My passenger side warning light stays on continuously, even when someone is using it. I've ask dealership several times and last time they finally checked and said that something to do wiring and that if I had a crash that either airbags will deploy. And that it will cost me almost 3000.00 to fix. Is this something that is part of a recall that can be fixed? Without me paying for? That requires alot of money out of my pocket that I don't have. Thanks

Liftgate malfunction. Liftgate of vehicle was found open when entering our garage despite previous night it being utilized and closed. I pressed the button on the liftgate to close the liftgate and both my husband and I witnessed it closing and heard the usual "click" sound that liftgate had closed completely. We entered the vehicle, and my husband started the vehicle. As he was slowly moving forward out of the garage, we suddenly heard beeping and the liftgate was opening without warning, hitting the top of the garage, causing the rear glass in the liftgate to shatter and damage to the rear wiper and liftgate paint. The plastic inner cover came off also. My husband moved the car to the street to clean out the class from the back, closed the liftgate and a few minutes later it rose again automatically without warning. When we brought the vehicle in for repair we mentioned what had occurred and asked that it be checked for accurate operation.

-engine light was on and nissan ran a diagnostic and found the code number p0603 and needs a new ECM -this could cause an accident as the driver can loose control of vehicle at any moment causing the driver and others at high risk -the problem was confirmed by the dealer service center -the engine light was the only indicator and other private car auto body stated the battery needed replacement but nissan ran a diagnostic to find it was the ECM.

I was driving along East Passaic Bloomfield, New Jersey it’s a double Saul line two-lane roadway with four major exits into it Garden State Parkway etc. the person in front of me turn left over the Saul lines into a driveway, then put the car in reverse to back out of the driveway, straight across the double Saul lines to his house on the same side as he was going south right in front of my car this roadway is like a highway. The car went into a skid which it shouldn’t have. right in front of my car this roadway is like a highway. The car went into a skid which it should know with the antilock brake system, and upon contact the airbags did that a ploy deploy And upon contact airbags, didn’t deploy my wife, and I have to – my knees hit the dashboard. The person that caused the accident his company with State Farm and they put me at 15% liability which is totally wrong. I was sick at the time when they were going over the money they took thousands of dollars from me now my car is destroyed. They paid me to fix it, which doesn’t even cover the cost of the repairs. The car would have not gotten into the accident if it didn’t skid I would have been able to stop. I need Nissan to do something either replace this car or repair it because the accident should not have occurred. Airbags did not deploy and we got hurt. I’m not looking a lawsuit nothing like that. I want my car just fixed or replaced and the car does have recalls for electrical and other problems

Recall for water potentially leaking into drivers side dash harness connector…which could cause battery discharge and thermal damage to connector (along with other possible problems). About two weeks prior to receiving the recall letter…my Rogue started having major battery issues - such as, thick blue corrosion on and around both terminals, all down the cables/wiring, and circuit board attached. Got the alternator checked, bought a new battery, and still…same problems. It hasn’t been reliable enough to drive. The day I call to make an appointment at the Nissan Dealership, I received the letter of the recall (1/23/23). The letter states to call and make an appointment to get it fixed ASAP. After finally talking to someone who had little knowledge on the recall AND couldn’t even tell me what the part is or where it was. I was then informed that they do not have the parts to fix it because Nissan doesn’t have them available yet….and to call back in a couple weeks cause they had no knowledge when parts would even be available! After telling him my issues, he informs me that Nissan recommends not to drive it whatsoever and to unhook my battery completely…due to major fire potential. I live 25 minutes from town, out in the country with my 84 year old grandmother…with NO other vehicle options available. The dealership doesn’t offer any sort of rental car service and didn’t seem to care or even offer any other options. I have a job and a grandmother I look after. I’m not one to complain, but this is absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention the fact, the problems my car is experiencing, fall under this recall is VERY nerve racking to know I was at risk of my car catching on fire while driving it or even having my battery hooked up while it’s parked!

The contact owned a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that the driver seat failed to move forward or backward. In order to adjust the driver seat excessive force was required and was able to be adjusted after several attempts. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the unknown repair was performed however the driver seat was still not able to be adjusted up or down. The contact then stated that while their husband was driving approximately 60 - 70 mph, the instrument panel suddenly glitched and the vehicle failed to accelerate. It seemed like the vehicle was coasting only. The center computer began turning off and on. The vehicle self-corrected. Next, the front passenger side window failed to move up and down till the driver side window had been moved first. Later that same day, while their husband was driving (mileage unknown) the vehicle suddenly shut completely off. The driver waited a few minutes and was able to drive the vehicle back home where they parked the vehicle. After being parked for approximately an hour the contact was informed by the police that the vehicle had caught on fire and was extinguished by the fire department. A police report was filed. There were no injuries, no medical attention was needed and there was no damage. The vehicle had been towed to the insurance company to be evaluated. The vehicle was deemed totaled. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000.

