ENGINE
The engine cuts off on me. It takes a long time to get up to speed. The engine is burning oil. There is no oil on the ground and no leaks present. Smoke comes out of the rear pipes when I start the car. Again there are no oil leaks present but the oil is burning out every 5-7 days.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Several problems have shown up since purchasing this car in December of last year. The back window has rolled down on it's own about 6 times within the same week I purchased the car. The head unit in the vehicle had to be reset by the dealer when they first traded the car in, according to service history and it's still having problems. I can hear the other caller on phone calls intermittently but they can't hear me. My phone has briefly disconnected from the Bluetooth system saying it couldn't be found. I thought it might be a phone issue but I got another phone and it still does it. I have a video of the head unit being completely unresponsive. The music was playing but none of the buttons were doing anything when I pushed them and the map was all that it would show. I've also had issues with burning smells when using the heated steering wheel and heated seats. I believe there is an electrical problem causing all of this but since the dealer can't duplicate the problem when I've driven it into service, they are refusing to do anything. The collision detector also goes off on it's own when I'm nowhere near another car.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, STEERING, ENGINE
While in drive mode my car just shut off. The dash cluster, screen, etc remained on. I was able to put the car in park and start it again, however this could have caused me a horrible accident losing power while in drive like this. I just purchased this vehicle in June of 2024. It has 81k on it. I called the dealership which I bought it at Mccarthy Auto in Sedalia MO. They said I should call Nissan.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
The FCW system would come on for no reason. I've had the car 3 months this had been a problem as well as other crash warnings of the vehicle during this time period. then on May 31st I was in an accident that I should have gotten a warning as to to close but didn't. I had reported to the dealership I purchased car from but no information to help. I'm upset. I have read that this is an ongoing problem with the make, year, and model. Do I have any recourse to address to the maker, Nissan?

ENGINE
Leasing 2021 Nissan rogue and approximately September 2023 engine making terrible noises. Brought to dealership and was told engine failure and they were not covering it since they found some sludge. After fighting with them they asked for maintenance records which I gave them all up to date. They still refuse to replace engine. Car was held hostage unless I paid for engine which I did. Looking for way to recoup my money

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I was driving alone on city streets approx 35 mph when the car suddenly braked for no apparent reason. There was no one close ahead or (luckily) close behind me, but there could easily have been. There was no heads up warning, just sudden braking. I have not taken it to repair shop because I just don't have the time or capacity.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
UNKNOWN I fell victim to a wiretapping incident that is still under Federal investigation that began in my vehicle on June 23rd, 2023. This concern is in regard to life safety and loss of control of the vehicle on or around the same time, due to radio transmission feedback beeping coming from the passenger side speaker, as well as what sounded like an emergency response unit radio. The noise would not stop until I pulled the plug on the battery of the car as well as the fuse panel to the head unit. While driving the vehicle in Converse TX around August 1st, 2023, I noticed the speedometer locking at a higher than average speed for the area I was in, like it would go into cruise control automatically, without my consent. I then hit the brake to slow it down, but the speedometer locked again and would read what I believed to be 5mph over the speed limit, but I could hear the engine revving and feel myself speeding up. I parked the car and pulled the majority of the fuse panel after this event, barely used it, reset the firmware version on the head unit and do not have this issue today. I reported this to Nissan twice in person, once on the phone and twice in writing. Nissan refuses to look into it until I pay for them to plug up their equipment to determine what happened and that there is nothing wrong since there is not yet a recall leading to my event.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The actuators on the doors are failing, so the door locks are unreliable. I paid to have the front passenger door's actuator replaced at a cost to me of almost $700. Now I am having the same issue with the driver's side actuator, which means another $700 repair. I worry that the same thing will happen to the two back doors. To me, this is a quality issue. The car is barely 3 years old (i purchased it in August 2020). If I don't spend the money to get this fixed, I run the risk of getting carjacked or the car broken into. I have tried and failed to get any kind of resolution from Nissan consumer affairs - they keep using stall tactics rather than being straightforward. I am also unhappy with the resolution of the jackknife key recall. They did the bare minimum to resolve this issue and now I have a key that is forced to stay in the open position at all times. The key is now over 4" long. It's also sharp and I've lost count of how many times I've stabbed my leg and put holes in my pants pockets.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I went through a recent DDoS attack by a neighbor where they used signal boosting to spoof my key fob. From there, they were able to access the Intelligent Drive System, GPS and audio. On June 25th, the same criminals tracked me down through the GPS outside of Marshall TX and attmpted to hijack the vehicle. I had to call 911 and run for safety, it was terrifying. The entire day I could hear interference over the radio, this remained an issue for weeks. I took it to a Nissan Dealer to show them the mass amount of Malware that was installed, but was told I could just buy another car instead. To make matters worse, at one point in time, this group that hacked the vehicle, was able to alter my speed remotely. It is impossible to have anyone at Nissan take me seriously on this matter, yet you can see online that this is a known concern for this model specifically. I believe it is pertinent that Nissan review boot loader settings on these vehicles for a known fatal flaw that leaves the user vulnerable to these types of attacks, this could have caused me to crash several times and is downright scary that anyone with a little background could penetrate these systems so easily.

STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
Unknown, this is what I remember, As I was traveling on this highway I pushed the lane correcting button on because it was raining and I don't like being out in the rain. I had put on my Cruse control and after about halfway to the exit I turned the Cruse control off so that the vehicle could slow down and I could cost to the exit however out of nowhere my steering wheel starts pulling to the left so I tried to turn it back to align with the back of my truck and the steering wheel was stuck it would not move so, I braced myself for impact. I am still scared. No one will help me and the vehicle is available for request if need be. I really could have been killed and someone else too if they had been near me at the time of the accident. The guard rails saved me from going into the opposite side of traffic on the highway. Because of what I was doing no one will help me. So I don't know what to do now. There were no warning signs before the accident however I did have an oil change and my tires rotated 3 weeks before my accident. Everything happened on the day of my accident. No 1 will look at it. My insurance will not cover me so they will not help and the people I was driving for are basically not responsible and now I am out of my vehicle and I need it inspected but no 1 will help me.
