2023 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

Multiple recalls issued, we were informed by Cochran Nissan there were “no fixes for the these recalls.” Yet this vehicle left us stranded along highways and busy roadways on numerous occasions. Leaving us in unsafe places while waiting for the vehicle to be towed. Each time multiple warning lights were illuminated and the car lost power. The final repair involved engine replacement and other extensive repairs. Only to have the engine leak oil less than a week after these extensive repairs. When the dealership could not fix the vehicle or determine the cause, h why blamed us and claimed the warranty was voided. Months of ongoing issues, repeated visits and incorrect diagnoses caused entirely by improper and inadequate repair attempts. Despite bringing the vehicle in multiple times, the repair issues were never properly resolved. Instead, the dealership repeatedly placed temporary fixes on the problem, each time making the situation worse. The technicians failed to identify or repair the root cause of the issues, resulting in additional damage and subsequent repairs that should have been covered under warranty. Instead of acknowledging these ongoing failures, the dealership blamed us for the damage and claimed that the warranty had been voided—an accusation that is both unacceptable and inaccurate given that the damage stemmed directly from their own missed diagnoses and improper repairs. Because of the dealership’s unprofessional conduct, lack of accountability, and sub-par workmanship, we ultimately no longer have the vehicle. This situation has caused significant stress, financial loss, and inconvenience to our family.

Our front and backup camera do not work. We took it to a Nissan dealer on April 20, 2026, and was advised that the AVM control unit has to be replaced. They found and recommended: "All system scan found AVM missing from dtc sheet. Performed can diag found AVM offline. Rec replace AVM control unit." Research shows that there is a defect in the rear wiper grommet or seal allowing water to enter the liftgate, contributing to the overall failure of the rear hatch components - water corroded the rear backup camera unit.

Despite having recall repairs completed, I have experienced two separate accidents within a 3–4 month period and no longer feel that this vehicle is safe to operate. Given the known safety recalls associated with this model, including engine failure risks that can result in sudden loss of power, I am extremely concerned that my vehicle may still be affected by an unresolved or improperly remedied defect. This situation presents a serious safety risk to myself, my passengers, and others on the road.

The passenger side roof is leaking water. It’s leaks through the roof and through the headliner. The water leaks onto the passenger curtain airbag before it leaks onto the headliner. It’s on the pass side between the sunroof and the passenger door of the car and on the A pillar. Worried it will affect airbag or make the roof moldy. It’s hard to see in photos but easy to see in person

I was sitting in stopped traffic when the incident occurred. My sunroof was open at the time. Without any warning or external impact, I heard a sudden loud “boom,” and the sunroof glass shattered. Glass fragments dispersed throughout the vehicle, and the lower portion of the sunroof appeared to have exploded. There were no objects, debris, or other vehicles that made contact with my car. The failure appeared to be spontaneous. Vehicle Information: Year: 2023 Make: Nissan Model: Rogue Conditions at Time of Incident: Speed: 0 mph (stopped traffic) Weather: Clear blue skies, sunny, approximately 84°F Safety Concern: This incident created a significant safety hazard. The sudden explosion of glass without warning could have caused injury to occupants or led to a loss of vehicle control if the vehicle had been in motion. I am aware that there have been other consumer reports of sunroof glass shattering unexpectedly in similar vehicles across the industry, including reports involving Nissan Rogue models. This raises concern about a potential defect in the sunroof glass or installation.

I was mailed a letter about a recall for engine bearings. When i called the dealership, they told me they did not have the parts and that Nissan would reach out. Then i received another letter so i called back and scheduled an appt. Before the appointment, the car started exhibiting stalling behavior which included causing me hit a pot hole. Then critical engine warning lights came on, so Nissan towed it to the dealership. The dealership wants $5,000 for a bad turbo and says it is not covered under the recall, only engine bearings and a turbo hose are covered. I believe the ongoing engine failures, bad manufacturing, negligence on behalf of Nissan is causing these issues and it should be covered. This can also cause the throttle body to go bad, which would be another couple thousand dollars. This car is 3 years old, and i still owe 4 years of payments for an unsafe vehicle that i can not drive. I am attempting to escalate this with Nissan, but so far, it has not been covered.

The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. While the contact's wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal burning odor coming from the vehicle. The contact stated that seconds later, the vehicle was surrounded by smoke. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was driven to the shoulder of the road. The contact stated that nearby drivers contacted the Police and the Fire Department. There was no fire. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, but no diagnostic information was provided. In addition, two unknown recall repairs were performed three weeks prior to the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 42,000.

I am writing to formally escalate a serious safety complaint regarding my vehicle, which is currently under an active recall and was already scheduled for repair next month. On a recent occasion, the vehicle suddenly and completely shut off while I was driving inside a tunnel, creating an extremely dangerous situation that could have resulted in a severe accident. At the time, I was driving with my family inside the car, including my [XXX] son. The engine/electrical system shut down without any warning. Emergency assistance was required, and the police attended the scene due to the risk created. Vehicle VIN: [XXX] This is not an isolated issue. The vehicle has already shown previous failures, and the recall repair has not yet been completed. This ongoing defect represents a serious and unacceptable safety risk. I am requesting: 1. Immediate inspection of the vehicle 2. Urgent repair under recall conditions 3. Written confirmation of the cause of the failure 4. A formal response regarding safety liability in this incident Given the severity of this situation and the presence of a young child in the vehicle during the failure, I expect this matter to be treated with the highest urgency.

I was driving down the road doing 70mph in a 75mph when out of nowhere my 2023 Nissan Rogue just shut down no power, no warning, no nothing a extremely terrifying experience. I managed to pull over on the side of the road and it would not start back up, and is still inoperable and sitting on the side of the road because i can't get it towed to my Nissan dealership and the luck of it all is I just had my vehicle diagnosis on a open recall on 3/23/2026 they did a engine inspection, reprogrammed the ECM, and did a road test, Now 3 weeks later this happens to me, Maybe it wasn't apparent at the time, but something happened to where i was put in danger and this is a serious problem involving the Nissan Rogue

The passenger compartment doors locking mechanism can fail to operate properly preventing access to the the car through the external handles and can cause hanging if inside the cabin requiring multiple pulls to get the door to unlock. When the lock toggles are not completely in the locked or unlocked position, the solenoid will still function but will not unlock/lock the problem door. If the door has the child lock is activated and the locking mechanism is bound up because of the toggle, this creates an entrapment issue if you don't know what is going on.
