Engine blew up before warranty ended and then engine replacement only lasted 1000 miles just blew up again
I purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue in New Jersey. Approximately 45 days after purchase, Nissan issued multiple safety recalls involving a risk of crash. The manufacturer failed to provide the required parts and did not remedy the safety defects within a reasonable time. I repeatedly requested a manufacturer buyback or a rental vehicle while waiting for recall repairs, but Nissan refused both requests. Due to the unresolved safety risk and lack of any reasonable solution, I was forced to sell the vehicle at a significant financial loss. This complaint concerns Nissan’s failure to timely remedy a known safety defect and the resulting consumer harm.
The first time I was on the I expressway the car started to loose power I had the pedal to the floor and it wouldn't go. Took it to the dealer and they kept it for a week they changed the turbo and another recall part. Then it drove okay for maybe a month and started right back again loosing power idling I took it to the nissian they said its a recall on the engine bearings and there wasn't nothing that could be done. The transmission is constantly acting like its going out cause it takes a minute to go into the next gear. Im a traveling nurse I lost my contract due to not having a reliable vehicle it wouldnt start some days nissian checked the battery said it was good they couldnt figure out rhat issue. I bought a new battery still the same issue then I was driving down a busy street, I started smelling gas or a muffler smell the check engine light came on and then I took it to nissian. Nissian said the parts for the engine bearing is in but we cant fiix the recall until the check engine light is off. They did a diagnostics test and said its the EGR valve and control system. They want me to pay over 3000 dollars and refuse to fix it. Ive had the car for 9 months and even though the issue started before my warranty was up they refuse to fix it. Ive attached the first invoice and its at nissian right now I dont have the invoice yet.
Was driving and out of no where all my engine lights turned on and got an engine light that turned on and says engine malfunction power reduced service.
fOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS i KEEP ENCOUNTERING WARNINGS ABOUT ENGINE EMMISION CONTROL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION, THIS HAPPENS DURING LOND DISTANCE TRAVEL AND SLOWS DOEN THE CAR CONSIDERABLY AND MAKES IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS IT WILL NOT DRIVE GREATER THAN 30M/HR. THE EXACT MESSAGE IS MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL) EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
I am reporting a recall remedy compliance concern related to NHTSA Recall 25V-437 for my 2023 Nissan Rogue. In Nissan’s Part 573 Safety Recall Report, Nissan states that dealers WILL inspect the engine oil pan for metal debris as part of the recall remedy. ECM reprogramming is described as a follow-up step when no debris is found. In my case, Nissan dealers were instructed under NTB 25-055B to perform only an ECM reflash and return the vehicle to service without inspecting the oil pan. Nissan Consumer Affairs confirmed to me that Part 573 has not been amended, but that dealers are following internal bulletin guidance instead. My recall is marked “complete” despite no oil pan inspection. I possess independent oil samples showing visible metallic debris consistent with bearing wear, which were visually observed by the dealer but not formally inspected via oil pan removal as stated in Part 573. I am concerned that Nissan is not executing the recall remedy as filed with NHTSA and is instead relying on ECM monitoring that may result in loss of motive power during driving, which is the same safety risk the recall identifies. I am requesting NHTSA review whether the recall remedy is being implemented in accordance with the submitted Part 573 report.
On 11/29/25, my 2023 Nissan Rogue suffered a sudden and complete engine failure while driving at Hwy speed (70mph). The vehicle lost propulsion unexpectedly, which created a significant safety risk. The engine now will not start and the dealership has confirmed the turbo failed forcing coolant into the engine and now it requires a full engine replacement. Prior to the failure, I had received recall information where it states that early warning signs include engine malfunction light. This came one twice, but went off right away. I called to schedule my oil change and asked that I have the recall reviewed, explicitly stating that the symptom was consistent with the known VC-Turbo Engine recall. I was told on the phone that there is no current remedy for the recall and nothing would be scheduled for that at that time. My oil change and tire rotation appointment was 11/18/25. I picked up my car on 11/24/25 upon returning from travel. Five days later the engine failed catastrophically without additional warning. The dealer diagnosed the failure as a turbocharger failure that forced coolant into the engine resulting in catastrophic internal damage. The engine is now inoperable and requires replacement. When I inquired about recall coverage, the dealer stated that they did not observe visible bearing damage and therefore concluded that the active recall does not apply and the current recall protocol can only be applied if the vehicle can run post-update, and since my in inoperable, the protocol could not be completed. The extended warranty will cover the turbo but not the full engine because they cannot identify the full extent of damage without full engine teardown at my expense. The failure mode (engine malfunction light, turbo failure, coolant intrusion, sudden engine shutdown) aligns with the failure pattern on the Nissan engine recall. The absence of visible bearing damage on post-failure inspection does not rule out defect, and the denial is unjust.
My engine has a recall. When i would start my car the engine would stop half way in son I went to the repair shop twice. One time they tell me, there's an active recall.The next time they tell me there isn't. Its a back and forth and then they tell me they are not going to replace it until nissan tells them its okay. They told me to file a claim with nissan which I did as per their instructions and the representative has be giving me no information for 2 weeks. Stating she will "keep trying and call me back" now they are telling me the engine doesnt need to be replaced but since October they were saying it does.
While driving 40-50 mph, my vehicle abruptly dropped to a speed of below 20 mph without warning, scaring me to the point of nearly driving off the side of the road, almost getting rear-ended, and catapulting me forcefully toward my windshield. Simultaneously, this warning light and exact message appeared with a very loud alarm/chime - ⚠️ Warning Engine Malfunction Power reduced Service Engine Now The initial occurrence happened on 07/03/2024 with my vehicle having only 10,208 miles. The same issue has occurred several times since. My vehicle has been inspected by the dealership/manufacturer where they have been unable to reproduce or replicate the problem. I have reported this to Nissan Consumer Affairs as well. The current recall on my vehicle that was announced in July 2025 associated with an engine bearing recall and its safety warnings correlate very closely with what I have experienced. This vehicle is unpredictable and unsafe to drive due to being no warning of the vehicle speed possibly dropping from a 70 mph highway speed down to 20 mph in a split second without warning. This is not only a danger to me and my passengers, but to the other potential vehicles and pedestrians around my vehicle. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
My rogue is smelling like gas almost all the time and I am only getting 225-250 miles a full tank.
Dear Sir or Madam, I purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue for $24,510.00 from a New Jersey Nissan dealership. Only 45 days after the purchase, Nissan issued two separate safety recalls involving a risk of crash. Nissan failed to provide the necessary parts for months and did not remedy the safety defects within a reasonable time, as required under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Act (49 U.S.C. Chapter 301). I repeatedly contacted Nissan asking for: 1.a buyback at fair market value, and 2.a rental/loaner vehicle until the recall repairs were completed. Nissan refused both requests, which violates the New Jersey Lemon Law, the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act, and the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act. Because the vehicle was unsafe to drive and Nissan offered no solution, I was forced to sell it for $16,600.00. My financial loss is $7,910.00. I respectfully request: 1.A formal investigation into Nissan North America’s handling of these safety recalls, and 2.Assistance in recovering my $7,910.00 economic loss. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Failed Power Train part that Nissan Knows about( TSB Notify to shops ) and is not willing to fix. This item is failing premature and can definitely be a safety hazard. My wife was driving this when it completely failed. She was afraid her car was falling apart, vibrating excessively. It is the Left hand side motor mounts. It causes serious vibration throughout the vehicle when driving or stopped. They issued a TSB NTB24-14 for 2021-2023 Nissan rogues. Looking back I would say there was small vibrations around 30-32K miles but it was just intermitting. I'm not a mechanic nor my wife. We bought a Nissan because we were told they were safe and reliable vehicles. I do not feel this way about it anymore.

On 11/29/25, my vehicle stalled in the middle of the expressway during high speed traffic. This has happened multiple times but this is the first time this has happened while I am on the expressway. An error message came across the dash “engine malfunction” and I was unable to accelerate. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership and they reprogrammed something. I have filed a complaint about this issue before. I do not feel safe operating this vehicle. I have an open consumer affairs case open with Nissan right now. I received an email from Nissan warning about an engine malfunction the day AFTER my engine malfunctioned. I would like this situation remedied please. This vehicle is unsafe to drive with an open recall.
There wasn't an incident yet. But there is a recall that has to do with the engine and i didnt want to drive it anymore now that nissan claims there is no remedy to the recall. There were loud noises the engine was making.
My vehicle has been engine recall since July 2025 with no remedy to the repair. I have only 6509 miles on this vehicle. This is totally unfair to consumers paying car nuts on a car tgstbus safety rusk with no incentives to the customer. The car is not safe to drive.
I purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue from Galles Chevrolet, located at 2801 University Blvd NE, Albuquerque, NM 87107, on May 17, 2025. According to the vehicle history report, the vehicle has an active stop-sale record issued by Nissan. I am unsure of the specific component or system affected. Still, cars under an active stop sale should not be sold until the underlying safety or performance issue has been addressed. Since purchase, we have already experienced several issues with the vehicle, including: Engine performance problems, such as stalling and unusual sounds during startup. Electrical and digital system malfunctions, including warning lights, dashboard errors, and intermittent failures of the infotainment system. Other mechanical concerns include inconsistent braking responses and occasional unusual vibrations from the suspension, as well as numerous other issues. The stop-sale record indicates a potentially serious defect that could put the driver or others at risk. I have not been able to confirm the exact nature of the defect or whether it has been repaired. However, there are still two campaigns/recalls associated with my VIN. I am submitting this report to NHTSA to request an investigation and ensure that the vehicle is safe for operation. All payments are current, and there have been no crashes, fires, or injuries associated with this vehicle to date.
Within the first week of owning my 2023 Nissan Rogue, the vehicle began losing power from highway speeds to around 20 mph, stalling during turns, shaking violently, and displaying warning lights. These issues continued for over a year. Several times I nearly crashed because the vehicle suddenly slowed down or lost power on the highway. Nissan repeatedly told me nothing was wrong, but the vehicle was later included in Recall 25V-437 for engine bearing failure. The vehicle became unsafe to drive, and the engine behavior matched the symptoms described by others in the recall.
2023 Nissan Rogue (VIN [XXX] ) repeatedly stalled, lost power from 60 mph to 20 mph, shook violently, illuminated warning lights, and nearly caused multiple accidents. Defects began within weeks of purchase and continued for over a year. These symptoms match NHTSA Recall 25V-437 / R25A8. Nissan denied the problem until after the recall was issued. The vehicle is unsafe and should be investigated for broader failure patterns. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Engine bearing recall that manufacturer and local dealer don't want to take care. I received engine bearing recall notice and contacted Nissan, I was told that they don't have any remedy plan. Called local dealer , dealer said there is no available bearing , no repair. There were ABS , brake alarm on my vehicle not sure if they are related to the engine recall. Manufacturer Nissan just give 10 year warranty but no remedy plan . During the phone conversation, they also rejected to cover if my car drops on the road any cost related to the safety recall issue .
There is an open recall on my vehicle with no repair available and no timeline for the repair. I have already sent my car in for repairs for a previous recall last year due to random stalling. Now my car will sill randomly stall, fail to accelerate, and the engine will shut off in the middle of traffic. There were never any warning signs or messages prior to the failure. I’ve been experiencing engine failure for about a year and a half. I have had the vehicle since March 2023.
What happened: The vehicle is a 2023 Nissan Rogue (VIN: [XXX] ). The engine failed twice: the first failure required major repairs, and the second resulted in complete engine shutdown. These issues are not related to the prior U.S. accident, which only affected the driver-side airbag. The engine and all critical systems were fully functional upon delivery and can be inspected upon request. The second failure occurred while traveling with my family in a remote desert area from Baghdad to Ramadi, putting our safety at serious risk and causing extreme fear and panic for my wife and [XXX] child. The problem recurred and was confirmed by local service centers during the first repair. There were no warning lights or prior symptoms before the sudden engine stoppage; the failure happened unexpectedly during normal use.

