Everything I want in a small SUV!

I had been researching for 2 months on which small SUV I wanted. I had finally decided on the Nissan Rogue and I have never been happier! The 2 key factors I wanted most was plenty of back seat space and great gas mileage and my 2016 Rogue fits the bill on both! I am a 6' tall and i have plenty of head room and decent leg room and the back seat room is huge and the back seats even recline. Even the base model I drive has an elegant looking interior. It handles great on the road and rides very smooth! The miles per gallon on this SUV is amazing! Probably my most favorite feature is the 'eco button' located left of the steering wheel. This setting allows your vehicle to achieve the best gas mileage possible. I commute 30 miles back and forth to work 5 days a week and and I go 7 days before having to refill my tank. I have no complaints at all with My Rogue and I have not experienced the popping sounds some reviewers complained about coming from the wheels when i make turns. I am at 25,000 miles right now and everything is still smooth as silk. I am very satisfied with my Rogue!

If you're like me, and you are in the market for a midsize SUV, you're doing your research and reading all the reviews from reputable sites. Before I bought my 2017 Rogue SV AWD, I was driving a 2012 GMC Terrain (just so you understand where I'm coming from). The Terrain was a solid but unspectacular vehicle, and I really did not want to venture too far from that size of a vehicle. It gave me just enough trunk space for my German Shepherd, and enough back seat space for kids and adults alike, even those who are vertically gifted. I read a lot about the Rogue not having much power or pickup, and how the steering is sluggish. I also came across reviews where people said the sight lines are poor or they had trouble seeing. I've come to believe that these people were trolls from another car company! I've had my Rogue for two weeks now and I'm extremely impressed. It has all the space I need, it has fantastic torque off the line - so I can pass people when I need to - and I have not had any issues with vision or seeing out of the vehicle. The interior is luxurious, and it almost feels like you're sitting in a Lexus. I bought an SV AWD with the premium sound package and moon roof package. Honestly, I could probably do without both of them, but they're nice to have. The vehicle itself is fantastic and I want to encourage everyone to at least test drive one! I think you'll be as impressed as I was. And I hope my review helps, there weren't many about the 17 Rogues so I want to make sure I get the good word out!

I test drove the HR-V, Rav4, Forester, Tuscon, and CX-5 before choosing the Nissan Rogue. I purchased the SL w/ Platinum Package. The deciding factor was the intelligent cruise control feature with 0mpg stop & go. This feature is a life changer in big city stop & go traffic. Of the vehicles I test-drove, the forester was the only other vehicle with this feature. The Rav4, and CX-5 had a version of it, but it disabled below 20mph, and the Tuscon & HR-V didn't offer it at all. Overall I am very happy with the quality of my Rogue. The interior seems high-end and comfortable, way more so than the Forester. Nissan needs to look closer at the Owners Manual because the "how to" on the Lane Departure Warning, Lane Departure Prevention, and the Blind-Spot monitoring System doesn't match up with how it actually works in the car, which has caused me some frustrations. Memory seats, heated steering wheel, Siri-Hands-free are some of my favorite features, as well as the remote control start. The navigation system is ok, not terrible, but like most car navigation systems, it's not great with traffic and requires a few too many "clicks" to get what you need. I traded to the Rogue from an Acura RDX, and so far the Rogue seems on par with the quality I was used to.. The only downside is it's a bit more sluggish than I'd like.

Moving from a FWD Ford Focus 2012 to a 2017 AWD Rogue was a great decision! I tried the MX5, Escape, CRV and RAV4. The Rogue was by far the most comfortable and quiet. If you're someone that isn't concerned about 0 to 60 in 4 seconds and is looking for a vehicle that is fun to drive, comfortable, roomy and loaded with tech...this is your pick! The Rogue has the best tech features. the 7 inch display is nice at the SV level. Be sure to go with the Premium package and you get the best bang for your buck. You don't get the adjusting cruise control and lane assist (that's only on the SL) but you do get Blind Side Warning and full navigation. I'm almost 2 months into driving this and I'm still excited every time I get in. It handles excellent in the snow and the ambient sound in the cabin is almost non existent. I usually drive this in ECO mode and have been getting about 27 MPG which is lower than advertised but I feel as though that is always the case. I've been getting about 30 on the highway. I bought the 6 year 100K warranty and should be in good shape, though I'm not anticipating anything going wrong. I will continue to update!

