The harness that controls the lift gate is malfunctioning. It-??s an issue from the previous recall that has reproduced results. The only way to fix it is to disconnect and connect the safety pins by the foot panel on the drivers side door. Over time it has progressively gotten worse to the point that anytime it opens, it-??ll need to be disconnected and then connected before the next time you use it. Also one time it stopped working when the lift gate was open and would not let you close the lift gate.

Our car has experienced multiple incidents of the interior becoming drenched with water. From thew sunroof, the sides of the vehicle, the floorboards, back AND front. We bring it in to be repaired but then another leak occurs. I am worried about water coming into contact with the many electrical parts of the car that help it operate especially since so much wetness occurs near the front half of the vehicle, near the controls. This last incident, we reached out to Nissan's corporate office and they would not cover the cost of repairs. We are nervous about what might happen and ethically don't feel we can sell the car in this condition.

The transfer case system failed, and it is available for inspection upon request. My safety and others safety was put at risk because my vehicle malfunctioned. It is difficult to go uphill and it has turned off on multiple occasions. The car is making a rattle/grinding sound. The vehicle has less than 35,000 miles. The problem has been confirmed by mossy Nissan. The vehicle has been inspected by Nissan. The only warning was having to replace my battery twice while i have owned the vehicle, and the rattling noises/difficulty to accelerate. No lamps or messages illuminated. The vehicle and paperwork are currently with the dealer i can upload the proof at a later time/upon request. I have also included a link that show owners of Nissan rogue having the same issues.

The Electronic A/C system for no reason will when I have the blower selected to defrost or head and feet it changes the blower things that control air flow to someplace in between. Nothing blows out if vents but fan is running. Kind of dangerous when you can-??t defrost windows. I brought it yo dealer twice and of course it decided to start working again. I noticed that when it does that if i shut car off completely and wait a minute or so it works properly again. It has done this about a dozen times. Its like the airflow for blower heat/defrost goes into a halfway position and then i don-??t get any airflow. This first happened in 2015 and is intermittent.

I was driving in 90?F weather for over an hour on the freeway, and it felt like my car's power cut out. This caused my vehicle to decelerate to 40mph while on a busy freeway, leading me to fear for my and others' safety. I turned the car off, waited for 15 minutes at the exit, and began moving again, only for the same issue to occur again. This time I stayed longer and decided not to push the car past 3k RPM, and made it home. The issue occurred once several months ago, and now it has happened twice on the same trip. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms before the power was cut off. I took the car to an independent service center, and they could not diagnose the problem.

I was driving at approximately 25mph in a subdivision and my car turned off. I pulled over immediately to try to crank it but it would not crank. I noticed smoke coming from the engine so I exited the vehicle with my child. The smoke got way worse within a few minutes and then the front engine was engulfed in flames.

My key fob barely works, the red key indicator comes on every few streets. I went for oil change & tune up, they informed me back brake light, passenger side didn't work. Got recall inspection/ repair & wasn't informed of anything wrong. Not to mention I've topped of ac charge twice in one month. There's clearly an issue of fire hazard with the Rogues.I make too many on time payments to be played for an idiot. Also, I shouldn't have to pay a new car price for repairs.

Nissan has a flaw in their door blend actuators in which over time the actuator motor that turns the HVAC flap gets worn out by the turning of the actuator. Overtime the hole in which the actuator goes into gets worn out, which disables the flap to work properly. This is an issue because in my case, I cannot utilize my defroster or even see under cold conditions if the flap cannot distribute cold air. I am forced to pay 5 grande to fix something that is a necessity. I need to see when driving down the road. Nissan should do something to fix this issue on rouge models of 2015 to current ones.

The passenger airbag is faulty, the airbag will now not deploy in the case of a collision. Initially before the airbag light was on, the sensor would classify the seat as empty when it wasn't, similar to one of the existing recalls Nissan has on Rogues, that this VIN is not included in. Now it has progressed where the SRS air bag light flickers on regardless of resetting it. This is a safety hazard for my dogs and spouse that go on the passenger front seat.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that there was a strong damp and mold like odor coming from the front driver's side footwell location. The contact stated that the front driver's side footwell was continuously wet in rainy weather. Additionally, the check engine warning light was illuminated intermittently. The contact later received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V024000 (Electrical System) and the vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the wiring harness under the dash was inspected and lithium-based grease was applied on the wires coating for water protection; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed; however, no failure was found. The contact stated that the recall remedy was not effective since it did not address the water leak. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000.

My horn stopped working and my airbag light came on. Now I don-??t know if my airbag is going to randomly deploy. The dealership wants more than $600 to fix this faulty part and there are several forums suggesting that this is a known problem. How can a single mother keep herself and her teen driver-??s safe while driving this car?

Leaving Walgreens & my car won-??t start (I just bought a new battery a month ago). Called a friend for jump start & it took it awhile to start (5-10 minutes). While driving home my steering locked up twice & the stereo cut out a couple times. It also chugged a couple times like it was going to die. Once home and shut off - the doors won-??t lock.
