2017 Nissan Rogue Sport. When driving on Hwy 41, the Rogue lost power/power failure and almost came to a complete stop. The power suddenly comes back up and continues up Hwy 41. The rear stop lights did not come on when the power went down. I was on a 5 lane highway and could have been hit from behind. Also, would not have been able to get out of the car since I was in the middle lane of a 5 lane highway.
In speaking with the dealerships, this appears to be a known issue. I took it to AutoNation Nissan they kept it for two days. When I picked the Rogue up from their call to do so, it did not and has not driven the same; I explained this to the tech, Robert.
When he test drove it with us, he gunned it going up a hill, the engine just raced, the car did nothing. He immediately turned to a downhill road and took the car back to the dealership and jumped out of the car leaving us in the middle of their driveway.
This is a major safety issue which I’ve been through before with Nissan. Everyone at the dealerships talks about electrical issues, first thing they check. I spoke with a person at the dealership that advised they do what NISSAN tells them to do.
So it appears the safety issue continues, Nissan has them reset the computer to new settings and the problems and safety issue in our opinion is never addressed. I now have a 2017 Rogue Sport with most likely safety issues and sounds like an old car on its last leg after the dealership is done with it. It's time Nissan steps up to the plate and fixes the problem. Doesn't run/sound the same as when first purchased after trip to dealership.
