WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE A VERY LOUD "CLUNKING" NOISE AND STARTED DESCENDING RAPIDLY, I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE, THE ERROR MESSAGE THAT CAME ON WAS "EMISSION SYSTEM ERROR" I WAS INSTRUCTED BY THE OWNERS MANUAL TO CHECK THE FUEL DOOR TO SEE IF IT WAS OPEN, IT WAS NOT, THEY ALSO SAID THAT IT MAY BE THAT THERE WAS UNDER 3 GALLONS OF FUEL IN THE TANK WHICH THERE WAS NOT. THE MANUAL ALSO STATED THAT IT WAS OKAY TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT 45 MPH, WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE AGAIN, ANOTHER ERROR MESSAGE CAME ON WHEN I TRIED TO GO, IT STATED "CHASSIS SYSTEM ERROR". I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, DARLINGS NISSAN, THEY HOOKED UP TO THE COMPUTER, THEY CANNOT RE-CREATE THE ISSUE, YET THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT SAFE, THAT THEY DO NOT WANT ME BACK IN MY VEHICLE UNTIL THEY HAVE FOUND SOMETHING, THEY HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR OVER 2 WEEKS WITH NOTHING BEING FOUND. THEY ARE HAVING A REGIONAL TECH COME TO TEST DRIVE EXTENSIVELY TO SEE IF HE CAN FIND SOMETHING. I HAVE READ ALL THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE AND I HAVE COME TO ONE CONCLUSION, NISSAN DOES NOT MAKE A GOOD QUALITY PRODUCT AND I AM SORRY I EVER SWITCHED FROM MY EXPLORER TO THIS HORRIBLE CONTRAPTION OF A CAR. *TR

I HAD A SEVERE ACCIDENT WITH MY 2014 NISSAN ROGUE AWD WHICH ALMOST KILLED ME AND MY ENTIRE FAMILY. IT WAS A MIRACLE THAT WE ARE ALIVE. HOWEVER MY WIFE HAS SOME INJURY ON THE NECK....UPDATED 10/20/14 *BF ON 9/28 EARLY MORNING, WE WERE DRIVING (IN MIDDLE LANE) ON FREEWAY (I-5 - SOUTHBOUND) AT A NORMAL SPEED AND ALL OF SUDDEN I HEARD A BIG SOUND IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR. I WAS ALERT BUT BEFORE I COULD REACT, THE NEXT MOMENT MY CAR ROLLED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THEN UPSIDE DOWN (ON THE FRONT HOOD AND FRONT PART OF THE ROOF) AND GOT DRAGGED AND AT THE SAME TIME TURNED. FINALLY THE BACK OF MY CAR HIT THE CURB WITH FULL FORCE AND THEN IT RESTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE (BETWEEN EXIT 109 AND 108) BUT NOW IT WAS FACING NORTHBOUND. I BROKE THE WINDSHIELD TO COME OUT AND WITH THE HELP FROM PASSERSBY; I COULD SAFELY BRING MY WIFE AND 3 YEAR OLD OUT OF THE CAR. ALL THESE HAPPENED SO QUICKLY BUT I REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED AS I DID NOT BLACKOUT. NEITHER MY CAR HIT ANY OTHER CAR NOR DID ANYTHING HIT MY CAR. AND LUCKILY THERE WAS NO TRUCK OR CAR FOLLOWING US. IT'S A BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ROGUE WHICH I BOUGHT IN JAN 2014. I STILL CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW COME SUCH A SERIOUS FAILURE COULD OCCUR. THE VEHICLE IS NOW TOTALED AND I HAVE LOGGED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN BUT I AM STILL WAITING FOR A REPLY. I WANT THIS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS I DO NOT WANT OTHER FAMILIES TO EXPERIENCE WHAT WE HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH. UPDATED 05/21/2015 *JS

ON SUNDAY JANUARY 11TH, 2014, MY FAMILY AND I WERE ON OUR WAY HOME. AFTER STOPPING AT A SERVICE STATION MY HUSBAND PULLED ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND WAS ACCELERATING TO THE APPROPRIATE SPEED AND THE CAR JUST GOT STUCK AT 6500 RPM'S AND 60 MPH. IT STAYED THAT WAY FOR ABOUT 5 MILES,WE COULD SLOW DOWN BUT THE RPM'S WERE STILL STUCK AT 6500 AND THE ENGINE WAS MAKING A HORRIBLE SOUND, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND SEVERAL TIMES WE HAD TO RIDE THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. WHEN WE FINALLY REACHED THE ROAD WE LIVE OFF OF MY HUSBAND WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND TURN WHILE TURNING THE AWFUL NOISE GOT A LITTLE LOWER BUT A NEW NOISE WAS HEARD, A WHINING SOUND. AFTER TURNING, THE CAR LOST ALL GAS, NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS PUSHED AND THEN FINALLY IT STARTED TO GO AGAIN. WE ARRIVED AT OUR HOME MY HUSBAND OPENED THE HOOD AND TOLD ME TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR A LITTLE AND THEN HE SAW SMALL PUFFS OF SMOKE. I SMELLED SOMETHING LIKE BURNING RUBBER WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVERS SEAT AND MY HUSBAND SAID HE SMELLED SOMETHING SWEET UNDER THE HOOD. THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW ON JANUARY 4TH, 2014, IT HAD 25 MILES WHEN PURCHASED. THE MILEAGE ON JANUARY 11TH WAS AROUND 500. THIS IS A DANGEROUS VEHICLE, I AM WAITING ON THE DEALERSHIP TO CALL AND LET ME KNOW WHAT THEY FIND. *TR
