Complaints

Engine 1

I am reporting a serious safety concern involving my 2022 Nissan Rogue equipped with the 1.5L engine. While driving in normal traffic, my vehicle suddenly displayed an "Engine Malfunction" warning with no prior indication of an engine problem. Immediately after the warning appeared, the vehicle rapidly lost power and could no longer maintain the speed of surrounding traffic. I had very limited ability to accelerate or safely maneuver, creating a significant risk of being struck from behind or becoming stranded in an active travel lane. There was no advance warning that a catastrophic engine failure was imminent. The vehicle ultimately became inoperable and was towed to an authorized Nissan dealership. The dealership diagnosed the engine with coolant leaking into the cylinders and determined that replacement of the engine assembly, turbocharger, and catalytic converter was required at an estimated cost exceeding $10,000. My vehicle had previously experienced engine-related concerns and was included in Recall Campaign R25D1. That recall was completed, but less than 30 days later the engine failed catastrophically. Based on this sequence of events, I am concerned that the existing recall may not identify or address all engine conditions that can result in sudden loss of motive power and catastrophic engine failure. I have since learned of numerous publicly reported complaints from other owners describing similar failures involving coolant intrusion, sudden loss of power, and complete engine replacement in 2022 Nissan Rogue vehicles equipped with this engine. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether these engine failures represent a broader safety defect and whether additional corrective action is necessary to protect the driving public.

Transmission 2

Problem: CVT transmission failure with code P187E at 73500 miles. Nissan dealer confirmed clean fluid but quoted $9800 for transmission replacement. Vehicle still drives but repeatedly enters failsafe/limp mode, limiting speed and acceleration without warning. This occurred multiple times on the highway, creating a serious safety hazard due to sudden loss of power in trafic. This is a know issue with hundreds of similar complaints filed for 2022 Rogue 1.5 CVT models. The failure pattern is consistent: code P187E, failsafe mode activation, and dealer recommending full CVT replacement even with proper maintenance. Safety concern: Sudden loss of power while driving on highway. Vehicle speed drops unexpectedly from 65+ mph to under 40 mph when failsafe mode engages. This creates high risk of rear-end collision, especially durng merging or in heavy traffic. My family and other drivers are at risk.

Engine 1

I have a 2022 Nissan Rogue SV that had an engine replaced due to a faulty head gasket in March of 2024 and my vehicle on 6/15/2026 had a rough idle of the engine and irregular RPM's which then led to the RPM's dropping to zero while in a stationary drivethru lane. The vehicle then showed a caution warning indicating to shift the car into Neutral. After getting the car towed to the dealership for diagnostics it was determined that the vehicle requires a new engine. The likely cause according to the service advisor was a failed head gasket, which was the same reason for the first engine replacement. Despite the fact the engine will be covered under warranty, the possibility of the engine failure occurring on the highway while traveling at a high rate of speed, and potentially stranding me on the highway with no warning is a high cause for concern given the vehicle would have went into limp mode, which limits the vehicle to less than 15 MPH.

Engine 1

June 8th, 2026 I was driving to work when my car began to have problems accelerating. My cars acceleration was inconsistent and would not allow for appropriate throttle response. After realizing this was not a fuel delivery problem I tried to come to a safe area to pull over in which I could not do so rounding a roundabout. After making it through the roundabout my cars acceleration was depleting fast. I pulled over as much as I could before I put the car in park and turned the engine off. After the engine was turned off I attempted to restart it. Upon restarting the vehicle began to shake violently as if the back tires were still in rotation and began making an awful noise. I turned the car off and called someone to come assist me. Moments later a random civilian operating under the name “bulldogs handyman and roadside assistance” pulled up behind me. He attempted to help me restart the car to understand what was going on. The car at this point could not turnover. He then asked me “are you out of gas” because visually my car was perfectly fine. I was indeed at half a tank. The man then plugged a code reader into my car and received the code A11P7. At this time a light finally went off on my dash board showing “check engine” symbol. We called Nissan due to the recent recall on my car and had it towed there. The Nissan dealership claims my EGR cooler failed resulting in coolant to enter my engine and overheat the engine causing it to fail. However, Nissan refuses to check the oil pan because the code specifically installed for the recall did not populate. Their diagnoses is plausible however, I just had a multi point inspection 4 months ago by this exact dealership. My cars mileage is 71,315 miles. All maintenance is up to date and I never had a coolant leak. I have had many people INCLUDING EMPLOYEES tell me about the EGR cooler failing and how it is a known problem for Nissan. The EGR cooler needs to be inspected in these models! They are defective.

