The check engine light came in my car. Thinking it was something simple, because it only has 28k miles. I took it to a non Nissan mechanic for diagnostics. After finding out it wasn’t simple, I called Nissan warranty. They told me I had to take it to their mechanic for diagnostics. So I’m doubly diagnosed with a failing transmission that needs to be replaced. Nissan warranty has offered to pay 70% of repairs. Two weeks ago I asked for an estimate, and a trade in price for my car. They still haven’t returned my call. This is so frustrated because I paid cash for my car, and now all I want to do is dump it.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Both Headlights on low beam do not light up road infront of you although they used to no problem, the regular headlights are so dim it is almost impossible to see without having high beams on. However driving with high beams puts headlights directly in the eyes of oncoming traffic.. improper lighting is dangerous! When driving at night, I must use highbeams or you can not see far enough ahead to confirm nobody walking on side of road and road ahead is clear. This started occurring at approx.. 40,000 miles, my last rogue never had this issue. I have not taken to dealership yet but need to now that I see some of the complaints and our issue is not a bulb.there has been no warnings or messages for this issue to repair ourselves we are unable to do so because it's not a blub it's the direction of the low beam lights have changed we do not know what has caused this we just started noticing we were unable to drive at night securely and did not have $ to take to dealership. Yes my car can be inspected if you are able to do so. I will be taking to mechanic asap I will upload report. This is an ongoing safety issue

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while his son was driving the vehicle at slow speeds, the vehicle hesitated upon depression of the accelerator pedal with the check engine warning light illuminated. His son then took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where he was informed that there was an issue with the transmission; he was then referred to the dealer for assistance. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer where they informed him that his vehicle was not covered under the recall. The contact then called Round Rock Nissan (3050 N Interstate Hwy 35, Round Rock, TX 78681) where he was instructed to bring the vehicle in for an inspection. The manufacturer was notified but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 58,000.

LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
The BSW worked however the engineering of this particular BSW on this model is such that I feel it did not provide the queues in such a manner as to gain immediate visual/audible attention. The BSW is positioned inside the vehicle to the left and right near the sideview mirrors but obscured enough in one's vision that it does not gain ready attention. The audible portion is not adjustable in volume and when on a busy interstate with navigation guiding you it is very difficult to hear. I was in blind spot collision accident on 10/4/2021 in VA on 395S at 3:30pm EST. I looked, looked again and did not see the vehicle in my blind spot and I genuinely feel that the BSW in this vehicle is not sufficient to alert a driver in those conditions in a manner that garners the drivers immediate attention. Having been placed in rental vehicle that has the BSW warning embedded in the sideview mirror itself I find that to be a much more immediate attention grabber than Nissan's BSW construct in my vehicle such that I have purchased aftermarket BSW mirrors to place on my sideview mirrors to prevent /assist with this issue.

Oct 9, 2021 had issues including loss of power, transmission jerking, transmission slipping while driving. Just returned from dealer for service on my 2015 Nissan Rogue with 55k miles saying it needs a new CVT and it's not covered under warranty. First occurred on Oct 9, the dealer applied the reprogram on Oct 12, but issue came back that night. Took it back today and the new code is the P0744 shudder saying replace CVT. CVT issue causes hazardous driving conditions as the vehicle jerks, loses power, then quickly accelerates, then lunges, etc.

STRUCTURE:BODY
I was driving on highway at approximately 60 mph, when the hood opened spontaneously obstructing my view, and greatly increasing my likelihood of a catastrophic crash. I was able to see under raised hood, due to a built-in gap, and safely exit highway. When closing, damage sustained to body surrounding hood. There were no audio or visual arms that such an event would occur, nor that the hood may have been open. No police report was filed at the time, and a mechanic is evaluating now. (I was the driver, but am not the owner of the vehicle. Owner is dealing with mechanics at this time.)

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at a low rate of speed, the vehicle began to jerk as the check engine light illuminated the instrument panel.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue with 84,000 miles and my CVT makes a howling noise when I start up the car. After warming up the car, the howling noise continues onto the local city streets and into the highway, and after a few minutes of driving, the screeching sounds go away. A few weeks later, I brought the car into a local mechanic for an oil change and the mechanic determined that the transmission needs to be replaced. I have maintained the car in optimal care by ensuring maintenance and general repairs are done bi-annually. After discussing this matter with Nissan Corporate, they determined my car warranty has expired and they cannot extend other Nissan Rogue extended warranty for my car. However, the 2003-2010 Nissan vehicles equipped with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) have a 10-year/120,000-mile (whichever comes first) CVT limited warranty extension, according to the Nissan Corporate warranty page. The cost to fix the car is approximately $5,500. The replacement of the transmission and additional normal wear and tear repairs (back rotors and pads) will cost more than the value of the car. Due to the faulty CVT design based on historic reporting on this model, I am very disappointed to learn that the quality and integrity of the transmission for having a car at such a low mileage. I had been lucky to bring the car into a local mechanic just in time before it stopped working. Had the car stopped on the highway, I would have caused a major traffic accident due to the poor quality design of the transmission.

While driving at low speed in Mountains, transmission over heated and went into failsafe mode which prohibited shifting. In steep Mountain roads inability to downshift causes excessive use of brakes and could result in dangerous speeds.

The CVT transmission shuts off for no reason. The engine revs up like crazy but the power convertor does not do its job of transmitting power to the driveshaft. Turns out that the CVT transmission went into shutdown mode for no reason - I was driving downhill, in an empty car, with no load at 65 mph.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
My 2016 Rogue is now needing its 4th passenger side headlight replaced in 5 years. Each time it is due to a broken seal around the headlight, which allowed water to come in and short circuit the headlight & making the non-bright function null. Brights still work. After taking it to 2 separate local Nissan dealerships, they both concluded it was indeed a faulty headlight / design and both indicated it would be $1600 to replace with a new one. After relaying this info to Nissan Corporate, they said they wouldn't help with their "Goodwill Program" since they'd already done so the last time the headlight was replaced and because of the age of the vehicle. However, as I mentioned to the Nissan rep, the issue has never truly been FIXED (ie: the seal area around the headlight to prevent moisture shorting out the light) since the previous headlights have all given out in the exact way. My perception is this is just a poorly designed vehicle that Nissan was willing to flood into the market but was never intended to last more than 5-6 years, nor was Nissan willing to stand behind and admit their design mistakes. By the way, I have a 2015 Armada with more miles than my Rogue and those headlights are still as bright as ever.

Starting 9/1/21 there was a delayed and jerking reaction when the gas pedal was pressed from a full stop. This was very dangerous when trying to cross intersections during city driving, as the car behind could not anticipate that our car wouldn’t go and our car was not able to cross intersections at normal speed, putting us in the way of other traffic trying to cross. During highway driving the RPMs began to run very high without an associated change in speed, causing the driver to be alarmed. An inspection by our local independent mechanic determined the transmission needs replacement. This diagnosis was then confirmed by our local Nissan dealer. The car is currently available for inspection at the Nissan dealer. There was a check engine or service now light that went on when the car would first turn on, but it would go off when the car was being driven.
