Problem: CVT transmission failure with code P187E at 73500 miles. Nissan dealer confirmed clean fluid but quoted $9800 for transmission replacement. Vehicle still drives but repeatedly enters failsafe/limp mode, limiting speed and acceleration without warning. This occurred multiple times on the highway, creating a serious safety hazard due to sudden loss of power in trafic. This is a know issue with hundreds of similar complaints filed for 2022 Rogue 1.5 CVT models. The failure pattern is consistent: code P187E, failsafe mode activation, and dealer recommending full CVT replacement even with proper maintenance. Safety concern: Sudden loss of power while driving on highway. Vehicle speed drops unexpectedly from 65+ mph to under 40 mph when failsafe mode engages. This creates high risk of rear-end collision, especially durng merging or in heavy traffic. My family and other drivers are at risk.

While driving under normal highway conditions, my 2023 Nissan Rogue AWD experienced a sudden and severe safety malfunction. All warning and safety indicator lights on the dashboard illuminated simultaneously, followed by a complete shutdown of the digital instrument cluster. The vehicle lost critical display functions at the moment the issue occurred. Shortly afterward, the check engine light remained on. The dealership later diagnosed the vehicle with DTC P0196 – Engine Oil Temperature Sensor and recommended replacement of the Automatic Transmission Oil Cooler Control Valve.

The rear hatch window in my 2025 nissan rogue rock creek with 13,500 miles spontaneously exploded out while parked. This could have caused significant injury and or damage to another person or vehicle. The entire rear window shattered. The glass could have cut someone if the vehicle was occupied when it happened. I've had to file a insurance claim which has cost me my deductible. The dealership acted like they had no clue about this being an issue and has not helped in any way to repair or offer options. So now it comes out of my pocket.

"I am reporting federal safety recall non-compliance and fraudulent remedy execution by an authorized manufacturer franchise, Bella Nissan of Union City ([XXX]), regarding NHTSA Campaign 26V-080 (Nissan Recall Code R25E2) on my 2023 Nissan Rogue SL FWD.I am the original owner of this vehicle, which has an exceptionally low odometer reading of 12,142 miles. The vehicle is used as primary medical transport for my [XXX] special needs son, who has a severe traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, and partial paralysis.On July 1st, 2026, I brought the vehicle to the dealership explicitly to resolve the critical engine bearing seizure and fire-risk recall. The dealership quoted a 3-hour repair window. Instead, the dealer rushed the vehicle through in 43 minutes total (Start: 12:52, End: 13:35) and recorded an impossible 1-mile odometer difference (Mileage In: 12,142, Mileage Out: 12,143). A single-mile drive is physically incapable of heating the engine oil to the high operating temperatures required by Nissan’s official engineering service bulletin to diagnose defective engine bearings.The dealership falsely certified to federal databases that this fire-risk vehicle was legally remedied, cleared the active safety flag on my consumer app, and billed the manufacturer's warranty department for work never performed. They also billed for a multi-point inspection and complimentary detail that were completely falsified, returning the car with an untouched, dirty windshield. The service advisor then actively withheld the paperwork I physically initialed at pickup, forcing me to take an internal 'Pre-Invoice Audit Copy' to conceal the non-compliant metrics.By rubber-stamping this safety recall on paper without executing the mandatory high-temperature diagnostic drive loop, this dealership has left an unverified fire-risk asset on the road, actively endangering a medically fragile family. I am refusing any future repair loops i want a buyback INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I am reporting a strong gasoline odor inside my 2021 Nissan Rogue. The smell is noticeable both while driving and after the vehicle has been parked, and it is strong enough to enter the passenger cabin. This condition raises serious safety concerns because the odor may indicate a fuel system leak or another defect that could increase the risk of fire or expose occupants to harmful gasoline fumes. The smell is persistent and has not gone away. I believe this issue presents a significant safety hazard to myself, my passengers, and others on the road. I request that the NHTSA investigate this issue to determine whether it is a widespread defect affecting 2021 Nissan Rogue vehicles and whether a safety recall or other corrective action is warranted. Vehicle Information: * Year: 2021 * Make: Nissan * Model: Rogue I am submitting this complaint because I am concerned about the potential risk of fuel leakage, fire, and exposure to gasoline vapors while operating the vehicle.

