2016 Nissan Rogue

SINCE I PURCHASED MY CAR NEW IN 2016, I WOULD NOTICE WHILE DRIVING OUR CITY ROADS THAT MY HOOD WOULD SHAKE LIKE IT WASN'T SECURE. I HAD MY HUSBAND CHECK IT TO MAKE SURE IT WAS SECURE AND IT WAS. ON JULY 5TH, 2018 WE TRAVELED FROM TUCSON, AZ TO ELY, NEVADA. I WAS SCARED TO DEATH EVERY TIME A ONCOMING VEHICLE WOULD PASS US BECAUSE IT LOOKED AS IF MY HOOD WAS GOING TO RIP RIGHT OFF. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE NOTICED THIS AND WERE SCARED. I HAVE SINCE PARKED MY CAR AND AM WAITING TO GET IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT AS WITH EVERYTHING ELSE THEY WILL TELL ME UNLESS THERE IS A PROBLEM REPORTED THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS REVERSING THE VEHICLE IN AND OUT OF THE GARAGE, A POPPING NOISE WAS HEARD UNDERNEATH THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE FLOORBOARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FENTON NISSAN OF KNOXVILLE (4515 CLINTON HWY, KNOXVILLE, TN 37912, 865-687-6111), BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE SOUND. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROMISED TO CALL THE CONTACT BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 23,000. *TT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT OWNED A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE, BUT SOLD THE VEHICLE DUE TO A RODENT INFESTATION IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT THEN PURCHASED THE 2016 NISSAN ROGUE, BUT THIS VEHICLE ALSO BECAME INFESTED WITH RODENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DAVIDSON FORD (18621 US-11, WATERTOWN, NY 13601) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE RODENTS WERE ENTERING THROUGH THE HEATING DUCT SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE ISSUE RECURRED. THE CONTACT CALLED DAVIDSON NISSAN (18423 US-11, WATERTOWN, NY 13601) WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO FILE A HOMEOWNER'S CLAIM AND THE DEALER WOULD THEN PAY FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE RODENT INFESTATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,700. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN DRIVING THE POSTED SPEED LIMITS ON EXPRESSWAY THE HOOD FLUTTERS UP AND DOWN. IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS NOT SECURELY LATCHED ON. I PULLED OVER MULTIPLE TIMES TO CHECK IF HOOD WAS SECURELY LATCHED AND IT 'WAS DEFINITELY LOOSE. I TOOK INTO NISSAN FOR SERVICING AND THEY SAID IT WAS IN THE SPECIFIED PARAMETER- THEY TOLD ME TO CALL THEIR CUSTOMER CARE LINE TO SEE IF SOMETHING COULD BE DONE. I DROVE BELOW THE POSTED LIMIT FOR FEAR THAT THE HOOD WOULD FLY BACK AND HIT THE WINDSCREEN. THE HOOD SEEMS FLLIMISILY MANUFACTURED AND COULD BE OF STURDIER QUALITY.

EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY. THE SEATS AND THE HOOD MOST NOTICEABLY SHAKE. I'VE STOPPED BEFORE TO CHECK THAT IT WAS LATCHED OUT OF FEAR OF THE HOOD OPENING WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE SHAKING IS NOT AS BAD WHEN THE TIRES ARE ROTATED BUT IT EVENTUALLY RETURNS WITHIN A FEW WEEKS. IT HAS DONE THIS SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 23,000 MILES ON IT.

CAR FEELS LIKE SOMEONE IS PUSHING GAS PEDAL AN LETTING GO DURING SLOW 30 MPH. DEALER SAID NORMAL. HEATER WOLD WORK ON HEAT AFTER MOTOR WAS HEATED APPROX AFTER TEN MINUTES DRVING TIME AN COULD HEAR IT KICK IN AFTERWARDS. DEALER REPLACED PARTS. STILL SAME ISSUES.DEALER TECH SAID NORMAL. I HAVE OLD CAR SITTING OUTSIDE HEATS WITHIN SECONDS. TAKES THIS ONE TEN MINUTES OR MORE DRIVE TIME TO HEAT EVEN THOUGH IT'S GARAGE KEPT..HOOD CONSTANTLY BOUNCES FOR NEW CAR. DEALER MADE ADJUSTMENTS TWICE. STILL SAME ISSUE. JUNKIEST CHEAP CAR I EVER OWNED AN WISH HADN'T PURCHASED IT!

AN INSPECTION AND DIAGNOSTIC WAS PERFORMED WHICH WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE. HOWEVER, THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS MIGHT NEED TO BE REPLACED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

ON 2/7/16, I WAS PULLING INTO MY PARKING SPACE AT WORK. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AS I WAS COMING TO A STOP IN MY SPACE. ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ENGINE REVVED LOUDLY, AND THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD, JUMPED THE CURB AND SLAMMED INTO THE OFFICE BUILDING!!!! I HAD NO CONTROL EVEN THOUGH MY FOOT WAS PUSHING ON THE BRAKE AS HARD AS I COULD. MY 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS IN THE CAR WITH ME, AND TO THINK OF WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED PETRIFIES ME. THIS MALFUNCTION HAS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RESOLVED. THE DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIRS ESTIMATES ARE HAPPENING NOW, SO THE REPORTS ARE STILL BEING FORMULATED, AND I CAN ADD THEM TO THIS REPORT ONCE THEY ARE COMPLETED. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN USA HEADQUARTERS AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE SENDING A REGIONAL COORDINATOR TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. I HAVE UPLOADED PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE AND THE SCENE.
