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.

THE CONTROL PANEL DISPLAY LOOKS TO BE OUT. IT IS VERY HARD TO READ. IT ONLY DIMS OR BRIGHTENS BUT IS NOT CLEAR ENOUGH TO READ. THIS HAPPENED FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT 2 YEARS OLD YET AND THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. THIS WAS NOT DUE TO AN ACCIDENT IT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM SEEMS MORE LIKELY, CAUSE BY A FAULTY ELECTRONIC COMPONENT

MY 2016 NISSAN ROGUE EXPERIENCED AN ABRUPT AND TOTAL FAILURE OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE AND THE VEHICLE WOULD LURCH AND LOSE POWER. THIS ABRUPT FAILURE MAKES ME FEEL VERY UNSAFE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY THAT RIDES IN THIS CAR, HAD IT STALLED ON THE BUSY ST LOUIS MO INTERSTATES WE WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT AND POSSIBLY KILLED, LUCKILY I WAS ON A BUSY, BUT LESS TRAVELED ROAD AND I WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 41,000 MILES ON IT. ONCE I GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP, I INSISTED THAT THEY RIDE WITH ME SO THEY KNEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND NOT TRY TO SAY THAT THEY COULDN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE WHEN DRIVING IT ALONE. THE SERVICE PROFESSIONAL WAS VERY UPFRONT AND HONEST WITH ME AND TOLD ME IT WAS DEFINITELY THE TRANSMISSION AND NISSAN HAS TONS OF THESE ISSUES WITH THEIR VEHICLES. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR OVER A WEEK NOW FOR A TRANSMISSION REBUILD. HOWEVER, NISSAN IS NOT OFFERING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OR ANYTHING ON IT, EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW THEY ARE FAULTY AND DANGEROUS, I WILL ONLY HAVE 20,000 MILES LEFT ON MY WARRANTY ONCE I PICK MY CARE UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP. NISSAN DOESN'T OFFER LOANER CARS TO THOSE WITH WARRANTY WORK THAT NEEDS DONE, WE HAVE TO PAY $35 A DAY DUE TO THEIR FAULTY VEHICLES, THE LEAST THEY CAN DO IS OFFER LOANER VEHICLES FOR WARRANTY WORK! NISSAN NEEDS TO HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR LEMON VEHICLES AND BE REQUIRED TO BUY THEM BACK ON THE FIRST TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR, EVEN WITH THE REBUILT TRANSMISSION AND I DON'T THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO TRADE THE CAR IN, ROLL OVER THOUSANDS TO ANOTHER VEHICLE LOAN AND PAY $1500 OR MORE IN TAXES TO LICENSE AND TITLE ANOTHER VEHICLE. NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS AND THEY NEED TO BE FINED FOR THEIR CONTINUED USE OF FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS AND MADE TO BUY BACK FAULTY AND DANGEROUS VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. UPON DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, A LOUD DRAGGING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT WAS FAULTY. A DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 69,000.