The engine failed while driving on the interstate at 65+ mph. The malfunction indicator lights came on and beeped loudly, including Engine Malfunction and AWD Malfunction (which I don't have). The vehicle lost power, and the engine began making a frightening noise. I had to get over several lanes with no working gas pedal, and I'm lucky nobody was hurt. I had to be towed thirty miles to the nearest dealership. The dealership, who didn't answer when I called ahead to let them know I was coming, was unhelpful, and employees made jokes about just trading it in instead of fixing it. They said it could be months, and that there's no remedy for the recall. I have to wait until they re-open on Monday to speak with anybody. The only symptom prior was that sometimes the vehicle wouldn't recognize my key fob being near/in the vehicle, but I thought it was a battery problem. I thankfully knew about the recall and mentioned it to the dealership, but they don't seem to be agreeable to loaning me a vehicle in the meantime, so this will be a difficult repair process.
I was driving home at night when my car broke down on the highway. I had to leave the car there and take an Uber home. The next day, I had the car towed to the nearest Nissan Service Center to have it check/repair. They did the diagnostic and they didn't know what's going on with the car, a few days later they told me that the Engine was damaged and needed to be replaced but they were waiting for Nissan to approve it. It took 2 and a half weeks to get the car repair. After the repair, I still have the engine lights come up and the car jerks when accelerating; I reported these issues to Customer Affairs and they didn't do anything about it; they also told me that there is another recall pending and will be taken care of in January. This is not the first time the car broke down, I had all engine lights come up before and had to run the the Nissan Service center; they told me that the fuel gasket was leaking. I don't feel safe driving this car; I have to commute to work everyday and I'm afraid that is going to break down again. I bought a Nissan car because I had like 4 different Nissan models before and they always have been very reliable cars, but this time I think I got a lemon and Nissan don't feel like they need to replace it. I have all the recordings going back and forth with the Customer Affairs where they confirm that it was they fault the car broke down.
Engine Malfunction Power Reduce Service Now Wed Aug 20. My 2023 Rogue was at the dealership debating that thye can fix the recall because there is no remedy for the inspection for the recall. My truck stayed at the shop until October.This passed Friday October 31 while driving and picking up donations I began to get on the freeway and the same message happened. I couldn't go over 25mph the dealership was 28 minutes away. My safety was a risk it was the on ramp of the freeway and it was all Freeway to get to the dealership. The food donations I picled up were at risk of not be able.to be served to shelter residents. I receibed and email stating that the fuel injectors and EGR Valve need to replace immediately totatling almost 5,000 after just paying $1700 last month. This is the second time since August with this message but the check engine light has been going on and off with alerts in my car amd nissan app for over 6 months
Nissan has failed in a timely manner to get the service bulletin out about the engine recall
The vehicle makes aggressive knocking and whistling noises while driving. Gets louder as the gas pedal is accelerated. The engine shakes and vibrates the vehicle. When the vehicle is turned on and parked with the front doors open, you can visibly see them shaking/vibrating very hard. The vehicle has been in to two Nissan dealerships, which I have paid over $1100, for repairs regarding engine concerns, and the issues persist 2 weeks. I have reached out to Nissan and was informed they do not have a remedy for the open engine recall on this vehicle. The warnings regarding this recall are complete engine failure and all research I have completed suggests not driving the vehicle as it is unsafe and should be addressed immediately. I travel about 80 miles per day for work and feel extremely unsafe. I have been reporting this to Nissan prior to them issuing the recall (recall was dated 7/14/2025).
1. Component Failed: Engine bearings (main, A-, C-, L-link). The vehicle is available for inspection at the dealership. 2. Safety Risk: Complete engine failure while driving, causing loss of power and a high risk of a crash. 3. Problem Confirmed? Yes, by the Nissan dealership. 4. Inspected by Manufacturer? Yes, indirectly. Nissan issued official Safety Recall R25A8 for this exact defect. 5. Warning Signs? Yes. Check Engine light, unusual engine noises, rough performance, and warning messages appeared before the repair attempt.
Two weeks ago my 2023 Nissan broke down on the highway and with reduced power mode we were able to bring it to the closest Nissan dealer. When we got there it was closed but we left the car and asked for a Recall inspection due to the note that displayed on the dashboard matching what we had received in recall. We were informed Monday that it has nothing to do this the recall... we went back and forth with our Nissan dealer and called Nissan corporate and they refused to do the recall assessment which would be looking for metal shaving in the oil pan. They claimed this was because there was not sufficient enough evidence, even though there has been rattling, when I got an oil change he said it was very messy, our thermometer is broken and now I broke down on the highway. They still claimed there was not enough to warrant the assesment. They determined it was the IVT sensor which was a $1,432 fix. We went back and forth with Nissan corporate again to get the recall assessment done so that we could know if this was affecting why we needed a new part that shouldnt need to be replaced so early.... but we were denied again. We paid the money, but are still having issues with our car and Nissan dealer and corporate outright refused to evaluate our car for safety recall Engine issues affected by recall.

I’ve been taking my 2023 AWD Rogue in for warning light and sensors issues and noises from the engine , the dealership that does the repairs informs me there is a recall back in July of 2025 but there is no remedy so there is nothing that can be done and that there is no problem with my vehicle . I shouldn’t worry they will call me.
The engine went from fine to down fast within 5-10miles. No engine light till failure Was driving 65 mph started missing a little then let go complete steam cloud behind car loss all power. cars behind me said they couldn’t see the road in front of them. was in the fast lane when engine failed Was told that the head gasket/head had failed this was the 2nd time this has happened and the car has 37,250 miles and on it 3rd engine 1st engine failed 07/16/2024 2nd engine failed. 10/11/2025
The vehicle has an open federal safety recall related to a manufacturing defect that poses a serious safety risk. The recall was announced months after purchase, but the defect existed at the time of sale. The manufacturer has delayed providing a remedy for more than 90 days and continues to state that repairs are “under development.” The vehicle remains unsafe to drive, and no temporary or permanent remedy has been provided despite repeated contact with the manufacturer’s regional consumer affairs specialist. The issue places my safety and the safety of others at risk because the defect can lead to sudden vehicle malfunction while driving. The vehicle has been serviced and inspected by a dealer who confirmed the open recall but could not perform repairs. The manufacturer refuses to provide a replacement or buyback, and instead continues to require payments for a defective vehicle. There were no prior warning lamps or messages before the recall notice was issued. This is an ongoing safety concern caused by the manufacturer’s failure to remedy a known defect within a reasonable time under 49 U.S.C. §30120(c).
The KR15 1.5 L VC-Turbo engine in my 2023 Nissan Rogue (VIN [XXX] ) suffered complete engine failure while driving, resulting in loss of thrust and a sudden drop in power. The failure corresponds to Safety Recall 25V-437 for defective crankshaft bearings. The issue has been confirmed by the dealer, and no remedy or countermeasure engine is available until late Q4 2025, leaving the vehicle unsafe to operate. Warning signs began a few days prior with an intermittent yellow engine light. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Waiting 5 + months for Manufacturer Recall NumberR25A8 to be dealt with , and informed by Bravo Nissan Texas as well as Nissan Customer Service. Both said nothing could be done and to leave it at the dealership.
There is an odd engine 'rattling', 'guzzling', 'slurping', type noise coming from the engine and the engine has begun to idle very rough even after fresh oil change. This is directly the issue cited from Nissan as recall with no current solution - which is unacceptable. We are not interested in waiting until the car malfunctions worse and in a dangerous way in order to get this recall addressed.
Nissan Rogue 2023. I was driving and the engine start a lot of weird noise like vacuum and all of a sudden the car just lost power and unable to move until a tow truck came
I hust bought a 2023 Nissan Roghe SV, Took it home next day Tried to start the vehicle but the dashboard display system was malfunctionig, tried to shft to reverse or drive and the vehicle wouldn't go foward or backwards.... It flashed all the icons on the dash board. In addition to this incedent the vehicle is making rattleing noices, knocking noices in the engine, it seems noices come specifically from around the timing change, the rattle is noticeable when accelerating and decelerating aorung 2000 rpms, when going up a hill the rattle is more louder.
While driving, the engine started making a loud rattling noise, as if there were loose parts inside. The noise increases when accelerating, and the vehicle has noticeably lost power, especially during gear shifts. It feels like the transmission is struggling or the engine isn’t delivering enough power. This issue raised safety concerns because the vehicle doesn’t respond properly when accelerating or merging into traffic.
The grommet that goes into the plastic oil pan failed and came out with the oil plug.
So my engine failed at 70K. Nissan replaced it with a remanufactured engine the is failing faster than the original engine. Currently at 112K, I have replaced the catalytic converter, muffler, Egr sensor twice, mass airflow sensor and oil changes at 3K just to have the vehicle in the shop for 6-7 months in 2025 alone. Do not buy a 2023 Nissan Rogue with the 1.5L. The reman engine is under a safety recall for bearing degradation, but the dealership won't even look at it unless I pay upfront for a full diag fee of 4500 dollars for a wiring harness that is a secondary condition. Apparently the remedy won't be out until late in Q4 of 2025. No rental or loaner assistance was offered at all. The vehicle has a deep knocking and won't accelerate properly to use roads and interstate driving safely. The latest symptom is low oil pressure and stalling. Completly unsafe car and ridiculous amount of time getting repaired. All of this has been since October 31st of 2024.
My mechanic has discovered metal shavings on my engine oil dipstick. This is a serious condition caused by defective engine bearings. This defects can cause engines to seize which can cause crashes, and injury/death. Nissan is aware of this manufacturing defect and has not provided me with a recall notice or a remedy.
Component/System: Engine — Main Bearing (KR15 VC-Turbo Engine Recall 25V-197) I own a 2023 Nissan Rogue manufactured in Smyrna, Tennessee, equipped with the 1.5 L VC-Turbo (KR15) engine. Nissan issued a safety recall stating that the engine bearings could fail and cause sudden loss of power while driving, but the company still has no remedy or repair available. I have been told by the dealership and Nissan Consumer Affairs to “drive the vehicle as minimally as possible” due to the risk of stalling or crashing. This situation puts my safety and the safety of others at risk because the vehicle could lose power at highway speed without warning. I must continue to make car payments for a vehicle I am afraid to drive, and Nissan has not provided a loaner or alternate transportation despite repeated requests. The issue was confirmed by both a Nissan dealer and independent mechanics, who verified that the vehicle has the KR15 engine affected by the recall and noted that it drives roughly and feels shaky. A diagnostic scan showed a code stored in the telematics/GPS system, though no warning lights are illuminated. I have contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs multiple times, and they have documented my case but have not provided any solution or inspection. As of October 2025, the promised repair “available in October” has not been released. The vehicle remains in use only when absolutely necessary and is available for inspection upon request. Warning indicators: No check-engine or dashboard warning lights; symptoms include rough driving and engine vibration beginning earlier this year (2025).
the vehicle still hesitating, it has very poor acceleration, the car drinks, some more gas than usual, and the car also burns oil. Also, the transmission light comes on more than usual.
No incident yet but filing a complaint because the recall process is taking too long. I called the Nissan phone number on the recall site and the automated system stated letters will be sent out the end of December. My dealer offers a loaner car for repairs up to 36,000 miles and I will be beyond that by the end of December. Nissan is very ambiguous as to coverage for a rental car during the repair. My dealer has been very slow with repairs in the past and an engine replacement could take weeks. They had the vehicle 1 week just to replace a seat cushion. They had it 4 weeks to replace the PVC hose.
I bought a 2023 Nissan Rogue from a dealership. 3 hours after leaving the dealership, I was driving down the highway @ 65MPH & the vehicle started a knocking sound, and before I could pull over to the side of the road, the dash lights started illuminating, and the vehicle stalled, the exhaust was smoking and so was the motor. We had to tow the vehicle to the dealership, and now I am concerned to drive it after it gets fixed. If I wouldn’t have acted extremely fast, this could have hurt me or someone else. I am reading the concerns from others and that this is an ongoing issue, and I wish I could re-do the car sale because I traded my vehicle in solely because I needed a reliable vehicle…. This is by far reliable. Please help me and all these other people..
Oil pan plug damage when changing oil
Back window shattered while closing the door and also the car lost power while driving.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 75 MPH, there was a slight shudder coming from the vehicle, and the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle lost power and then went into LIMP Mode. The vehicle was pulled over to the shoulder and off the exit ramp, and then parked. The vehicle was turned off and restarted. The contact inspected the vehicle but saw no visible leaks. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was then towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 118,400.
Mileage: 118,400
The engine was replaced in this vehicle.Because it shut off while I was driving lost power and everything they replaced the engine.And then just for it to do it again, and a lady who was behind me had to kind of run herself off the road to avoid.Hitting me because she would have pushed me into another car.Hitting meSo she ran her car door but she didn't damage her car.
I started my vehicle, everything seemed fine, but once I reached my destination, the vehicles auto start/off activated which was normal. I was in a school line to pick up my child, once picked up my child and the auto start reactivated, that's when the problems be can. Once I exceeded 40 mph the car began to jerk violently, and as I tried to move over to the side of the road I couldn't fast enough the speed of the vehicle was locked at 5mph with the check engine light coming on and the "auto-start/off" indicator flashing, the violent jerking seemed to al so effect the vehicles air conditioning.
When I first purchased the vehicle I started to smell gasoline inside the vehicle and then it became worse and now I smell it outside and inside the vehicle my garage smells of gasoline. The engine on echo mode gets 35mpg which I was told it should be less than that. The engine loses power, it makes noises, is very rough felling when driving, it seems that the vehicle is getting worse by the day. The gasoline smell is so bad I have to get out of the vehicle because it starts burning my eyes and then I get chest pain/burning.
Draft Statement for NHTSA Complaint: My 2023 Nissan Rogue is subject to Recall No. 25V-437 for an engine defect involving the connecting rod bearings. This defect can cause sudden engine failure, loss of power while driving, or even fire. My dealership confirmed that no repair parts are available and will not be available until late 2025. Nissan Consumer Affairs also confirmed there is currently no remedy, and they denied my request for a buyback. This leaves me with a vehicle that has a known safety defect but no available fix for the foreseeable future. I rely on this car daily, but I do not feel safe driving it because it could suddenly stall or catch fire, putting me and others at serious risk on the road. The problem has been acknowledged by Nissan and confirmed by my dealer, but no repair, inspection, or alternative remedy has been offered. I have already experienced documented engine failure with this vehicle on 3 separate occasions with the “check engine” light coming on. I have zero confidence in driving this vehicle safely for myself, my family and others on the road. I am requesting NHTSA’s assistance to ensure Nissan provides a timely remedy, as this defect significantly impacts the safety, use, and value of the vehicle.
All of the dashboard light turned on while deiving amd the engine started overheating, we had to stop the car for it too cool and then it cannot run faster than 30 miles because it will over heat and shakes we could of had a bad accident , we have tried to resolve this with tge dealership and they have failed multiple times to adress this saying its nothing wrong with the car when cleary there is!
Driving 75 down the highway and my car all of a sudden went into limp mode causing my car to slow down dramatically lights flashing and beeping saying engine malfunction see manual power reduce service now. Could not accelerate luckily we got to slowly roll off the highway, but it could’ve been super dangerous because cars were going so fast. Had to get it towed and then went to a Nissan dealership Fort Collins, Colorado. They said it was the oil sensor malfunction and replaced that part and it ran ok after. Fast foward a month later driving down interstate on Labor Day weekend and the car did the same thing again had to get it towed again to A Nissan dealership in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. Same codes popped up for. P0012 camshaft timing and P0196 engine oil temp sensor. The dealership informed me that first they changed the oil sensor and then if it comes back, they would change the water control valve continuing from the bulletin. They said this should fix it. However, now I’m nervous to drive on the highways thinking I’m gonna get stranded again. This is a concern of mine could’ve been in a car accident with so many cars zooming by and going to live mode.
I know of recall. Nissan has been unable to address. Had my car go in for several malfunctions in August. Battery also bad. Now driving on [XXX] from San Antonio, TX, car malfunctioned. Car was unable to maintain speeds which could have caused an accident. Car under warranty for 1 more month. I was almost to new Braunfels, TX with my [XXX] in the backseat. Had to find a way home on backroads as it was also raining. I tried to have them resolve before and was told no remedy. Now I’m having engine issues. This could have resulted in a bad outcome due to these issues on a high speed Hwy and my car dropped to 35 and I was unable to go faster. This recall needs a remedy IMMEDIATELY. I will be contacting Nissan and local Nissan to address these issues now. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The main issue involves the engine bearings (recall campaign KR15, NHTSA ID 25V-437). According to Nissan, certain engines equipped with the 1.5L VC-Turbo have a manufacturing defect in the main, A-, C-, and L-link bearings or related components. This defect can lead to engine damage and, in some cases, complete engine failure. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This situation puts my safety and the safety of others at risk, because if the engine fails while driving, it may cause a sudden loss of motive power, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. I am especially concerned because I frequently drive on highways and in traffic conditions where a sudden loss of power could result in an accident. The issue has been confirmed by Nissan through the recall notice, but as of now, the remedy is still pending, and there is no immediate fix or available parts for the engine bearing defect. My vehicle has not yet been inspected by Nissan for this recall, and I have not received a loaner vehicle or alternative solution to ensure safety while the remedy is pending. In addition, there are two other active recalls: Turbo hose defect (Nissan ID P4A47) – may cause fuel vapor smell inside or around the vehicle. EEM Logic (Nissan ID P3A28) – related to the Underhood Switching Module (USM/IPDM), which may lead to a vehicle no-start condition. Before the engine problem fully manifests, there are warning signs including unusual engine noises, rough engine performance, and warning messages appearing on the dashboard, such as the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). These symptoms appeared progressively and have increased my concern about the possibility of a total engine failure while driving.
My car is part of a recall but Nissan HAS NOT contacted me about the problem, I only found out about it from a friend.
I received a message on the Nissan app informing me that there is an active recall affecting the engine of my 2023 Nissan Rogue. I called the service department at Butler Nissan, and they advised me that they cannot do anything at this time and that there is no fix available. I then contacted Butler Nissan headquarters to ask what would happen if my vehicle malfunctioned. Would they provide a loaner car or allow me to get another vehicle that isn’t affected by a recall? My 2023 Nissan Rogue is my only means of transportation, and I am concerned about my family's safety in case the engine fails unexpectedly. The female operator told me they don’t handle hypothetical situations and that I would need to call back if something happens to the vehicle. I find this response completely unacceptable. What if a serious problem occurs, and I'm unable to call back? She didn’t take my concerns seriously, and it feels like Nissan isn't taking this issue seriously either. We could be in a life-threatening situation with a vehicle that hasn't been thoroughly tested! I need a solution, not uncertainty.
My engine sometimes shuts down and states it's a Engine Malfunction, Power Reduced, Service Now.
My car just randomly started having issues. It will start one day then take forever to start the next day. I’ve experienced bad odor to the vehicle and also the vehicle jumps into gears instead of smoothly shifting into gear. Also the engine is making noise and also the engine malfunction light has came on and my vehicle reduced power making it impossible to drive out of nowhere. I don’t feel safe riding in this vehicle due to the burning smell.
My 2023 Nissan Rogue is currently at the Avondale Nissan Dealership in Avondale, AZ. I have been taking it between service appointments and the check engine and recall for the pass 4 Months then a week ago it stop while driving to my mailbox and acted like it was in an accident. Each time I have taken to the dealership they stated it unfortunate would have to wait until something worse happen because they couldn’t see it in the codes. Now that what was described has happened the dealership is stating I have to pay 3500 to determine if it is the engine. Before they can determine if it’s part of the recall after 4 months of me asking for the help and describing how the car was running.

