My nissan rogue has experienced the same issue 3 times in a 2 month period. 1st time - driving, crossing a busy intersection front end shuddered, shook heavily, check engine light came on. i was able to drive it to local mechanic who ran diagnostics and stated there were too many codes regarding the electric system and recommended i take it to dealership. took it to local dealer, diagnostics were run again, and they reported they were not sure of the issue, suspected damage to the maf sensor (which was then throwing off the report of all other sensors). they replaced it with nissan manufactured part and electric tape and i was told it was good to go. 2nd time - stationary making a left onto busy main street, car shuddered, stalled, no check engine light completely stopped. unable to drive it, when changing gears it just coasted backwards (due to the hill i was on). had it towed to the same dealer, told the same thing as previous visit 'not sure what's wrong, probably the sensor,' was told they replaced it again with nissan manufactured part and 'taped up real good this time.' however could not guarantee it wouldn't happen again, also still no idea what exactly caused the stalling. 3rd time- driving straight after being stopped at res light, car stalls, engine light back on, and unable to drive it. the car coasted to the nearest shoulder and now waiting for a tow truck to take me to a different dealership, whom hopefully can fix the problem that continues to happen.

Not driving the vehicle for few hours a loud knocking sound comes from engine while idling after few minutes it goes away. took it to dealership they can't diagnose the problem.

I was travelling in my vehicle when i came to a red traffic light and stopped. once the light turned green, i proceeded to go forward when my vehicle seemed to slowed down on its own. when i stepped on the gas pedal, it seemed the vehicle didn't want to move forward. the other issue is that this morning i was driving in my vehicle when all of a sudden some sensors seemed to be set off. i then pulled over and turned of the ignition. i was then able to start my vehicle and proceed to my destination without another occurrence.

When driving in snowy conditions, the air intake filter clogs with snow resulting in an immobilizing loss of engine power. when driving from colorado springs co to lawrence ks in march 2019 while it was snowing, we lost power and had to stop three times to clear the snow from the air intake filter because the engine lost power and could not ascend the rather gentle hills in kansas on interstate i-70. this causes a very dangerous situation for two reasons. first, the very slow moving or stalled vehicle causes a hazard for the other traffic is travelling at normal highway speeds. secondly, stopping along the highway during snowy conditions to clear the air filter puts the operator of the stalled car in danger as well. i have driven many other different vehicles in snowy conditions and have never had this problem. i believe the 2018 nissan rogue sport has a design flaw that allows the air intake filter to easily become clogged with snow. the rogue sport funnels the intake air directly from the grill, while other vehicles seem to have placed the air intake in a more protected location in the engine compartment.

Takata recall. i brought a brand new 2018 nissan rogue in april of 2018. my engine light came on and the car only has 9000 miles on it. i took in to the dealer and they claim the light is on because a rodent chewed the wires belonging to the harness. at 1st i was given a loner vehicle and told my transmission was having problems. on friday i took the car to the dealership. they were very unprofessional from the beginning. now 4 days later they tell me a mouse ate my wires and that's not something they cover for a harness and now they want to reverse the charges for the loaner car making it a rental. also my gas gauge off and on displays empty and the car is full of gas. my car is driven everyday there is no way a rodent if any type would even ever survive i'm my car. this is utterly ridiculous. nissan just does not want to repair the vehicle. they told me it's not there problem it's a machine and they break down.

Cvt. rpms rising and falling without driver input, without any reason. this is a major hazard! car fails to respond to gas pedal, causing serious hazardous issues entering traffic. car loses power on highway. this is not safe!

When the engine is started cold. sitting for 6 hours or more. there is a rattling sound coming from the engine as if there were too much engine bearing clearance. after 2 seconds the noise goes away. dealer says they can not duplicated it but i have 2 audios of it and presented to them.

2018 nissan rogue sv purchased early march 2018. currently has less than 1,700 miles on it. three times in less than three weeks, the automatic braking system has engaged while driving down a major roadway. each time, the warning lights and dashboard have flashed and beeped. only the front passenger brake has engaged, resulting in a major "grinding" noise and a serious jerk to the right. the most recent incident happened with a vehicle in my blind spot and almost resulted in a collision. i have taken the vehicle to the dealership, where they have been unable to replicate the problem and have told me there is no known issue or error code. the first time to the dealership, they allegedly reset the sensors and told me there was nothing wrong. thursday, a week after it came home from the dealership, it happened again. my car is again at the dealership. nissan continues to tell me this is not a known issue and they have no codes for similar complaints, but based on the number of complaints on this and other sites, it appears there are several known issues. i am now in a loaner rogue allegedly waiting for nissan engineers to come look at my car, which may take a week or a month. in addition to the brake issue, the engine in this vehicle also ramps up to high rpms at low speeds (as if you were punching the gas when you're not) and idles very, very loudly.

Tl* the contact leased a 2018 nissan rogue. when the vehicle was parked, the engine indicator illuminated. there was no warning message displayed. the vehicle was taken to fuccillo nissan (3893 ny-31, liverpool, ny 13090, 315-944-3200) where the technician reprogrammed the computer and the indicator dimmed. the failure recurred and the vehicle was taken back to the same dealer. the technician diagnosed that the fuel sending unit needed to be replaced. the technician stated that the part was unavailable and would be available in approximately one month. the contact was provided a loaner vehicle. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 258.

I purchased my 2018 rogue sl awd in mid march 2018 and i have been dealing with issues since march 27th. the first issue that i've noticed was a very major incident that has happened 3 times while driving on the interstate (got video) the (feb) forward emergency braking engaged while driving luckily no other vehicles were around! allegedly this issue was rectified on july 11th! also the audio system does a reset and locks up most times! i have to turn the vehicle off to get it to work! the wheels have spots on them very noticeable when the sun reflects on them (have photo) the dealership fixed them looks good they claim they buff them out but they look brand new. i've been in a loaner vehicle since june 27th and it's july 12th 2017.5 rogue sl awd i've noticed a huge difference especially in mpg i'm currently getting 28.9 mpg and in my 2018 i'm getting an avg of 24-25mpg without a/c running! the reason why we are getting less gas mileage in the 2018 awd is because the 4x4-i system is running 50% torque on rear wheels longer then needed! in the '17.5 it runs 50% torque in the first gear upon take off and then adjust as needed (switch your display to the 4x4-i and watch how long the torque is used on the rear wheels)! on a dry surface you do not need that much torque throughout the other gears! i pointed that out to the technician and he gave me a slight nod! (the accelerator sensor, yaw rate sensor or 4wd controller may not be working correctly!) and the final issue is the engine brake is not engaging when you slow down to between 25 to 40 mph the tech odometer should rise up to 2 to 4 rpm according to your speed while approaching a stoplight or stopping and in the 2018 it doesn't do that it rises up to about 1.5 rpms! you will probably not noticed that if you've never driven a nissan with a cvt in it! i hope this helps and we get the these fixed! *tt *tr
