2016 Nissan Rogue

3/13/2023, The last two times I drove the 2016 Nissan, the AWD Error was on the display. I’m not sure what would cause this. I also noticed that the ABS indicator flashes for a while and then stays on when I first start the vehicle. As I look back, A few times I remember a hesitation after descending a steep street and making a sharp left turn onto an intersecting street. It felt as if there was no power even though the engine accelerated. Today the vehicle has 32,386 miles on the odometer. This vehicle sits idle most of the time in our driveway as it belongs to my son who is in the military overseas. I drive it on occasion to maintain the battery. I did replace the battery several months ago. This is the second battery replacement since it was purchased.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving approximately 20 MPH, as she slowed for a traffic signal, the brakes failed as a result the vehicle crashed into the rear of the vehicle ahead of her. The contact stated she saw an unknown warning light had illuminated. There was damage to the grill, hood, and front bumper, all needed to be replaced. The other vehicle suffered minor damage to the rear bumper and trunk. The contact stated that her vehicle had to be towed to a collision repair center. The other vehicle was drivable. The contact stated there were no injuries. The contact stated that the police were on the scene and wrote her a traffic citation, but did not issue a report. The vehicle had been repaired, however, the contact was uncertain whether the brake failure had been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

June of 2022 I pressed my brakes and the brakes didn’t respond and went completely to the floor. I had the brakes and rotors replaced and over the next two months it did that 3-4 more times. August of 2022 this intermittent problem became more consistent and I took it to a mechanic, two other mechanics and they could not diagnose the problem since it wasn’t doing it for them. These people suggested I take it to the Nissan dealership. The Nissan dealer also said they couldn’t find anything wrong and bleed the brakes. They indicated that air was present in the brakes. The brakes responded appropriately for one week and began to intermittently not respond and go to the floor again. I had to pump the brakes for the car to stop. I took it back to The Nissan dealer and again they found nothing wrong. Next step was replacing the master cylinder and bled the brakes again. The brakes worked for 8 days before failing again. Over $1000 in work abs the brake are still not consistently working and I feel unsafe not knowing when the car will or will not stop.

Engine unexpectedly stalls/stops under power. Along with power steering and brakes. Engine sensors were replaced by dealership. Condition persists and confirmed by dealership. Dealership maintains this is an engine wiring harness issue that shorts out under certain conditions. While engine was operating, dealership was able to cause engine to stop. Cautioned me to get wiring harness replaced, as it could present a safety issue or accident. Check engine lie went on as did the traction control light in each case after they were reset. I am taking vehicle to another service center to evaluate. Estimate was $3,402 to replace engine harness, plus it was $750 to replace sensors, Vehicle has 55,000 miles on it.

WE PURCHASED OUT 2016 NISSAN ROGUE IN FEBRUARY OF 2017. IT ONLY HAS ~14K MILES ON IT AND THE ROTORS HAVE ALREADY WARPED. WE TOOK IT TO GAINESVILLE NISSAN AND ALL THEY DID WAS TURN THE ROTORS AND STATE THAT NISSAN DOES NOT CONSIDER THE ESSENTIALLY NEW ROTORS TO BE FAULTY. THE WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY DEFINITION OF FAULTY IS AS FOLLOWS: MARKED BY FAULT OR DEFECT :IMPERFECT. THE ROTORS ARE ESSENTIALLY NEW AND TURNING THEM VERY MUCH LIMITS THE LIFETIME OF THE PART. THE ROTORS AND PADS SHOULD BE REPLACED TO MAKE SURE WE ARE SAFE. THERE IS NO REASON FOR THESE LOW MILEAGE ROTORS TO HAVE WARPED. HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE IN THIS SITUATION?