I am leasing a 2023 Nissan Rogue (VIN: [XXX] ) and have received an Important Safety Recall Notice (NHTSA Recall 25V-xxx) regarding a potential engine defect. Unfortunately, my vehicle is already experiencing the exact conditions described in the recall. On multiple occasions (most recently [XXX]), I received warning messages including “Engine Malfunction – Power Reduced” and **“Battery – Service Now.” These incidents occurred while driving with my children in the vehicle on highways, creating an unsafe situation and risk of crash. I took my Rogue to Hertrich Nissan twice for inspection. Each time, I was told no issues were found, despite the warnings reappearing. Prior to this, I also had the MIL status recall performed and was told everything was fine. Clearly, the defect persists, and the vehicle remains unsafe to drive. This is an urgent safety concern. I drive my children daily and cannot risk sudden power loss or engine failure on the road. Nissan has acknowledged this defect in the recall notice but has stated parts may not be available until late 2025. That is unacceptable when the vehicle is already showing failures. I am requesting NHTSA investigate this issue further. Nissan should be required to take immediate corrective action, including providing affected customers with safe alternative transportation, buyback/lease termination options, or reimbursement. Customers should not have to continue making payments on unsafe vehicles while waiting over a year for a potential repair.

There is a safety recall on my engine which can result in engine failure. There is no remedy for this major safety issue but my vehicle is my only means of transportation. With this major concern for myself and family its leaves a level of major discomfort traveling with my family waiting for my engine to fail knowing there's no remedy making a disastrous accident inevitable.
Vehicle has been having multiple issues a repairs since May. Contacted Nissan corporate multiple times regarding concern for issues and safety. Vehicle has become disable multiple times along the Highway at early morning hours, ie 2 am. Have called engine knocking, poor engine performance and engine malfunction dash lights illuminated on dash to attention of Cochran Nissan Dealership and Nissan corporate multiple times. Dealership continues to gaslight us about the engine issues. We recently learned of recall on engine and were informed there is “no fix.” Failure to repair will increase risk of crash. Feeling very unsafe and uncomfortable driving a vehicle that is not reliable and may crash due to recall and lack of repair.

