7 Wiper problem of the 2026 Nissan Rogue

Failure Date: 08/25/2026

While driving at highway speeds, the panoramic sunroof glass spontaneously exploded without any prior warning, impact, or rock strikes. The sudden, loud explosion caused severe driver distraction and panic, creating an immediate safety hazard on the highway. Additionally, shattered glass fragments fell onto the interior sunshade, posing a significant risk of lacerations to the occupants. The vehicle was immediately taken to an authorized Nissan dealership, where service technicians inspected the roof and found no evidence of external impact. A warranty case was opened with Nissan corporate. The vehicle is currently sitting at my local Nissan dealership and is fully available for inspection. The dealer has taken photos (again) and submitted them to the manufacturer. However, the vehicle has been sitting for weeks without a repair timeline, and the dealer is refusing to provide a warranty loaner vehicle while waiting for Nissan corporate to approve the claim. There were no warning lights, messages, or prior symptoms before this sudden structural failure.

8 Wiper problem of the 2025 Nissan Rogue

Failure Date: 08/21/2026

After multiple issues with the motor of my new Rogue, my windshield spontaneously shattered this week. I'm glad I was not driving the vehicle when it occurred because apparently it sounded like a shotgun when it ruptured. This is a major issue apparently for many Rogue owners. My concern is what else might be wrong with the vehicle - not a safe vehicle for sure. If you're a mom and driving with little kiddos - please find a safer vehicle! Nissan is repairing the windshield and is trying to offer to trade the vehicle - which is a sign that they are aware of this problem among Rogues.

I opened the trunk with the button on the dash and while the hatch was open a few minutes I heard a loud pop and realized the rear glass blew out and shards of glass came rolling down from the upper right hand side of the rear window and it had also spider cracked throughout the window. This happened at night 10:30 pm it was 42 degrees and light rain. I had just driven the truck for a half hour before and there was no warning lights or sounds prior. The vehicle was stopped and off and all that proceeded the spontaneous explosion was me opening the trunk and within 3 minutes of opening the trunk the glass exploded on its own. I never had a problem before this event and never had it checked out by the dealership or mechanic as I was unaware this was a common issue and had to find out after this happened. I had taken this car several times for several recalls but was never informed of any recalls or issues regarding the rear glass spontaneously blowing out. This is a serious issue and a safety issue and would like answers as to why this wasn't brought to my attention or part of the previous recalls even though it's been a known issue for this make and model for some time.

25 Wiper problem of the 2024 Nissan Rogue

Failure Date: 03/18/2026

I purchased my 2024 Nissan Rogue 12 days ago at bob bell in baltimore MD. Day 12 I was leaving work like usual. When I closed my driver door the rear hatch glass exploded into a million pieces. Clearly there must have been a manufacter defect in the glass for this to occur. Contacted dealer and Nissan consumer affairs. Both are telling me that this is not a recall issue nor is it covered under warranty. After arriving home I googled this situation and come to fin that this a very common isssue in the 2021-2024 Nissan Rogues. There is a class action suit against Nissan about this issue. At least in my situation I was parked when it exploded but had I been driving that glass flying could have been a much worse situation. I just want Nissan to own up to this and cover the repair. I also want to make others aware of this known problem. Beings that I was leaving work the whole event was captured on security footage.
