ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
My rear hatch door will not open manually or automatically due to torrential downpour that leaked into the rear hatch door while fully closed and locked. That rain water made its way into the electrical component causing the door to no longer operate or even open. The dealership is aware of the issue with several other vehicles of the same year make and model and have not put a recall out to fix the issue. So here I am, reporting the issue to you now in hopes to get a recall put out there so myself and other 2017 Nissan rogue owners can have the issue resolved. For the record, we have my car serviced every 5,000 miles so there were plenty of opportunities for the dealership to make us aware that there was the 1st issue on this car back in 2021, but they did not tell us or even ask if they could fix a known issue.

I believe the issue is with the transmission by online research. I have had the issue multiple times. The vehicle sometimes hesitates to go when pressing on the gas pedal after being stopped at stop lights. This is a problem mostly when it is very hot outside. I have had multiple close calls when trying to take a right at red lights. I will have plenty of time before another car is coming but I try to go and the car hesitates or barely moves before it actually goes almost causing accidents. I have not been able to get the car to the dealer to try and reproduce the issue and I feel it would be hard to reproduce unless the car was driven for a bit in the heat. There are no codes or warning lights populating.

When car is at a stop I need to press the accelerator all the way down for the car to go. It goes very slow (almost slipping) and feels very dangerous (risk of being rear ended). This started 2/3 weeks ago. My mechanic replaced the transmission fluid after finding metal particles in it. Also mentioned over a quart of transmission fluid was missing. They advised me to get a whole new transmission. I contacted Nissan consumer affair since there is a class action law suit for my Nissan Rogue. Mileage as of today it 84,400 miles. Car is being inspected as we speak. They did not find any code and it passed everything so I have to pay $730 for further inspection.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Automatic emergency braking is malfunctioning. It is available for inspection upon request. The car stops by itself while driving in traffic, putting myself and other drivers at risk. I have brought the vehicle to the dealership twice and they deny the problem. There is no warning leading up to the issue. It is a reoccurring random problem that happens while driving in stop-and-go traffic. When it occurs, the vehicle is paralyzed and I need to shut off the car and restart the car in the middle of traffic. The vehicle started malfunctioning like this approximately 3 years ago and it has become more frequent. It now occurs every time I commute in slow traffic. It is dangerous and there are reports online of many other drivers experiencing the same problem and local news reports.

This car only have mileages of 62014 and is maintained regularly on time. There is no any accident with this car. I drove this car in the past 3 months and have no any issue. However, when I reversed the car from my garage smoothly in the morning on July 15, 2025, the car couldn't move forward with Malfunction Indicator Light on. The diagnostic codes P0776 and P0965: Nissan CVT solenoid failure. The Nissan extended warranty is 84 months/84000 miles. The car was not drove too many in the past 3 years. So, the car is not eligible for the extended warranty by time (8 years instead of 7 years) but do be eligible by mileage (only 62014 miles) . The Nissan policy is to determine the eligibility by which criteria (time/mileage) come first. The CVT problem is really common to the Nissan Rogue. The Nissan should extend the warranty coverage on the mileages (84000 miles). Hope the Nissan could improve the quality on CVT and extend its warranty to 84000 miles only.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I purchased a 2017 Nissan Rogue used from a Nissan dealership with 58,617 miles. At around 99,000 miles, the vehicle began experiencing dangerous hesitation and shuddering. A certified Nissan dealer diagnosed a failure of the CVT transmission, specifically citing Code P17F2 (Judder Condition). I was quoted over $6,000 for the repair. This issue matches known Nissan CVT defects that have been subject to multiple lawsuits and technical service bulletins, but my VIN was not included in prior coverage extensions. Nissan denied my request for Goodwill Repair Assistance despite having documentation from their own dealer. This failure poses a safety concern and appears to be the result of a widespread manufacturer defect that has not yet been formally recalled for all affected VINs. I am submitting this to request investigation and accountability.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While my wife was driving down the road she turned on the radio at which time the radio volume went instantly to maximum full volume at it's lowest setting which was enhanced by a stock bose amplifier. My wife stated that she was extremely startled which could have caused an accident, she further suffered hearing loss as a result. This is extremely dangerous for all drivers of such a malfuntion as some by such shock could cause fatalities and or serious injury. The manufacturer at Grand Strand Nissan on route 501 in Conway SC, stated it was the Bose amp malfuntion which I swaped out with another Bose amp and the problem still exist. This is very serious.

My car engine randomly shut down while in drive and would not drive on two occasions. Nissan cannot find any evidence that anything is wrong with my car. They refuse to assist despite this being a known issue. They told me I should pay to take it to another Nissan dealership to pay for another diagnostic test.

My 2017 Nissan Rogue's CVT Transmission failed THREE TIMES in 36,321 miles. On 11/22/21 Walser Nissan replaced the transmission. Odometer read 62,735 miles, so at the time Nissan claimed the warrantee had expired (60,000 miles) so after fighting the situation, they agreed that their ‘Goodwill Program’ would waive the cost of the replacement. Then, in less than 2 months later, the CVT failed AGAIN. On 1/14/22 Walser Nissan replaced the transmission. The odometer read 64,378 miles & even though they again claimed the warrantee had expired, their ‘goodwill program’ would waive the cost of the replacement. Now the CVT failed AGAIN. On [XXX] the CVT transmission failed a THIRD time, only 36,321 miles since the last system failure, Nissan is saying they will only cover the cost of the parts but refuse to pay for the labor costs for the replacement. Text message from Walser Nissan on 5/13/25 at 2:27pm: "Andrew from Nissan here. I wanted to let you know that the tech found the transmission failed & needs to be replaced. The transmission is out of warranty for replacement and was submitted for goodwill. Nissan approved covering the cost of the parts for the repair. You would be responsible for the labor cost and rental charge. The labor is $2298.38 plus whatever the rental is at $50.00 per day, so that is what you would owe to get the Rogue fixed." Reference lawsuit [XXX] v. Nissan North America, Inc. in the US Dist court for middle dist of Tennessee Nashville Div Case # [XXX] CLASS ACTION On [XXX]-The transmission starts slipping & RPM meter fluctuates while driving. At 7:06am on 5/8/25 I set an appointment with Walser Nissan. Then by [XXX] on [XXX] the car died while driving & dash message read 'SYSTEM MALFUNCTION'. I called Nissan & they would not pay for tow services or provide a loaner vehicle, so I brought the vehicle to Honest-1 Auto where diagnostics confirmed 'CVT Transmission Failure'. My car was brought to Nissan 5/12 & still remains there. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT

Paint on the hood peeling significantly. No signs of chips or scratches near the peeling site. Paint is expected to last 10 to 15 years under normal driving conditions and mine has lasted only 7. Color is white. There is a current class action suit against nissan for paint issues, and I want my voice heard too.

The passenger side air bag shows as off when someone is sitting in the seat. This was a recall issue on other model Rogues and this is a serious safety hazard. Nissan should be making this a recall for other model years!