Engine 1

I own a 2022 Nissan Rogue with approx 71,139 miles on. While driving on the freeway at 65mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power and became disabled. Prior to the failure, the vehicle did not dispaly an overheating warning, coolant warning, or other indication the engine was overheating or experiencing coolant loss. The vehicle was being driven normally and was on the way to routine maintenance and fuel stop when the failure occurred. An independent repair facility diagnosed coolant intrusion into the combustion chamber and determined the engine had overheated and required replacement. The vehicle's sudden loss of propulsion occurred without warning creating a safety hazard for myself and my daughter as I was forced to coast to a stop in the Gore Area of the freeway just as you entered the [XXX] from [XXX] due to the inability to maintain speed on the freeway. This was the safest area for us to park but it was terrifying as cars zoomed past us from both sides. I am concerned that the engine failed without adequate warning to the driver and that similar complaints have been noted by several others describing the same issue with the same year, make and model as my car. Multiple reports have said it occurred while on the freeway, making this a greater concern for safety. I took my car to Nissan who stated they see the coolant intrusion, but that it was not covered under recall. I asked what caused the internal leak, to which they replied that would require them to take apart the engine to examine further at my cost. I advised the issue with the car not indicating it was even out of coolant to cause it to overheat was concerning because even if I replace the engine, if the electrical failure isn't addressed I could run into the same issue and this time actually get into an accident that could cause death or serious injury. My car is still at Nissan Mission Hills Dealership and available for inspection upon request. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I own a 2022 Nissan Rogue that has experienced multiple critical safety defects. The vehicle has repeatedly lost engine power without warning, exhibited delayed acceleration, and failed to engage gears—creating dangerous driving conditions that have put me at risk. Service History and Warranty Disputes: February 20, 2026: I brought the vehicle to the dealership after experiencing loss of engine power. Diagnostics revealed that the EGR Pressure Sensor had internally shorted, causing a loss of communication diagnostic trouble code. The service department replaced the exhaust gas pressure sensor assembly. Despite the defect being a manufacturing fault and my purchase of a wraparound warranty, I was charged out of pocket for this repair. When I questioned the warranty coverage, I was transferred to consumer affairs and informed that only the dealership determines what is covered—an unsatisfactory response to a valid warranty claim. May 20, 2026: I returned to the dealership after the vehicle lost engine power again and lurched violently forward with jerking motions. The service department replaced the engine mounts. However, after only one day of driving, the same dangerous symptoms returned. May 29, 2026: I brought the vehicle back to the dealership for recurring loss of engine power, delayed acceleration, and violent lurching. The service department replaced the EGR system, which subsequently caused the spark plugs to warp. I was charged $400 for this additional repair, despite these being recurring manufacturing defects that should be covered under warranty. Conclusion: This vehicle demonstrates a pattern of dangerous, unresolved mechanical failures. The repeated issues—combined with warranty coverage disputes and repeated out-of-pocket charges for factory defects—indicate serious safety and reliability concerns with this 2022 Rogue.

During acceleration engine makes a strange noise as if marbles were rolling around in the engine, or a knocking noise more noticeable when the engine is cold. Dealership says this is a normal sound on Nissan Rogues with the 1.5 cyl turbo charged engine. When I use 89 octane fuel the knocking sound seems less pronounced but, The manual on my 2022 Nissan Rogue says to use 87 octane. Is there anything we can do if the dealership refuses to acknowledge there is a problem which needs to be addressed?

There have been a couple recalls for Transmission/Engine Bearing and the Nissan Dealership has serviced the recalls. However, today May 8, 2022 while driving on the highway the check engine light appeared and a notification appeared check oil immediately. Then my engine and Transmission blew on the highway at 65 miles per hour causing my Nissan to immediately stop. I was able to quickly put my hazard light on an move the Nissan off the highway and shut the vehicle off. After about 10 minutes I started the Nissan Rogue again and checked for any new messages/notifications. The Engine check light was still on and the check oil/change oil immediately appeared. The vehicle would not drive over 15 miles per hour. There was no power. I contacted the Nissan dealership and explained what happened the dealership has my Nissan Rogue and wants me to come in and trade my car to purchase a new vehicle.

Subject: Safety Complaint and Recall Concern – 2022 Nissan Rogue Engine Failure and Resulting Consumer Harm (VIN: [XXX] ) To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint to report a catastrophic engine failure involving my 2022 Nissan Rogue (VIN: [XXX] ), and to request review of potential safety and recall-related concerns. In November 2025, while I still owned and was actively financing this vehicle, it experienced a sudden and complete engine failure attributed to an engine control module (ECM) / engine-related issue. This failure rendered the vehicle inoperable without warning. At the time of failure, I was not informed by the dealership of any existing or potential recall, defect investigation, or manufacturer responsibility that may have applied to this condition. I was advised that the vehicle was no longer viable and was directed into purchasing a replacement vehicle. As a result, approximately $17,958.15 of remaining debt from the failed Rogue was rolled into the financing of a replacement vehicle, creating significant and ongoing financial harm. I have since become aware of recalls and defect investigations affecting Nissan Rogue vehicles in this model range, including conditions involving engine failure risks that may require inspection, repair, or replacement at no cost to the consumer. My concerns are as follows: 1. Whether the engine failure I experienced is related to known defects or recall conditions involving the Nissan Rogue. 2. Whether adequate notice, disclosure, or remedy information was available or communicated to consumers and dealerships at the time of my vehicle failure. 3. Whether this failure represents a broader safety issue that may affect other drivers. 4. Whether consumers may be incurring avoidable financial harm due to lack of awareness of recall-related remedies. This failure created both a potential safety risk and significant financial consequences that I believe may have been preventable if INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On 4/22/26, while driving on a main road, my 2022 Nissan Rogue with about 74000 miles displayed an engine malfunction warning and went into reduced power mode. This created a safety concern because the vehicle lost normal power and acceleration. This is a safety concern because the vehicle lost power in traffic. I had the vehicle inspected by a Nissan dealer, who diagnosed a failed EGR pressure sensor and a clogged EGR screen. I was given a repair estimate of 2808 dollars. I am reporting this issue because reduced power while driving can affect safe operation in traffic.

