A numerous occasions, when I put the car into reverse to back out of a porking spot etc The backup sensor on the right side of the car activates as though there's something on that side, when there is nothing there. It's extremely nerve-wracking to think you're going to hit something when you aren't. I put in a random day but this is having a multiple occasions.

I saw the recall for Nissan infotainment system randomly rebooting: R22A5 PC901 PC902. My 2019 does the same thing. I've had it occur twice in just the last month. It is available for inspection anytime. Safety issue is the same as for the recall listed above. No confirmation/reproduction by a dealer, no inspection by others, no warning lamps.

While using the Bluetooth Hands-Free Phone system the person I call hears a whistling noise through the phone's speaker during the call and the whistling noise increases when the engine RPM is raised. This is a known problem in some of the 2016-2018 Nissan Rogue models.

When the driver side door reaches an internal temperature of over 100 degrees in direct sunlight, the actuator that controls the door lock will no longer function until the door cools down. The problem is easily reproducible but I have not been to the dealer as of yet. There is no warning system I know of to indicate this problem. My only safety issue was trying to get into my car. I was forced to do it from the rear drivers door, reach in and manually unlock the front drivers door. The key will not turn the lock when this occurs. None of the other doors seem to be affected, but I have not tried to reproduce it with other doors.

Hello- The issue with my 2019 Rogue is the AEB system. On or around 2/11 we dropped our vehicle off for our annual state inspection, on 2/12, While driving the vehicle, the "Malfunction" light came on along with front/rear collision warnings. Car nearly stopped in the middle of the road. We returned the vehicle to the mechanic, who stated that the computer gave an error code that the battery needed to be changed ($+193). Seemed odd for a three year old car, but we wanted to be safe and changed the battery. On 2/14 we changed the battery. On 2/15 we had a repeat of the earlier occurrence. This timed it happened on a highway! Mechanic suggested taking it to dealership On 2/16 we took car to dealership. They diagnosed the issue as the EZ pass obstructing the camera, and they realigned the laser guidance system ($150). On Feb 15 the car broke down again, 30 miles from home. Same issue. we needed to tow the car to the dealership($300). They held it for a couple of days, and diagnosed the issue as a faulty Crank Sensor ($329). This solved the problem until 3/25, and now the issue is occurring again. PLEASE HELP! THE CAR IS NOT SAFE AND I DONT WANT ANYONE TO GET HURT! There are complaints about this issue all over the internet, including reports on the news.

While driving the 2019 Nissan Rogue (with only 19,200 miles) the vehicle suddenly engaged the AEB system. The vehicle was in the process of making a left hand turn when the incident occurred only traveling about 15 mph. As the brakes engaged, the steering wheel locked momentarily before power steering returned, additionally the engine completely died in the middle of the road. Luckily, the forward momentum was just enough for the vehicle to be steered into a side road. Once stopped numerous signals flashed in the dash including “AEB malfunction” and to see the dealer. Vehicle was totally dead and refused to start. A kind stranger assisted in pushing the vehicle to the side of the road. The insurance company sent a tow which allowed for the vehicle to be parked in the driveway. Nissan was informed of the issue and sent a courtesy tow to their local dealer. I was told the vehicle had an issue with the ECU. A special order was placed which took 6 days to arrive. Once installed, it was determined that the ECU was not the issue. As of this writing 7 days has elapsed and no reasonable explanation has been provided for the gross negligence on behalf of Nissan for selling such an unsafe vehicle. Under different circumstances the same event may have resulted in damaged property or worse yet significant injury or death. Cylinders in vehicle were repaired after 6 weeks, it spun to bearing in 3 & 4. Vehicle does not run as smoothly as it did before and dealership isn’t able to repair that.

Feb 3, 2022Electrical systemDriver assistance

WHILE DRIVING CAR, a series of malfunctions occur. It has happened a few times and the problem list just keeps adding on. The first time for no reason at all the collision malfunction light turned on, causing the vehicle to slow down and have almost no power. Car was turned off and on then went away. Same thing happened a couple days in a row. Then while driving I noticed when pushing the rear defroster, the back up camera turned on WHILE DRIVING FORWARD..... the traction control light appeared, followed by the collision (AEB) warning malfunction shortly after. During each encounter with this the rear wiper would turn on very slowly. Now following all the engine light is turning on.

Dec 6, 2021BrakesDriver assistance

Bought car in March 2021. In May 2021 and today Dec 6, 2021 two times the brakes automatically went on causing the car to brake in traffic and there was nothing in front of me for this to happen, nor where there any weather conditions to cause the automatic braking to happen. It is very scary. And very dangerous as there were cars behind me but no too close, but still a very dangerous thing. I want my money back for this vehicle I have paid for since March 2021 plus the 6000 I put down on the vehicle, or there better be a fix for this issue, as I am not about to lose my life or have an accident that could cause my death and others in the process. I have already notified a lawyer to take this case. When people buy vehicles, they expect a car that saves them, not harm them.

As I was bumper to bumper in traffic this morning going roughly 30-40 mph, my car stalled, rumbled, and all of my engine lights came on including engine malfunction. I was unable to accelerate at all, but luckily I was still able to pull over on side road. I restarted my car and now a couple lights remain, including engine malfunction. This could’ve been a serious accident if I were going faster.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2019 Nissan Rogue Select verdict →