ENGINE
My 2024 Nissan Rogue 1.5L VC-Turbo FWD experienced a serious engine/powertrain failure while driving. The vehicle showed warning messages/lights, including an oil-related warning, began shaking badly, made a loud knocking noise, lost power, and shut off in the street. The vehicle is no longer safely drivable. A Nissan dealer inspected the vehicle and documented that the engine is “knocking internally” and recommended replacement of the engine assembly and turbo, with possible catalyst replacement. The dealer also recommended CVT valve body and O-ring replacement. The scan showed engine-related codes including P219A, P0506, P0303, and P0017, and transmission-related codes including P0746 and P187E. This failure put my safety and others at risk because the vehicle lost power/shut off while in the roadway and could not be safely driven. The vehicle/component is available for inspection upon request. I am concerned this may be related to the known Nissan Rogue 1.5L VC-Turbo engine failure/oil-temperature/bearing issue, but I was told my VIN is not currently included in the engine recall and that no oil-temperature recall code came up. I am filing this complaint because the vehicle had internal engine knock, loss of power, warning lights/messages, and dealer-confirmed engine failure similar to the condition described in the recall. I request NHTSA review whether vehicles outside the current recall VIN population may also be affected.

All of a sudden, while driving, the car was not picking up speed. I parked and noticed the car was idling very roughly. It was though the car was going to just stop when I did start driving again. The check engine light came on while I was driving in the car would not pick up speed. It was still really a rough idle to the car when I turned corners it was like the car was going to stop and it would not go past 35 mph. I immediately drove into the Nissan dealership near me. A week later after dropping it off, I was told the engine had failed.

The contact owned a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that six months after purchasing the vehicle, the vehicle was vibrating abnormally while driving, accelerating, and the vehicle was hesitating. During an oil change, the contact informed the mechanic about the excessive vibration while driving. The contact was notified of an undisclosed recall, but there was no remedy for the recall. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer, but the mechanics were unable to duplicate the failure. During another failure, the vehicle turned off independently while stopped at a red light. The vehicle restarted after three attempts. The vehicle was driven slowly back to the residence. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer a second time, and an undisclosed pump was replaced. The contact stated that months later, the failure reoccurred, and the vehicle could not be restarted. The check engine warning light was illuminated, and the vehicle started smoking while it was stuck on the roadway. While the vehicle was completely stopped and disabled in the roadway, another vehicle rear-ended it. The air bags did not deploy. A Police report was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not deemed a total loss. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 41,000.

Check Engine light code P2482 EGT Sensor 5 Bank 1. Harness was shredded by the metal brackets that hold the wire in place running from the EGT probe to the plug. The metal brackets allow the wire to rub against it shredding the insulation and causing the wires inside to be destroyed. This has happened twice on the above vehicle. March 2026 and June 2026.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, POWER TRAIN
My 2018 Nissan Rogue CVT transmission has failed to accelerate on two separate occasions while driving. The vehicle would not respond when I pressed the gas pedal. The car was still running but would not accelerate. The issue resolved on its own both times. I currently have approximately 69,000 miles on the vehicle. I am concerned the transmission will fail completely.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
This winter a crack in the seal opened up on the driver's side wheel well. We were not aware of the crack. We noticed that the car was collecting water in the carpets down on the floor board. The water became increasingly worse over time down on the floor of the car. We tried looking for leaks and drying out the car with towels. We could not find the leaks. We tried to dry the car out as much as possible, yet, every time my soon drove the car to school at Everett Washington Community College the water became increasingly worse down on the floor of the car. So, my son stopped driving the car for a couple of months. So, I bought the car from my son. He got a different car. I tried to start the car last Sunday at 3pm in the afternoon. Flames started down on the carpet directly below the pedals. Black, dark smoke billowed out from below the steering column. I ran into my kitchen to put out the flames. The battery is damaged too. The battery is leaking acid out of the side and bulging on one side. I took it to the dealership. To see if it could be repaired.