Looking for a new SUV, I tried many of the small ones out there. When my daughter bought a Murano, I test drove a Rogue and fell in love. The ride is smooth, seats are comfortable and all the accessories it has are great. As far as slow, I think the ride is just so smooth, it doesn't feel like it has speed. I've had my rogue a month and not noticed any problem with acceleration. I feel very safe in my car and am thoroughly enjoying driving it everyday.

I absolutely love my Rogue. When I was car shopping late last year , I had read several reviews on the Rogue as well as several of the competitors in this class. I then set out to test drive my choices. They were the Honda CR-V , Toyota RAV4 , Subaru Forrester , and the Nissan Rogue.Most American made competitors didn’t make the cut mostly due to high cost and sub par reliability history. The Only consideration was the Ford Escape , but the comparable cost was not competitive. It’s way overpriced. In my test drives , I was least hopeful and most pleasantly surprised by the Rogue. I had read so many poor reviews based on the Rogues performance , acceleration and the cvt. The one I had the highest hopes for was the Crv. I drove it first. Didn’t care for the looks too much , wierd horizontal protruding taillights (vertical pillars are a crv classic, why change that?) as for the Subaru and the Toyota , I was really unimpressed. They were plain , bland and even felt kind of cheaply made. The brand new rav4 I drove even creaked like a 10 year old car does idk if I just got a bad one , but it sounded as if the interior was coming apart anytime I hit a bump on the road. No bueno. Finally after a week of test drives , I made my way to the Nissan dealer and stepped into a beautiful caspian blue Rogue SL and fell in love...This is a beautiful vehicle. The interior in very high end , soft touch durable surfaces that don’t look,sound or feel cheap at all. My niece owns a Lexus is250 (beautiful car) and my Rogues interior rivals or bests it. I have had people walk away stunned after riding in it with me . Comparing it to BMWs and a Benz in one case. Not only does it look great and is it beautifully aggressively designed, but it runs like a dream. Super comfortable and loaded with safety and technology . As for its acceleration , ok it could be a little stronger but the amazing gas mileage I am getting more than supercedes this minor issue. I have had no issues at all passing slugs in traffic or merging quickly onto a busy highway. I feel some gear heads think all vehicles have to perform like a Ferrari. For the person buying a family runaround vehicle for weekend road trips and grocery runs , the performance is perfect. As for the cvt , if you want a traditional transmission , then do your homework, there are plenty of options out there for you. I love the cvt. It performs better than most and this particular one works great for Nissan. Even somewhat mimics a traditional transmission for those that aren’t open to NEW technology, (crazy). Know what you are buying people!...All that said, I couldn’t be any happier. I LOVE my Rogue. Don’t be fooled by “professional” reviews. Drive it yourself be your own professional. I relate more to Consumer reviews as we are the ones driving and living with these vehicles on a daily basis. “PROs” step into a vehicle once for maybe 30 mins and seem to have ALL the( sometimes very Honda/Toyota biased ) answers. Trust me people there are better options out there. The Nissan Rogue...

