ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS, MY GAS GAUGE HAS BEEN READING INCORRECTLY AND WHEN I WOULD GO TO FILL OUT THE VEHICLE, IT WOULD NEVER SHOW COMPLETELY FULL. IN SOME CASES, I WOULD TURN ON THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULD READ SUFFICIENTLY LESS THAN WHAT WAS IN THE TANK AND THEN CLIMB BACK UP TO WHAT I ASSUME WAS THE CORRECT LEVEL. MY LAST FILL UP, THE GAUGE READ 3 BARS LEFT OF FUEL AND I PUMPED 14.5 GALLONS OF GAS AT THE STATION WHICH IS EXACTLY MY GAS TANK SIZE. I THEN LOOKED ONLINE AND DISCOVERED SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR AND OTHER MODELS WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT NO GOOD FIXES APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN FOUND. *TR

SEATS
THIS COMPLAINT PERTAINS 2015 NISSAN ROGUE SV TRIM WITH THIRD-ROW SEAT. AFTER USING IT FOR A FEW MONTHS, I HAVE FOUND THAT THE DESIGN OF THE ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM OF THIRD ROW SEAT IS SUCH THAT IT CAN CAUSE/AGGRAVATE BACK PAIN RESULTING FROM A REGULAR USE OF THE STRAP PULL/PUSH PROVIDED. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS ISSUE FOR PEOPLE WITH HISTORY OF OR THOSE PRONE TO BACK PAIN. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE NOTICE OF NISSAN BUT SO FAR THEY HAVE REFUSED TO GET IT OBJECTIVELY ASSESSED. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE, STEERING
CAR TRANSMISSION MAKES WHINING SOUND. AS YOU DRIVE UP AN INCLINE IT GETS WORSE. CAR SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. YOU ARE FORCED TO PULL OVER AS YOU HAVE NO POWER. AFTER 5 -10 MINUTES THE CAR WILL START UP AGAIN. CAR WAS BROUGHT TO NISSAN AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THEY INSTALLED AN EXTERNAL OIL COOLER AS THEIR CVT TRANSMISSION HAS ISSUES WITH OVERHEATING. THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN AND APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BY NISSAN. NISSAN CHARGED $1000 TO FIX THE ISSUE WHICH SHOULD BE A RECALLED SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CAR. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND SITUATIONS WHERE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER ROGUE OWNERS. *JS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN
WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WA TO CA I NOTICED WHILE DRIVING UP THE GREAT VINE MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE STARTED TO DECELERATE FROM 70 MPH TO 45-55 MPH, I HAD MY FOOT PRESSED PEDAL TO THE METAL WITH NO ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE JUST MADE IT BUT WHILE AT ANOTHER SLIGHT HILL MY VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING HOWEVER THIS TIME IT REDUCED TO SPEED THAT POSED A SAFETY CONCERN WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. THE SPEED DROPPED FROM 70 TO ABOUT 30 IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. MY INFANT SON AND WIFE WERE IN THE VEHICLE AS IT STARTED TO SHUT DOWN I MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE HIGHWAY BUT NOT BEFORE WE HAD BIG RIGS AND OTHER VEHICLES SLOW DOWN OR CHANGE LANES TO AVOID A COLLISION. MY VEHICLE WOULD NO LONGER MOVE NOR WOULD FOR I HAD ZERO ACCELERATION CAPABILITIES. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR IT POSES A SAFETY CONCERN THAT MAY CAUSE A SERIOUS INJURY, LAWSUIT AND EVEN DEATH TO AN OPERATOR, PASSENGER AND OR OTHERS. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY THE POWER STEERING WOULD MAKE A NOISE AND MOMENTARILY CATCH.

I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW ELECTRONIC COLUMN ASSEMBLY. I HAD IT TOED TO THE NISSAN DEALER. *TR

UNDER THE COLD WEATHER, BOTH OF THE FRONT DOORS COULDN'T OPEN FROM OUTSIDE SINCE THE LINKAGE OF THE DOOR LOCK FROZEN AND THE CABLE WAS DETACHED. THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED UNDER A RECALL, HOWEVER, IT IS NOW HAPPENING AGAIN IN DEC 2014. IT IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU HAVE TO OPEN DOORS FROM THE BACK TO GET ACCESS. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE CAR REVS UP TO 5 RPMS AT 60MPH LIKE ITS STUCK IN NEUTRAL. NEED TO TAKE THE FOOT OFF THE GAS GET DOWN TO 50MPH AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK UP TO 65MPH. I DID THIS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I WAS AFRAID THE PERSON BEHIND WAS GOING TO HIT TO CHANGE SPEEDS SO FAST. NISSAN LOOKED AT THE CAR TODAY AND SAID THERE WASN'T AN ISSUE AND I NEEDED TO DO THAT TO LET THE TRANSMISSION CATCH UP. NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING. MY LAST NISSAN AT 98K DIED BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. BEFORE IT DIED IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING. *TR

