Nissan Rogue electrical problems

ON JANUARY 23, 2015 THERE WAS A RECALL OF MY VEHICLE. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED BY MY DEALER OF THE RECALL. I JUST SAW IT TODAY WHEN CHECKING MY CREDIT KARMA ACCOUNT. MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP SHOULD HAVE INSPECTED THE KICK PANEL WIRING HARNESS CONNECTOR ON MY CAR FOR DAMAGE. IF NO DAMAGE WAS DETECTED, MY VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE A WATERPROOF SEAL FOR THE HARNESS. IF DAMAGE WAS FOUND, THE DEALER WAS TO INSTALL A NEW HARNESS CONNECTOR AND THE WATERPROOF SEAL.

TAIL LIGHTS ON DRIVERS SIDE STOPPED WORKING. LIGHT BULBS WERE REPLACED BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SIGNAL LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT CONTINUE TO WORK BUT NO TAIL LIGHTS. NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS CURRENTLY TRYING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT ARE HAVING TROUBLE LOCATING THE CAUSE. THEY TELL ME THEY ARE IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN TECHNICIANS VIA E-MAIL AND EXPECT THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE WIRING HARNESS. THE CAR IS 3 1/2 YEARS OLD AND HAS JUST UNDER 42000 MILES. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER NUMEROUS TIMES TO ADJUST OTHER RECALL ISSUES AND FOUR TIMES TO FIX THE AIR CONDITIONER. I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT ANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THE CAR HAS COULD ONLY COME FROM DEFECT OR FROM PREVIOUS REPAIRS DONE BY THE SERVICE DEPT. I BELIEVE I HAVE A REASONABLE EXPECTATION THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN ANY NEW CAR SHOULD CERTAINLY LAST LONGER THAN 3 1/2 YEARS.

NISSAN ROGUE SPORT 2017 WITH 2K MILES. CAR HAS ISSUES STARTING. ENGINE WILL TURN OVER A COUPLE TIMES BEFORE STARTING. ON 11.29.2017, CAR STALLED AT A STOP SIGN AND ENGINE COMPLETELY TURNED OFF. IT TOOK TWO TRIES FOR THE CAR TO START UP AGAIN. BROUGHT TO NISSAN RENO IMMEDIATELY. NISSAN RENO CALLED ON 11.30.2017 STATING THE DX TEST CAME BACK WITHOUT ANY NEGATIVE RESULTS. NISSAN STATED THAT THE CAR STARTED FINE FOR THEM AND TEST DROVE IT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IT NOT ON. EXTREMELY CONCERNED AS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. WHAT IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY OR MAJOR HWY AND THE ENGINE WOULD JUST TURN OFF? I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY BRAND NEW CAR THAT I'VE ONLY OWNED FOR ONE MONTH. THIS ISSUE, IF OCCURS AGAIN CAN CAUSE INJURY TO MYSELF OR ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL.

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!

MY VEHICLE, A 2012 NISSAN ROUGE CAUGHT ON FIRE IN MY DRIVEWAY WHILE MYSELF AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR HOME WERE SLEEPING. WHEN I WOKE UP TO A LOUD POPPING NOISE AND RAN TO MY BEDROOM WINDOW FACING THE DRIVEWAY WHERE ALL OF THE VEHICLES WERE PARKED I NOTICED MY VEHICLE, THE NISSAN ROGUE BURNING INTENSELY. THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE IN THE FRONT WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. 911 WAS DIALED IMMEDIATELY AFTER WAKING AND NOTICING AN OBVIOUS FIRE COMING FROM THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE, AT APPROX. 11:00 PM. BY THE TIME THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED, 3 OTHER VEHICLES IN OUR DRIVEWAY, ALONG WITH THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE, WERE RUINED. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WAS SALVAGEABLE. THE FIRE WAS SO INTENSE THAT IT MELTED ALL OF THE SIDING ON THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE FACING THE DRIVEWAY WHERE THE FIRE OCCURRED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, INCLUDING THE FIRE CHIEF AND FIRE MARSHALL CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION AND EXPLAINED TO ME, AS WELL AS THE OWNERS OF THE OTHER VEHICLES, THAT THEY BELIEVE THE FIRE WAS ELECTRICAL AND OBVIOUSLY STARTED WITH THE 2012 NISSAN ROGUE AND ULTIMATELY SPREAD TO THE OTHER VEHICLES BEFORE THE FIRE COULD BE COMPLETELY EXTINGUISHED.

A/C LINE INSTALLED DIRECTLY ABOVE ALTERNATOR. ON EXTENDED DRIVING TRIPS WITH A/C OPERATING AT MAXIMUM, CONDENSATION/MOISTURE ATTACHED TO LINE DRIPS FROM LINE ONTO ALTERNATOR CAUSING BATTERY LIGHT ON DASHBOARD TO FLICKER MOMENTARY. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS PERIODICALLY AND THE DEALER/NISSAN IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE MALFUNCTION BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHEN TECHNICIAN RUNS A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. I INSTALLED INSULATION BOUGHT AT LOWE'S AND THE PROBLEM CEASED TO OCCUR. I THEN REMOVED THE INSULATION AND THE MALFUNCTION OCCURRED AGAIN (REPEATEDLY). I REINSTALLED INSULATION AND MALFUNCTION CEASED. TAKING THAT ACTION AND THE RESULT IS EVIDENCE THAT THE PROBLEM IS A DESIGN FLAW. I REQUESTED THAT NISSAN INSTALL PREFABRICATED INSULATION AS SEEN ON THE 2006 HONDA CRV WHICH HAS THE SAME A/C LINE CONFIGURATION, INSTALLED ABOVE THE ALTERNATOR. THAT IS TO PREVENT ALTERNATOR BEING RENDERED INOPERATIVE FROM CONSTANT MOISTURE INFUSION.

''TAKATA RECALL" AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS CONTINUING TO STAY ON EITHER STATIONARY OR ACTUAL DRIVING OF VEHICLE BEEN AT DEALER FOR OVER 5 MONTHS AFTER SUBMITTING COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN THEY FINALLY HAVE MANUFACTURED A PART AFTER ALL THIS TIME. HAVE LOOKED AT VEHICLE MANY TIMES AT SERVICE DEPT. COMPLETELY GUTTED VEHICLE AND REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT CARFAX AT LEAST NOT TO MENTION SAFETY AFTER PUT BACK TOGETHER IF IT WILL BE RIGHT THEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AND STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE MALFUNCTION WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MODERN NISSAN OF LAKE NORMAN (18615 STATESVILLE RD, CORNELIUS, NC 28031), BUT COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.