My Nissan rogue has had problems starting suddenly and gives an engine malfunction warning and the engine icon I have not had the vehicle for even a year and is under 50’000 miles . The engine is giving low power and a remedy has yet to be given ‘ meanwhile I commute from Ontario to LA daily for work and the engine can fail lose power and cause a accident that is a safety issue and it feels like there is a lack of urgency and concern I went to the dealership and all they say is they have not received a remedy yet but I can do a diagnostic for 210.00 to see what I know is wrong unnecessary out of pocket expense No loaner offered until they get a resolve I had to ask metro Nissan of Montclair buy that would not be addressed until I pay for a Diagnostic further inconveniencing me as a customer this is a safety issue I have a child I have to drive around as well so it is a safety issue for my child as well and me as the driver that commutes 50 + miles . I’m at the dealership in Montclair now needing to wait 4 hours for them to tell me what I know the problem is and I’m sure they will additional recommendations this is not fair and a big inconvenience I had to miss work today because if this .
Recall for engine bearings - no solution Use vehicle with family/children, if not safe and no fix available I suggest a vehicle buy back or a replacement as a second option.
Nissan issued the recall on my vehicle. I took it into the dealership to be inspected. Was informed my car was one that needed to be fixed because of metal fragments on the dipstick in the oil. Was told Nissan had no remedy for the situation yet and had no idea when it would be available to be fixed. So I am expected to continue to drive a car that could stop working while driving and potentially cause a crash. It is absolutely unacceptable for them not to have a remedy for the situation or even know when they will.
Subject: Failure of Nissan to Remedy Safety Issue Similar to Existing Recall – Nissan Rogue Dear National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I am submitting this complaint regarding Nissan North America’s refusal to address a serious mechanical issue on my Nissan Rogue that is substantially similar to an existing recall. Despite the fact that my vehicle is experiencing the same symptoms and failures described in NHTSA Campaign, Nissan has declined to perform the necessary repair under the recall. Details: Vehicle: 2023 nissan rouge Mileage: 62750 Recall reference: Description of issue: My Rogue has exhibited loss of power which is identical to the condition Nissan has acknowledged in the recall. Nissan’s response: When I contacted my dealer and Nissan consumer affairs, they advised that my VIN is not included in the recall, even though the failure is the same as those vehicles covered. Safety concern: This issue poses a significant safety risk, as it stalling at high speed, inability to accelerate, the complete engine failure. The refusal to cover this repair leaves me with an unsafe vehicle and an undue financial burden, even though Nissan is aware of the defect. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate Nissan’s handling of this matter and consider expanding the scope of the recall to include vehicles like mine that are experiencing the same hazardous defect. Thank you for your attention to this urgent safety matter. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
While driving, I suddenly saw the message "WARNING! MALFUNCTION. Refer to owner’s manual" display on my dashboard, which caused a loss of power and made it difficult to accelerate. I had to turn off the car in the middle of the highway, and it was frightening to think what could happen if this occurred on the expressway.
Engine failure while driving on the interstate, loss of power and will not run. At a Nissan dealer in Canandaigua, NY. Telling me the engine needs replace with 70,000 miles on it.
My 2023 Nissan Rogue with less than 38,000 miles is experiencing severe engine failure. This has happened multiple times (more than 30 times) on the highway and in the city. When I am in slow-moving traffic or stop at a red light, the engine appears to rev and a warning light comes up "Engine Malfunction. Power reduce. Service now." Then the speed reduced, and no matter how hard I stepped on the gas pedal, the speed would not go past 8 miles per hour. I had to turn on the hazard lights to warn motorists behind me. To get the car to function, I turned off the engine, let it cool for a few minutes, and turned it on again. This issue has been going on for months. I took it to the Nissan dealership, and they could not find the problem. I am afraid of driving in slow traffic and of stopping at the traffic light. Please, somebody, needs to pass this on to Nissan so they can fix this problem? From online discussions, this appears to be an ongoing problem with many 2023 Nissan Rogues.
When changing the engine oil, the oil pan drain plug and and the oil pan drain plug sleeve detached from the polymer oil pan assembly rendering the polymer oil pan unusable and the car undrivable. The polymer oil pan had to be replaced.
"The vehicle is affected by NHTSA Recall #25V-437, related to engine bearing defects in the VC-Turbo 1.5L 3-cylinder engine. This defect may cause engine damage and sudden loss of power while driving, creating a serious safety hazard. As of today, no repair or remedy has been provided."
I received a recall in the mail and around June i have calling since then try to get my recall repaired , i went the dealer today and they tell me they do not have the parts i am trying to get my recall repaired before emission and just wanted to report this matter.
Since last November 2024 I have been trying to see what is wrong with my car. Previously I took it to Nissan for a thoroughly check just for them to tell me I went over my miles and they wasn’t able to fix my car with my warranty. I have taken my car to 3 different places where they all tell me different things are wrong but that is not the problem. The noise has been coming from my engine sounding like something is going to break on my car. The more I push down on the accelerator the more worst the noise get. I am tired of driving this car like this and I don’t know how to fix it. If I have to I will be getting my lawyer involved for negligence.
I own a 2023 Nissan Rogue 4D 4Wd SI. The air conditioner went out. Took it to the shop and was told the coolant was low. No vehicle warning indicated. Made appointment with Nissan was advised the water pump malfunctioned. Internet inquiries resulted in multiple owners of this vehicle reporting catastrophic engine failures as a result of water pump failure. Some failures occurred suddenly with no warning lights from the vehicle. I contacted Nissan was advised no TSB’s at this time no recalls on this vehicle. Further advised they would inquire if the service tech will perform checks on the engine oil for metal debris and if they are checking the head gaskets for failure and warped heads. Very concerned this vehicle will fail and we will suffer a financial hardship. Nissan is aware of the issues reportedly involving 443,000 vehicles.
In April of this year my 2023 Nissan Rogue complete shut down while on the highway. Received a warning notification “Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now”. The car would not drive over 10 miles per hour. The dealer claimed it was our error; stating we had hit a curb so not under warranty. We had not. We were charged approx $200 to fix. Now today, July, we have received the same warning and again it shut down. Had to have it towed to the dealer. They are saying it’s probably a sensor like last time. I asked about the current engine recall and was told they don’t have a fix and this would not cause these issues. These issues are a serious safety issue to just stop the car on the highway while diving!
I bought my daughter a new 2023 Rogue SL in June-2023 at our local Nissan dealership in Concord, CA. On [XXX] the car's engine completely cut-out on [XXX] on a trip to L.A. Fortunately, my daughter was able to coast to the far lane and call AAA for a tow to the Valencia dealership. There the service rep told her that two other Rouges had also been towed off the Grapevine that day. They kept the car for a couple days and replaced the engine oil temp sensor which got her back home. On [XXX] the engine again completely cut-out while my daughter was crossing [XXX] on her way to work. More fortunate than the [XXX] incident, my daughter was able to coast off the bridge via an offramp in [XXX]. Once again AAA came to the rescue towing the car to the Concord dealership where it now sits for evaluation. The service department told me that they need to bring in a high-level mechanic to go through not only this engine but several other Nissan and Infiniti engines. Needless to say, both of these instances placed my daughter in extreme danger and for the grace of God she came through without injury.

Subject: Engine Recall (KR15) Ignored – Engine Noise Ongoing + Misleading Tailgate Lock Repair Offer – Lost Trust in Dealership I bought my 2023 Nissan Rogue brand new from this dealership two years ago. Recently, I’ve experienced multiple issues with both the car and the service, leading to frustration and loss of trust. ⸻ 🔧 1. Engine Recall Ignored – Still Making Noise I went in for a recall service months ago. The service advisor (named Well) only replaced a hose and said everything else was fine, even though I told them about a knocking noise from the engine. Now, the KR15 engine bearing recall has been issued, and the noise is still happening. The dealer continues to dismiss it, but I am seriously concerned about potential engine damage or failure. I am requesting a full, proper inspection and repair under this recall. ⸻ 🚪 2. Tailgate Lock – Misleading Advice and Pressure to Pay Around 3 months ago, I visited the dealer because my tailgate lock wasn’t opening, after I had broken the tailgate glass myself earlier. They told me: “Your lock is working fine. There’s just broken glass inside — once we vacuum it, everything will be okay.” But the next day, another employee told me: “No, your lock is actually broken. You need a full lock replacement for $893.65.” This surprised me because they had just told me the lock was fine. After I expressed concern, they negotiated the price down to $500 flat. Due to financial difficulty, I couldn’t proceed at the time. I’m attaching the invoice they gave me for proof. This change in opinion and pressure to pay left me confused and feeling misled. It added stress, and I now feel I cannot fully trust the dealership’s service recommendations. ⸻ 📌 3. What I Am Requesting: 1.A proper inspection and repair of the KR15 engine bearing issue and engine noise under the recall. 2.A review of the tailgate lock experience and explanation for the inconsistent service advice and price negotiation. 3.Clear communicatio
More than an incident, I’m concerned it might turn into one. For the past few days, I’ve noticed something unusual (nothing serious for now) with the engine/transmission. When I shift to Drive, the engine seems to jerk a bit or takes a moment to engage the gear. There’s a slight delay, but it doesn’t feel normal. I’m worried because a friend who owns a Rogue had a similar issue, his car wouldn’t start, he took it to the shop, and they told him the engine needed to be replaced. My fear is that this might be the same issue and that it’s related to this recall. I just spoke to Nissan America, and they told me there’s still no solution and that I should call back between August 15 and 18 to check for updates. That seems like a long time for something that could potentially be serious.
My vehicle abruptly went from 65 to 30 while driving with my children on the expressway. The check engine light and three other lights came on, and the car wouldn't start for an hr or so, and then it wouldn't accelerate past 25-30 miles, while all the check engine light and the other lights continued to stay on.
when getting an oil change. I was told buy the technician the oil pan bolt is defective due to a screw being stripped. This has been a known issue with the Nissan Rogue. Many complaints have been listed online with this particular issue. I was told by the technician the oils pan is made of hard plastic and is a common problem
Motor blew. No warning no nothing. Nissan will not do anything about it.
On the morning of 6/18/2025 approximately at 545 am central time my 2023 Nissan Rogue SV lost complete power on Interstate 59 South in Alabama near Gadsden just past the one lane construction zone. No warning lights or check engine lights just had sudden engine noise and seen my rpm’s were holding at 3000 and not accelerating anymore. The noise stopped when the car went into limp mode. I was able to pull over onto shoulder and turned off vehicle. There were no visible leaks or signs of overheating. So called a tow truck to take me to nearest Nissan dealership. After several attempts of trying to crank my engine technicians discover a blown head gasket. Also note since owning vehicle there has been issues with engine misfiring and a spark plug blowing on cylinder 3 around 20k miles.
I am reporting a serious safety issue after three service visits to Star Nissan. Most recently, on July 8, 2025, they performed a full transmission replacement under warranty (see invoice attached). Since receiving the car back, it now makes creaking noises, vibrates severely under acceleration and deceleration, and is completely unsafe to drive. The shaking is so bad I can feel it under my feet and seat, especially at highway speeds (40–50 mph). The car did not have these symptoms before the transmission repair. They claimed they did a test drive, but that is obviously false. This is now the third time I’ve had to return this vehicle for drivetrain-related issues, and I’ve been told to “wait until July 15th” with no resolution while my car is dangerous and undrivable. I’m reporting this as a potential safety risk, negligent repair, and breach of warranty, and I want Nissan investigated for returning vehicles in this condition. I’m afraid to drive it and feel completely ignored. This dealership needs to be held accountable, and Nissan should be required to take responsibility before someone gets hurt
The vehicle a Nissan Rogue SV 2023, with a turbo engine constantly decelerated a number of times. sometimes it gave a warning and other times it does not. The first time it happened I started the engine, and the car crawled like a turtle. Even while pressing the gas pedal, it did not go any faster. I stopped the car very perturbed of what to do. I turned the engine on and tried again, and it accelerated as it normally does. This occurred multiple times on different occasions. Vehicle was taken to the dealership on multiple occasions with no solution being offered. I got really frustrated at the dealership because you are the makers of this vehicle which is decelerating for no reason and continues to do so and you claim the reports you run are showing nothing to resolve the issue. I should not be scared of driving my vehicle which is still under warranty, or when an accident occurs and God forbid a life is lost. The uncertainty of this happening again is not known. I wrote to Nissan Consumer Affairs at their headquarters and was told that they could do nothing about it under the Lemon law. The vehicle would have to be repaired about 4 times before they would do anything. This is ridiculous. It is their manufactured vehicle. Now I am seeing that the vehicle 2023 Nissan Rogue with the turbo engines are being recalled for engine failure. I was told that I will have to wait until I get a letter from Nissan with my VIN number before they will look at it. Please help me get this resolved. Thank You.
I HAVE THE SMELL OF RAW FUEL COMING ENGINE AFTER ENGINE IS SHUT OFF . THE IS VERY NOTICEABLE INSIDE CABIN AREA, AND OUTSIDE OF CAR IF IT IS IN GARAGE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP TO MY NISSAN DEALER EACH TIME I BRING IT IN FOR SEVICE. I RECIEVE THE SAME ANSWER EACH TIME THERE NOTHING FROM NISSAN ON THIS ISSUE. THE SMELL OF GAS IS OVER BEARING AT TIMES , AND I'M AFRAID THAT IT MAY CATCH FIRE. THIS HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHACED THE CAR NEW.
While on the highway heading to Florida....... all kinds of lights came on and reduced the speed. It was hard to understand what happened but I made it to the Nissan place halfway through the trip. They couldn't do much and had no loaners but the reset the codes in my car. As it was cleared..... everything went back to normal as of nothing happened. But on my way back home ..... it happened again. This time I couldn't make it to Nissan but I made it to auto zone and a local shop in Orangeburg. They received 13 different codes. Again.... there's was nothing they could do so they man reset the codes in my car. Clear the code n I made it home safely with my family.
Subject: 2023 Nissan Rogue SV – Thermostat and Oil Temperature Sensor Failure I am reporting a mechanical failure involving our 2023 Nissan Rogue SV that may represent a broader safety concern. We purchased the vehicle used, in excellent condition, with the goal of traveling safely with our two young sons. Just 31 days after purchase, and only 1,800 miles into ownership, the thermostat assembly and oil temperature sensor assembly failed without warning. The incident occurred over 900 miles from our home and 450 miles from our intended destination, leaving our family stranded far from support. We brought the vehicle to Windy Nissan for service, where we were told it was the third 2023 Rogue SV with under 70,000 miles to come in that week for the exact same failure. This strongly suggests a recurring issue that may affect a wider number of vehicles. Given the vehicle’s age and mileage, this failure was unexpected and raises concerns about reliability and safety, particularly for families traveling long distances. Sudden failure of key engine components like these can result in engine overheating or shutdown, posing risks during highway driving or remote travel.
Engine malfunction at approximately 71,000 miles. Diagnosed by Nissan dealer and was told that engine is not repairable and must be replaced.
Hi [XXX] , just wanted to let you know that the mount is approved through your warranty but you do have a $100 deductible from them.

