Bought a 2022 Nissan Rouge on 9/2024 from Car Dealer. In November 2024, the car would not start. Jump start worked so we thought it might be battery related so bought a New Battery. AND Took it back to the dealer in the same month November 2024 as i was worried about the car shutting down in the middle of the highway and can't restart. DANGEROUS. The Car Dealer did an inspection(or so they said) and said no problems with the car but they would not give me a printout to confirm. Said that their printer and email was not working. Fast forward, May 2025, while DRIVING the car on [XXX] , it started shaking and shut off. . This time, it would not RESTART. Had it jump started several times but NOTHING worked. SO I Had to tow the 2022 Nissan Rouge from there to the Nissan Dealer Servicing (Springfield, NJ) THEN I found out about the recalls and about the electrical problems and with THE ROUGE NOT STARTING. AND As per Nissan Servicing center in Springfield, NJ, The engine is completely shot and needs to be replaced. Total cost $14000. AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT so i had it towed back to my driveway where it has been sitting BECAUSE THE SUV IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL and i do not have $14000 to pay for a new engine. I bought the Nissan Rouge for $18000 only 8 months ago and have only added $5000 miles since and have a active car loan. ALSO THE VEHICLE DID NOT GIVE ANY TYPE OF WARNING SIGNAL/MESSAGES/NOTIFICATION BEFORE SHUTTING DOWN COMPLETELY before shutting off. I have INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving and accelerating from 60 to 70mph the engine chugged, lost power. I was thankfully able to get to the side of the road safely and my child was not in the vehicle. As soon as I got it to the side of the road the engine emissions malfunction, the low oil pressure and both safe indicator lights for the rear and front crash came on. A message popped up stating: emissions malfunction power reduced service immediately. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership. As on currently, almost a week later, the dealership still does not know what happened.
Driving vehicle around 60 mph. Heard load knocking noise coming from engine then vehicle instantly lost power. Engine reduced power came across display and it had virtually no power to get to side of road. I called dealer and I they said I would have to pay to tow it there and pay to diagnose engine problem because I was out of warranty. Got vehicle towed back to my house by myself. Load knocking noise heard from engine.
Complete engine failure. My wife broke down on the side of the road. Was told it was a Turbo Charger failure that then allowed coolant to get into the engine. Was further told it needs a new Turbo Charger Assembly as well as various other parts for the engine that were damaged as a result. Happened with only 39k miles on the vehicle.
Related to PE23-023. 2022 Nissan Rogue with 77,000 miles first lost heating ability and then would stall and not start. Problem was diagnosed by an ASE Certified shop/tech. Diagnostic inspection revealed 2 quarts of coolant missing and contamination in the cylinders. To start the recommendation was to replace the EGR Cooler and Turbo, after reviewing similar complaints, I have chosen not to do the repairs as it doesn't sounds like it will fix the root cause and I am not inclined to replace the motor, turbo, Egr etc only for this to occur again. I plan to trade out of this vehicle at a significant financial loss and replace it to ensure the safety of my family. I would like to be a part of the investigation, if in the future Nissan is held accountable for this engineering failure I may be able to recoup some of my financial hardship.
1) egr pressure sensor 2) crash senors front/rear, reduced power, lack acceleration, service engine 3)yes, ABC Nissan 4)no 5)no, October of 2024. The part is on back order as of today still unavailable.
Our vehicle stalled once while idle at an ATM. Upon restart we brought it to our local mechanic for investigation, they diagnosed the issue as a Turbo Sensor problem costing about $700. They recommended bringing it to Nissan for further review rather than charge us for the repair. We picked up the vehicle the next day and brought it to our local Nissan dealership where they confirmed it was in face the turbo causing the issue. After discovering this and quoting us a repair of $7,200 they did a pressure test overnight only to discover there was coolant leaking into the engine and that a new block will now need to be installed for the vehicle to work. The new cost is $11,500 to repair. The vehicle is a 2022 Nissan Rogue that we are the only owners with regular maintenance. When we dropped off the vehicle at both locations there was no check engine light on and there were no signs of engine failure. The Sales Manager went to check the vehicle and confirmed the engine no longer works.
Engine: Ever since purchasing my rogue i had to take it to the dealership 3 separate times for engine mounts to be replaced due to shaking when car is idle. Electrical: Camera system stops working all of a sudden at 50k miles and unable to use reverse camera and will not work when clicking on camera button. This has been a known issue affecting personal vehicles and being discussed all online.
I was driving and began hearing knocking sounds from under the hood. The car began dragging, so I was afraid to go at any speed over 25 or 30. I was almost home and it was night, so I resolved to go to the mechanic by my house the next morning. When I set out to go to the repair shop, the car was knocking louder, and I did not go more than a mile before the car stalled at a stoplight. It shuddered and then cut off. I tried to restart it, but it kept coming on and going off right after. I was in the turning lane, and had on my hazard lights, but several motorists still came up close behind me and honked their horns for me to move. This happened about a dozen times before the tow truck arrived. One man came up beside me, yelling and making gestures (I kept my window up and ignored him). I called AAA and was towed about a mile to the shop. The shop owner checked the oil to see if I had run out of oil - I had not. He then said to have it towed to Nissan because it was under warranty and the “engine is done.” He said that due to the sounds he heard coming from the engine. Days later (it was Saturday, and Nissan was not open Saturday or Sunday) I had it towed to Nissan and they have yet to diagnose the problem, after several days.
