ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
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

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The fuel/engine vapor ventilation system in the driver-side engine bay is leaking raw fuel fumes into the fresh air intake. Yes, the vehicle and all components are available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Inhaling continuous raw gasoline fumes while driving and idling causes physical distress, including severe headaches, burning eyes, and dizziness, creating a driving hazard. The unaddressed raw fuel leak under the hood also poses an elevated fire safety risk. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?Pinnacle Nissan previously confirmed a fuel leak and replaced the fuel tank and lock ring assembly. ABC Nissan inspected the vehicle for over a week, confirmed testing was conducted, but reported they were unable to pinpoint the engine bay leak source. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Inspected by Pinnacle Nissan and ABC Nissan service departments under active Nissan Consumer Affairs Case #56847990. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lamps or dashboard messages appeared. The symptom is a persistent raw gasoline smell coming through the front dashboard HVAC vents while driving and idling, which began prior to any repairs and continues to persist on this Certified Pre-Owned vehicle.

POWER TRAIN
I acquired a 2015 Nissan Rogue, but it seems the transmission has failed. Interestingly, the transmission is identified as a 2014 model within the 2015 vehicle. I reached out to the dealership for clarification on whether the transmission had been replaced, but I received no assistance. Discussions in a Nissan forum reveal that this issue is common among Nissan vehicles, yet there is no official recall. Numerous owners have expressed concerns regarding the transmission's reliability. Given that my vehicle has only 82,000 miles, it is unexpected for the transmission to malfunction at this stage.

ENGINE
My 2026 Nissan Rogue SV engine suffered catastrophic engine failure of no. 3 cylinder. Resulted in total loss of engine coolant, damage to the engine block, no. 3 cylinder and related parts, and additional damage to catalytic converter and turbocharger. Nissan replaced the entire engine block (long block), associated turbo, cat. converter, and one-time necessary connections. My only indications were ‘engine overheat’, ‘malfunctions’, and the car not able to change cvt gears, eventually turning off just as I was coming up to speed on the on-ramp to freeway. There were no previous or repeated warnings prior to event. Car was towed to Future Nissan of Roseville, which performed all inspections and repairs.

I was driving down the road alte at night on a completely empty road. All of a sudden I heard what sounded like a gun shot hitting glass. I looked in my rearview mirror and noticed my rear windshield was completely shattered. There was no rhyme or reason for it to happen. Just out of nowhere.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
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!!

VISIBILITY/WIPER
My friend went to start my car and she heard a large boom and looked back, and my back windshield had shattered and glass on the ground and inside the car. If I had been opening or closing the trunk it would have severely injured us. Also, there was nothing that had hit it, it was sunny and in the 80 outside. I had to go to Safelight and get a covering for it, while i wait on a replacement. I contacted Nissan and they said that warranty does not cover glass and that maybe something was already wrong with it. My windshield was perfectly intact until it shattered and blew out everywhere.

I am submitting a complaint regarding a serious water intrusion issue with my 2023 Nissan Rogue. My vehicle developed a severe water leak that allowed water to enter both sides of the vehicle. The amount of water intrusion is significant and has caused concern about possible hidden damage, including mold growth, mildew, and damage to electrical components. I brought my vehicle to Hallmark Nissan in Birmingham, Alabama for evaluation. The dealership informed me that this is a known issue and that Nissan has a Technical Service Bulletin, NTB21-097B, addressing water leaks at the top front corners of the windshield on certain 2021–2023 Nissan Rogue vehicles. My vehicle was only two days outside of the warranty period when I brought it in for this problem. Even though Nissan has identified this issue through a Technical Service Bulletin, I was advised that I would be responsible for approximately $684 in repair costs. I believe this is unacceptable for a relatively new vehicle with a known defect. A vehicle should not allow water to leak into the passenger compartment due to a known issue shortly after the warranty expires. This water intrusion creates potential safety concerns, including: Mold and mildew growth that could affect occupants’ health. Corrosion or failure of electrical wiring, connectors, sensors, and other vehicle systems. Potential malfunction of safety-related components due to water damage. Additional costly damage that may not become apparent until later. The existence of Technical Service Bulletin NTB21-097B demonstrates that Nissan is aware of this condition, yet customers are still being required to pay for repairs. I believe this issue should be investigated as a potential safety defect rather than treated as a normal repair expense. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this water intrusion issue affecting Nissan Rogue vehicles and determine whether Nissan should provide a safety remedy or recall for affected owners.

ENGINE
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”

So by just looking up current Nissan recalls I was quite confused on how there is 2 open recalls on my particular model, but my car is supposedly not impacted even though I'm having issue and it appears to me that its issues are in fact related to the open recalls. The AWD malfunction light comes on and the car doesn't want to accelerate.
