2009 Nissan Rogue

THE DRIVER'S, PASSENGER'S AND REAR DRIVER'S DOOR LOCKS DO NOT LOCK/UNLOCK PROPERLY. IT BEGAN WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FAILING TO OPERATE PROPERLY ONCE EVERY 3-4 WEEKS. I HAD THE DOOR HANDLE RECALL WORK COMPLETED IN MARCH 2011 SO I THOUGHT THE REMOTE'S BATTERY WAS WEAK AND REPLACED IT IN DECEMBER 2011. THEN THE MALFUNCTION STARTED TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY. AFTER A FEW MONTHS, THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT UNLOCK FOR ENTRY TO THE CAR OR LOCK ONCE I WAS INSIDE. TO GAIN ENTRY TO THE CAR, I WOULD HAVE TO OPEN THE DRIVER'S REAR DOOR AND REACH FORWARD TO UNLOCK THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. I HAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK REPLACED IN MARCH 2012. NOW THE PASSENGER DOOR IS INOPERATIVE AS WELL AS THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. I MUST GET IN THE CAR AND REACH TO LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE. IF EVER QUICK ENTRY OR EXIT FROM THE CAR IS NEEDED, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE HARMED. A CHILD IN A CAR SEAT, A PERSON WITH LIMITED MOBILITY OR THE ABILITY TO MAKE A QUICK DECISION IS TRAPPED UNLESS I AM ABLE TO QUICKLY REACH TO LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOORS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN WHO TELLS ME THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THAT THEY WILL GIVE ME A $500 DEALER ASSISTANCE TOWARDS A $1700 BILL FOR A DEFECTIVE SYSTEM. I FOUND ON THE INTERNET OTHER 2009 ROGUE OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. THE MURANO AND THE JUKE HAVE ALSO BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 65-70 MPH. CAME TO A SLIGHT LONG INCLINE ON THE HIGHWAY. IT SLOWED TO 60 MILES PER HOUR WITH THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY PUSHED DOWN. WHEN I CAME TO A REST STOP AND TOOK OFF AGAIN-THE ACCELERATION WAS SLOW TO PICK UP SPEED. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I WAS COMING BACK FROM SEATTLE TO SPOKANE, WA GOING UP THE MOUNTAIN PASS. I COULD NOT GO OVER 30 MILES PER HOUR WITH THE ACCELERATOR PUSHED ALL THE WAY DOWN. IT HAPPENED ON ANOTHER HILL FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD. AGAIN WHEN I STOPPED-THEIR WAS A DELAY IN ACCELERATION. SINCE THIS A COMPANY CAR AND HAVE THE OPTION TO PURCHASE IT AT 80,000 MILES- I WILL NOT. BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO BUY IT AND GIVE IT TO MY DAUGHTER SINCE SHE WILL BE TAKING DRIVER'S EDUCATION THIS YEAR. I FEEL THAT THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIALLY FOR A NEW DRIVER. I WILL NOT BE BUYING A NISSAN IN THE FUTURE FOR MY DAUGHTER. OR ANY OTHER NISSAN. I WILL ALSO LET OUR FLEETS DEPARTMENT KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

AT SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST COMING FROM OUT OF A STOP, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ABLE TO PUSH THE PEDAL HARD TO GET ACCELERATION AND MANAGED TO REGAIN ACCELERATION. ON 7/9/12, WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT STEADY SPEEDS, I BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN TO SLOWING TRAFFIC, WHEN TRAFFIC PICKED UP I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET ACCELERATION OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I PUNCHED THE PEDAL TO THE FLOORBOARD AND GOT NO ACCELERATION WHATSOEVER. THE RPMS WOULD NOT INCREASE THE OVERDRIVE WOULD NOT RESPOND AND WAS JUST COASTING AT 40 MPH. THIS WAS SUCH A RISK AS I HAD FAST COMING TRAFFIC AND HAD TO PULL TO THE SLOW LANE TO NOT BE A HAZARD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. THE VEHICLE NEVER REGAINED ACCELERATION AND HAD TO KEEP PEDAL PUSHED TO CONTINUE MOVING. I PROCEEDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT THE INSISTED THAT SINCE THEY RECEIVED NO COMPUTER ERROR CODES OR COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND NOTICED IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING TO LOTS OF PEOPLE AND COULD BE SEVERAL POSSIBLE ISSUES. IT SEEMS MOST OF THE CAUSES ARE A RESULT OF LONG DISTANCE DRIVING WHICH I DO 4 TIMES A WEEK AND SOMEHOW RESETS UPON TURNING OFF AND TURNING BACK ON VEHICLE OR VEHICLE COOLING DOWN. THE DEALER "COULD NOT" SPARE THE TIME FOR SOMEONE TO DRIVE IT FOR THAT LONG SO THEY LEFT IT AT THAT.. I FEEL THIS IS A BIG SAFETY HAZARD AND HOPE THAT THIS ISSUE CAN BE DEALT WITH THE MANUFACTURER AS A RECALL. *TR

WE HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY SAID IT WAS NOTHING. WENT ON A TRIP 200 ISH MILES ON THE WAY HOME I HAD TO PASS A CAR AND WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS NOTHING HAPPENED. I WAS LEFT LOOKING AT ON COMING TRAFFIC AND HAD TO MOVE BACK OVER. NO ACCELERATION AT ALL. SCARED WE WERE GOING TO RUIN IT BY DRIVING ANY LONGER I PULLED OVER. WE HAD LUNCH AND TRIED AGAIN ABOUT AN HOUR LATER IT SEEMED FINE. ABOUT 15 MINS INTO THE DRIVE IT DID THE SAME THING. NOT SURE EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION. ALSO YESTERDAY IT RAINED AND NOW THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT HAS COME ON. THE CAR IS FAR TO NEW TO HAVE THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS, AND THEY COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS. *TR

TOOK MY 2009 ROGUE IN NOVEMBER DUE TO FUEL GAGE NOT SHOWING ACCURATE FUEL INTAKE. IT WAS RELEASED THE SAME DAY WITH THEY DIDN'T FIND A PROBLEM. TOOK IT BACK IN DECEMBER BECAUSE THE CAR DIED OUT DUE TO NO GAS BUT FUEL GAGE SHOWED ALMOST HALF TANK (MY 2 YEAR OLD SON WAS ME AND WHEN I CALLED NISSAN THEY SAID TO TOW IT BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR THE TOWING). NISSAN ORDERED THE PART IT CAME IN AND INSTALLED DECEMBER 24 2011 BUT WHEN I TRIED TO FILL TANK UP IT ONLY REGISTERED AT HALF TANK. TOOK THE CAR BACK IN THEY DROPPED THE TANK, EMPTIED THE TANK CHECK THE WIRINGS AND SAID IT WAS FINE THIS WAS IN JAN 4 2012 PICKED CAR UP ON JAN 11 2012 AT FULL TANK. CURRENTLY AS OF TODAY, JAN 17 2012 CAR IS AT 250 MILES BUT FUEL GAGE IS ONLY SHOWING HALF TANK WHEN IS SHOULD BE AT LEAST 3RD BAR TO THE END. CALLED NISSAN FOUND OUT THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT BECAUSE MILEAGE WAS OVERLOOKED THEY WILL TRY TO FIX IT AGAIN. BY THE WAY I LIVE IN GUAM. WILL UPDATE AFTER I TAKE IT IN AGAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW PRESSURE SENSOR WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TIRE NUT AND ONE OF THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSORS BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PERFORMED REPAIRS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V393000 (TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS), BUT DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE WHEN THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED A SECOND TIME AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,920 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
