ON A DRIVE FROM NC TO GA WE NOTICED THAT WE WERE LOSING ACCELERATION ON EVERY HILL ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER ABOUT 2 1/2 HOURS INTO THE DRIVE. WE COULD NOT ACCELERATE UP HILLS AND PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. AS WE CLIMBED THE HILLS WE LOST ACCELERATION. AFTER STOPPING FOR LUNCH THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY UNTIL ANOTHER 2 1/2 HOURS MORE WHERE THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE. TRACTOR TRAILOR TRUCKS WERE BARRELING DOWN ON US BECAUSE WE KEPT LOSING ACCELERATION. WE PULLED OFF AT AN EXIT AND BARELY COULD ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. WE PULLED INTO A NISSAN DEALER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THEY THOUGHT IT WENT INTO SAFETY MODE BUT COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AFTER A COUPLE HOURS INTO THE DRIVE AND GOES INTO THE SAFETY MODE WHICH REDUCED ACCELERATION AND POWER. NISSAN SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY CAN ONLY DO SO BY DRIVING IT MORE THAN 2 HOURS. *KB

WHILE COMING OFF AN INTERSECTION THE 2008 ROGUE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSETION. PRESSING THE GAS WOULD SLOW THE CAR MORE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED. EVENTUALLY AFTER PUMPING THE GAS THE CAR WOULD MOVE AGAIN. I HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT THE CAR AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND SAID IT WAS JUST TOO HOT OUTSIDE CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO RUN HOT. I LIVE IN AZ AND IT IS ALWAYS HOT OUT HERE. THE SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED 2 TIMES AFTER I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. *TT

RECENTLY I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN I FILL UP MY 2008 NISSAN ROGUE THAT THE GAS GAUGE DOES NOT READ FULL. CONTACTING 2 DEALERS I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO ISSUE THEY KNOW OF. UPON CHECKING ON THE INTERNET I FIND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS, IN ALL YEAR ROGUES, AND A COUPLE OTHER NISSAN MODELS. NISSAN HAS TO KNOW ABOUT IT. SOME SAY THEIRS STAY 1/4 OF A TANK DOWN, WHILE THE MAJORITY SAY AN 1/8 OF A TANK. THIS FALSE READING COULD RESULT IN PEOPLE BEING STRANDED IN DESOLATE PLACES, THEREBY THREATENING ONES HEALTH; OR AN ENTIRE FAMILY'S HEALTH, I KNOW A GENTLEMAN WHO BOUGHT A 2011, HAS LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT, AND HIS ALREADY HAS THE SAME ISSUE. THIS HAS TO BE A NISSAN ISSUE, AS I SEE ON NO OTHER AUTO MAKES ON LINE. DO YOU HAVE ANY DATA ON THIS? THANK YOU. *LN

The affected vehicles may experience an electrical short in the harness connector due to a mixture of snow/water and salt seeping through the carpet on the driver side floor near the harness connector.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An electrical short can cause a vehicle fire.
Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the kick panel wiring harness connector and will if necessary install a new harness connector and waterproof seal, free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.
Sep 10, 2010
NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN VEHICLES THAT WERE EQUIPPED WITH A GARMIN NUVI MODEL 750 NAVIGATION SYSTEM. THE BATTERIES CONTAINED IN THE AFFECTED GPS UNITS CAN OVERHEAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: OVERHEATED BATTERIES COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
Remedy: NISSAN WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND THE REPAIRS WILL BE PERFORMED BY GARMIN TECHNICIANS BY REPLACING THE BATTERY AND INSERTING A SPACER ON TOP OF THE BATTERY FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT GARMIN DIRECTLY AT 1-866-957-1981 OR NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
Oct 19, 2009
NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2009 ROGUE VEHICLES. A SCREW IN THE STEERING GEAR HOUSING COVER MAY LOOSEN OVER TIME AND COULD FALL OUT. AS IT LOOSENS, THE STEERING RESPONSE OF THE VEHICLE MAY BE COMPROMISED BUT THE DRIVER WILL RETAIN STEERING CONTROL.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THE SCREW MAY EVENTUALLY COME OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR COVER. IF LARGE STEERING INPUTS ARE MADE WITH THE COVER SCREW MISSING THE PINION SHAFT MAY COME OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR RESULTING IN A COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT WHETHER THE STEERING GEAR COVER SCREW IS LOOSE AND WILL BE RETIGHTENED TO THE PROPER SPECIFICATION. DEALERS WILL ALSO INSTALL A COVER PLATE TO PREVENT THE SCREW FROM POSSIBLY COMING OUT OF THE STEERING GEAR. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING NOVEMBER 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
Oct 5, 2009
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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.