I was sold a 2023 Nissan Rogue last July From *** Nissan of Topsham ME. that had a faulty main seal/head gasket which allowed exhaust,coolant and freon vapors to be blown into the car effectively creating a gas chamber. 31 days after my purchase at service appointment to fix defroster I was told "all the coolant leaked out of the resevoir and we don't know where it went, you should keep an eye on it". I was never told further diagnostics were needed at that time however once I realized what was going on and decided to file a complaint with the Maine attorney general's office, I looked over paperwork from visit that day and mechanics notes stated "coolant may be leaking into engine further diagnostics are needed". Let me explain that I am a courier and drive my car all day every day staring and stopping it as I make deliveries. I drove the car around poisoning myself with fumes for 7 months. I began to feel ill in November when I started using the heater more. I was completely exhausted (literally) and didn't know why. I also was having cognitive difficulties and sleeping 10-11 hours a day. In Jan 2025 I developed white spots on my tonsils and the back of my throat felt as if it was scorched. I began having uncontrollable muscle twitching and my hair and eyelashes were falling out, I still did not realize what was wrong. At the beginning of Feb. I smelled strong fumes, I immediately brought the car to ******Nissan in Las Vegas NV. where I was at the time, I left the dealership that day having been told once again "we don't know what's wrong". I have come to learn that both dealerships knew what was wrong and were just ignoring the problem. The car had the engine replaced not once but twice, the first engine had no compression, the 2nd also had the same terrible smell. I have been poisoned and lied to. I now have multiple health issues.

I am reporting a recurring issue related to the oil drain plug design on the 2023 Nissan Rogue. During a routine oil change service, the technician at Midas broke the oil pan drain plug, resulting in the need to replace the entire oil pan. This was not due to technician negligence, but rather a reflection of a poorly designed or overly fragile drain plug and oil pan combination that is prone to damage during standard maintenance. This is the second time this has occurred, and it has become clear that the design lacks durability and fails to withstand the basic functions required during oil changes. Although Midas covered the replacement this time, this is not a sustainable solution, as owners should not be expected to risk hundreds of dollars in damage during a basic service procedure. There are numerous reports online of similar issues affecting other 2023 Nissan Rogue owners. This appears to be a design flaw that could lead to repeat incidents and unnecessary financial burden for vehicle owners. I am seeking acknowledgment of this issue by Nissan and a permanent resolution, whether through a redesigned part, recall, or official service bulletin.
Traveling on highway in Washington DC, cruise control shut off and powered down car, electrical warning for rear doors not closed, seat belt and airbag warnings. Engine lights came on by the time we got into NY, gas fumes in cabin, and oil was down 2 quarts. Car would not go over 40 at times. Car has been at dealership for over 65 days with work done to turbo, cvt transmission, bearings, leaks in headliner, oil consumption and electrical issues, etc. NCA and BBB claims filed, only given some of the work orders as dealership and NCA refuse to provide anything. Defect Form sent to NCA as well. Independent mechanic also reviewed car after it was initially returned to me for less than a week. Mechanic supplied a write up and pics confirming the transmission and oil leaks as well as leaks in engine and electrical issues were not resolved. In addition, the car now has water leaks on headliner and it smells moldy. Please note: this site only allowed me to add 1 document. I can provide all documents if you provide an email or link to do so. Thank you
Having issues getting my oil changed....problems with drain plug and oil pan.....still having issues recently, no Nissan or Walmart mechanics won't touch my car. They all would tell me to take it back to dealership
The issue began [xxx]. I drove to Napa, stayed for about 20 minutes. When I started the vehicle again and started driving on the highway it was revving but not going above about 10 mph. Had to pull off the road. I waited a few minutes turned it off and back on and it drove normally and I got back home. It's been doing the same thing intermittently since then but more often and throughout the day or drive. When I come to a stop at a stop sign or light and start driving again it will get stuck in 1st gear and not switch out until I turn the vehicle off and on again. This has happened in traffic several times. The dealership has not been able to diagnose it or fix it since they have not been able to reproduce it. They have kept it overnight three times I believe and once had a tech take it home for this and other issues including issues with the proximity sensors that they also haven't been able to correct. No warning lights appear. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
There is an intermittent smell of gas/exhaust fumes in the cabin since purchasing the car. Nissan says there is no issue and offers no fix but I have never owned a car that had this type of smell in the cabin unless there was something wrong. The smell can be so bad as to cause nausea and headaches.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35-40 MPH, the vehicle started lagging and lost motive power as if the vehicle would shut off. The continuously variable transmission (CVT) code was displayed on the instrument panel with an engine malfunction. The failure occurred the following morning. The vehicle was towed to the dealer however, the dealer could not retrieve the CVT code to determine the cause of the failure. The dealer stated that the transmission fluid would be flushed and refilled as a temporary repair until the vehicle could be diagnosed and CVT code had been retrieved. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 58,000.

Component/System Malfunction: I own a 2023 Nissan Rogue and have experienced excessive engine vibrations since the beginning. Despite multiple service visits, the issue persisted, ultimately leading to a complete engine failure at 64,000 miles. Safety Concerns: The vibrations and power reduction warnings compromised safety. My car eventually broke down in Vail, CO, leaving me stranded in freezing weather for four hours while waiting for assistance. Dealer/Service Center Findings: At my first service visit, the dealership diagnosed a transmission mount issue and claimed to have fixed it, but the problem remained. The check engine light appeared twice, along with an “Engine Power Reduced” warning. The dealership found no immediate issues. At 64,000 miles, my car broke down, and the check engine light reappeared. The dealership initially couldn’t find the problem but later performed a compression test and quoted a $10,000 repair estimate. Manufacturer/Inspection History: I reported the issue multiple times before my warranty expired, but Nissan failed to take corrective action. Now, just 4,000 miles past the warranty, I am being asked to cover the full cost, despite having records proving I reported the issue earlier. Warning Signs Before Failure: •Heavy engine vibrations at startup and idle. •Two check engine light incidents. •“Engine Power Reduced” warning message. •Complete breakdown at 64,000 miles, leaving me stranded in cold weather for four hours. Conclusion: This defect was present from the start, yet Nissan failed to address it. I request an investigation, as this may be a widespread issue affecting other Nissan Rogue owners.

I took my car to the Nissan dealer because sometimes when I am stopped with my foot on the brake the engine will start to accelerate trying to overcome the brake. The only thing I can do to stop this is turn off the engine. This has happened 4 times in the last month and not before. The dealer was unable to find anything wrong and could not duplicate this action. I have now been referred to Nissan consumer Affairs, Bureau of Automobile Repair, New Motor Vehicle Board and now your agency, I feel that this vehicle to drive because it could cause damage to me, my car and the the public. The last time this occurred I was stopped coming out of shopping center waiting for the traffic to clear when the car started accelerating which would have pushed me into the oncoming traffic. Hopefully, you'll be able to help me as now of the above mentioned agencies have been able to help. The only date I can give you for certain was 12/23/2024
On December 31st, 2024, we came out from the grocery store to our 2023 Rogue which we had been running errands in all day and the car wouldn’t start. We then tried to give it a jump, replaced the battery, and checked fuses. None of these helped so we had it towed to Firestone. The tech there stated he found coolant in the spark plug wells and told us we needed to have it sent to the local Nissan dealer we bought it brand new from. After the Nissan techs inspected the car, we were told it needs a whole new engine. The car has had proper maintenance and oil changes its entire life and only has 61,000 miles and now it needs a new engine due to premature engine failure.
While driving down the highway going approximately 55 MPH, the vehicle lost power in the middle of the highway and shut off completely, with a sudden warning that said “Engine Malfunction.” The vehicle stopped in the middle of the highway and smoke began filling the cabin, leaving me to believe there was a fire under the hood. I evacuated the kids out of my car and pushed it off to the side of the road, then called the fire department. When the vehicle was towed to a Nissan dealership they discovered that there were many large metal chunks in the oil pan and the engine needed to be completely replaced. The vehicle only has 50,000 miles on it and is technically covered under powertrain, however Nissan is trying to get out of covering the replacement of the engine. There have been many documented cases of this exact thing happening to this make model and year Rogue. Nissan needs to take responsibility before someone dies. This incident was incredibly dangerous and could have ended catastrophically had I not pushed the car off the roadway.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic for a routine oil change and was informed that the oil pan drain plug was made of metal; however, the oil pan threads were made of plastic. As a result, oil was leaking from the oil pan due to the threads being stripped. The contact was referred to the dealer who acknowledged the failure and agreed to replace to oil pan under warranty; however, the oil pan was replaced with another oil pan with the same issue. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 19,990.

I'm seeking reimbursement for purchase of new oil pan, $618.99 plus tax. From further investigating, the main issue is Nissan chose to use plastic oil pans in this vehicle. I took my vehicle to Walmart for oil change and company would not complete due to they reporting previous issues with Nissan Rogue oil system. They told me there was a recall. I called Carmax, place of purchase, and was told no recalls. I called Nissan dealership and was told no recalls. I then took my vehicles to Suns Auto and reported what was told to me by Walmart. Suns Auto said soon as they touched the oil plug it exploded off and they were unable to replace. This caused all of the oil to drain out annd therefore making car undriveable. At that point, if I wanted to drive my vehicle, I had to pay for replacing oil pan which was $618.99. I've been trying to get some type of compensation from all mentioned above but no one is taking responsibility. Neither would compensate or work with me on minimizing my out of pocket cost. I hope you understand my dilemma and assist. Very disappointed, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that upon beginning to accelerate from a green light, the vehicle lost automotive power. The contact was able to get off an exit to stop and park the vehicle safely on the side of the road; however, upon attempting to restart the vehicle the vehicle would not restart. The contact stated that the message "Power Failure - Vehicle Stalled - Please See Service". The vehicle was towed to a dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed.

I have only owned this vehicle 7 days and am returning it. After receiving this car and driving to 35 miles I noticed an intense smell of gasoline in the cabin of the vehicle. I at first assumed it could be exhaust from other cars. I stopped and waited a moment began to drive again and the smell permeated the cabin. The smell made me nauseous. I got home and called my local Nissan dealership and read online to check the dip stick for a smell of gasoline. Pulled the oil dip stick and the oil was diluted the viscosity was extremely runny and smelled strongly of gas. After reading of similar issues with this product I explained to the dealership I no longer wanted this vehicle and have sent it back because of this issue. In the week I attempted to drive the car the fumes did not stop were not subtle and were persistent. The experience was not pleasant and left no sense of dependability with this product. Nissans dealership stated it was an issue they were aware of and that I could bring it in for them to complete diagnostics and testing. I explained that if they were aware that any dealer prior to selling these cars should have inspected these vehicles for this issue if it is known and ensured the vehicle was safe. I feel I was sold a faulty unsafe product with known issues regardless of my safety. Nissan was once a reputable brand if the deal ship was aware of this and Nissan is aware of this they should automatically recall and adjust the issue quickly to ensure they take care of the consumer. I will not consider purchasing another product from this brand.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while having a routine oil change by an independent mechanic, it was determined that there were metal shavings inside the oil filter.

