What 2011 Nissan Rogue owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
On interstate, the vehicle felt like it had a "float" feel and occasional shimmy while driving. Upon parking in town, stranger identified vehicle's driver-side rear wheel was not straight. Observation showed ground-contacting point of tire was angled outward from car. Diagnosis by both Nissan dealership and subsequent independent mechanic was extreme rust of undercarriage causing upper control arm to rust through and rot of the underside of car to the point of being "not salvageable" and non-fixable. This meant the rear wheel was wobbling while driving on the interstate and could have completely let go. This vehicle has been consistently maintained as a daily-driver and at only 59k miles, it was mentioned several times that the level of rust was extraordinary.
My vehicle gets water on the driver's side floor, up to an inch and causes electrical issues. Nissan stated they fixed the issue but did not deal my vehicle and it's not their problem after the first fix. Water is there when driving, parked or any time the road is wet or raining.
When opening the driver side door in below freezing temperatures, the mechanism used to open the latch freezes and falls out of the latch device. This causes the door to be inoperable from the inside and the outside which can be a safety hazard in an emergency situation.
