Driving on a local freeway at the state limit 70 mph. I passed an 18-wheeler and proceeded to enter the right lane after passing the truck. Once in the right lane the power reduced/engine malfunction light/ service light appeared. This was the first engine lights to appear since owning the vehicle with 12000 miles on it. My rate of speed was dramatically reduced causing the 18 wheeler I had just passed to slam on their brakes and forcing me off the road to avoid an all-out collision. Vehicle was towed to dealership for repair. I was told a seal failed on the water control valve causing the engine malfunction. The seal was replaced and vehicle was returned to me. On the way home from the dealership, after the water control valve repair, the vehicle stalled entering a highway in the center lane! for the second time in less than a month, my life and unsuspecting other travellers' lives were placed in danger due to the malfunctioning vehicle/engine. I was able to put the vehicle in park and restart the vehicle and make it home. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer where it sits.

I first experienced an issue with my Rogue in late December 2023 with the heat going out and the fans were producing minimal air through the vents. I brought the car to the dealer January 2nd, 2024. It took a week for Nissan to diagnose the issue as engine related (engine knocking prior to total heat failure, and metal shavings in the oil pan) and another 3 weeks for them to order and install a brand new engine. In May I brought the car back to the dealer because the AC wasn-??t working. They fixed that within a week. Didn-??t seem to be engine related. Recently I experienced (Friday 6/14/2024) loss of power, whereby my vehicle stalled while driving at 55 mph. No warning lights came on, no alarm bells or signals popped up on my dashboard. As my vehicle began to decline in speed, a note displayed on my dash that stated the engine stalled and pull over safely. I was able to coast the car into a turn lane with my flashers on. The engine then died at full stop. I had to have it towed to the dealer as the vehicle bogged out once it started. Ultimately, it continued to stall out. The dealer notified me today that my engine failed again and that they would have to replace the engine again. I will hear from them again once they determine if they will replace the engine or if they may offer to buy back the car.

I purchased a 2022 Nissan Rogue in October 2022. Almost immediately I started noticing a smell of gasoline not only while I was driving but more so after I pulled the car in the garage and turned it off. The smell was very strong. I called the dealership and made a service appointment (they should have the service records). They checked it out, said they couldn't find anything leaking, etc. but that it was a known issue, Nissan knew about it, but there wasn't a fix in place yet. I also received a recall notice to have a part on the fuel pump replaced and that was completed. It did not fix the problem. I still smell fuel when I park my car in the garage. I'm very worried about the fumes and the problem that's causing them. I am also very concerned about oil dilution and the damage that is doing to my car's engine and the cost of repairs I may have in the future. PLEASE help us with this. This is a huge problem and if you Google it, it's affecting so many people. PLEASE hold Nissan accountable and help us get resolution. As individuals we're getting no where and it's costing us as far as our health and those that ride in the car with us as well as costing us in repairs or replacement of engine systems due to oil dilution. PLEASE act quickly and help with this known problem. Car was purchased from and serviced by Marshall Motors in Salina, Kansas. Thank you!

My son and I were driving home and my 2022 Nissan rogue SV suddenly began making extremely loud banging and knocking sounds in the engine bay. We were traveling approximately 40 mph and did not hit any bumps. The following morning the vehicle was towed to the dealership for inspection and we were told that day that the engine would need to be replaced. While we did not get too many specifics from the dealership regarding the exact cause, it was related to some bearings of some sort and causing what is called rod knock. The vehicle remain at the dealership until a new engine, or new engine parts, could be delivered. Nissan's warranty covered the cost of the repairs since the vehicle only had roughly 15,000 miles on it when the incident occurred. I have not had the vehicle inspected by a third party to confirm that the entire engine was replaced or if only certain parts were. One of the technicians at the dealership mentioned that they had seen or heard whispers about several reports of this particular issue, which is part of why they were able to diagnose it so quickly, but couldn't confirm the exact cause of that engines failure. Prior to the engine failing, there were no warning lights or indicators present in the vehicle. The vehicle has received regularly scheduled maintenance at this dealership since it's purchase. This incident occurred on December 2nd, 2023. I took a video the night of the incident of the vehicle and the knocking sounds it was making, but I can't upload it via this incident report, so let me know if you would like it and I will send it another way.

On 3/25/2023 with less than 800 miles on the vehicle, the throttle got stuck. The cruise control was on but NOT activated. After passing a vehicle on a 3 lane interstate, the vehicle accelerated on its own to over 100mph. I hit the cruise control button to turn it off, but the car continued to accelerate on its own. I hit the brake to slow down and try to get it to shut off (thinking if was a cruise control issue), but every time I lifted my foot off the brake pedal, it would accelerate to speeds of 90-110mph. I continued to brake about 7-8 times, then I heard a loud "kurplunk" in the engine, and it stopped. It continued to drive normally for the rest of the trip. The Rogue was taken to the dealership and checked out. I was told the "floor mats got stuck on the gas pedal and not to drive with both the carpeted mats and the rubber mats in the vehicle." I told the service manager this obviously was not the problem and there was a bigger issue, and that did not explain the loud sound coming from the engine. Upon leaving the dealership that same day on 3/30/2023, I accelerated to get on an onramp to Interstate I35, and the RPM stuck at 3200 and would not go down. The engine roared. It was in Sport Mode, so I switched the vehicle to Standard and the RPMs dropped to 2000-2100. I circled back around and went back to the dealership and had the female servie manager ride with me. The engine continued to roar at high RPMs, and the service manager said this was "normal." We returned to the dealership; nothing further was checked out on the vehicle. 7/28/2023 At 4442 miles, I accelerated to get on an onramp to I20 and the accelerataor got stuck again; I was riding the brakes in traffic on the onramp to get the vehicle to slow down. If i removed my foot from the brakes, it accelerated on its own. I kept my foot on the brake and kept pumping until I heard the loud "kurplunk" and it quit once again. This has happend two more times in December of 2023.

