Rogue

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Rogue. While driving various speeds or upon starting the vehicle, the chassis control module, check engine, and traction control warning indicators illuminated. Also, the "see owner's manual" message was displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to Nissan of picayune (239 frontage rd, picayune, ms 39466 (601) 889-5454) where it was diagnosed that the throttle body needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred three days later. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the ECM needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired a second time, but the next day, the warning indicators and message reappeared. The contact took the vehicle back to the dealer a third time and was informed that the wiring harness between the throttle body and ECM needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired because the dealer could not guarantee that the failure would not recur. A few months later, the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who could not diagnose a failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

When the temperature is over 90 degrees and the car has been running for at least 10 minutes the car has acceleration issues. When at a full standstill such as at a stoplight the car will not accelerate quickly and respond to pedal pressure. When the pedal is floored and trying to start again it has a long delay like the transmission is in a high gear or is overheated. I know there have been many issues online about the cvt of the Rogue. This only seems to happen when it is hot out. There are also issues when going up an incline in hot temperature the car does not respond to pedal pressure and acceleration. This is a safety issue in that when trying to turn left at a light I expect my car to go and not stutter and there have been many close calls to being broadsided.

I was driving South on military trail preparing to turn right at pipers glen. The light was green and there was a white car in the middle lane waiting to enter military. I slowed down to make my turn and suddenly my car accelerated. If I continued to turn there was no doubt I would have hit the waiting car. I proceeded straight, passed this car and drove onto a grassy area. My front wheel hit the curb which slowed my car but pushed me along the side of the white car causing damage to both cars. The fire trucks came and a police car. Since no one was hurt I was instructed to leave my car there to be towed. My son picked me up and I called the towing co. About 1 hour later I was called and told the tow was on the way. When we arrived to where my car was I was surprised to see the front lights on. There was a motor noise and the hood was hot. Whenwe left the car there it was locked and the motor was not on. If this were not the case I would not have been able to lock this car having a keyless entry. I am concerned about ever driving this car with less than 10,000 miles. I called both Nissan and the repair company and reported what happened. They told me they would scan the car but sometimes nothing shows up. I use military trail almost every day and pipers glen leads to my home. I am happy that no one was hurt but haunted by realizing what may have happened if I attemped to make that right turn.both these roads are city streets.I have no picturesexcept for my memory.

The car has a keyless operation. After service an reprogramming for a cvt issue, the engine failed to start after sitting in the garage overnight. In order to start, the brake must be engaged before pushing the start button. This did not work and the start engine light did not come on. Pushing the start button resulted in clicking noise but the solenoid (if this car has one) did not engage. After trying several times and turning lights on and off, the car starts. I am concerned that the ignition would disengage while driving. Once the vehicle started, it did not shut off until I turned it off; but I haven't tested driving it. The car never did this until the computer reprogramming done this past Thursday February 24th when I had the car service before leaving on a trip.

I was driving up hill and pressed the brakes to turn right, and the brakes didn't came up, the car came to halt and then started rolling back wards. Now I tried to put the brakes but its stucked, I pressed the accelerator it didn't responded. Soon withing 4-5 sec the car picks up speed, I changed the mode to parking, nothing happened. It rolled down and fell into a ditch. Nothing seriously damaged. But I am scared to drive that car again. When the car was pulled from the ditch the brakes were still on. I pointed that out to the police. This is a new car just 2 months old. Didn't expect that from Nissan

Teering wheel vibrates at speeds 25-55 mph. Most of the vibration will stop if I drive in the sport mode. Have back to dealer three times, but no luck. They said other 2015 Rogue show the same problem, there is no tbs issued yet, so they basically don't know how to fix it. Two different dealers felt the vibrations. You can almost hear a like a harmonic noise when this happens. I have contacted Nissan and am waiting for a resolution or something. I asked Nissan to find a Rogue that doesn't vibrate or get out of my lease with my money back.

Vehicle stalls everyday ever since we first purchased the car in februar 2015. It stalls while at a stop light and while driving without any warning. The engine warning signal comes on after the stall. I brought my car to 2 different service locations (puente hills Nissan and imperio Nissan in irvine) but failed to detect the problem. This is very stressful situation where the technicians are not able to detect the issue. I searched and found that there's been a nationwide recall on 2014 Rogue on the same issue (see below): News: Nissan is recalling certain 2014 Nissan Rogue vehicles; fuel system, gasoline report receipt date: Apr 03, 2015 NHTSA campaign number: 15V197000 component(s): Fuel system, gasoline potential number of units affected: 76,242 April 2015 -- Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2014 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured June 11, 2013, to June 7, 2014. Improper nickel plating of components within the fuel pump may result in the fuel pump failing. If the fuel pump fails, the vehicle may stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in April 2015. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov

The car revs up to 5 rpms at 60mph like its stuck in neutral. Need to take the foot off the gas get down to 50mph and was able to get it back up to 65mph. I did this in rush hour traffic. I was afraid the person behind was going to hit to change speeds so fast. Nissan looked at the car today and said there wasn't an issue and I needed to do that to let the transmission catch up. Never heard of such a thing. My last Nissan at 98K died because of the transmission. Before it died it was doing the same thing.
