What owners say
Attempted to remote start several and car didn't start. Previous remote starts worked every time. Entered car and when I closed door back window blow out.
2023 Nissan Rogue with 26,527 miles and OEM Bridgestone Alenza Sport A/S tires. Sidewall of passenger side rear tire has a bulge in the side wall. Noticed this after having the car serviced at the dealer. Coincidentally, the front tire blew today while driving.
The sunroof exploded while on the expressway going 75mph. At first after hearing the loud explosion, I thought it was a blowout tire. Almost got hit by two cars as I was pulling over .I took the car to the Nissan dealership and I was told I would have to leave the car there while they contact Nissan and send them pictures.
I entered the 2023 Nissan Rogue around [XXX] on St. Simons Island GA, on [XXX] with my granddaughter. Upon shutting the doors, the rear hatchback window exploded into pieces and blew out. I had not left the parking place or cranked the car. The glass pieces were all over the road and on the inside of my car. The police were called and a report was filed. How was my safety put at risk? Besides being shocked and traumatized at what sounded like a gunshot, I am now concerned about driving this car again with a new rear window because I fear it could happen again at any time. I am also suffering from a form of PTSD with super loud noise. (I jumped off my yoga mat when someone dropped a metal cup that made a very loud noise during our practice.) I asked the dealership why it happened and I called the Nissan Customer Service Center and have yet to find out why this has happened. My own research has indicated that this problem has occurred in many 2023 Nissan Rogues. The car was inspected by the police and they saw no foul play. The dealership currently has the car and is currently waiting on a new rear hatch window and it will be replaced at no cost after I strongly urged that this car was under warranty and this appears to be a defect (although the dealership doesn't agree). No -- the problem has not been reproduced at the dealership since it does not involve a mechanical part. I contacted the Georgia Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division (CPD) to try to make a Lemon Law Report and the advisor I spoke to indicated that the problem had to occur more than once. Therefore I was unsuccessful in filing that report on April 2, 2025. Since the car had not been turned on, there were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms that the rear window was about to blow out. Again, this happened all on [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The heat in my vehicle only works on the passenger side. It does not blow out warm or hot on the driver's side. This is due to a stripped actuator in the blend door. Yes, it is available for inspection upon request. I live in Colorado where it gets very cold. Because the heat doesn't work on the driver's side, the windshield doesn't defrost well. This is a hazard because I cannot see through my windshield when I'm driving and it's cold out. Yes, this problem was inspected and confirmed by a local Nissan Dealer in Lakewood, Colorado. There are no warning messages. There are a LOT of other people having this exact same problem. See some of the blogs below. There are also some YouTube videos... check out the comments for even more people experiencing the same issue.

235/60R18 tire size I bought a new 2022 Rogue March 2022 which only now has 14,000 miles.During regular maintenance on 1/13/24 , I was told I needed new tires because of tread wear.Nissan said they do not give tire warranty and Hankook would be responsible.After looking at BBB reports, there are quite a few others with similar or same issues. Blow outs,knots or baldness on tires.If these tires don’t last even 2 years or past 14,000 miles,I consider them defective in some way and certainly a safety issue.If Nissan has complaints and still continues to use this tire they are to blame as well.
After taking my car in for the latest maintenance at the dealership, not even a week later my heater/ac stopped working properly. When the air conditioner is on, it blows out hot air... when the heater is on, it blows out cold air! This is very frustrating and only occurs on the drivers side vents for some reason. The remaining vents blow out the correct temperatures. I took the vehicle to a local shop and paid $100 just to have the car diagnosed and they let me know that the heater core needs to be replaced and that it would cost me about $3,000 to repair. I called the dealership to get a second opinion and was informed it would cost me $175 just to look into the issue! I let them know what the local shop said and was told that this was an unlikely issue (which is not what the majority of the internet is saying). The dealer informed me if this was the case it would be upward of $4,000 to replace and that the labor alone is $1,000! This is a frustrating situation because as the weather gets colder, it gets very difficult to defrost my windshield as the heater does not work as needed. Considering many people have complained about this same issue, Nissan should have recalled this a long time ago.
I am leasing a 2017 nissan rogue with 13,000 miles on my brand-new car. Back on march 8, 2019 my first tire blew so I replaced it. On july 9, 2019 my second tire blew out while driving on the highway. When I brought my tire in to be looked at I was told it was a tire malfunction so falken tire ended up reimbursing me for the new tire I had bought. On september 10, 2019 I brought my car into my nissan dealership because my tire pressure light was on. I was told that my two factory tires on my car were leaking around the seams. Seeing that this is a dangerous situation, I contacted falken tire to let them know the situation. My first call to them concluded that they would cover all charges related to the tire; the new tire and labor cost. When I took my car in to get those two tires changed, the guy helping me called falken tire to make sure they would be picking up the bill and they claimed they had nothing on file regarding my situation. After multiple calls to falken tire I was told that they cannot change out my tires because there is no proof in front of them that these tires are faulty. After 2 blown tires and 2 tires leaking, they said there is nothing they can do to help me until an actual problem occurs. Who is going to take responsibility if an accident occurs and people are badly injured? Falken tire will not take responsibility for their faulty tires until someone dies from the situation.
The air conditioning regularly stops working and will blow out warm air. We have taken the vehicle to dealerships and mechanics and they cannot replicate the problem as it requires some period of driving before it will stop working. Sensors and wires have been replaced. Coolant level is fine and this has been happening over the past two summers.

Tires: temporary/emergency spare tire
- What is wrong
- Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2026 Rogue vehicles. The incorrect-size spare tire may have been installed, which does not match the tire size and inflation pressure information on the tire placard. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
- Risk
- Incorrect spare tire pressure information on the placard may lead to incorrect inflation of the spare tire, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect and replace the spare tire assembly as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 25, 2026. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 800‑647‑7261. Nissan's number for this recall is PD180. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on on January 6, 2026.

Tires: pressure monitoring and regulating systems
- What is wrong
- Nissan is recalling certain model year 2012 murano and rogue vehicles, manufactured from november 23, 2011 through january 11, 2012. During assembly, the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) was not activated. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 138,tire pressure monitoring system.
- Risk
- A non-active TPMS cannot warn a driver that a tire is underinflated. Underinflated tires can result in tire overloading and overheating, which could lead to a blowout and possible crash.
- Remedy
- All of the affected vehicles are still in dealer inventory. Dealers have been instructed to activate all of the tire pressure monitoring systems.
Recall number 12V068000 · Recall details
Tires: pressure monitoring and regulating systems
- What is wrong
- Nissan is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in the states of connecticut, delaware, iowa, illinois, indiana, massachusetts, maine, maryland, michigan, minnesota, missouri, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, vermont, washington d.c., west virginia and wisconsin. The material in the nut used to secure the sensor-transmitter of the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may corrode and potentially crack in areas with heavy concentrations of road salt. If this occurs, the nut may come out of the sensor-transmitter and the TPMS lamp will illuminate.
- Risk
- If the TPMS lamp is disregarded and the vehicle continues to be driven in this condition, the tire will quickly lose air pressure at a consistent rate resulting in a flat tire increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- The dealer will replace the TPMS nut with a new, more robust nut. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before november 9, 2009. Owners may contact nissan at 1‑800‑647‑7261 and infiniti at 1‑800‑662‑6200.