My 2022 Nissan Rogue has experienced repeated engine failures beginning at approximately 88,000 miles, including four separate incidents despite repairs performed at authorized dealerships. The vehicle exhibited engine knocking and drivability issues prior to failure. Nissan later issued a recall related to engine issues, and recall service was performed on January 29, 2026. The engine failed catastrophically less than 30 days later and was diagnosed with coolant intrusion into the cylinders requiring full engine replacement. The recall inspection appears to have been limited to a computer scan and did not identify the underlying issue. This raises concerns that the defect may not be properly detectable through the current recall procedure. I am reporting this as a potential safety concern due to repeated engine failure and loss of confidence in vehicle reliability.

UNKNOWN: ASSESSMENT - On April 2nd early morning around 5 am, I left Kaaawa, HI zip code 96730 and headed to Kaneohe, zip code 96744. When I left home the temperature was around 67degree F and there was a light rain. About 15 minutes later at the Hygenic Store, the temperature dropped to around 64. The front windshield began to fog; I turned on the window defrost vent set at 70degree. I heard a lot pop/crack coming from the passenger side, lower frame area of the windshield. When I glanced, I did not see anything at the time. When this happened, there were no other cars in front of me. Later at home, I checked again, did not see anything. Two days later, I got into the car and there was a crack from the lower frame moving up the glass about 7 inches. As the days went by the crack got longer. I did not see a point of impact. As far as I could tell, the crack started from the frame. Unfortunately, I did not take any photos. I contacted Patrick at windward nissan dealership parts department directly (his personal cell phone); he told me to utilize Ace auto glass. There was no inspection by dealership or insurance. Utilized Safelite for replacement. There was no warning of any failure by cars system.

The issue first began in February 2026, when the vehicle started showing signs of engine malfunction and poor performance, which ultimately led to a full engine replacement by an authorized Nissan dealership. After the engine replacement, the vehicle continued to experience serious and recurring drivability issues. On multiple occasions, including March 16–17, 2026, and most recently on April 11, 2026, the vehicle failed to accelerate properly even when the gas pedal was fully pressed. The vehicle would move extremely slowly and felt as if it was stuck in a low gear, with loud engine noise and lack of power. This created a significant safety hazard, as I was unable to accelerate normally in traffic, increasing the risk of being rear-ended or unable to safely merge or cross intersections. Additional symptoms included: •Engine shaking while idling •Intermittent loss of power and poor throttle response •Transmission not shifting properly •A/C blowing warm air at idle but cold while driving •A diagnostic issue indicating loss of communication with a control module (VCR/module) The problem is intermittent and unpredictable, making it difficult to demonstrate on demand, but it has occurred multiple times in real driving conditions. The vehicle has been inspected multiple times by an authorized Nissan dealership, including technicians and a shop foreman. The dealership has stated they were sometimes unable to reproduce the issue and have attempted repairs such as performing an idle relearn, but the problem persists. Despite major repairs, including a full engine replacement, the vehicle continues to experience dangerous loss of acceleration and drivability issues, posing an ongoing safety risk. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

I am reporting a safety defect involving my 2022 Nissan Rogue related to NHTSA Recall 25V437 (engine bearing failure). Prior to complete engine failure, I experienced multiple instances of sudden loss of power while driving at highway speeds, creating a serious safety hazard. In one instance, this nearly resulted in a multi-vehicle accident in heavy traffic. The vehicle also exhibited additional symptoms consistent with the recall, including engine shaking, knocking noises, rough riding and hard shifting, burning smell, and warning lights. Nissan performed the recall service, which consisted of reprogramming the Engine Control Module (ECM). However, this software update did not repair or replace the defective engine components. The vehicle’s condition worsened after the recall service. The engine ultimately failed completely at approximately 122,000 miles, shortly after the recall repair was completed. This indicates that the recall remedy is ineffective and does not adequately address the safety risk, as a software update cannot prevent or correct pre-existing mechanical failure of engine bearings. I am concerned that other vehicles with this defect remain at risk of sudden power loss and potential crashes despite having the recall performed.