VISIBILITY
THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED BEFORE HOWEVER THIS TIME IT CAUSED A DICEY SITUATION. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE FRONT WINDSHIELD SUN VISOR SUDDENLY DROPPED FROM THE FORWARD UP POSITION (AGAINST THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WHERE IT WAS BLOCKING THE SUN) DOWN TO A VERTICAL POSITION WHERE IT SEVERELY BLOCKED THE FRONT VISIBILITY. IT WILL NOT RELIABLY STAY IN THE UP OR SUN BLOCKING POSITION; IT WILL STAY IN THE STORED OR BACK POSITION VERY SECURELY. THE TECHNICIAN AT HANLEES NISSAN SAID THE SITUATION WAS "NORMAL" AND THERE WAS NO AUTHORIZED MODIFICATION. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE UNEXPECTED LOSS OF SIGHT OF THE ROAD. *JS

AIR BAGS
THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND THE AIRBAG SHUTS OFF WHILE A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENED AT 50,000 MILES AND NISSAN REPLACED THE SEAT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT 79,000 AND NISSAN WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP TURNED OFF THE BLINKING LIGHT BUT AGAIN WHEN A PERSON SAT IN THE SEAT THE AIRBAG TURNED OFF AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE IF THE AIRBAG IS WORKING. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY (100,000 MILES) BUT THEY STILL REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT NISSAN HAS RECALLED OLDER AND NEWER MODELS OF THE ROGUE. I DID RESEARCH ON-LINE AND THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH ROGUES AND OTHER NISSAN VEHICLE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM FOR THE SAFETY OF PASSENGERS BECAUSE FOR NO REASON THE AIRBAG MALFUNCTIONS DURING USE AND WHERE IT IS SAFE TO PULL OVER. I CALLED THE NISSAN COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT AND THEY TOLD ME I SHOULD BE HAPPY BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IT OCCURS MORE FREQUENTLY. I'M NOT HAPPY OR IMPRESSED, STILL NO RECALL. PLEASE HELP THERE ARE CITIZENS THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND NISSAN IS IGNORING US. *JS

POWER TRAIN
ON 11/20/14 I WAS ON HIGHWAY 80 DRIVING FROM ROSEVILLE CA TO PALO ALTO CA . I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE (4 TOTAL) IN HEAVY TRAFFIC DOING APRX 50 MPH. WITH NO WARNING I COULDN'T ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE ONLY REVVED WHEN I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL. I CUT OFF SEVERAL CARS TO GET TO THE RIGHT SIDE SHOULDER. AFTER I CALLED AAA A CHP SHOWED UP TO SEE IF I WAS OK. I EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED AND A TOW TRUCK WOULD ARRIVE IN ABOUT 2 HOUR DUE TO TRAFFIC. THE OFFICER SAID BECAUSE OF MY LOCATION I NEEDED TO REMAIN IN MY CAR UNTIL A TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. HE ALSO SAID HE WOULD REMAIN WITH ME UNTIL HELP ARRIVED. I WAS TOWED TO A SHOP IN FAIRFIELD CA (CLOSEST CITY). PAID $3,758 TO HAVE AN INDEPENDENT SHOP INSTALL A NEW NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSION. FOUND OUT LATER NISSAN HAD EXTENDED THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES. MY CAR WAS WELL WITHIN THE WARRANTY REQUIREMENTS. I HAVE SPOKEN TO 2 NISSAN REPRESENTATIVES AND BOTH TOLD ME BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T DO THE REPAIR THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WOULD DO. I EXPLAINED I WAS FROM OREGON AND NEEDED TO BE HOME BY SATURDAY TO WORK. THE SHOP THAT DID THE WORK HAD ME ON THE ROAD THE NEXT DAY. THEY SAID BECAUSE THEY INSTALLED A NISSAN TRANSMISSION IT WOULD BE WARRANTED BY NISSAN. I ASKED IF I COULD SEND AN EMAIL TO SOMEONE HIGHER UP EXPLAINING MY SITUATION AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO NEED. I ASKED IF THEY WERE RECORDING OUR CONVERSATIONS AND WAS TOLD YES. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING IT'S ILLEGAL TO RECORD A CONVERSATION WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE OR APPROVAL. I HAVE CHECKED ONLINE AND AMAZED HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH NISSAN. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE HAS BEEN INJURED BECAUSE OF THIS BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NISSAN HAS KNOWN ABOUT FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS FOR QUITE SOME TIME. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS
AS REPORTED BY MANY OTHER 2008 NISSAN ROGUE OWNERS, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT WAS FLASHING, INDICATING A NON-FUNCTIONAL AIRBAG (THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM, DRIVER'S SIDE INCLUDED, WE FOUND OUT LATER). THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE WAS NOT ONE OF THE 200,000+ VEHICLES RECALLED (08V521000) FOR THE VERY SAME ISSUE WITH THE OCS (OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM). THE ONLY FIX, ACCORDING TO THE DEALER (AND THE SUBSEQUENT MULTIPLE CALLS TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS), IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE: 1) THE PASSENGER SIDE SENSOR DISABLES THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM, AND 2) A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX ($1800-$2500) IS REQUIRED FOR A SAFETY SYSTEM SENSOR. IN LIGHT OF THE NEARLY 1 MILLION NISSAN VEHICLES RECENTLY RECALLED (2014) FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE,THE RECALL REALLY SHOULD HAVE APPLIED NOT ONLY TO THOSE INITIAL 200,000+ VEHICLES, BUT ALL THOSE VEHICLES WITH THE SAME SENSOR SYSTEM THAT THEY STILL HAVE NOT GOTTEN RIGHT. THIS IS POOR ENGINEERING AT IT'S BEST! *TR
