2009 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

THE ELECTRICAL UNIT THAT CONTROLS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, LOCATED IN THE RIGHT PASSENGER SEAT, HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE IN NONWORKING ORDER BY THE DEALER AND DEALER CLAIMS THERE IS NO ACTIVE RECALL REGARDING THAT MALFUNCTION. FOR THE DEALER TO REPLACE SAID PART WOULD COST THE OWNER $2000.

THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! - OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS, I FILED A COMPLAINT TO THE NHTSA AND MADE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS TO THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER ABOUT THIS ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE CVT. I COMMUTE EVERYDAY ON THE NJ TURNPIKE. I HAVE TO MAKE STOPS 'TO LET THE ENGINE/CVT COOL OFF' BOTH GOING AND COMING HOME FROM WORK BECAUSE THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I BARELY GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER IN HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC. SOMETIMES IF THERE ISN'T AN IMMEDIATE SHOULDER, I HAVE TO GO AT A SPEED OF 5-10 MPH IN HIGH SPEED TURNPIKE TRAFFIC OF 60-80 MPH TO FINALLY GET TO A SHOULDER. I ALREADY REPLACED ONE CVT IN THIS CAR. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2009 WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR. NOW I SEE IN 2014 NISSAN CAME UP WITH A 'FIX' TO REPLACE/INSTALL A COOLER KIT AND A TRANS OIL COOLER. THE TWO KITS COST ABOUT $860 WITHOUT INSTALLATION. WHY IS THIS COST PASSED ON TO US THE CONSUMERS? THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN CVT DESIGN. NISSAN SHOULD MAKE GOOD ON THEIR PROMISE TO THE CUSTOMER AND RECALL THE VEHICLES WITH THIS CVT ISSUE TO REPLACE/INSTALL THE NEEDED PARTS WITHOUT MAKING US PAY FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE VEHICLE DESIGN. OH AND I I SAID EARLIER, I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING TO THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER FOR YEARS INCLUDING 2014 AND NONE OF THE SERVICE TECHS EVER MENTIONED THE COOLER KIT FIXES TO ME. THEIR RESPONSE WAS THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING WITH THE CAR. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AND I TELL EVERYONE I KNOW ABOUT THESE CVT ISSUES. THERE ARE AT LEAST 100+ COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE ABOUT THE CVT. WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET A RECALL? WHY DO THE CONSUMERS HAVE TO PAY FOR NISSAN'S FAULTY CVT DESIGN?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND BLINKING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FRONTAL OCCUPATION SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT FAILURE.. WHILE DRIVING THE SEAT BELT UNLATCHES OR TRYING TO LATCH WILL TAKE SEVERAL PUSHES TO HAVE THE LATCH ENGAGE. PURCHASED CAR USED FROM A DEALERSHIP WAS NOT TOLD OF THIS ISSUE. NISSAN DID REPLACE THE SEAT BELT BUT, CARS SHOULD BE COMPLETELY SAFE PRIOR TO RESELLING THESE CARS ON ANY MARKET.

OUTSIDE LATCHES FAILED SIMULTANEOUSLY CAR WAS PARKED WINTER DAY 25 DEGREES F (CAR WAS STORED OUTSIDE ALL EVENING AND DRIVEN). PASSENGER COULD NOT GET OUT. I GOT OUT AND WENT TO UNLOCK DOOR AND NO LUCK, TRIED KEY AND NO LUCK. WENT TO DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND COULD NOT GET IN. HAD TO ENTER THE VEHICLE FROM THE REAR DOORS. VEHICLE HAD HISTORY OF THIS BEING REPLACED, BUT AS A SECOND USED CAR OWNER WAS NOT TOLD OF PROBLEM AND NISSAN SAYS BECAUSE I WAS NOT CONSIDERED A LOYAL CUSTOMER AND THAT THE DOORS WERE NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

THE CVT TRANSMISSION IN THE ROGUE IS KNOWN FOR FAILING. WHEN THE FLUID TEMPERATURE GETS TOO HOT THE VEHICLE WILL GO INTO A LIMP MODE LIMITING ALL POWER. MY ROGUE HAS HAD 4 TRANSMISSIONS IN 85K MILES. I HAVE HAD MY REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION FOR TWO WEEKS AND IT IS ALREADY HAVING SIGNS OF FAILING. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN IN MULTIPLE MAJOR WRECKS BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WILL CUT OUT WHEN TRYING TO ENTER A HIGHWAY OR PULL OUT ACROSS TRAFFIC. THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS OF ACCIDENTS FROM THIS ISSUE BUT NISSAN HAS NOT SAID A WORD. IT HAS THE EXACT TYPE OF FAILURE THE NISSAN PATHFINDER HAD, WHICH JUST HAD A CLASS ACTION PASSED AGAINST IT.

DRIVING CAR TO WORK ON A BUSY ROAD, WHEN IT REVVED AND THEN LOST POWER. WAS ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE SHOULDER.

" TAKATA RECALL"-MY PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON AND THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY CHARGED ME TO TELL ME I HAVE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. I WAS TOLD THEY ARE NOT UNDER ANY WARRANTY OR RECALL. I JUTS BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM NISSAN IN FEB 2015. THEY ARE SAYING I HAVE TO START WITH REPLACING MY PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT WILL BE$1,900 AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THE REPAIR WILL STOP THERE. I WAS TOLD THAT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS WILL FUNCTION UNTIL THIS IS REPAIRED.
