PURGE VALVE CONNECTOR, and CVT TRANAMISSION

Went to Patterson Nissan, Longview Tx. Check engine light was on. Found a broken wire on the purge valve connnector. After 2 days, went back to dealer as they had not contacted me on doing the repair. The dealer wanted $1,700.00 to fix a broken wire on this connector. Said the whole wire harness had to be replaced. (For real) they said it was a comon problem. Nissan never mentioned the TSB, but it is a Technical service bulletin, advising this can happen. Fyi.... local garage, Kilgore Automotive, fixed my broken wire on my Nissan. Cost.... $65.00 There is a TSB (technical Service Bulletin) out from Nissan, on this very same problem, as it is a known existing problem! Yet, Patterson Nissan of Longview either does not know about it, or they are trying to stick it to customers, to get this corrected. There is a "pig tail" available online, to fix this too. It is about $140.00, installed! Wonder why Patterson could not do that, as well!!! BEWARE of Patterson Nissan is either not aware of this, or were trying to screw me. Jury is out on that. Also, on the CVT TRANSMISSION, Nissan says if you use any replaement fluid, rather than their iwn, it will void the warranty. Their fluid is two to three times the price of other fluids... beware!

This Nissan Rogue SL AWD and I got it brand new. had a 2008 fully loaded SL I fell in love with it. I had to get one, coming from a 2014 Nissan Sentra SR to a Rogue SL was Great comfort is amazing,, pick up is better could be a little better but its a 4 cyl. Also the Bose audio was the best sell for me I love my music, GPS is great but I am pretty upset we have to pay almost $200 just to update the maps. also the Nissan connect app is to die for forgot to lock your car? no problem use the app... with a small charge of $20 a month now that stinks to!! but other then that the car is amazing I have had it since July 21st 2016 I just hit 26k miles and I love driving it , my miles will tell that to LOL.

I rented a Nissan Rogue 2016 in Las Vegas. Handling was so so as the car was taking inclination when turning and the driving wheel was very vague around the middle point. But the worse has to come. A crazy driver crossed my road twice and I had to make an emergency braking. Then big surprise: front wheels blocked and no ABS did not engage. I had to pump the brake as it was current 20 years ago! I thought that my last time was coming speed was decreasing very slowly. Hopefully not collision occurred. What a dangerous car...

Do not let sales staff convince you otherwise. do your homework and Google it... Nissan hid behind the letter of the warranty and not the spirit of it.. --shame

I have had my 2016 Nissan Rogue for about 3 1/2 years now and last month I had to replace my battery and pay full price along with diagnostic fee The last 2 1/2 weeks my car has left my kids and I stranded on the side of the freeway 2 times. Ovisously I had to pay for a tow because it was out of towing distance, which didn't make it better. I was left without a car both times for 4 days while in the shop. I had to pay 2 times for a diagnostic fee. The first time it was fixed and given back. They said it was the CVT unit and needed to be replaced. Apparently everything was replaced. They assured me I would not have any problem, until 1 week later my car breaks down AGAIN! Now they say they need to replace my whole transmission ! That it was a faulty body valve, REALLY on a brand new car. I took it off the lot with only 5 miles. I will be trading this car in because from 2012 and up, nissan's transmissions are poorly made and will always give problems regardless of a new transmission.
Is this really a CVT?

Had a Maxima for six years before trading for this vehicle. There is absolutely no comparison in performance of the transmissions. This Rogue behaves more like a standard 4-speed automatic. Unpleasant for me because the Maxima shifting was so much smoother, responsive and predictable. Update: This vehicle is practical, functional, economical. It is a good size and nicely appointed. It has ZERO fun quotient! Engineers must have designed it and built it on a Monday.

2016 Nissan Rogue SL AWD with Premium package.Huge mistake buying this car. Trouble from get go. Struts and suspension were bad from two weeks into it. Had to drive 6 hours RT twice through sleet and snow to get it fixed. Bad paint job...the traveling really messed it up. They replaced front struts and springs, which did work but who is to know if the problem would come back. Told me that the factories buy the parts from different companies and some are bad and some good. They left grease and some kind of oil all over front end and doors. When I took it to be detailed, they thought that it was a used car. By the time that it was fixed, I was so tired of the blah drive and cheap materials used to build the car inside and out, that I finally traded it in for a Mazda CX-5 GT with tech and activesense. Painful, but worth it. No comparison in performance and quality and appearance. The Nissan forward emergency brakes are a joke. I do very much miss the birds eye view camera and the power rear door, but everything else makes up for it. I do not like that Nissan wants you to pay for their Nissan Connect, when Mazda includes the features in the vehicle for the one time price of car. The Rogues cheap looking leather doesn't even wrap around the inner sides of the seat. The drivers seat made me limp every time I got out of the car. The lights are awful when you go downhill. The steering is awful. I could never relax on winding roads, instead of natural mindless steering on a decent vehicle. The Nissan actually had a difficult time going over the little bump to enter my garage....I had to very carefully gas it a little to enter. I am pretty sure that the MPG that the car showed on the screen were not true at all, because I was constantly filling it up, whereas the Mazda shows the same good mileage, but the tank remains fairly full for a long time. The Mazda gas tank holds less than a gallon more than the Nissan, but not enough to make such a considerable difference. Nissan needs to build better cars, instead of trying, unsuccessfully, to add fun frills. Imagine, it had to be a pretty bad experience to do such a drastic thing .... taking such a loss trading in a brand new vehicle.

I bought this car very abruptly my old vehicle was breaking down and i needed a new one quickly. After going to ford and having a terrible experiance i decided to look a new nissan store that just opened. Big mistake, in total after interest i payed over 39k for a 24k car now this is my fault for getting a bad rate on interest. The car was great at first i loved the ease of getting in and out, the forward visibilty, etc. However, blind spots wear quite a problem in traffic especially changing lanes. But, this stuff i could live with, it was until my transmission started to change abruptly, i took it to the dealer <its about 3 months owning the vehicle with 3600 miles on it atm> and they flashed the pc, which seemed to fix it a bit. Then my it would acclerate without my intention speciaclly when i would brake. I took it in and they said they could not find a problem. It happened 9 more times after that i brought it in 4 times in 2 weeks. They blamed it on me saying i was hitting the gas peddle while braking! EXCUSE ME!!! i have been driving since i was 14 and i was 46 at the time l, im pretty sure i know where my foot is. I knew this was going to get worse, and it did. I was driving going 35 on a street, car ahead applies breaks, i see and start to apply mine i was coming to a stop roughly a car length away from the car ahead when the engined reved up and drove forward. I was terrified i grab the emergency break lever pulling it trying to stop the car but it was to late and i slammed into the car ahead i tried to shift to park but it would not let me. I finally was able to shift into neutral i kept the handbrake on and turned off the vehicle. Thankfully the damage was not too severe. I bring it too the dealer and told them what happened and said i wanted an investigation done on the vehicle. This was about 3 days before the great flood of 2016 happend in louisiana. We were trapped for about two weeks water blocking our exit. My husband couldnt work for a whole month and they threatened to take the car because we couldnt pay. They would not understand that there was a giante flood and my husband was out of work. I told them give us to midway next month and they said no. They came and searched for the car and i gladly gave them the keys and say "thank you for taking the trash out." We are still recovering from the financial blow till this day. I went a whole two years without a vehicle. I was finally able to get one a 2018 toyota corrola le for 18k however because fo two repots from the flood the interest made it 39k. Even so i still feel 10x safer in this car then that. Metal death trap called a nissan rouge.
