2023 Nissan Rogue owner complaints (15)

• ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE

  I am filing this complaint regarding Nissan's handling of an open safety recall involving my vehicle and the subsequent engine failure. Nissan issued Recall 26V080 concerning an engine-related defect that can cause engine oil breakdown, bearing damage/seizure, engine damage, and loss of motive power. My vehicle developed the red oil warning light, check-engine light, and reduced engine power before the engine failed. The vehicle also had dark oil and sludge in the engine. The dealership is now attributing the engine failure to alleged lack of maintenance and has denied the engine warranty claim. This is disputed. The vehicle received oil changes at an independent repair facility, and I provided Nissan with receipts documenting the maintenance. The dealership originally relied on the absence of Carfax entries to claim that the oil changes had not occurred. The dealership inspected the vehicle and submitted photographs and a physical sludge sample to Nissan's warranty department. I was told that Nissan's warranty department responded approximately three days later. No Nissan warranty technician or field representative physically inspected my vehicle before the determination was made. Nissan Consumer Affairs told me that the dealership's warranty department made the determination and that they would not disclose what information was submitted or what the sludge sample established. I dispute the conclusion that maintenance caused the engine failure. The presence of sludge does not, by itself, establish what caused the sludge. Nissan's own recall documentation identifies oil breakdown as part of the defect's failure mechanism. I have not been provided with evidence explaining how Nissan distinguished maintenance-related oil degradation from the recalled defect or how it ruled out the recalled defect as a cause or contributing factor. I was also told that the recall cannot be performed because my engine is no longer operational and that I would have to obtain another

• POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE

  On XXX at approx 1:29 PM, I was driving my 2023 Nissan Rogue (purchased new XXX Chapman Nissan Philadelphia) on [XXX] with my family including 2 young children and my brother-in- law, heading to [XXX]. At highway speed (~65 mph), "Service CVT Power Reduced" warning appeared, complete loss of acceleration. I had to press accelerator to floor to avoid crash. I managed to drive approx 1 mile to emergency stop at [XXX] Fenimore Cooper Service Area, [XXX]. My family with 2 young children was terrified, we had to stop and rest in service area. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED FATAL CRASH - Trucks behind me at 70 mph, no power, no way to accelerate. If I could not reach service area, we would have been rear-ended at high speed with 2 children in car. This is not just breakdown, this is life-threatening defect.

• VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

  The buttons on the steering wheel that set the cruise control stick and so do the buttons that turn the safety features on and off.

• ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  The contact owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that after the son started the vehicle, white exhaust smoke suddenly emerged from the engine compartment and entered the vehicle's cabin. The engine was turned off, and the vehicle was towed to a dealer. The dealer diagnosed that the engine had sustained a catastrophic failure; however, the cause of the failure had not been determined. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced or rebuilt. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 98,000.

• POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

  On 6/22/2026, my vehicle was towed due to loss of power, excessive oil consumption, and excessive vibration, and unable to start. These issues have been ongoing since October 2025. Nissan dealership informed me that I needed a new throttle body and an oil change. Against my better judgement, I paid $1374.02 to replace the part. Two weeks later, My engine started making knocking noises, excessive vibration and completely shut down. Subsequently, I discovered that there is a recall for my vehicle directly related to engine oil bearing failure(NHTSA 26V080, AND Throttle body(NHTSA 26V081). This is an unresolved recall issue and this is both frustrating and disturbing because the manufacture is trying to use delay tactics and avoiding my free repair. This dealer improperly denies a legitimate safety recall when they are required to inspect parts, update software and replace damaged parts at no cost to me. I was told since my warranty has expired, it will not be covered. To say I am baffled, is an understatement. This has nothing to do with my warranty expiration, rather everything to do with over 642,000 U.S. SUV(model years 2023-2025) Nissan Rogue safety campaign. My vehicle is a 2023 and I am asking for some assistance with enforcing the company to honor this recall. In the end, these franchise dealerships want to save money but had no problem taking my money when the vehicle was purchased. More disturbing, my vehicle neither has not been torn down nor any diagnostic code been confirmed. After asking why, I was told that the engine is locked up and it will not show. Please assist me with my refund to out of pocket expense with throttle body and a new engine asap. Thanks.

• POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

  Whilst driving my 2023 Rogue the AWD light came on with a warning MALFUNCTION see owner’s manual and the check engine light came on. The start/stop/ idle feature turned off at the same time.. I was not able to stop so I reduced my speed from 55 to 40 and proceeded to finish the drive an additional 12 miles. I parked the vehicle and called for an appt at Nissan. I took the car in for service and when I got there I showed them the pic of what the dashboard was reading. I later received a text that no warning lights came on when the service tech attempted to drive it to make his report. I was recommended to pick up the vehicle and if it happened again to return. I cannot and will not drive this vehicle. I have only been driving the car for 7 months and this is the second issue I have had with it. I do not feel safe or comfortable driving it.

• UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE

  I turned on my car and it started smoking. (White smoke out of the exhaust). I decided to drive it to the nearest Nissan dealership (approximately 4.7 miles). I noticed a sputtering and loss of power while driving. Approximately 3 miles into the drive, the check engine light and see owner’s manual warning popped up on the dash. I noticed the engine temperature was really high, and I noticed a dramatic loss of power. I turned on my hazards and I pulled into auto zone which was along the route. I put coolant into it and the engine began struggling to even start. I got it started and attempted to drive the remaining mile to the dealership. I wasn’t able to get enough power to enter traffic safely. I reversed by putting it in neutral. I then called a tow truck and had it towed to the dealership.

• ENGINE

  The engine failed, and yes its available for inspection, my safety was put at risk due to the white billowing smoke out the exhaust and the smell entering in the vehicle while driving down the interstate, i proceeded to pull off onto an exit and stop at a red light and my car made me put into park and then proceeded to not crank or move other then neutral, The problem was originally part of an active recall of R25D10 Reprogramming the ECM, and P4A470 replacing the turbo hose. I originally brought my vehicle to Nissan Dealership to have those fixed on February 6th 2026. However after finding that my vehicle ended up with low oil and dried my entire system of coolant, and then proceeded to turn off in traffic on August 22nd 2026, I became aware of an extended recall that did not notify me or my specific Vin yet in the system, however the recall had been upgraded since February 11th 2026. The only warning lights were saying I needed an oil change soon, the check service warning, and the coolant temperature gauge getting hot when my engine was needing to drive, and before shutting off the car told me to put into park, pressing on the gas would not move the car. The new recall codes are R25E2, and R25E3?

• ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  The contact's mother owns a 2023 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving 70 MPH, the vehicle lost power with the message "Engine Malfunction - Power Reduced" displayed. The vehicle went into LIMP Mode and was towed to the dealer. The dealer initially replaced the water pump under warranty; however, several months later, the failure reoccurred, and the vehicle was towed back to the dealer, and the mass airflow sensor code was retrieved. The contact declined to pay the estimate provided by the dealer and sought a second opinion from an independent mechanic. The independent mechanic retrieved codes associated with the throttle body, knock sensor, and mass airflow sensor. The mechanic replaced the mass airflow sensor and the throttle body, but the failure persisted. Additional tests indicated an Engine Control Module failure, which the mechanic associated with NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V437000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer acknowledged the report but refused to provide additional assistance because the vehicle had previously been repaired under the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

• VISIBILITY

  Trunk window randomly blew out it sounded like somebody shot a gun at the car it was that loud. Did not hit a bump or anything it just randomly happened while driving early in the morning. Glass shattered everywhere.

• ENGINE

  While driving my 2023 Nissan Rogue at approximately 65 mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power while in motion, creating a serious risk of a crash and placing my safety and the safety of other motorists at risk. There were no oil warning lights, malfunction indicator lights, or other warnings indicating an impending engine failure. After losing power, the vehicle would not restart and was completely undriveable. It had to be towed to an authorized Nissan dealership. The dealership initially advised that the no-start condition was related to the battery cable and required me to pay for a battery cable repair. My battery was only a few months old and independently tested as good. The vehicle remained inoperable after the battery cable repair, and I was subsequently informed that the engine had failed. During the oil-pan inspection, the Nissan technician documented the inspection by video and specifically identified metallic debris in the oil pan. The dealership also reported sludge. I retained the dealership’s video documentation. My vehicle is subject to a Nissan safety recall involving engine bearing degradation that can result in engine failure and loss of motive power. The recall remedy includes inspection of the oil pan for metallic debris and engine replacement when necessary. Despite the loss of power at approximately 65 mph, engine failure, and metallic debris identified by its own technician, Nissan denied the recall repair based on sludge. Nissan Consumer Affairs also denied my escalation. I am requesting NHTSA review Nissan’s refusal to perform the safety recall remedy and determine whether the recalled bearing condition caused or contributed to this failure. The vehicle remains at the Nissan dealership and is available for inspection.
