SERVICE BRAKES
This is a rental vehicle- I had several incidents when I could not stop the vehicle. Above the brake is a structural bar about 1/2" in diameter. I wear a size 13 shoe. At several red lights I tried to apply the brake but the car would not stop. (I did stop before hitting anyone) Upon investigation I discovered that my toe was pressing on the bar, not on the brake. Only when my shoe's heel was on the floor was I able to clear the bar and step on the brake. I normally keep my foot somewhat higher than the floor when braking my own car, so this was a dangerous surprise to me.

ENGINE
On 11/29/25, my 2023 Nissan Rogue suffered a sudden and complete engine failure while driving at Hwy speed (70mph). The vehicle lost propulsion unexpectedly, which created a significant safety risk. The engine now will not start and the dealership has confirmed the turbo failed forcing coolant into the engine and now it requires a full engine replacement. Prior to the failure, I had received recall information where it states that early warning signs include engine malfunction light. This came one twice, but went off right away. I called to schedule my oil change and asked that I have the recall reviewed, explicitly stating that the symptom was consistent with the known VC-Turbo Engine recall. I was told on the phone that there is no current remedy for the recall and nothing would be scheduled for that at that time. My oil change and tire rotation appointment was 11/18/25. I picked up my car on 11/24/25 upon returning from travel. Five days later the engine failed catastrophically without additional warning. The dealer diagnosed the failure as a turbocharger failure that forced coolant into the engine resulting in catastrophic internal damage. The engine is now inoperable and requires replacement. When I inquired about recall coverage, the dealer stated that they did not observe visible bearing damage and therefore concluded that the active recall does not apply and the current recall protocol can only be applied if the vehicle can run post-update, and since my in inoperable, the protocol could not be completed. The extended warranty will cover the turbo but not the full engine because they cannot identify the full extent of damage without full engine teardown at my expense. The failure mode (engine malfunction light, turbo failure, coolant intrusion, sudden engine shutdown) aligns with the failure pattern on the Nissan engine recall. The absence of visible bearing damage on post-failure inspection does not rule out defect, and the denial is unjust.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The rear window exploded out of no where on my 2023 Nissan Rogue. It was parked, I was outside when this happened. No vehicles or other people around, window just exploded. Glass and weatherstripping were blown across the parking lot. Nissan consumer affairs state they will do an investigation and they may or may not help. Once this happened I see many other Nissan owners experience this same thing! Extended warranty will not cover this... As I sit here 3 days before Christmas, travel plans ruined, and the uncertainty of a thousand dollar fix hanging over my head. This is definitely a manufacturing defect, and this should be covered at no cost! A recall also needs to be issued! I'm just grateful I was not driving down the road when this happened, as I see other Nissan owners had this happen to them.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that after exiting the vehicle and walking away with the keys, the doors of the vehicle automatically locked as designed; however, the rear doors of the vehicle failed to unlock, preventing the contact's sister, who was occupying the rear seat, from exiting the vehicle. Additionally, the contact stated that upon returning to the vehicle, the contact became aware of the issue, and the contact also noticed that the front driver's side door failed to unlock as intended. The contact stated that the failure required the contact to enter the vehicle through the front passenger's side door to get the groceries out of the way for her sister to exit the vehicle through the front passenger's side door. The contact had briefly lost the keys and was able to unlock the doors after finding the keys. The contact stated that the rear doors' failure to unlock did not occur due to the child-lock system. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle failed to start on another occasion. A mobile technician from a service contractor was able to jumpstart the vehicle. The technician also recommended that the battery be replaced. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

I am submitting a complaint regarding my 2 year-old vehicle due to a recurring/mechanical issue that is impacting its safety and reliability. While I understand the vehicle’s age, this problem appears to be beyond normal wear and tear and warrants review. In addition the condition has resulted in ongoing problems that I believe require further evaluation and resolution.

My engine has a recall. When i would start my car the engine would stop half way in son I went to the repair shop twice. One time they tell me, there's an active recall.The next time they tell me there isn't. Its a back and forth and then they tell me they are not going to replace it until nissan tells them its okay. They told me to file a claim with nissan which I did as per their instructions and the representative has be giving me no information for 2 weeks. Stating she will "keep trying and call me back" now they are telling me the engine doesnt need to be replaced but since October they were saying it does.

I was driving down the road when I heard a loud popping noise. When I got out to check I noticed my sunroof/moonroof was shattered. When traveling down the road there were no cars in front of me, no construction sites, and no over passes. The incident happened randomly. There were no problems with the sunroof prior to this. There was no impact.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Ever since I purchased my 2023 Nissan Rogue in December 2023, on long treks, the Intelligent Cruise Control will just randomly shut off while driving down the interstate going 70+ mph on a clear day with no bad weather while other cars are around. Meaning, the car will suddenly slow down without braking in traffic and say that the forward driving aids are disabled, potentially causing an accident. In March 2025 I finally decided I'd had enough of this unsafe situation and asked the dealership to fix it, and they tried but failed. I asked again recently in November, and the dealership tried but failed to resolve the issue, and it persists. I can drive the vehicle but need to avoid using all of the safety features I have paid for in my expensive vehicle or risk my life to use them.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
While driving 40-50 mph, my vehicle abruptly dropped to a speed of below 20 mph without warning, scaring me to the point of nearly driving off the side of the road, almost getting rear-ended, and catapulting me forcefully toward my windshield. Simultaneously, this warning light and exact message appeared with a very loud alarm/chime - ⚠️ Warning Engine Malfunction Power reduced Service Engine Now The initial occurrence happened on 07/03/2024 with my vehicle having only 10,208 miles. The same issue has occurred several times since. My vehicle has been inspected by the dealership/manufacturer where they have been unable to reproduce or replicate the problem. I have reported this to Nissan Consumer Affairs as well. The current recall on my vehicle that was announced in July 2025 associated with an engine bearing recall and its safety warnings correlate very closely with what I have experienced. This vehicle is unpredictable and unsafe to drive due to being no warning of the vehicle speed possibly dropping from a 70 mph highway speed down to 20 mph in a split second without warning. This is not only a danger to me and my passengers, but to the other potential vehicles and pedestrians around my vehicle. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