See attached document for complaint
Engine light came on car went into limp mode and was slow to accelerate.
I have had significant problems with this car. Within the first month, I had to replace the battery. In September 2024 the car went from 70 mph to 40 mph with no warning and then the engine malfunction lights came on. It was supposedly fixed by Jeff Wyler Nissan Colerain. In October of 2024 the exact same thing occurred. We went from 70 mph to 40 mph and were stranded for hours yet again. Jeff Wyler Nissan Eastgate supposedly fixed the problem this time with new electrical components. Most recently, in December of 2024, the exact thing occurred AGAIN. We went from 70 to 40 and had to have the car towed for the third time in three months and the fourth time in 2 years. It is currently at Jeff Wyler Eastgate again - supposedly waiting on a temperature component - which they think is the engine problem. All of these incidences occurred on a highway and could have had devastating consequences.

On December 14. 2024 at approximately 8:45pm, as I was going up hill, my RPMS shot up to 5,000 RPMs and the rogue began to decelerate. After the RPMs dropped, Engine Malfunction, Speeds Reduced appeared on the dashboard. I found a location to stop off the highway. When I popped the hood, there was oil everywhere, the dipstick had shot out and oil was all over the hood, and the car had a strong pungent smell like burnt gun powder from the exhaust. The car will not start as the engine has blown. Mileage at the time is 38,963. Prior to this, the Check engine light would come on intermittently. It came on again at approximately 8:40pm as I was driving a 28 mile drive home. Since it’s the weekend, I will be calling Nissan Monday morning.
3/25/2023 784 miles and 12 days after purchasing the vehicle The throttle got stuck, cruise was on but not activated, was going 100mgh, hit the brakes, slowed the speed, every time I took my foot off the brake, I was doing 90-100mph. I hit the brakes 5-7 times to try to cancel the cruise even though it was was set. It said "Activate" so it was not on. Then after hitting the brakes repeatedly, I heard a loud kerplunk (metal on metal) sound in the engine behind the brake pedal, and it shut off and drove normally afterwards. 3/30/2023 I accelerated to get on I35 and RPM stuck at 3200 and would not shift in sport mode; I changed to Standard mode and the RPMs dropped to 2000-2100; the engine revved up loud in sport mode. Female Service Manager from Burleson Nissan was in the car at the time of the event. This has happened 3 more times since owning this vehicle. At the advice of my lemon law attorney, I am reporting them separately.
Engine failure at 38,000 miles. Started with a Loss of proper acceleration. Stalled out at stop lights. Failure to start. Vapors coming out of exhaust. Getting too hot. And overheating. These symptoms lasted 2 days before check engine light came on. Leaving me stopped in heavy traffic a few times. And unable to accelerate when I needed to. Dealership is putting in a new engine. Engine is under warranty. However I do not feel safe. Also the gears have slipped out of automatic drive and into 1st gear sporadically while driving. Forcing me to pull over and put the car in park turn off the engine and back on before putting it back in drive to proceed. (I do not know how to drive standard or use my paddles.) This has happened about 4 times since owning the vehicle.
Car engine light came on and the vehicle automatically slowed itself down to 20 mph as I was in a 45 mph zone, with multiple traffic behind me. No warning!! A hazard sign lit and the MIL lit up, saying there is an emissions control system malfunction and to immediately take the car to a repair station. NissanConnect also sent me a text at 5:12 Saturday night, all repair stations closed. This was very dangerous and the system should not have taken over complete control of the car at that very instant, leaving me completely unable to control the car. It was out of the blue, and I’m still shaking.
My 2022 Nissan Rouge S model began experiencing a strong gas smell inside the vehicle. Upon further inspection of the oil dipstick it smells heavily of gas. It has been to the dealership twice with absolutely no help or answers. It has also caused my engine oil levels to rise. I am concerned not only from a monetary stand point but more importantly from a safety standpoint i.e. engine stalls, fires etc.
CVT Low Power light came on 9/10/24. I had it at the dealer within 15 mins. On 9/12/24 I was told I need a new engine. The dealer refused to give details to me and extended the warranty on 9/16/24 as to how/what the exact issue was. The extended warranty closed the case because of this. The dealer told me they declined it and refused to repair it. He suggested that since the car is drivable, I could take it. I spoke with the extended warranty myself to see why. They stated they didn't deny it but closed it because the dealer needed to demonstrate what was wrong with the engine. The advisor eventually told me that all 3 cylinders had low compression. I requested they contact the extended warranty company and have them come again and they demonstrate that to the inspector. On 9/23/24 a request was made for another inspector to check my vehicle. 9/27/24 I called the extended warranty company to see if there was a report from the new inspector. They explained that the dealer showed them the low compression and the next step would be to break the engine down to find the source of the problem because it may not need an entire engine. I made it to the dealership a few hours later to extend my rental and get an update from the advisor. He told me the warranty company was still refusing to do the work. He suggested that since the car was drivable, I should take my vehicle. His only suggestion was to drop the oil pan and see if any metal fell out. This would've been $170-$200. I asked if that would resolve the issues with my vehicle. He stated not necessarily. On 9/27/24 around 4 PM, I requested to have my car moved to the front of the dealership because I had a tow truck on the way. He refused to have the vehicle moved. In the close-out ticket, he stated that the warranty company and customer denied repairs. which is false. No lights/messages ever came on. When I'd bring it for a service, I'd explain it was loud and vibrating. They'd always tell me everything was fine.
