2017 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

Air bag sensor light displayed. Took to the Nissan Dealership and the initial diagnosis was a reset of the sensors. Within a couple days the air bag sensor light displayed again. I took the vehicle back to the Nissan dealer, and was advised that occupant sensor unit failure and both sensors and control unit needed to be replaced. These types of saftey equipment should not fail in a vehicle that is only 5 years old. I read a report that this defect was part of a recall.

The passenger side airbag occupancy sensor is not working and therefore the airbag will not work. This is the same issue with other Nissan Rogue’s and a recall in this same year and yet our VIN is not included. It is very likely that cars have been missed on this recall as there is no other reason for this part to not be working.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving approximately 25 MPH and stopping for a traffic light, the vehicle stalled and then lunged forward. The contact depressed the brake pedal and stopped the vehicle. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle; however, the failure continued with the vehicle lunging while depressing the accelerator. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact towed the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000.

This car is known for transmission issues and there should have been a recall already. All that’s happened is a warranty extension and a class action lawsuit. My check engine light came on and I took this car to 4 mechanics who couldn’t determine the issue. The car stalled out in the middle of driving on a highway and while making a turn. I could have been hit. This car is DANGEROUS and Nissan is well aware of the transmission issues with this car. They knew before I even bought this car. These cars should have been pulled off of the road and repaired before allowing any more people to risk their lives driving in them. I called a transmission shop who won’t even service my car because he’s done so many of these Nissan rogues and can’t even get the parts to fix them. There’s a shortage of parts because this issue is happening so often. I’m outside the now extended warranty so I have to get a new transmission out of pocket…while still owing $6k on my car loan. The car is 5 years old. I’ll never ever buy another Nissan. They are aware of this issue and putting thousands of not millions of people in danger.

While having my car on for an extended period of time, my car will randomly not accelerate when I push on the gas pedal. As soon as I turn the car off and turn it back on, my car will reset itself and will resume as normal, until it happens again sometimes just 30 minutes later. This issue has happened since I have purchased the car. This happens mostly when I am in stop and go traffic, when I need to accelerate at a stop light, or even just in a pick up line for my son’s school. I took my car into the Tim Dahle Nissan Dealership in South Jordan, UT and they claimed my transmission issue was not related to the issues mentioned in the complaints and that there are leaks causing it, however, everything lines up exactly with the issues as described and I have never heard of these leaks happening until the visit that I happened to ask for a warranty fix. The last time this complaint happened was back in 2021 where they updated the software on the transmission, they told me this would fix the issue and it did not resolve the issue at all, as if still continues to happen. I submitted a complaint to Nissan in February this year advising of the same issue happening and I received a letter in the mail stating that this was an issue that would be covered under the warranty. Please help me get this fixed!!!

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the driver’s side and passenger’s side sideview mirrors, the front driver’s side seat and driver’s side window could not be adjusted due to an electrical failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed with a faulty electric circuit board that was burnt. The circuit board was replaced and the failure was remedied; however, a week later the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who diagnosed that the electrical connector for the under-dash wiring harness was corroded due to water and salt intrusion from the driver's side foot well. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The contact indicated that the previous model year vehicles were recalled for the same failure; however, the 2017 model year was not included. The failure mileage was 69,000.

The car will not accelerate when the gas is pushed. It hesitates and jerks. Sounds like I'm trying to drive in neutral. I have only had the car for a little over a month.