There is a problem with a tapping noise from the engine. It normally happens when lightly accelerating. “Nissan Rogue 2023, with 3 Cylinder, 1.5L DOCH 12-valve Super Charged, 201 hp, 225 lb-ft torque, XTRONIC CVT”. It started at about 11,000 miles but has continued and is now about 23,000 miles. I had the car in for a part replacement under warranty November 18, 2024 and asked for a test drive with a technician to observe for noise with me. We both heard the noise and the technician said it could be a couple of things. 1. Something could be loose in the engine linkage. 2. Could have something to do with the Turbocharger linkage or activator. 3. Could be just because it is a 3 Cylinder engine it is just a little more noisy (don’t by that). 4. I asked if it was possibly that the timing was slightly off. Technician said the only way to check, would be to have to drop the engine since you could not access the ports as it sits in the engine compartment. 5. I use regular 87% Octane gas as called for in the manual and told the technician that another dealer mechanic suggested trying premium grade Octane and see if that helps. I tried higher octane gas and still making the same sound when lightly accelerating from a stop or turning a 90 degree corner. 6. The next oil change, I will check to see if any metal shaving are in the oil. I will need to take it back in to the Nissan Dealer soon to have a discussion again.
Vehicle was brought in for an oil change and service appointment at the Nissan dealership the day before and was then driven 300 miles. The following day, it was being driven at 40-50mph in residential area when suddenly the gas pedal became unresponsive and the vehicle slowed down on its own in traffic. The message appeared on the screen "Engine Malfunction, Power Reduced, Service Now" and the car would no long go faster than 12 mph. The car had to be turned off and on 4 times before the error cleared and was then able to be driven again.
In September 2024 I too my car to Bedford Nissan in Ohio. They did an oil change and since then my car has been having issues. When reversing and switching into drive my car jerks extremely hard. I contacted them to let them know and they advised me to bring the car in to get it looked at. Due to my life situations, I was unable to do so at that time. In the beginning of October 2024 my car completely shut down. I was unable to shut it off with the push button or change gears. All of the lights on the dashboard came up. It took me almost 20 minutes for it to finally restart. I contacted Nissan immediately and they advised to bring it back to them. My 2023 brand new car already had a dead battery, faulty wires in the car, the screen goes in and out, and had an Axcel leak. The supposedly fixed these issues. A few weeks later I am having the same exact problems. I have contacted Nissan consumer affairs multiple times. I have reached out to the dealership. I do not get calls back or help to fix the issues that keep reoccurring.
Major engine problems. The engine has loud knocking noise. While driving the car it shakes badly. When the hood is open you can see the engine jumping and it’s not properly secured. The engine can fall out causing a safety hazard and accident. Vehicle is not safe to drive. When driving the car loses speed immediately going over 55 mph.
Our 2023 Nissan Rogue with only 15,000 miles suffered complete engine failure (engine seized) driving on busy [XXX] passing through Baltimore. The safety of myself and my family was put at risk, and if we hadn't been in the left lane (allowing rapid access to the breakdown lane) we would have been in a multi-car pile-up going at high speeds. Afterward, my safety was at risk waiting for 5h on the busy highway waiting for a tow truck. There was a slightly rough engine sound just 15-30 minutes prior to the engine seizure, but no warning messages. The only message that appeared was "Engine Failure" at the moment the engine seized. The car was towed to the local Firestone Service station where they confirmed engine seizure with normal oil levels. We do not know if the oil had been compromised by infusion of gasoline (as we have now discovered is a problem with the Nissan Rogue engine). The car was subsequently towed to Bob Bell Nissan in Baltimore, and they have yet to inform us of their conclusions after 5 days. Route 9 Nissan in Westborough (where we bought the care) did not inform us that this was a potential problem nor that it is under investigation by the NHTSA.

engine "spun a bearing" while driving on highway, car began shaking and was very unresponsive. This is the 1.5l, turbo 3 cylinder engine that appears to have had reported issues before. Would like to have documented in case of future recall or class action lawsuit.
I purchased the car used 3 weeks ago, still under full Nissan Warranty. 10 days ago, while driving, unexpectedly, engine started knocking loudly and then shut down. My granddaughter was driving, and was unable to restart. The Nissan dealer had performed a "health check" of the car a week prior and noted no concerns. And the dealer who sold me the car did the same, before selling it to me. Car was towed to the Nissan dealership. The engine is completely blown and there were metal chips in the oil pan. The Nissan dealership is awaiting authorization from Nissan to replace the engine and any other system impacted. It's going to take weeks to repair.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving approximately 30 MPH, there was white smoke entering inside the cabin of the vehicle from the exhaust pipes. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact pulled over to the shoulder of the roadway and exited the vehicle safely. In addition, the vehicle would not crank or restart. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer where it was diagnosed but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure.

At 8:00 PM, driving 70 MPH on [XXX] from Dallas to Houston, Texas, multiple warning lights and messages illuminated on the dash. Other than a low fuel warning, there were no other warnings or messages at the time of the incident. The warnings and messages displayed were "AWD Error", AEB system OFF, RAB system OFF, slip indicator or VDC OFF, master warning light, and "Engine Malfunction Power reduced Service now." When this occurred, the vehicle began decelerating, and I was unable to accelerate and return to highway speeds. I was driving in the left lane and had to make my way to the shoulder on the right of the highway. Fortunately, I came to a stop approximately two miles from the [XXX] exit for Centerville, Texas. It would have been extremely dangerous to remain on the shoulder, especially after sunset, so after reading the owner's manual, I decided to travel the shoulder at the very reduced speed my vehicle allowed. After exiting to a safe location and refueling, I called 24/7 Nissan roadside assistance at 8:50 PM. I was told a tow truck would arrive around 10:20 PM, and I would receive text messages with status updates. I called three more times, at 9:32, 11:28, and 11:54 PM. I never received a text message because no towing providers were ever located and dispatched to my location. On the final call at 11:54, I was told they would try again at 8:00 AM. Centerville, Texas is a small town with a population under 1,000 people. I was left stranded nearly 150 miles from home in a non-major metropolitan city without ample resources such as uber to take me to the nearest hotel. Furthermore, had I not called back, no one from Nissan was going to inform me that I would not receive a tow.

While driving severe shuddering and knocking of the engine occurred rendering vehicle undriveable. Car was towed to Nissan dealership resulting in the entire engine and turbocharger needing to be replaced. Technician reported needing excessive force to move the crankshaft, high gasoline scent from oil, and metal/bearing in oil pan.
While I was driving out of state on [XXX], 2024, the engine light came on and stated "engine malfunction power reduced." Immediately the acceleration to the car was out. I was barely able to go 50 or 60 mph on the highway where everyone else was going 70 or 80 mph. Additionally the AWD light came on saying it was disabled as well. We were able to make it to safety, get a rental car, and then take my car to the nearest Nissan dealership in LaCrosse WI. I left my car there and waited to hear back about what was needed to repair the car. After talking to the service manager, Mike, he indicated he would talk to Nissan Corporate and let me know. Nissan Corporate advise the service team to clean the part in the car (the actuator?) and put it back in and that would fix it. This did not work because as I was driving back home to Mankato MN from LaCrosse WI, the same engine light came on while I was on the same highway going in 70 mph traffic. Again the car would barely go 50 to 60 mph, but we made it to a nearby gas station and called Nissan Roadside assistance. They towed my vehicle to the closest Nissan dealership in Rochester and it's been there since [XXX], 2024. Today's date is May 24, 2024. This dealership service shop has now replaced 3 parts (sensors?) and they were bringing my car back to me today Friday May 24, 2024. They were scheduled to arrive before 11:00am CST. At 11:42pm, I received a text from the service person I've been working with stating that: My car "had the issue again. We call Nissan and they told us to tow it back to our shop, as of right now stay in the rental but will be towed back today." I called the Rochester dealership around 2:00pm to see if they had any updates but they were still waiting for the car to get towed back and they had no other information. There were no other warning or error messages prior to this happening on [XXX], 2024.

I can smell fuel inside my vehicle after my vehicle idles for 15-20 minutes. No visible leak on the ground, but fumes permeate my vehicle and have caused headaches to begin with my vehicle occupants and myself. I have noticed after driving and I park inside my garage, I can smell fuel as well, but no visible leak anywhere. The smell lasts for a good while after being parked, but eventually goes away. I made an appointment for December 22nd, 2023 to have it looked at, showed up Riverside Auto Mall of Marquette, MI and was turned away because if the vehicle isn't replicating what I am experiencing, they could not do anything about it because they don't know why its happening. I was told by the service manager to contact her if anyone began experiencing headaches. We did experience headaches at a later date this happened, had an appointment scheduled for April 1, 2024, and was called the same morning of the appointment to have it cancelled due to their "Nissan Technician" not being able to work on it since he was out of town. I was told I would receive a call back to reschedule, and to this day, May 20, 2024, I have not received a call. I have not made another appointment because I have a feeling I will be given the run around again, but I continue to smell fuel intermittently while idling. Not sure what else to do at this point because it is a leased vehicle.
Owned the car since 1/23. Within a few months car died on the interstate due to a hole in the fuel tank. Nissan repaired. Prior to that I took the car in because it always smells of gas. Especially when the car is running. You could smell inside and outside of cabin. People walking by noticed. Dealership couldn’t figure it out. Googled this myself and there are multiple complaints of the gas smell. On 5/2/24, I wasn’t able to start my car. Had it towed. Took Nissan one week to run diagnostics. On 5/9 they confirmed there was coolant in my oil and cylinders. Covered by warranty. They told me parts would be in this week but they wouldn’t be able to repair the car for another 2 to 3 weeks. Said they were down personnel.
The vehicle had a no-start case. It wouldn't catch while turning over. It tried, it had sufficient battery and all operations were done properly like putting break pedal all the way down. Let car sit, opened the door, shut it and hit some other stuff and it started fine. Other people online seem to report similar cases where just leaving the vehicle makes it start.
Twice while driving my Rogue it has gone into a limp mode. First time car was towed to Ted Russell Nissan and they found no code for problem ,an update was installed.

I have to take grandchildren to daycare and pick them up. Both times the problem occurred I had just dropped off 1 year old. My safety was impacted because of the amount of traffic in the hours of dropping off and picking them up. The only ones who have checked vehicle is the dealership.

On March 13, 2023 I purchased a new Crown Nissan Rogue. For the most part, the car has performed well up until this year when I have had issues with the Engine Malfunction light coming on. Specifically, I get the message:” Engine Malfunction. Power reduced, Service now”. The car then goes into a slow decline of power and the speed reduces significantly at which point I will pull over to a safe spot and turn off the engine. Typically, after waiting a few minutes, I am able to start car without the engine coming on and will proceed home. This is the third such incident of this occurring this year (January, February and now March). I brought the vehicle in for service in February and noted this dilemma. The service personnel did address the issue but could not find anything that they could attribute it to. This latest episode occurred on March 22, 2024. Again, I pulled over and turned off the ignition and called service personnel. After letting the vehicle sit a while, I again was able to start it without the Malfunction light coming on and proceeded home until I can bring it in for service today. I am at the point that I am beginning to feel uncomfortable driving the vehicle because this is the third such time that this has occurred. God forbid that I am out on the highway when this happens.

