2021 NISSAN ROGUE Complaints

If Nissan knows that the 2021 nissan rogue has a transmission problems with Valve Body Replacement. THIS COULD BE A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING. Please recall!

Constant strong fuel smell that last for day I'm a disabled veteran and I had really bad headaches after driving each time. I have taken vehicle in to dealership and told them about fuel smell problem and they reported they couldn't find issue but even after my vehicle still smells like fuel so much that I can taste it and get headaches from it also family gets headaches to. At the current moment there are no warning lamps on.

I own a 2021 Nissan Rogue SV, 2.5L engine. I have repeatedly experienced a strong gasoline/fuel/exhaust-like odor inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The odor is extremely strong and has caused me and my passengers to experience dizziness, nausea, feeling sick, and discomfort. I regularly transport my children, including a [XXX] child, creating a serious safety concern. The exact component causing the odor is UNKNOWN. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. I have taken the vehicle to the Nissan dealership more than eight times for this same recurring problem. On some occasions, I was turned away without the vehicle being properly inspected, and on other occasions I was told that the dealership could not find anything wrong or that there was nothing they could do to repair the issue. The problem has continued and worsened I eventually took the vehicle to an independent automotive repair facility for a second opinion. Their written service documentation states that I reported a strong smell of gas and feeling sick. The shop removed the rear seat cushion and inspected the low-pressure fuel pump and found no leak at that particular time. They also visually inspected the high-pressure fuel pump and found no obvious signs of a fuel leak at that time. The independent shop documented the ongoing concern and recommended that I return to the dealership with the information they found. Their documentation also states that I should not drive with children in the vehicle at this time because of the unresolved issue. Although the independent inspection did not identify an active fuel leak at the time of inspection, the recurring odor remains unresolved. The problem appears to be intermittent or difficult to reproduce during inspection, but it continues to occur during normal operation of the vehicle. I am particularly concerned because this vehicle is used to transport my children and we have all experienced some health concerns. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (F

The contact owned a 2021 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the vehicle independently accelerated and the brakes failed to operate while the brake pedal was depressed, causing the front center of the vehicle to crash into a tree. No warning lights were illuminated. The air bags deployed as needed. The vehicle was deemed a total loss at the scene. Neither a Police report nor Fire Department report was filed. The contact was seated in the driver’s seat, and her husband was seated in the front passenger seat and sustained several injuries, including seat belt bruises and cuts on both arms and hands. The contact and her husband both sought medical attention. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 58,000.

On July 29th 2024 (two weeks after regular oil change) i noticed the engine temperature rise to the halfway mark. I stopped at Sheetz and waited for it to cool down. I opened the coolant cap and only a few drops remained in the reservoir. I added coolant and called Timbrook Nissan to complain they didn't top off the coolant. I was advised that "those Rogues are known to leak coolant out of the back." I took it to the dealership for diagnosis on August 10th. They advised that the 4th piston is cracked and a new engine is necessary. Nissan is not making new Rogue engines. They will put a used engine in for $8500. (I assume of the same quality). I took it to an independant shop. They found coolant in pistons 3 and 4. They cannot fix because Rogue engines are backordered with no ETA. There were no warnings. The car was being maintained religiously. A cracked cylinder poses risk of the engine shutting down while on the freeway. It also causes super heating of coolant posing a burn risk. Unburned fuel can be forced down the exhaust line and ignited into the catalytic converter.

Last year we had engine problems and the head gasket was bad, had it replaced and it ran for another year. It currently has a cracked head and needs repaired again.

Complaint Description: On XXX, my 2021 Nissan Rogue would not start due to a busted engine block, rendering the vehicle inoperable. The vehicle was serviced exclusively at Kraft Nissan in [XXX], from the time of purchase until approximately one year prior to the failure, following the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule. I contacted Nissan regarding the engine bearing recall affecting 2021-2024 Rogue vehicles equipped with the VC-Turbo engine (Nissan recall numbers R25A8/A9 and R25B1/B2), which addresses bearing failures that can breach the engine block and increase the risk of engine fire. I was informed that my VIN is not included in this recall campaign, despite my vehicle being the same model year and equipped with the same engine type, and despite experiencing symptoms consistent with the defect described in the recall (engine block failure). My vehicle remains undrivable due to this engine failure. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether additional vehicles, including mine, should be included in this recall campaign based on the described defect and failure pattern.

I was on the interstate as I got off the interstate had a complete loss of power and heard what sounded like metal banging against metal in the engin. I was broke down in the middle of the intersection. Had to push the sub out of the road. The vech was towed to Nissan dealership and was told my vech was not covered under the engine recall.

There is a piece missing on the back of one of my seatbelt buckle latches (back drivers side). It looks like the latch is splitting open. All of the sudden the back drivers side door is stuck closed/shut and often won’t open. I contacted Victory Nissan on Mechanicsville Turnpike at [XXX] and called Nissan customer service at [XXX] and spoke with Shavonke. They told me there was no recall on my VIN# and because of the 100778 mileage there was nothing they could do. I disputed that there was a recall on this very issue down to the same side (the drivers side) as well as class action lawsuits. Nissan still would not take ownership and expects me to pay them hundreds of dollars to repair a defect they have been advised of that they actually have a limited recall and class action lawsuits in regards to.
