was a recall of 2014-2016 Rogues for electrical issues that could lead to fire, but my car was not recalled.
The 2020 Nissan Rogue as I was driving, started smoking, then stalled. I immediately got out and popped the hood and there was flames everywhere. Entire engine bay burned. I saved the car from burning completely by dumping water. As I was in a national forest, that is very acceptable to wildfires. Fire department and fire investigator came out. Fire investigator said it was of his opinion that it started on the passenger side, electric cooling fan for the radiator. Which I agree after looking at the aftermath and noticing where to fire was coming from as I was putting it out.
We had bought this vehicle from the dealership in March 2026, it had seemed like they were trying to get rid of it. Within under a month of purchase, it flashed a malfunction error and broke down. Sent to dealership, they had fixed the relay. Problem has since worsened. Car runs extremely rough and I get two malfunction errors. During long periods of driving with extensive starting and stopping, I notice issues such as a delay when shifting from park to drive. Im currently studying automotive technology where I got to diagnose the car. It is showing 11 codes. [xxx], [xxx], [xxx], [xxx], [xxx], [xxx], [xxx].

Three out of the four door lock actuators have gone bad. It’s the front driver side door, rear driver side door, and rear passenger side door. That’s not normal wear and tear, that’s a defect and it’s a safety issue.
I am reporting a recurring safety issue with the vehicle’s auto engine stop/start system. When the vehicle comes to a stop, the engine sometimes shuts off normally (other time only the auto-brakes engage, but engine stays on), but then the system behaves unpredictably. The engine attempts to restart with a violent jolt, causing the entire vehicle to shake. This occurs even when I am fully stopped with my foot on the brake. It feels like the vehicle is trying to lurch forward or restart against resistance. The issue is repeatable, happens in normal driving conditions, and creates a safety concern because the sudden jolt can startle the driver, cause unintended movement, or lead to loss of control in traffic. I believe this may indicate a defect in the auto?engine?stop system, engine mounts, starter system, or related control modules. Please investigate, as other owners may be experiencing the same unsafe behavior.
I told the dealership that there were recalls on my car, but because they can’t find it in the system they’re saying that there are no recalls. I did check the NHTSA website and the recalls are still not showing up, but aaa has me down for five recalls. I have all the information on them. I would like the dealership to at least look into them because I don’t feel safe driving my car. .