I HAVE A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE, I HAVE TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THE STRUTS REPLACED 6 TIMES AND IS AN ON GOING ISSUE AND I HAVE GOT IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. DEALERSHIP STATED THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND THAT MY CAR WAS NOT THE ONLY ROGUE DOING THIS. THE FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER I GOT THE CAN SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER 2016 AND MUSKOGEE NISSAN REPLACED THE STRUTS AND I LEFT AND WANT A BLOCK AND IT WAS STILL POPPING AND TUNED AROUND AND THEY LOOKED OVER AND I ENDED UP HAVING TO ORDER AND REPLACE THE ASSEMBLY. FEBRUARY 2018 FRONT LEFT SIDE MAKING POPPING NOISE OVER BUMPS AND RUBBING NOISE WHILE TURNING TOOK IN TO SUPERIOR OF FAYETTEVILLE AR. MILES 25999 THEY REPLACED THE STRUTS ON THE LEFT SIDE. JULY 5,2018 TOOK BACK TO MUSKOGEE NISSAN FOR THE RIGHT FRONT POPPING AGAIN AND THEY COULD NOT TELL IF IT WAS THE STRUTS OR THE BEARINGS AND ORDERED AND TOOK BACK IN TO REPLACE, MIND YOU THIS TAKES ANYWHERE TO 5 TO 7 HOURS TO FIX AND THEY HAVE NOT ONE TIME ASK IF I NEED A VEHICLE. THIS HAS PUT ME OUT OF WORK AND I DO NOT EXPECT TO HAVE ISSUES WITH A NEW CAR AT THIS TIME THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WARRANTY WILL BE UP AT 36,000 AND I HAVE AT THIS TIME 34500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BUMPER OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT AND DEEMED DESTROYED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A DEALER, BUT THE CONTACT DID NOT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN ACCELERATING ON HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET, I NOTICED VEHICLE BEGAN MAKING A LOUD WHINING/PURRING NOISE. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED VEHICLE FROM AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED (AND I DO HAVE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY). THIS WAS A WEDNESDAY SO I WAS GIVEN A LOANER VEHICLE ON THURSDAY WHILE MY CAR WOULD BE IN THE SHOP OVER THE WEEKEND. MONDAY MORNING, NEVER HEARD ANYTHING FROM DEALERSHIP. TUESDAY, SAME. WEDNESDAY, STILL NO WORD LATE IN THE AFTERNOON SO I HAD TO CALL AND THE SERVICE COORDINATOR INFORMS ME THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION BECAUSE NISSAN STATES THE NOISE THE TRANSMISSION IS MAKING IS NOT "LOUD" ENOUGH. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ON MY VEHICLE THAT IS TITLED "INFORMATION TO PREVENT CVT REPLACEMENT DUE TO MISDIAGNOSIS OF NOISE" THAT THE DEALERSHIP'S SHOP FOREMAN WENT THROUGH AND THEIR CONCLUSION WAS THAT THIS IS WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE. I CALLED NISSAN AND OPENED A CASE. MY CASE MANAGER SPOKE WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP AND MY CASE WAS CLOSED BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE SHOP TECHNICIAN AND NISSAN, THERE'S NOTHING "MECHANICALLY" WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE AND IT IS "WORKING PROPERLY" IT JUST MAKES AN UNPLEASANT NOISE. SO I CALLED NISSAN AND RE-OPENED MY CASE AND THE ASSISTANT OF MY CASE MANAGER INFORMS ME THAT MY NEXT STEP WOULD BE TO TAKE IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM DIAGNOSE IT AND SEE IF THEIR FINDINGS ARE DIFFERENT. THERE ARE NO NEARBY ALTERNATE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS THAT I CAN EASILY TAKE MY VEHICLE TO. NISSAN IS FORCING ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING MY VEHICLE DESPITE THEM KNOWING THERE IS A KNOWN FAILURE AND EXPECTING ME TO CONTINUE MAKING MONTHLY PAYMENTS FOR A VEHICLE THAT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING.

FRONT COLLISION SENSOR GOES OFF AT RANDOM SPEEDS WHILE TRAVELING FORWARD WITH NO ONE ON THE ROAD AHEAD. THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY APPLIES THE BRAKE IN SOME INSTANCES. THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM ALSO RESETS ITSELF PERIODICALLY. PRIOR SERVICE HAS HAD THE ENTIRE BODY CONTROL MODULE REPLACED, BUT ELECTRICAL ISSUES PERSIST. MULTIPLE DEALERS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH ISSUES ARE STILL PRESENT. SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD BY VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY APPLYING BRAKE RANDOMLY AND NISSAN STILL DOES NOTHING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THESE INSTANCE HAPPEN ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE ACCELERATING, AN ABNORMAL WINDING NOISE WAS HEARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (CAUSEWAY NISSAN, 435 NJ-72, MANAHAWKIN, NJ 08050) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 32050871. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.
