Hi! This is my 2nd input here about my 2022 Nissan Rogue. Recaping that whike driving home, smoke began to emerge from under the hood and multiple warning signs popped up (please see previous input for more information). Cureentky, my vehicle was diagnosed with a converter issue. The recent recall was related to the engine. The converter and my spark plugs (2 spark plugs replaced already) were all damaged by the engine. This makes sense why there are numerous issues. While the extended warranty covers the engine and not the converter, under the law of consequential damage, anything damaged by this engine is covered due to the cause from the engine. I currently have a rental and am leaving my Rogue at the dealership due to it being unsafe to drive and that the dealership has not provided a remedy for this defect, which is covered by law under this recall on the Rogue due to consequential damage. My Rogue will continue to have issues until all related/noncoverd parts are fixed under this. This vehicle is now a lemon due to consistent issue with the engine it damaging other parts. I am hoping for a good will pay and buyback.

While driving home, multiple alerts showed up on the dashboard about my engine and to check the manual. Smoke began to come up from the engine and smelled really bad. I heard a rattling as well. The recall work was done on this not too long ago, coming up on 1 year ago, and still have engine difficulties after they replaced the entire engine and did the recall repair.

**Timeline Summary – Vehicle Safety Recall Case** **Owner:**XX **Vehicle:** 2022 Nissan Rogue (VIN: [XXX] ) **Dealer:** Pine Belt Nissan of Keyport **Recall:** NHTSA 25V-437 (engine bearing defect) **August 2025:** Owner received recall notice describing a potential engine bearing defect that could lead to engine damage, sudden power loss, or fire. Nissan indicated remedy was not yet available. **December 2025:** Nissan notified owner that remedy was available. Repair protocol included ECM reprogramming, diagnostic drive cycle, and DTC scan, with engine replacement if faults were detected. **December 3, 2025:** Vehicle serviced at Pine Belt Nissan. ECM reprogrammed (campaign XXX), diagnostic testing completed, and no DTCs found. Vehicle returned to owner. **Mid-January 2026:** Engine suddenly failed during normal driving, resulting in complete loss of power. Vehicle became inoperable and was returned to dealer. **January 16, 2026:** Dealer diagnosed catastrophic engine failure: “engine ran without oil… knocking… needs long block, turbo, and Bank 1 catalytic converter.” Estimated repair cost exceeded 10,000. Owner declined repairs. Oil, filter, and drain plug washer were replaced during this visit. **Current Status:** Vehicle remains inoperable. Failure occurred shortly after recall repair and appears consistent with the defect described in Recall 25V-437. **Key Issue:** Catastrophic engine failure occurred soon after completion of the recall remedy, raising concern that the repair did not adequately identify or prevent the defect. Owner is requesting full repair coverage, including engine replacement and related damages. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Vehicle experiences repeated engine malfunction with power reduced condition while driving. Vehicle loses acceleration and may not exceed approximately 30 to 40 mph despite full throttle input. Condition occurs intermittently and is worsening. Vehicle has also developed oil odor after operation. Dealer has performed multiple diagnostics and repairs but condition persists. Root cause has not been clearly identified and diagnosis has included conflicting explanations involving EGR system, sensors and turbocharger. This condition creates a safety risk due to sudden loss of power while driving in traffic.

My car is just 3 years old has reduced power warning and continuous engine light on. Despite several reminders, calls to Nissan Marietta Dealership as well as Nissan Consumer Affairs, issue has not been resolved. My car is not in a driving condition and they have wrongly changed the battery and charged me instead of taking care of recall or repairing the engine light issue. They keep changing their diagnostic results. I request immediate resolution and attention of Nissan in this matter by a qualified technician.

