The radiator cooling fan and cooling fan assembly failed. I do not have the failed fan available any longer. The cooling fan failed during a heat wave, thankfully I was at a gas station when it failed. Had I not been at a gas station, I would have been stranded in Northern Maine with my [XXX] infant, my elderly mother, and my service dog in excessive heat for hours while waiting for a tow truck. My infant could easily overheat and die in such temperatures. This is a frequent recurring issue in all Nissan Rogue Sports from years 2017 through at least 2022. Forums for Nissan Rogues are filled with complaints of the radiator cooling fan failing (some at 27k miles and often around 67k miles), many complaints occuring in the laat month. Nissan is aware of these issues, many people having the dealership repair the vehicle and others (myself included) complaining to Nissan Corporate itself. The problem has been confirmed by both dealerships and independent service centers. My component was inspected by the service center. I am unsure who else may have inspected others failed fans. There were no warning lights or messages prior to failure. Two days prior to the failure (roughly 48hrs), I had an issue were my AC suddenly stopped working unless the vehicle was in motion, thinking I needed the AC recharged, I made plans to have that done at the next oil change. I now know that this was likely my radiator fan starting to fail. I had no other symptoms of the problem prior to the fan failing completely and nearly overheating my engine. You can see video of a fan starting to fail here: [XXX] Further complaints: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I purchased a 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport a year ago from Carmax. It is just barely out of the powertrain warranty. The engine failed. I have taken great care of this car and gotten it oil changes, new brakes, rotated the tires. I am absolutely incensed that I need a new engine. This is unacceptable. 7/19/24 -Nissan Rogue started experiencing issue with the Air conditioner. I would drive it and it would work while driving but would stop cooling when parked at a stop light. It was experiencing these AC issues for a few days. Temperatures in Sacramento were over 100 degrees this week. 7/21/24 -I called my mechanic 9:00 am and asked if I could come in the next day for an A/C service. My assumption was that it would need to have the AC recharged. 7/21/24 approx 6:00 pm. I was driving with my two nephews [XXX] and [XXX] old). The car started to decelerate. However, after I took my foot off of the gas it would speed back up. It was very scary. I was trying to navigate my way out of traffic as I was in the middle lane and cars were on the right side of me. The eractic way that it accelerated/decelerated was dangerous and could have resulted in an accident. I was very scared and didn-??t know what to do. I was able to get safely off the street and parked the car. The next morning I had the car towed to my mechanic. There were no warning lights to indicate that the car was over heating. My mechanic said that the engine had gotten very hot. There was absolutely no temperature gauges to indicate that it had experienced any issues with temperature. I assume that this may have been happening when the AC was having issues. I think my mechanic said something about a fan not working, this caused the engine to overheat which has caused a new engine to need to be replaced which is over $7000.

On December 18, 2023, on the Masspike, inbound, at the morning rush hour, the traffic was in a hard stop for more than 1 hour (moving very slow bumper to bumper), after the Brighton exit, whatever the reason of the traffic jam cleared and all the car speeded up... My Nissan Rogue Sport accelerated a bit but them came to a very low speed (~ 10 mph). I checked whether I was in the right gear (it was: D), checked whether there was any dashboard error sign (there was not!); the car was very slow at a moment when all the cars near me where rushing. I truly though I could get rammed in the rear by cars trying to get to their destination. All cars were honking because I was at a very low speed (and I put on the emergency lights). I took the car for service at the Marlborough Nissan (740 Boston Post Rd E. Marlborough, Massachusetts 01752) today (December 26 2023), but they claimed there was nothing wrong with the car. I can tell you that if Nissan does nothing to solve this problem, other cars of their brand will have a big problem. I don't know what the problem is, but there are several post in Internet claiming this is a big issue: [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] Please address this situation to Nissan, because they are denying any wrongdoing, even though that this is a design issue in their system.

The cooling fan on the car failed, at that point my engine then began to over heat. I was at risk of over heating my engine and the only indicator was my gauge as my car began to push heated air in to my cabin in the middle of summer despite the ac being on. There have been several other rogue with the same issue, come into the dealership it-??s being repaired at. And I-??ve been with out a car for 7 weeks.

the radiator fan is bouncing off the radiator. looks to be the baring inside the fan blade is worn down & making it bounce. I called multiple places such as O'reilly Auto parts, Auto zone, & Advanced auto was told they don't even have an item part for the fan. I called three dealerships the manager at these dealerships laughed & told me they are on back order indefinitely. This is a huge issue with this model car. I believe this is a hazard that could cause a huge accident if not brought to light.

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle hesitated during acceleration and then lost motive power. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the intelligent power distribution module (IPDM) had failed. The mechanic informed the contact that the IPDM needed to be replaced. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that she needed to pay out-of-pocket for a diagnostic test. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to take the vehicle to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The failure mileage was approximately 79,000.

I took the vehicle to Midas because the smell of eggs was coming from the vehicle, it would jerk upon acceleration, and the oil was empty a week after getting an oil change. Upon researching the vehicle Midas said the vehicle was unsafe to drive and I had to call a dealer because the power train on the car was going. I had the vehicle towed to a Nissan dealer who had my car from Monday to Thursday and claimed they could not find a issue with the car. I was told by Nissan to pick up the vehicle and try to drive it. If anything came up to come back. After being told it was unsafe to drive I called Nissan corporate to escalate and voice my concerns. They suggested sending the car to another Nissan dealer. So again we had it towed. Today this current Nissan dealer is also suggesting maybe the previous shop cleared the computer in the car and to come pick up the car as well and drive it. With no regards to safety or standing by their warranty.

Radiator Fan Assembly within the 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport | Car radiator was at risk of overheating and malfunctioning. Air conditioning would shut down as radiator overheated. This put drivers and passengers at risk. Since the fan does not work, the radiator and engine is at risk of overheating. | This problem has been confirmed by local Midas service center as well as Berman Nissan of Chicago. Both service center and dealer confirmed that they have seen this specific component malfunction specifically in 2019 Nissan Rogue Sport vehicles. The component is on backorder nationwide due to the demand to replace. | Check engine light appeared briefly after radiator overheated. Light then disappeared after car cooled down.
