The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that she noticed that the papers on her sun visor were significantly moist and the headliner was stained. The contact later noticed that the carpet was soaked and that the water stains had extended from the headliner to the interior door liner. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who advised the contact to vacuum the water out of the carpet. The contact vacuumed the carpet however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that while driving in the rain, water was leaking from the ceiling onto the front driver's and passenger's seats, the front driver's door, and the front passenger's door. The contact stated that the failure had caused mold to develop on the carpet and on some other parts inside the vehicle. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who informed the contact that the carpet would be replaced at her own expense. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Additionally, the contact stated that the front driver's power seat was inoperative and she had smelled a burning odor. The contact received the notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V024000 (Electrical System) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

I have had to repair the rear window for leaking water through 2x. It is still a factory window but significant amounts of water was leaking. I had it repaired 2x, re-glued. But it is similar to the recall for the side door for the rogue. The water leaking caused electrical problems (doors lock/unlock on own, etc) but must've stopped once it was dry. The date listed is for the last repair but was repaired a few years prior also.

The hydraulics (?) in my manual lift gate suddenly failed. The hatchback slammed shut, and I barely ducked away in time. I was shaking.I thank God that my grandchildren weren’t the one retrieving an item. They could have been killed or paralyzed. I saw that Nissan recalled the Rogue for tailgate problems, but was told my vehicle wasn’t covered. (Nissan Case #44796538). This defect means no one can use my cargo space without risking life and limb. This happened approximately the first week in September. No warnings. Anyone is welcome to inspect my car. In my decades of car ownership, I have never had this happen on any vehicle. Scary.

Hood was inadvertently released by driver due to hood latch release's location next to the fuel door release. Driver then pulled out of gas station onto street. While traveling under 15 miles per hour and within a block, the hood flew upward, obscuring the driver's view, causing damage to the hood, fenders, and cowl filler pieces. Damage has been inspected by the insurance appraiser/body shop manager, who confirmed the hood release safety latch was "frozen" and only became operative after manually manipulating it several times. The same individual mentioned this was the second Rogue in less than a year where he had noted hood damage, again without affecting the windshield or the roof. Cause of damage in that case was only learned after the appraiser had questioned the driver and the driver mentioned that the hood had flown up in a prior unrelated incident.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT MOISTURE HAD BEEN ENTERING THE VEHICLE, CAUSING THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR MAT TO REMAIN SATURATED WITH WATER. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO BYERLY NISSAN (4027 DIXIE HWY, LOUISVILLE, KY 40216) WHERE THEY HAD INSPECTED THE VEHICLE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS HOWEVER, THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT YET DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THEY INFORMED HER THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT BE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE REMAINED IN THE POSSESSION OF THE DEALER UNREPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

DUE TO COVID, WORKING FROM HOME, SHOPPING SOLELY ONLINE AND HAVE VIRTUAL MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS. RARELY USE CAR AND IT SAT UNDRIVEN FOR WEEKS. WATER ACCUMULATING IN MOONROOF DRAIN CAUSED HAZARDOUS MOLD ISSUE IN CAR INTERIOR. WAS NOT WARNED AND DEALER DID NOT APPARENTLY CHECK DRAINS. HAVE BREATHING ISSUES AND MOLD IS A HEALTH ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND HEALTH HAZARD. AT MINIMUM BUYERS SHOULD BE WARNED THIS CAN HAPPEN. IT IS NOWHERE IN OWNERS OR SERVICE MANUALS. REPAIR IS APPROX 1/3 PRICE OF A NEW CAR. INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER. CHECK DRAINS DURING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE VISITS.

ON THE TRUNK DOOR, THERE IS RUSTING, ESPECIALLY AROUND THE NISSAN EMBLEM. ON THE TOP OF THE TRUNK DOOR, ON THE SPOILER, THERE IS A LOT OF RUSTING AND SCRATCHES STARTED TO APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE, SOME OF THEM ARE VERY SMALL AND BETTER NOTICED WHEN LOOKING CLOSELY OR ZOOMING IN ON A PHOTO. SURFACE FEELS ROUGH. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO ANY CAR WASH PLACES. THE SCRATCHES AND RUSTING SEEM TO ONLY APPEAR AT THIS SPOT. MY OTHER VEHICLES, INCLUDING ANOTHER NISSAN, HAVE ALL BEEN TAKEN CARE THE SAME WAY AND THEY DO NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF RUSTING. THE RUSTING WAS FIRST NOTICED IN LATE SPRING DURING COVID-19 QUARANTINE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVEN MUCH, AND IT APPEARS TO HAVE GOTTEN WORSE SINCE THEN. NISSAN CALLED THIS A "COLOR DISTORTION", WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS SINCE THE SURFACE FEELS ROUGH. I TALKED TO A COLOR SPECIALIST AND HE IS CERTAIN THAT IT WAS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. I ALSO DID RESEARCH ABOUT OTHER NISSAN OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE, AND IT SEEMS TO BE COMMON. A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT START RUSTING LIKE THIS ONLY 5 YEARS IN USE.