Subject: URGENT SAFETY COMPLAINT - 2022 Nissan Rogue (VIN: XXX) - Recall Remedy Failure I am filing a formal complaint regarding a life-threatening defect in my 2022 Nissan Rogue. This vehicle has experienced three (3) total losses of motive power at highway speeds, nearly causing multiple accidents. I am now afraid to drive this vehicle as it remains a substantial safety hazard. Recall & Repair Failure: The vehicle is subject to Recalls R25E2 and R25E3 for engine bearing and throttle body failure. The dealership performed an ECM software update which effectively removed the "open recall" status from my VIN history. However, the dealer refused to perform the mandatory physical oil pan inspection for metal debris required by the recall protocol. The car still exhibits severe bucking, hesitation, and gurgling noises. By only performing a software "fix," the manufacturer has cleared the safety alert while leaving a catastrophic mechanical defect unaddressed. This is a complete remedy failure. 30-Day Out-of-Service & Misdiagnosis: In January 2025, the dealership retained my vehicle for over 30 days. During this stay, the service department initially informed me via text that the engine required a full replacement. The following day, they abruptly changed the diagnosis to spark plugs. I have text records of this contradiction. This 30-day stay meets the statutory presumption of a "Lemon" under Florida Statute 681.104. Unresolved Issues: Despite replacing the throttle body, EGR valve, water pump, and various mounts, the engine still stumbles, especially from a stop. The dealer manager previously discussed a vehicle swap but attempted to force a new credit application, treating a safety-defect remedy as a new sale. I am seeking a Substitution of Collateral (Swap) on my existing loan terms for a reliable vehicle. Below, I put the date this all started, last service was a 3/9/26-power loss/throttle Current Mileage: 55,000 Dealer: Nissan of Cape Coral, Florida INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On 02/22/2026 my 2022 Nissan Rogue began sputtering as it was being driven. Was able to finally get pulled over where the engine died and would not start. Almost hit another car because did not have brakes or power steering. Was taken by tow truck to local Nissan dealer where the Tech confirmed the EGR valve was faulty and possibly caused severe engine damage. No warning lights were displayed just the engine sputtering and running rough.

My 2022 Nissan Rogue experienced sudden engine failure due to coolant loss and a blown head gasket while driving. The engine became inoperable and the dealership denied coverage. This appears to be a premature engine defect and created a safety risk due to sudden loss of power.

The contact owns a 2022 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving 55 MPH, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode and decelerated to approximately 10 MPH. The message "Engine Malfunction" was displayed. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The vehicle was restarted, but failed to respond while depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine had failed due to the failure of the camshaft and three other unknown parts around the camshaft. The dealer determined that the failure was not related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V437000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) because the engine had not failed due to rod bearing failure. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and offered a 70 percent reduction in the cost of the repair. The failure mileage was approximately 84,000.

My 2022 Nissan Rogue VC-Turbo has progressively worsening engine knocking and vibration since ~30,000 miles. Dealer documented: “Found variable compression ratio actuator to be making noise” (see repair order). Symptoms persist at idle, acceleration, and when warm. Recall 25V-437 is marked complete, but the actuator continues to make noise, indicating the defect is not fully remedied. Nissan Consumer Affairs offered 50% financial assistance toward the actuator repair (email attached), and the dealer requested a diagnostic fee, which I have not paid and formally dispute, as the inspection relates to a potential safety defect. The actuator controls the internal multi-link compression system connected to the crankshaft, Progressive knocking and vibration may indicate stress on internal bearings and failure could lead to loss of engine power or engine seizure while driving, creating a serious safety risk. Vehicle is originally owned, maintained at Nissan dealerships, and has a branded title solely for cosmetic hail damage, with documentation confirming no structural or mechanical impact. I request NHTSA record this complaint, evaluate potential safety defect, and consider further investigation. I can provide repair orders, service records, and videos of the noise if needed.