On [XXX], on our 2023 Rogue with only 9100 miles on it suffered complete engine failure while driving the highway. The car had been operating for about 10 minutes, and we had just onboarded the freeway entrance and after about a mile at normal highway speeds, with no warning, the engine started making loud knocking sounds and there was a immediate loss of motive power. This occurred during heavy traffic and was a close call with drivers behind the car. If the car had been in the left most or middle lanes of the highway it is likely the car would have not made it off the middle of the highway and it likely could have caused a severe chain reaction accident, and it could have been life threatening as it was during rush hour with heavy rush traffic and lots of large trucks. Since we were still in the right most lane we were able to roll onto an exit ramp where the engine stopped all together because there was no more forward momentum. We were not even able to pull off the exit lane completely putting the occupants at risk. We had our 3 year old in the car and the incident was very traumatic as the risk of being rear-ended during and after the failure was significant. Attempt to restart the car resulted in the engine attempting to but failing to turn over. Road side assistance came in about 55 minutes, but we fortunately had family come and take the 3 year old to safety so no longer at risk. The car was towed to a Nissan dealership for service. The service department stated they opened the pan on the engine and large and small pieces of metal were in the pan and just fell out. They said the engine suffered a total failure. We do not feel safe in this car any longer even if they repair it. This is the exact issue being investigated, NHTSA Action Number [XXX]: - Complete loss of motive power due to engine failure. Nissan knows about it yet they have not made the effort to recall the vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The 2023 Nissan Rogue we have as a lease with 9,000 miles on it. 10 minutes after driving it and going on the highway with in 1 minutes the engine abruptly started knocking and stuttering and immediate loss of motive power. Fortunately the car was in the left most lane and an exist was able to enter the exit ramp but the vehicle started sputtering and stalled and would not restart. Restart attempts resulted in engine stuttering and it the engine shutting off. We think this is the exact symptoms as described in PE23023 with these Nissan engine failures. Reporting since this should be recalled for safty and because we had a 3 year old child in the card and we fear that this could have caused risk of death by loss of motive power on the highway and if the car was in the fast or middle lanes could have resulted very high risk situation of a car with no power stuck on the highway in rush hour. I'm thankful my family is OK but this failure was a close call that could have caused a chain of accidents on the highway with possible loss of life. There were no warning indications displayed by the before the incident occurred, it was extremely sudden. After car stalled attempts to restart showed maintenance required and what appear to have been several unclear messages. battery charge was checked by tow truck and attempts to start with assisted power from additional battery made no change, the engine could not remain running it turned over and quickly sputtered and stalled and failed. The car is now at the dealership being looked at but we wanted to report this due to the severity of the issue and how it occurred, especially after reading that Nissan is aware of this particular issue as described in PE23023. I would recommend a recall as this is not a safe vehicle. Out family will no longer use this car ever again for our safety and the safety of our young child.
Purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue in May 2023 with less than 10 miles on it. Shortly after purchase myself and my family noticed the smell of gas fumes in the cabin, which I initially ignored. I took the car back to the dealership in August 2023 at 4,700 miles due to the noxious fumes/smell. The car’s PCV valve was replaced for the first time. I again took the vehicle into the dealership in December 2023 at 12,900 miles due to the extremely strong smell of gas fumes coming into the cabin but also radiating throughout my entire garage. These fumes burn my eyes, throat, make me nauseous, and cause headaches. My heated garage has an open flame heater and I became worried that the potentially uncombusted gas products leaking into the air could cause an explosion or fire. The dealership replaced my PCV hose a second time, but this did not solve the issue. I returned to dealership in February 2024 at 15,000 miles for persistent gas fumes in the cabin and radiating throughout my garage. There was nothing wrong with my PCV hose and the PCV hoses were on “back order”. Nothing was done to my car other than “wash off the engine bay to try to get rid of the smell”. Nissan was unable to resolve the issue or produce any viable solutions, they returned my car to me the next day and after driving it home from work and parking it in my garage, the noxious gas/odor was still strongly present and I was told by family that my clothes smell like gasoline/oil fumes. I am afraid for my health and safety while driving this vehicle. I do not feel that Nissan has adequately addressed this issue and continues to ignore it without producing viable solutions. It appears to me that there is likely a defect in the engineering/manufacturing of this vehicle and intrinsic faults within the engine and its components. I believe that if action is not taken by Nissan or governmental regulatory bodies, consumers will experience serious health and safety consequences.
This has been a big safety issue for my wife and 10 month old daughter. Randomly while driving on highway or in residential roads, our 2023 nissan rogue will start revving hard. The rpm shoots up to around 5000 and the engine starts to lose power resulting in rapid de-acceleration. As of recent, my wife would have to restart the car to go back to normal functioning mode. This also almost caused her accidents on multiple occasions. We contacted Nissan, opened a case, and they refused to repurchase it or replace it. We are stuck with this car hoping nothing bad happens.
I was driving on the interstate with heavy traffic with family in the car. The car engine suddenly lost power and suddenly started making a metal on metal banging noise. The check engine light didn't come on for a few minutes after but it was obvious something was wrong. We were able to get over to the side of the road a few feet out of traffic. We had it towed to the Nissan dealer. We were told it was an issue with the engine block/cylinder #2 failed. This is a 2023 3 cylinder Rogue that has been maintained properly. There was no warning at all. The engine light did not come on until well after the engine failed. We were told an "Nissan Investigator" has to come inspect our car??
Nissan installed plastic oil plugs which when reinstalled can fail. This despite the fact the entire oil pan is aluminum. This can occur after the 2 or 3rd oil change causing the car to lose the plug, overheat due to oil loss or have to be towed because plug falls out or becomes easily stripped. Many place such as Jiffy Lube will refuse to service the cars because they may require a tow to the dealer.
Cabin often smells like gasoline, seems like there is a leak somewhere. Dealer told me there is no fix, and that the vehicle is under "Engineering Review".
Vehicle is emitting a gas smell after it runs. Smells like gasoline.
There is a strong gasoline odor in and around the car after driving
When car is sitting idle I can smell gas inside the car. Took car to dealership and was told there was a whole in a hose and they would replace the hose. Hose has been replaced and fumes still come into car when idle. The cars was bought new with 117 miles on it. It now has 5072 miles on it. I have been contacting them for the last two months as it took about three weeks for the hose to come in. When I discussed with the dealership I could still smell gas I was told they have had this issue with several of these cars but the hose usually fixes the problem. The smell is so bad that it now makes me sick to my stomach. I tell them I here a rattle in the engine that was not there before. They say the rattle is no more than any other car on the lot. They have not offered to give me something to drive while they figure out the problem. But at this point I feel it is dangerous for me to be driving it. Even just the time sitting at a stop like I can smell fumes.
My New 2023 Nissan Rogue encountered a warning "Engine Malfunction Power reduced Service Now" after the car was driven 4600 miles in July 28th 2023. The car did not accelerate higher than 15 miles/ hr with the warning and it was difficult to change lanes while driving the vehicle to Nissan Service at Jeff Wyler Nissan, Eastgate, Ohio - 45103. The warning light went off after the car was restarted a couple of times and the technicians at Nissan service did not find any issue. The issue again resurfaced in 02 Dec 2023, and the car was not running higher than 15 miles/hr. The warning went off after the car was restarted a couple of times. Jeff Wyler Nissan Service again did not found any issue upon inspection. Reached out to Nissan Motors Customer Service and they did'nt give any solution and asked me to report the issue to the dealer if the issue resurfaces again. My family of 3 have a single car and I feel unsafe to drive this car with a 22 month old infant. When the issue occurs it becomes very risky and unsafe to even change lanes as the car does not move more than 15 miles an hour. Both the times when this issue occurred, huge traffic jam is caused on the road, at the back of my car since the car doe not accelerate and I am subjected to frequent honking. I feel afraid if this incident happens in the Interstate highway then this can cause a life risk for me and my family.
My car was purchased in June 2023 and currently has 2,785 miles. I turned my car on and the engine light came on. As I was driving, it was hard to accelerate and my car was not driving properly. I received an email from Nissan Connect stating: Hi [XXX] , Your Rogue's engine may have an emission control system malfunction. If the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is blinking, you may have a misfire or other component malfunction. To reduce or avoid emission control system damage: Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH (72 km/h). Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration. Avoid steep uphill grades. If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed. I took my car to the Nissan dealer, and they said the engine failed. They don’t know how long it will take to repair. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle independently decelerated. The contact stated that there was traffic behind, and the vehicle decelerated to 10 MPH. The contact stated that drivers were honking their horns for her to speed up. The check engine warning light and a message stated, “Do Not Drive” was displayed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed EGR module. The contact was informed that the EGR module needed to be replaced and reprogrammed. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 5,169.

I SMELL A GAS ODOR INSIDE OF MY CLOSE GARAGE AND INSIDE THE CABIN OF MY VEHICLE. I OBSERVED THIS SMELL TODAY. MY VEHICLE 5400 MILES ON IT.
As I was accelerating to merge onto the toll way from 45 mph to 70 mph, I switched to sports mode and reached almost 74 mph. At that point white smoke started coming from the exhaust and the engine started to severely knock. After a few minutes the check engine, oil and high temperature lights came on, on the dash. The vehicle indicated that I pull over and stopped driving. After towing into the dealership, I was told the engine and turbo system had to be changed. After 2 business days I was informed the engine is on back order and I have been on a loaner for a month as of this report. I escalated the issue to Nissan but I have not got any resolution yet. I drove the vehicle for around 12000 miles for since April this year. Glad it is still under warranty. I asked for a replacement vehicle but nissan said it is not an option and I will have to deal with the base model loaner which is not what I purchased(SV with all upgrades). Any assistance to resolve my situation would be greatly appreciated.
Vehicle just turned 11,000 miles. As I was accelerating up a hill, the RPM’s were extremely high and then I heard an awful noise in the engine. The car immediately shut down and overheated. It was determined the turbo chip blew apart causing catastrophic damage to the engine. I ended up needing to hire a lemon law attorney and Nissan bought the vehicle back from me. Nissan refused to compensate me for any inconveniences I incurred during the time. I had to pay out of pocket for a tow truck to come get the vehicle off the road because I was stuck on a dangerous corner and the police officers said the car needed to be moved ASAP. I had a trip planned with the vehicle in 2 weeks and ended up having to buy plane tickets instead because the loaner vehicle I had to fight the dealership for said the loaner couldn’t leave New York State. It took me a week to fight the dealership to give me a loaner vehicle. Nissan corporate was terrible to deal with. When I went to turn the vehicle in for the buy back process, the dealership told me they are up to 4 vehicles with the same issue now. It’s the new engine in the 2023 Nissans. This needs to be looked into and Nissan needs to be held accountable.
I was stop at a light and I turned off the radio is here when I noticed my engine shut off. I had to place the vehicle on park to start the vehicle again, this has happen twice already. I am concerned with this issue.

I bought my first brand new 2023 Nissan Rogue SV Oct 29th 2022. I noticed a weird acceleration at times. Nissan said nothing wrong. Then I believe in spring time.. maybe April that I started noticing my garage smell of gas, the inside of car smells like gas. Nissan fixes it and said part is on backorder but they were going to use a temporary fix that may or may not hold up. October 30 2023 I brought it back in to have same issued fixed. Week of Nov 27 2023 my garage smelt the worst it has ever smelt. Like gas was spilled all over. It was that strong. Inside of car smelt of gas. I had a headache all week. My son did for 3 days. Id come out of work and I could smell the gas before I even got to my vehicle that has been sitting outside all day. I called Burnsville Nissan and asked for another appt. Went today and said couldn't smell it but replaced tube (same as other 2 times) it's a known problem with 2021-23 Nissan Rogues. I see there are plenty of lawsuits and Nissan is well aware and has been aware of this issue. This issue will cause engine failure. It's unsafe. I have 2 young kids. I'm a single mom. What if my engine fails on a freeway out of nowhere with my kids. This is unacceptable for Nissan and needs to be addressed.
Purchased brand new in January of 2023, engine problems, engine knocks while driving or idle, hesitates when accelerating. stalling when driving, heavy gas smell, bad plastic oil pan, breaks during oil change, cause oil leaks, and engine failure. Vehicle vibrates when braking, bad lower fuel pump.
Severe Oil dilution with gasoline and heavy gas smell.
At about 17900 miles on my 2023 Rogue I got a engine malfunction warning the vehicle speed was reduced to 10pm on the freeway. Luckily I was able to pull over immediately. I had it towed to the Nissan dealer. They informed me it was a foot pedal issue and said the car was fixed. I drove it home fine however the following day the vehicle engine started to smoke and there was smoke coming out of the exhaust. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership and it needs a new engine and turbo. They are trying not to assume responsibility saying lack of maintenance. I had the full service done literally 3 weeks before the incident. There seems to be several people dealing with the same issue.
There is a strong smell of gas/exhaust fumes in the vehicle when it's running. The smell is absolutely nauseating. I've been told that at this point Nissan is aware of the issue and there is no fix as of yet. Now I'm stuck driving a brand new car that is making me and my family ill.
Cabin smells strongly of gasoline. Gives us major headaches and sick feeling when inside car. Dealer has car now, says smell is strong and oil dipstick smells of gasoline. No warning of problem. Car is new, under 3000 miles.
Random and recurring Warning light error ‘Engine Malfunction Reduced Power Service Now’ corresponding with reduced acceleration while actively driving. It has been attributed to a Turbo engine malfunction
On July 21,2023 while driving at highway speeds the engine started to sputter. Multiple engine failure lights came on. The engine died and I had 1-2 seconds to get the vehicle out of the highway onto the shoulder. I was told the by the dealer that part of the fuel injector may have come loose and damaged the cylinder. The vehicle had only 562 miles on it. I do not have any paperwork on it because almost 2 months later the car is still at the dealer. Today I was informed the new engine they installed also failed because of a bad cylinder.
While driving down the highway the engine started to shake violently. Barely got the vehicle pulled over before the engine locked up tight. Had we not been in the right line and close to the soft shoulder, the vehicle could have locked up and stopped in the middle of the highway with cars doing 70mph behind us. Vehicle was towed to dealer and main bearing/rod bearing material was found in the oil and oil filter. In the time the vehicle has been in the dealer waiting for a new engine to come off back order, 2 more of the same year make, model and engine configuration has come into the dealer with the same problem. This is information obtain from the dealer. Nissan is not telling the dealer the cause of the problem.