I recently experienced “safe mode” in my 2022 Nissan Rogue while driving on the highway at 80mph. My car suddenly lost power and would not accelerate or brake. I had to have my vehicle towed off the side of the highway as it was not drivable. My car is currently under diagnostic at Nissan where they are unable to reproduce the error codes. They notified me of $4,000 in repairs that would be covered by Nissan but they are unsure that will fix the problem. My car is knocking while driving, vibrating upon attempt of acceleration and shuttering at idle.
I purchased my 22 Rogue Feb 22 brand new. First Issue: January 2023(2600 miles), engine oil drain pan had to be replaced. Apparently, it broke during oil change at dealership. I've heard others complain about the same thing. Second issue, 6500 miles (June 2024): *suv begun driving weird. While driving the vehicle jerks, shudders, and acts like it is going to lose power. Losing power / shuddering while driving can be a danger to myself or others driving around me if suv unexpectedly reduces in speed. This happens during both high and low speeds. *Suv also stalls when trying to accelerate from a complete stop. Not sure if this was related to the software update (recall) I done at the dealership June 24, but issue 2 started immediately afterwards. Suv was taken to dealership when I started experiencing issue 2. Dealership had vehicle for 2 weeks, but return vehicle and said nothing was wrong. They said the Nissan Engineer that came out found no issues as well. They did mention the Turbo lagging, but sd that's normal. Fast forward, 6 weeks later (Aug 24), returned suv to dealership because performance is worse AND now engine light is on. Dealership advised light is bcz fuel pump needs to be replaced, but stated different than the current fuel pump recall on some 22 Rogues. How is this possible? Based on my mileage, my car is still nearly brand new. Vehicle is at dealership now pending repairs.

While driving engine began to overheat and lose power. And the vehicle wouldn't hold coolant. Took to mechanic
The problem started 3 months after purchase. It has a very loud noise that comes from the engine i think. It has been inspected by two different dealerships. Both insisted the noise was normal. After going more than 10 times to the dealership where i purchased my Rogue, i called nissan directly and open an investigation. Nissan sent an engineer and he said that the noise was weird but he didnt know what was going on. He also said that he was going to see if he could get me a discount for a new car. But nissan said no. I have a case number with nissan in case this is needed. This has been an issue that has been going on for two years now. Two years!! Then last month or so the check engine has been turning on and off. Today I went to make the inspection and the Rogue did not pass. And they told me the engine has fuel. After going to the inspection place the suv stopped working. It did not start. Had to call the dealership and I talked to person that has been checking the suv for the last two years and he said to take it to them. And I had to tow my Rogue to the dealership. It has been a very stressful experience and no one seems to care about this issue. My health and my safety is on the line. I don’t know what else to do or who to talk to. I hope you guys help. Thank you.
Engine failed suddenly while driving down the road with only 80,000 miles on the engine and it being only 2 years old. Was a sudden loss of power on a 70mph highway that suddenly decreased my speed out of nowhere
Engine started misfiring and when stopped at red light the engine began making a knocking noise.
Vehicle started shaking and making noise. Engine light came on and within 30 seconds car went dead. I’m an elderly person traveling with wife and grandchildren. On highway at 70 mph. 21,000 miles. Has been towed to dealer. No diagnosis yet. Third day moving slow. Very disappointed and scared.
Driving on a local freeway at the state limit 70 MPH. I passed an 18-wheeler and proceeded to enter the right lane after passing the truck. Once in the right lane the power reduced/engine malfunction light/ service light appeared. This was the first engine lights to appear since owning the vehicle with 12000 miles on it. My rate of speed was dramatically reduced causing the 18 wheeler I had just passed to slam on their brakes and forcing me off the road to avoid an all-out collision. Vehicle was towed to dealership for repair. I was told a seal failed on the water control valve causing the engine malfunction. The seal was replaced and vehicle was returned to me. On the way home from the dealership, after the water control valve repair, the vehicle stalled entering a highway in the center lane! For the second time in less than a month, my life and unsuspecting other travellers' lives were placed in danger due to the malfunctioning vehicle/engine. I was able to put the vehicle in park and restart the vehicle and make it home. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer where it sits.
The car engine started knocking then quit running while I was driving down the freeway. The car only has 17,000 miles. It was towed to the dealer and determined the engine siezed.
