What 169 owners told NHTSA about the 2025 Nissan Rogue Select

On a cool morning (~53°F), I drove approximately 6.4 miles each way (about 12–13 miles total) to and from school with the rear defroster on to clear condensation. After returning home and parking, I heard a loud pop and saw that the entire rear hatch window was shattered. I called my husband outside, and we documented the damage with photos and video. When I closed the door, the shattered glass collapsed inward into the cargo area, with shards also scattered across the driveway. There was no external strike point, debris, or prior damage to the glass. The breakage was spontaneous and created a safety hazard by leaving sharp tempered fragments inside the vehicle and an open rear hatch. Other 2025 Rogue owners have reported the same failure, suggesting a recurring defect.

I purchased my 2025 Nissan Rogue Rock Creek Edition 5 months ago. The car was sitting in my driveway and the back glass shattered. I was home, no one was around. Warranty doesn't cover glass, so I had to pay out of pocket up to my $500 deductible with insurance. There were no cracks prior to this happening.

I've only had my 2025 Rock Creek Rogue for 4 months. The back windshield all of a sudden shattered. I'm seeing a lot of customers complaining about the same issue. It's evident there's a defect in the glass,that's causing the glass to shatter and it needs to be addressed. I shouldn't have to come out of my pocket for a $500 deductible to pay for a windshield that's well known for having a problem. There should be a recall for this windshield. .

I bought Nissan Rouge 2025 and just after 234 miles warning light "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now" came on. I took it to dealership, and they checked and said nothing was wrong with the car. I was glad that nothing was wrong with my car. Same warning message light "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now" came back again at odometer reading of 569 miles. This time car started jerking, shaking, automatic accelerating for a while and then started working back on normal. I took it back to dealership. This time they replaced Engine control Module. They gave car with this assurance that all problems are fixed. I was glad to start driving my brand-new car again with only 569 miles on odometer. But just after driving 300 more-mile same warning message "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now" light came back on with same jerking and automatic acceleration for a while. I parked car and took it back to dealership. It's been with them for over a week now with odometer reading 872 miles. "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now" warning light comes at random and once you park car it goes away. But when light is on car jerks, shakes and it makes driving person very concerned and worried

The back windshield shattered in my 2025 nissan rogue. It was sitting in my driveway, I got in my driver's seat, shut the door and my back windshield shattered. I'm unable to drive it because glass keeps falling everywhere. Nissan warranty doesn't cover windows even though there are multiple incidents of this same thing happening. There is no way to prove it is a manufacturer defect. If I took it to the dealership to access the damage there would be no window left and it is unsafe to drive. The dealership doesn't even replace windows so I have to pay out of pocket to fix it. There were no cracks or chips before it happened and it is not covered in bumper to bumper warranty even though it is only 4 months old.

While driving on the highway, I pressed the rear defrost button for the first time since purchasing the car last April due to a foggy rear window. Shortly after, I noticed through the rearview mirror that the rear gate window had shattered, even though nothing had struck it. When I arrived at work and exited the car, the rear window suddenly broke apart completely, leaving a large hole as if the glass had exploded.

The rear window shattered spontaneously with explosive force and sound while I was driving and parking it in the subsurface garage of my condominium complex, with my wife as a passenger. I can only surmise that substandard safety glass, combined with unusually high outside temperatures and extremely effective interior air conditioning was involved in the physics of the explosion. The incident was unprecedented in my 67 years of driving. The incident was preceded by intermittent and inexplicable hissing sounds for several miles before I entered my parking garage and parked the vehicle. No external projectile or impact was involved.

At intersection car started rattling when I accelerated and would barely go and engine light came on. Had to be towed to dealer. They are saying it is just a coil. It had been smelling like burnt rubber. Only has 1509 miles. I am afraid it is more than what they are saying due to the description of the engine recalls coming

I purchased a brand new 2025 Nissan Rogue on June 4, 2025, with the expectation that its ProPILOT and Safety Assist features would function reliably under normal driving conditions. However, just three days after purchase, a warning light began appearing that reads: “Warning: Driving Aids Temporarily Limited.” This message occurs randomly and under regular driving conditions, without provocation, and causes the ProPILOT/Safety Assist systems to disable themselves entirely. At the time this first occurred, the vehicle had only been driven a few miles and had been kept in clean, well-maintained condition. I contacted the dealership immediately and scheduled a service appointment for June 16, 2025. In the days leading up to that appointment, the issue continued to occur unpredictably, making the driving experience both frustrating and unsafe. The vehicle has now been in the dealership’s possession for multiple days (as of June 18, 2025), and no resolution has been found. The technicians have not been able to diagnose or correct the issue, and I have been left without a functioning vehicle. This problem was not disclosed prior to purchase, and the repeated system failure of essential safety features is unacceptable, especially on a brand new car. The inclusion of advanced driver assistance was a primary factor in my decision to purchase this vehicle. Having these systems work only intermittently presents a significant safety risk to myself and others on the road, and undermines the integrity of the vehicle's advertised capabilities. I am filing this formal complaint to document the issue and request prompt action and resolution from Nissan Consumer Affairs and NHTSA.

The dealership of Royal Nissan in Baton Rouge took two and a half hours to do an oil change. When I asked them why they said it was a known problem that my vehicles engine oil plug would strip if they tried to drain it that way and that it had to be pumped from the top. The service technician admitted that this was a known problem in the plastic oil pan.

I took ownership of this vehicle on December 11, 2024. Here are some of the problems I've encountered with this 2025 Nissan Rogue SL model: (1)Blind Spot, lane departure has been malfunctioning as of 12-11-2024. (2)The seat belt symbol started malfunctioning a few days later. The red seat belt sign on the dashboard remains on for an extended period. (3)The AM/ FM radio was working for a short time then off and on. Whenever the AM/FM radio goes out, Sirius XM radio remain strong. I brought the SUV back to the leasing company twice after which they programmed and reset the radio and the safety features. It seemed to work for a day. I called the leasing company and they said that I should take the Rogue to one of Nissan's service departments for a diagnostic workup. I made an appointment with the service dept. where the technician spent a good amount of time going over the vehicle.  We then took a test drive where he explained how the system worked. The tech said that this vehicle’s blind spot kicks in after it reaches 30 miles according to the training video. He went on t say, in addition you have to press the blue blind spot logo to activate the system. I  took the vehicle to the Nissan service.  Since driving this Nissan Rogue another problem occurred that complicates all of the other issues above. That is this dangerous rear lift gate. Let me be clear, I’m a disabled veteran and all of these safety components are extremely important to my family. I can’t afford to worry or be hit again by this lift gate. This lift gate has hit me twice which organizing my belongs in this new SUV. Whenever your working near the rear bumper the rear lift gate is likely to come down! I’m back from the Holidays and this vehicle is going back to the Nissan service Dept again. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