After driving my vehicle for about 20 minutes, when I press the gas pedal to accelerate from a stopped position (like at red lights) my car just does not go. It doesn’t stall, it hesitates and doesn’t go as normal. I have to pump the gas pedal and eventually it will go, but it continues to lurch forward and the RPMs rev up over 4 as the vehicle “bunny hops”.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the driver’s side and passenger’s side sideview mirrors, the front driver’s side seat and driver’s side window could not be adjusted due to an electrical failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed with a faulty electric circuit board that was burnt. The circuit board was replaced and the failure was remedied; however, a week later the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who diagnosed that the electrical connector for the under-dash wiring harness was corroded due to water and salt intrusion from the driver's side foot well. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The contact indicated that the previous model year vehicles were recalled for the same failure; however, the 2017 model year was not included. The failure mileage was 69,000.

My 2017 Nissan Rogue is accelerating and lunging on its own. My sister and her fiance were almost involved in two separate accidents due to this safety concern. My sister said as she was coming up to a stop light, the vehicle suddenly accelerated forward, causing her to have to swerve into the next lane to avoid the accident. She said the vehicle then acted like it did not have enough power to accelerate forward again once it had stopped, however, my sister stated as she was attempting to get home after this incident; the vehicle accelerated/lunged forward again resulting in her having to swerve into the parking lot of a store to avoid another accident. My sister also stated that the traction control light flashed she the vehicle's RPMs got really high while she was driving it. This light did not stay on, but the check engine light has. My sister stated that once she got the vehicle home, she placed the vehicle in park and suddenly the RPMs on the Rogue maxed out, almost like you are pushing the pedal all the way to the floor while the vehicle is in Park or Neutral. My sister stated that once the RPMs went back down, the vehicle then stalled and has not started since.

The trunk lift gate opens then closes. The safety feature in which it will open if it is close to coming into contact with an object does not work. Sometimes the malfunction is delayed and if an individual is reaching into the trunk , it will come down on their head and possibly close them between the liftgate and the trunk. The trunk was inspected by a Nissan service parts place and they said it coded for needing new spindles which is a $1300 part that is on national back order without an eta. This presents safety issue because it can cause head injury and possible body injury if a smaller sized individual gets closed between the liftgate and the trunk.

VEHICLE HAS TWO ISSUES, SEEMS TO BE TEMPERATURE RELATED. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW 35 DEGREES, THE YELLOW LIGHT INDICATING THAT IMMEDIATE BRAKING IS REQUIRED, IS ENGAGED AND BLINKING WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED ON.(WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING) LIGHT STAYS ON, WHILE DRIVING, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NO OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE ROAD OR VEHICLES' CAMERAS.IT GOES OFF, AFTER DRIVING FOR APPROX 5-10 MINUTES. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE FREEZING (WARMER MONTHS) A HARD BRAKE WILL CAUSE THE CENTER CONSOLE DISPLAY AND THE FUNCTIONALITY OF HANDS-FREE CELL USE, TO TURN OFF. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE DISPLAY RESETS AND TURNS ON (REBOOTS) ON IT'S OWN. IF SPEAKING TO SOMEONE VIA HANDS FREE, WHEN TURNOFF OCCURS, IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY RECONNECT CALL, AFTER REBOOT. (IF CALLER STAYS ON THE LINE) THE VEHICLE'S DASHBOARD HAS DISPLAYED ALL WARNING LIGHTS AND SOUNDED ALL AUDIBLE ALARMS, SEVERAL TIMES, WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS (BOTH STREET AND HIGHWAY DRIVING). WHILE THESE SITUATIONS ARE UNNERVING AND ANNOYING, THEY DID NOT SEEM TO AFFECT THE ACTUAL HANDLING OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE REMAINS UNDER POWER AND IN GEAR. CONCERNED THAT ONE OF THESE EVENTS MAY ACTUALLY TRIGGER THE BRAKE OR CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO TURN OFF, WHILE UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. OR, NOT WORK, WHEN THEY ARE ACTUALLY REQUIRED..VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK TO DEALER, FOR THESE SPECIFIC ISSUES, SEVERAL TIMES. AFTER REPLACING CONSOLE AND DOING COMPUTER UPDATES, VEHICLE IS RELEASED AS "FIXED". VEHICLE IS STILL EXPERIENCING THESE ISSUES. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE CAR WAS RECEIVED (NEW FROM THE NISSAN DEALER) UP TO THE PRESENT TIME.