After driving my 2023 Nissan Rogue for approximately 1.5 months (1700 miles) I started smelling a gas odor inside the cabin while driving and while parked. The smell is causing my eyes and throat to burn and occasional nausea. While parked in my garage the smell becomes so overwhelming that I must remove the vehicle from the garage to "air out" for a few hours. Since I have an attached garage the smell is also permeating the house. My husband checked the oil dipstick and found it to have a very strong gasoline odor. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer. I was told the smell is normal since this is a new turbo engine, it should be expected. I have contacted Nissan corporate regarding a fix or buyback and was told that I do not qualify. I have concerns regarding my health due to long term exposure to VOCs. I have safety concerns related to VOCs accumulating in my garage. I have mechanical concerns do to the inadequate venting of gasoline and gasoline in my oil. Will this cause the engine and other parts to fail?
On May 10, 2023 my 2023 Nissan Rogue with 16,633 miles on it suffered an engine malfunction and completely stalled unexpectedly on an off-ramp of State Route 28. There were no warning lights or indicators that flashed. My car would not restart. If this would have happened minutes if not seconds sooner while I was on the highway, no vehicle behind me would have been able to stop and someone would have been seriously injured. It was later determined the engine completely seized due to metal shavings being that were found in it. The engine was replaced under warranty at a dealership but given the newness of my car and the fact that I drive more miles to work and back than most people, I worry that this could happen to other 2023 Nissan Rogues that have not been driven that much. A cause was never relayed to me as to what happened. I asked for various information from the dealership in regards to diagnostic reports, daily work logs and so on. I received only a 3 page invoice with no listing of specific diagnostics that were completed on my car. I am driving a car that could suffer the same malfunction and the dealership did not seem the least bit concerned about the potentional safety hazard this situation could have created. I was told by the dealership that the new technology had not been fully tested and this was a risk of buying a brand new car. I understand minor issues with a new car but metal shavings in an engine is not minor. I am not sure if the engine is available for inspection.
When driving in stop and go traffic, the cabin of my Nissan Rogue gets a strong smell of fuel. After driving it, I park in my garage and the entire garage smells like gasoline as well. There is no other source for this smell in my garage. I have taken it to the dealership looking for a gasoline leak and they said it is not leaking, yet I smell gasoline while driving as well as when it is parked inside the garage and outside in parking lots.
The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 MPH, the message "Engine Failure, No Power, Service Immediately" was displayed and the vehicle stalled. Moments later, the vehicle restarted, and the vehicle operated normally. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the forward distance sensor had failed which caused the vehicle to stall and the sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 4,200. The consumer stated the dealer will not inform her if the part is available.

Friday, March 24, 2023 AM: Returned to parked Rogue after an 1.25 hr appt and found the cabin reeking of a fuel smell. No fuel leaks under vehicle to explain smell. Smell dissipated some after driving for 10 mins at low speeds with outside air circulation on. Smell fully left cabin while driving at highway speeds for 15 mins with outside air circulation on. Sunday, March 26, 2023 AM: Returned to parked Rogue after 2 hr Church to find cabin filled with a fuel smell. Again, no leaks noted under vehicle. Drive home decreased the smell at highway speeds with outside air circulation on, but this was after the entire family had already become ill from the smell while driving through town at lower speeds. Stopped at parent's house briefly and left engine running; husband had to turn engine off and roll windows down, as the fuel smell entering the cabin became really strong and was making husband and son ill again. Noted the fuel smell emanating from all around the vehicle for several hours after getting home, with the strongest smells coming from the engine area. Monday, March 27, 2023 AM: Brought vehicle back to dealership, 70+ mile drive, to have their service center look at it due to health and safety concerns. No fuel smell detected when entered vehicle before journey, drove down with recirculated air on, and only detected a faint fuel smell coming from the engine compartment upon arrival at service center. Performed a visual inspection, specific fuel & emissions system exam, complete high pressure fuel system test, fuel leak/odor pinpoint diagnostic. No failed or defective components found. They were "unable to verify the customer's concern of fuel odor at this time." Mfg service bulletin found on issue; no repair options yet. Fuel smell now constant, whether parked or driven. Recirculate air only used. Can't open windows without smell entering. Continued concern for health/safety.
While attempting to accelerate up a hill the vehicle's engine rapidly increased RPM to 3500 and then down to 2000 and back up to 3500 repeatedly with no increase in speed or change of pressure on the gas pedal. Also, from a stopped position at a red light, the vehicle would shudder/shake when the tachometer reported between 1500 and 2000 RPM, while attempting to accelerate. Finally when shifting from reverse to drive, the vehicle would shake/shudder while the RPM would increase to 4000 all while the car did not accelerate at all, and with no increase in pressure on the gas pedal.
My 4.5 month old Rogue, with a little over 3000 miles on it, stopped dead from at 55 mph on a highway at night. The battery started but the engine would not engage or start. At the start of the drive the fuel gauge registered about 1/2 tank, but after driving only a relatively short distance, it suddenly went to just above the 'red warning zone' and showed about 157 driving miles left in the tank. I believe that the tank was actually empty and the gauge was faulty, because on a hunch the tow guy added some gas and the car started! I was in danger because I was stranded in the left lane of a highway at night and even with my hazard lights on, cars were barely missing me. One could easily have rammed into me - especially waiting over 2 hours for a tow with my hazars starting to dim - causing injury or even death. The dealer service dept was not able to spot the problem (or reproduce it), and because the computer did not show a code said they had nothing to repair! Upon picking up the car and refilling the tank, the gauge only registered 1/2 a tank, so I scheduled service to replace the fuel gauge. I hope this is the proper fix, but the service dept can't vouch for that. When it went dead, the dash said "engine malfunction". I am terrified of driving this car at night or on a highway!!
Within a week of driving the vehicle, I began to notice a strong gasoline smell when I parked the car. The issue became even more evident when I parked the car in my garage, as the garage would quickly fill with the unmistakable odor of gasoline. The smell is so persistent that it remains in the garage even the following morning. Due to concerns about the accumulation of gas fumes and the potential risk of ignition, I have resorted to parking the car outside. However, the issue extends beyond just parking; when I am stuck in traffic or idling, the gas fumes infiltrate the cabin of the vehicle, producing a strong and overpowering odor. The intensity of the fumes is such that it induces feelings of nausea, and I am deeply concerned about the health and safety implications for both me and my family. Despite being aware of the severity of the situation, I am left with limited options as I do not have an alternative vehicle to use for transportation. In an effort to address this matter, I contacted both the Nissan Dealership where I purchased the vehicle and Nissan Consumer Affairs. Disappointingly, both parties have informed me that there is nothing they can do at this time and that I must wait. I found it particularly disingenuous when the representative from Consumer Affairs referred to the issue as merely a "foul odor," downplaying the seriousness of the matter. I want to emphasize that this is not just a foul odor; it is a clear and hazardous smell of gasoline. I am reporting this issue to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to document my experience, raise awareness of the safety risks, and seek assistance in finding a resolution. The presence of gasoline fumes in and around the vehicle is alarming, and I believe immediate action is necessary to address this matter and ensure the safety of all drivers and passengers of the 2023 Nissan Rogue.
The smell of gas fumes was inside and outside of the car. I took a CO2 blood test and the CO2 levels came back high. The dealership said a recall was coming out soon. The vehicle supposedly was looked over by the dealership service manager. This began shortly after I bought the vehicle. Didn’t know it was an issue until I saw a lawsuit against the company regarding this matter.
After driving the inside cabin smells like fuel along motor area and around front of car. No noticeable leaks. Dealer said no noticeable leaks, called Nissan Tech line, tech line had them check a few specific areas believe some pressurized fuel lines. Service manager said it is a known issue with no current fix although Nissan engineers are working on it. Both service manager and service advisor recommended calling Nissan of North America. Issue started Feb 2023. Motor air filter smells like gas along with the oil in the motor when smelled from dipstick.
Strong smell of gasoline in our garage, coming from the 2023 Nissan Rogue everytime we park the car. Fumes/vapors fill the garage, and then into the house.
After driving the car and parking it in the garage we notice a "raw gasoline" smell. If we are driving and idle at a stop sign the heater (heating the interior) picks up the gasoline smell and the fumes come inside the car. We have to open the windows to air it out once moving. The problem appears to be getting worse, meaning the smell is getting stronger. We have contacted Nissan and they gave me a case number #48234302, but no progress. The dealer says Nissan is working on the issue, but there is no fix. I have call both Nissan and the dealer since 1-18-2023, but for the most part no one will respond anymore. We find the smell a health concern.
SMELLS strongly of GAS. Location of smell is strongest on driver side closest to windshield under the hood. Vehicle is currently with 2280 miles. Purchased in December of 2022. Smell began mid January 2023 with mileage approximately at 1700.
After 3000 miles on my car I noticed a gasoline smell in my garage after driving it. Now I have 5000 miles and the gasoline smell is so strong I have to park it outside my garage since my garage is attached to my house and the smell enters my house and makes me feel nauseous and gives me a headache. I have made an appointment with 2 Nissan dealers who state it is a known problem but there is nothing they can do about it at this time and are waiting to hear from Nissan. There are no warning lights on in my car.
Strong smell of raw gasoline coming from the front of the vehicle after driving and while driving. If parked in garage entire garage has strong odor that penetrates into attached house. Very hazardous to health and emissions.
On November 12, 2022, I purchased a brand new Nissan Rogue 2023. Within a few weeks of driving this brand new car, the check engine light came on. A few days after the check engine light appeared, the car almost shut down while I was making a left turn at a light. I called the Nissan dealership where I purchased the car and they told me to bring the car in for inspection. While driving on the interstate highway to get to the dealership, the check engine light changed to "Engine malfunction." Immediately, the car stopped functioning. The gas pedal became flat, and I could not get the car to accelerate no matter how hard I tried. The vehicle essentially stopped in the middle of the highway with me and my two children in it. This incident posed a significant risk to me and my children, as well as to other motorists in that we could have been involved in a major car accident. I called the police and had the car towed to the dealership. The dealership stated that the signal between the pedal and the engine, which cause the car to accelerate was faulty. They said the defect has been repaired, but I will never drive that car again. After this incident, I conducted a little bit of research and I found out that consumers have been experiencing similar problems, dating back to the 2016 model (all of this information is located on google). what makes the situation even worse is that Nissan has, on multiple occasions refused to reimburse my $35,000. I am now paying the price for something that is not my fault. Buyers be aware!
Known issue, fuel smell inside cabin after initial start up and after parking in garage. Fuel/exhaust smells are persistent while initially driving off as well, significant safety risk as we are not certain where this is emanating (or originating) from. This is a health hazard and could potentially lead to engine fire, etc.
There is a constant strong fuel odor coming from the car, especially when it is parked inside the garage. It is most noticeable under the front hood as well as inside the cabin. The car has been inspected by the Nissan dealer and they have not found any leaks. They did confirm that this is a known concern, which is under engineering review and the dealership is working with a specialist to address this. They have also informed us the smell is caused by colder temperatures as more fuel needs to be injected than normal and thus causing the strong odor. However, the smell is constant even in worm temperatures. Also, a Nissan engineer has confirmed that this is caused by a design flaw, which only appears on cars with a turbo.
The Engine Malfunction power Reduced just pop up, and even i push the accelerator pedal to the floor, it almost dont run, I almost stuck in the center of the Traffic Crossing.
After about two months of driving our 2023 Nissan Rogue SV, a fuel odor emerged from the car. The odor is detected constantly in the car's interior and exterior. The fuel odor is so intense that we are concerned about the safety of parking the vehicle in our garage; we must park it outside. Due to the intensity of the fuel odor, we have purchased a fire extinguisher, as we are afraid of a car fire in the event of an accident/collision. Additionally, we are very concerned about our exposure to the gas fumes, and the health risk it may be causing. The dealership we bought the vehicle from evaluated the car, and informed us that the issue was that gas was sprayed accidentally on the hood liner during production. The dealership replaced the hood liner; however, upon returning the vehicle home the same day, the fuel odor persisted with the same intensity, and it did not fix the problem. The problem occurs after driving the vehicle, and the technician, who did the repair, must not have driven the vehicle.
First issue: After starting the vehicle there can be a smell of gasoline in the passenger cabin for a little bit. Also after parking vehicle in garage and turning off engine, the garage smells of gas and remains overnight, it is not exhaust fumes. Sometimes it seems to be worse after driving in reverse. There is no sign of a liquid leak on the undercarriage or on the floor. Happens whether the gas tank is full or near empty. Vehicle is only 2 months since purchase. Second issue: The rear of the vehicle jerks sideways, usually toward the passenger side, when going over pavement joints, cracks or bumps. It is worse at highway speeds, but happens around town also. The rear of the vehicle doesn't seem to track straight when bumped. Took the vehicle to the dealer to check alignment and they said it was within specification and made no adjustments. The tire inflation is proper per the door jam. On some roads in bad weather it is a very uncomfortable feeling and feels like loss of control.
Strong gas odor in cabin of vehicle emanating from air cleaner housing. Also strong gas smell outside of vehicle after and while driving. Smell is very strong and causes dizziness, nausea and headaches.