3/2/22 The Rogue is still on the road! it has held up okay. The issue with the vibration is still apparent at low to moderate speeds. Really good in the snow. Overall not much has changed. 9/1/21 The Rogue continues to run it is still plagued by the Nissan Drone. A slight vibration at certain speeds. You can definitely feel it through the steering wheel. Despite every attempt on my part, and assurances that it would become less prevalent over time. This is not the case. The issue persists. Average mileage has started to slip some in eco mode. Now it is averaging about 24-26 MPG. Having driven cars with Apple car play. The lack of this feature is noticeable. Overall it is a reliable car in all weather conditions. Because of the drone issue I would not buy a Nissan. But that is just me. 2/28/21 The Rogue continues to run. Very reliable and very good in the snow. The vibration continues between 32-42 MPH. Just put on new tires no change. Mileage has not decreased despite age and more miles on the odometer. Service has been good at the dealership. Seeing newer cars with apple car play highlights this models connectivity issues. It was a good value at the time for money and continues to be reliable. Once again here I am reviewing my Rogue. It has held up through snow and hot summers. The lack of apple car play is still one of the issues with the car. This is my fault. I thought it would not be a big deal but it is a feature I like. The vibration is still there in the steering wheel at low speeds. Maintenance has been standard. No real out of the ordinary costs. It is comfortable for both myself and passengers. Mileage has dipped a little in combined driving. The cargo space is often an inconvenience due to the configuration. The space looks bigger than what it will actually hold. The remote start only works from a short distance. It is also basically line of sight as well. Hope this helps you in your decision. Update 8/29/19 Edmunds asked for an update to the Rogue. It is still running well. It still has the vibration issue. The tech in the model and year I have s not great. Connectivity is okay, but there is no apple car play. Gas mileage is still 23-24 in eco mode everyday driving. Straight highway you hit 26-28. Ride quality is still the same. It is an SUV and you do feel it as a little stiff. But not uncomfortable even on long drives. Best quality of the Rogue is that it is great in the snow. It really can get through when more expensive can't. If your buying just make sure you test drive at low speed. Update on the Rogue. 8/28/18 The car overall is holding up well. Fuel Economy is marginal even in econ mode. The rear cargo area has protrusions for the shelf system. When you use the shelf it is great. When you are loading a large object it prevents it from fitting into the space. If the key is in your pocket with a cell phone the auto door lock will not work and the car can't see the key and it will not start. The blue tooth is spotty and is very slow to react to the controls on the steering wheel. On the highway it is a great car. Very comfortable and fairly quiet. The droning of the engine pulses is still very prominent at low speeds. The steering wheel vibrates and is very annoying. When you test drive this car please make sure you find a long test drive route where you can maintain 1,500 RPM. The CVT transmission causes a harmonic vibration in regular mode. It is caused by moving into the highest gear possible, as quickly as possible to obtain the best fuel economy. You are no doubt asking how does this guy know this. Well I bought a new Rogue in July and have a vibration in my steering wheel at 1,500 RPM. I took it back and the the dealer said nothing could be done. I called Nissan and they said they are aware and nothing could be done. The dealer got me in touch with the regional technical service representative. He rode in the vehicle and said this is what you have. Once again nothing can be done. If a fix becomes available we will let you know. This is a feature on all Rogues and you should have felt it when you test drove the car.

Initially I was looking for an affordable SUV, a Mitsubishi Outlander 2016 it seem like a good deal and had great safety features. Looked around and happened to visit the Nissan dealer just to see what was available. Looked at a 2016 Rogue, seemed nicer than the Mitsubishi but the 2017 Rogue is much nicer plus is a 2017 after. The interior of the 2017 has a more sportier feel to it even the steering wheel is different plus the color of the vehicle is unique. Finally decided that that the 2017 rogue was the one for me. With the features the vehicles has such as eco mode sport mode is teaches the driver how to drive plus the other safety features it has and luxury features like Bluetooth,Xm Radio TPMS for the tires among other. I feel it is a great investment in my part, there is no need to worry about breaking down on the side of the road any time. Just turn the key and drive.

Traded in a 2012 Murano Platinum for a Rouge SL awd with all three option packages. We just wanted a new car with better gas mileage. The Murano was the best car we have ever owned. No complaints at all really, but our new rogue surprises me all the time with it's performance and quality. Took me a long time to realize that I don't need a V 6. I keep hearing that the Rouge is under powered and doesn't handle well compared to some of it's competition. Could have fooled me! I don't feel that way at all. Love it on the road and love it in town. We have the high end of the rogue line and the safety features are really a welcome addition to our daily driving. All the safety features of a more prestigious and much more expensive SUV, and we love the Monarch Orange color we choose, and the leather interior. After 9 mo. it's still a joy to drive. Couldn't be happier! It is now May 2018 and I was asked to update my review, and I wouldn't change one comment in my review. It is fully loaded, so it has all the bells and whistles, and most people I don't think pay for that, so it's a platinum Rogue. Love it as much as the day we bought it!

