I love my Rogue. There is not one thing that I am unhappy with. Driving the car is a pleasure especially when hauling people and things. It handles well and I especially appreciate all the safety features.

This is a solidly built and reliable small SUV, with everything you want or need in a dependable vehicle. It has enough get up and go for all but the serious race car fanatic and handles like a dream. I've never been happier with a car....or truck.

Aside from the look.....nothing else is good

Purchased new in 2016, now it has 52000K (32000Miles). I have been to a dealership about 12+ times. Suspension problems are nonstop problems. Joints, strut, shock absorber, links bla bla bla. It doesn't stop. A/C sucks. If you live in Canada, you will freeze. In the summer.....good luck. A/C flow is not good. Annoying clicking noise in lower speed from the transmission???? What is going on. At Nissan......"that is Normal". Verdict: no more Nissan (3th one)

Do your research, performance, savings, practical use of the SUV. The price range compare to others same size weight and features.( Honda CRV, Toyota RAV4, Kia San Fe. Nissan Rogue base on the price is a better buy.Okay after 4 years paint comein off in roof even if we detail the car every 8 months, MPG is a lie you get 24 or 22mpg not 32mpg my wife is a safe and very slow driver and the best she has done is 26mpg. The car is not worth $32,000 or $35,000. Cute,style but l did overrated the quality of the car.Sorry my mistake Nissan offer to pay 60% of paint job to fixed the roof but my view no car should lose is paint in 4 years(and we took care of the car ) My other nissan Pathfinder Sl paint job lasted 16 years. Today's quality nissan cars leave lots to desire. Will not buy again a Nissan a loyal customer from 24 years.

Just about one month in to owning Rogue SL AWD and loving it so far. Very comfortable ride with all the modern bells and whistles, at least with the Premium Package.

Suspension Problems - Buyers Beware!!!

Less than 1,000 miles on the vehicle and I start hearing loud popping noises when turning. The first time I take the vehicle back to the dealer they tell me it's a known problem and they are waiting on Nissan USA for a technical bulletin. Fast forward to today, I've got around 25K miles and have had my suspension fixed 3 times for the same popping noise. The vehicle has a hard idle and the headlines vibrate, which is unpleasant to watch while you are sitting in traffic. I wish that I had never purchased this vehicle and seriously considering dumping it before the factory warranty has expired.

2016 NISSAN ROUGE VIBRATIONS

I loved my Rouge at first. My 2016 Rouge vibrates at a low speed and idols. Its been in the shop two different times and was told that they just do that. It did not do that for the first half year. I am very dissapointed and probably will trade it in, and not for another Nissian. Sorry update 3/21/18: its been in the shop a third time, still vibrates, they said not as bad as it was. I cant trade it in yet because It only has trade in value that I still owe on and I put $5.000 down. Cant afford to trade in.

Now I've had the car for over two years and I still like it. I would prefer a larger car though, I can't afford it. The only complaint I have is that it has and continues to make a whistling noise from the driver's side wheel. My mechanic has not been able to correct it. And I will not go to the dealership.