I have had my car in the service center 5 times for the same reason they tell me it is fixed but the problem keeps happening. I have tried to be cooperative. the car has been in the shop on and off since the 18 of July at one point they had it almost a month. This last time they gave it back to me said it was fixed. This is why i'm writing to you I had the car a week and I was driving on interstate 65 I was in the middle lane doing 70 MPH with a tractortrailer on each side of me starting up a long hill with another truck coming up behind me, when my car dropped down to 40 MPH since I knew what was happening I put on my emergency flashers, thank God the truck driver behind me was paying attention because he was coming up behind me pretty fast because of the hill He slowed down and moved over to block the slow lane so I could get over I had my 2 granddaughters in the car with me, and things could have been very bad if the trucker behind me had not been paying attention My Granddaughters and I could have been killed. Now I am afraid to drive the car the dealership told me to Call Nissan hot line and tell them what happened Nissan said they had something else to fix and my car would be fine, well now I'm afraid to drive the car and Nissan said they didn't have to do anything else to help me. I put $20,000 down on this car so I could keep my payments down. and now I'm stuck with a car I'm afraid to drive. am a [XXX] Grandmother trying to take care of my 3 Grandchildren on a fixed income I have 1 in collage 1 who works but doesn't drive and 1 in high school. I have to have a car I can depend on.I'm sorry to go on and on but please tell me if there is anything I can do. I don't have the repair papers at this time they are in the car and it is in the shop again INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Jiffy Lube reported PLASTIC oil pan and plug broke when removing plug for draining. Manager at shop reported he had seen this before in another Nissan and he believes it is a common problem with the plastic oil pan. Internet search of forums describes similar problem and that replacements are the mid-$400s, just for parts, not labor. Sounds like a recall is needed.

On 8/9/2023 I went to my mechanic for a routine oil change. The prior oil change was done by the dealership where I purchased the car, Hgregg Nissan in Delray Beach, FL. When the mechanic opened the drain plug, the threads and assembly all came out, rendering the oil pan useless. If this happened on the highway, the results could be catastrophic. The dealership said whoever did the prior oil change may have over tightened the plug. The dealership had done the prior oil change. The oil plan is plastic, and problems with it are cited on internet forums. Nissan USA will not even cover the cost to replace the damaged oil plan under its warranty. My car was under warranty with about 16,000 miles when the incident occurred.

There is a constant fuel smell around the car when parked (and with the car off) which is present for several hours (and sometimes overnight) after operating and shutting off the vehicle. In addition, there is a gasoline or fuel odor observed inside the vehicle when running in stop and go traffic or sitting at a stoplight for an extended period of time. I have had the Nissan dealer review the problem on two separate occasions, they claim that Nissan is aware but that there is no fix available to them. Also had a fuel system issue (indicator light came on) that was addressed by the dealership.

Vehicle smells of strong gas smell in the cab and around the vehicle. Smell is so strong it makes you feel light headed and gives you a headache. This is a huge health concern for me. When parking in the garage it smells so strong that you have to then park it outside for a couple hours after driving so you do not have a fire hazard in the garage. Took it to the dealership to have diagnosed and was told that they can't find a problem however now I'm see reports that Nissan is aware of the issue and it is under engineering review but there is nothing they can do at this time. I then reached out to Nissan consumer affairs which was absolutely no help at all. This is a huge safety and health concern for me.

I currently drive a 2022 Nissan Rogue SV, purchased in New Braunfels, Texas. When traveling downhill, when applying the brakes the engine studders. I brought it to the dealership to have it checked out, after inspecting multiple points on the vehicle including the brakes, transmission, alignment no such issue was identified as the cause. The technician test drove the vehicle, able to recreate the issue. The technician called Nissan to describe the problem and was informed that this is a known issue when braking downhill.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle would not start. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and the contact was informed that the battery needed to be replaced. The battery was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred, and the battery was replaced a second time. The contact was also made aware of an oil leak. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the contact was informed that cylinder #3 was misfiring possibly due to the spark plug. The mechanic reset the check engine warning light however, the warning light returned. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 32,000.

There is a strong smell of gasoline in the garage after I park my Rogue in it. We can smell it in the house. There is also the strong smell of gasoline in the cab when the car is idling, like when waiting in line or at a stop sign. This is not exhaust, it-??s fuel. I-??ve had it checked once already during an oil change and am taking it back again tomorrow. This can-??t be safe to my health. Am also afraid it will set my house down on fire. Please help.