I love the look of the white with black details. It makes it unique which is hard to find when suvs are all so similar looking. I like the ride, but still trying to get used to the steering. Mine is an SV model with the sun and sound package. The glass roof is great since I'm used to the roof height of a truck. The Bose sound system is Bose! Excellent of course. Backing up in this truck isn't my favorite thing to do. It has the rear camera and adjustable mirrors, but I am not comfortable with the view when I turn around to see behind me - another thing to get used to using. The interior design is good, and it's comfortable for everyone in the car. It even has AC in the back seat - my dog loves that option. I added leather seats for easier fur cleanup and the front seats are heated. I had it Simonized inside and out, which is well worth the price.

UPDATE: 5/21 Traded again for a Honda when the 2019 Rogue developed electrical issues. UPDATE: 9/19 I traded this car for a 2019 Rogue SL AWD. I downsized from a Jeep Grand Cherokee to my 2017.5 Rogue SL. I hadn't owned a Nissan since 1988 and boy was I impressed with this Rogue! I happened to be test-driving several pre-owned vehicles (different makes and models) and tried a new Rogue. I was hooked. The car is zippy despite my concerns about a 4 cyl engine -- I accelerate quickly and smoothly for freeway driving and have never felt short of power. Yes, there's a little whine as it winds up for 1st gear but it's not tinny for harsh. I love the big sunroof, gas mileage, BOSE sound system, and the safety features. The interior is comfortable and pretty quiet, although could use more soundproofing on the driver's door -- too much road noise there for my liking and I sometimes doublecheck to make sure my door is closed all the way. I wish the front seats were a bit wider (or perhaps I wish I was narrower) because every now and then I accidentally bump the rocker switch for the seat warmer. I wish the console storage was forward a few more inches for easier reach. I like the convertible cargo area -- handy on grocery day to have that divider in place and have a double-decker of secured items! The interior scratches easily in the cargo compartment (the plastic) and I've discovered there is no touchup paint. The controls are all easily within reach and the car is easy to maneuver. Overall I'm very pleased with this car. Wish I could have afforded the AWD model, but that will have to be part of my next purchase. This car is just the right size for my needs, has all the bells and whistles I want, and is fun to drive! It's comfortable, solid, and has been problem-free in the first year of ownership. I don't like the factory tires and can't wait to change those out, and the dealer-added window tint is a tad too dark for nighttime visibility but overall I love my Rogue and smile when I buckle up! On the highway I get about 33-34 mpg, and combined city/highway I get about 28 mpg. I'm satisfied with the fuel economy. UPDATE 3/19: All is still well with my Rogue SL! No issues have arisen since my last review and I remain pleased with my purchase. My best combined gas mileage has peaked at a stellar 38.3 but that happened only once. Combined city/highway mileage is around 28-32 and highway mileage around 33-34. No rattles or other problems. There have been two recalls but my vehicle wasn't affected.

I am a new owner of 2017.5 SL with platinum package. I did extensive analysis comparing this with CX-5, CR-V & NX (My cars in the radar). I was very much drawn to the rougue due to its appearance and utility. I was a bit concerned about the inputs provided by some regarding the acceleration and CVT. After test driving all my comparisons decided to go with this as it was the most comfortable and appealing to me. It takes a bit getting used to the CVT and feels like there is a lack of response (especially I am coming off driving a BMW 328i for couple of years) but I feel that being mild the accelerator gets a more responsive torque and good enough for day to day driving. I am very comfortable now and love the way it handles the road imperfections. The smoothness of the ride is very good and I am very happy about the purchase and no second thoughts. I placing this feedback in case someone is looking for a user feedback and want to help people like me who had a lot to gain from others feedback. I have had it only for few weeks but enjoy driving it and thats the most important for anyone who buys. It sure is not the quickest off the block but good enough for average city driving.