On [XXX] I was traveling with my [XXX] daughter from Phoenix, AZ up to Flagstaff, AZ. The Nissan Rogue associated with the VIN number is my wife's. Vehicle only has 24,000 miles on it and we currently have a Nissan Security+Plus extended warranty, [XXX]. We were cruising along nicely and all of the sudden many warning signs appeared stating "Malfunction, See Owner's Manual". The vehicle turbo essentially lost all boost rendering the engine nearly powerless. I have read many reports of this being a possible issue with the motor, but there is currently no recall on it. That is a potential catastrophic failure and I'm afraid it will happen again. We were able to get the vehicle to a Big O Tire in Flagstaff, AZ since the Nissan dealer there couldn't see the vehicle. They hooked it out to a diagnostic, cleared out all the warning codes, and the vehicle starting producing boost and working properly again. We made it safely back down to Phoenix. I'm very worried this could happen again and wondering why this major glitch isn't being recalled. Has Nissan considered a full buy back on these vehicles? Please advise.

While driving on the freeway, the car started to feel like it was requiring more pressure on the gas. Heading to an exit ramp, as more gas that was pressed, white smoke suddenly started to come out of the exhaust and even into the passenger compartment (presumably from the engine) and just as it neared an exit ramp , the car lost all power... incredibly dangerous with other cars beginning to line up behind the car. Then the gear shift could not go into neutral so the car could be pushed to a safe location. When the Auto Club associate arrived, he was able to get the car in neutral and tow it to the local Nissan dealer (Van Nuys, CA).

There is an open recall for this car model for many months now. I received official notices of the recall. However when I took the car to the Nissan dealership to be serviced, they stated the manufacturer had not provided them with a fix for this engine problem recall and they were unable to address the issue. The car therefore is still being driven for me and my family without the engine problem being fixed or addressed.

Feb 14, 2026

Incident Summary: On February 14, 2026, at an automatic conveyor car wash, my Nissan vehicle would not shift into neutral while in motion on the conveyor belt. It stayed in drive/reverse, creating a hazard as it could resist conveyor movement or cause unintended acceleration/reverse. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Transmission shifter/gear selection system (likely electronic shift-by-wire or CVT controls) prevented shift to neutral while vehicle was in low-speed motion. This seems due to a software safety interlock blocking neutral during movement, similar to reported Nissan issues (e.g., Rogue/Pathfinder/Ariya models requiring hold procedures or "neutral hold mode"). Vehicle available for inspection and in my possession, Knoxville TN). How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Inability to shift to neutral prevented free rolling on conveyor, risking resistance, jerky movement, hopping off track, collision with mechanism/other vehicles, or rear-end incidents. Hazard to me (driver) and car wash attendants/customers. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? UNKNOWN — Incident today; not yet diagnosed/reproduced at dealer. Similar owner complaints noted in forums (difficulty shifting to neutral at car washes due to safety features). Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? UNKNOWN — No inspections yet by Nissan, police (no crash), insurance, or others. No damage occurred. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lamps, messages, noises, or symptoms prior. Shifter worked normally idle (shifted to neutral after initial exit), but failed again in motion—likely motion-related interlock.

My Rogue had an engine failure in 2024. This caused the car not slow down and not accelerate on highway and could have caused an accident. Entire engine and turbo and replaced at 71276 miles. In 2025 another incident happened where the car lost power on the interstate in left lane, I had to move my car to right side of road in busy traffic. This could have also been a major accident, and put my family at risk. I left the car at another dealer as I was on vacation. This time the EGR valve, EGR sensor had to be replaced as well as all catalytic converters at 97018 and 97282 miles I received the recall notice after all of this in the mail about the engine recall on this Rogue and Nissan is failing to reimburse me for any of the repairs for the engine and other parts replacement. They are saying that the repairs are not related to the recall. I have heard from my dealer and other sources that several of these Rogue engines are failing similar to what mine did. I do not believe Nissan is doing enough to resolve the issue with these cars.

They said the vehicle transmission mount is leaking and need to be replaced as it is causing a vibration. The vehicle is only 53,000 Miles. The vehicle went there for a recall on the engine and i guess if this is not a result of the defect on the engine. I called to get more info and the technician stated that multiple vehicle came in with the same failure. That's why i am reporting the issue to have it investigated and find out if it is from Nissan. The pricing is $1190.41.

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 2022 Nissan Rogue Select verdict →