UPDATE, I no longer have this vehicle I lost it on bankruptcy. But I do have a 2020 ford escape that i got after my bankruptcy and i love it.if your in the market for a vehicle then i would highly recommend the new Ford escape it's very nice fun to drive and get excellent fuel economy.,and it comes standard with a lot of safety tech,I traded my 2015 altima s for the 2017 rogue s with the 3rd row seats family package it comes with the run flat tires, and nissan dropped the 3rd seat for 2018 its no longer available glad i got it when i did this is definitaly my last new vehicle.the rogue is only one of 2 in class vehicles that offer a 3rd row seat. I got magnetic black metallic with black interior. I did not want to buy any more new cars but could use the room for my family so I decided to buy one last new vehicle that has more room and cargo versatility . The rogue s comes with all the features you need power accessories, keyless entry, alarm, camera,bluetooth streaming,satellite rado,CD player,cruise control, and it also has active ride control, active trace control,active engine brake,tire pressure monitoring with tire pressures display. And easy fill tire alert thinks when you have right amount of air in tire,The interior is very nice soft touch materials, And it also has a eco and sport driving mode, eco is for better fuel economy. Its very roomy and very good gas mileage it gets about same fuel economy as altima. One of my average fuel economy's is 26.3 but the current is always different I have gotten up to 37.6 but haven't been on interstate out of state yet i expect to get in 30s. . Got a 3.9 interest rate so the loan I will get paid pretty quick ,gonna pay ahead extra and get it paid off earlier. Update, still Loving my rogue there isn't anything that I don't like about it, it gets good gas mileage,there is fuel economy 1 and 2 the first one says average of 27 and the other changes every time you drive and turn it off and it has gotten up to 41 miles a gallon on economy 2. and it's the base model it has all the features i need but mine don't have all the extra technology features like emergency braking and other stuff, I don't want that extra technology in mine it just stuff that be expensive to fix later, the base model has the regular key and my rogue is rare it has the 3rd row seats which they are not making anymore. UPDATE!!! No longer have this suv I lost it on my Bankruptcy, but I do have a 2020 ford escape se and love it, got lifetime warranty on the engine and transmission and some other parts free

First off, the interior of the Rogue looks more like a luxury SUV than a moderately priced one. Nissan did an exceptional job here. The ride comfort is extraordinary and at highway speeds there is basically no wind noise. The only negatives for me - which are extremely minor - are: the switches to turn on the Sport and Eco modes, and the rest of these, are located in a place - lower left hand side of dashboard - which makes it difficult to see when driving. The only other thing is the map graphics for the nav system are a little dated. Other than that, I checked out a good number of SUVs in this general price segment (Honda, Toyota, Mazda and Subaru) and for y money, the Rogue blew the rest of them away. The adjustable configurations for the shelves in the hatchback area are excellent. Sometimes we carry things - like grocery bags - that are long and vertical and would have a difficult time staying vertical when driving. We just configure the back and put the shelves vertical into their holders and voila we have an area that will hold the bags tight and keep them up. We can also put the shelves horizontal and double the storage spaces back there. Fuel economy around time is not great - about 23 MPG - but highway in ECO mode we were getting 32-33 MPG easily. Since we bought the Rogue in Sept 2017 we see ALOT of them on the road, so if you don't like that then buy something else but seeing so many just confirmed for me that this is the best small SUV out there right now.... ********** UPDATE ********* It is now June 2018 and I have owned the Rogue for 9 months and it has a little more than 6k miles on it. I probably like it more today than when I wrote the original review ! Very well built automobile, the safety features are awesome. Went through the Connecticut winter without a care. The only improvement I would make is to the NAV system. The maps feel a little outdated however the system works well. Overall I cannot recommend the Nissan Rogue enough ! ********** UPDATE ********** It is now Dec 2018 and I have owned the Rogue for about 15 months. A little over 12k miles on the odometer. Still very pleased with the vehicle. No issues at all as far as defects. I am still not thrilled with the NAV system - it gets you there but could be easier to use. It is still probably the most comfortable vehicle I have owned. Perfect for long trips in terms of comfort, storage, AWD (if traveling in winter), and gas mileage. ********** UPDATE ********** It is now Dec 2019 and I have owned the Rogue for 27 months. It has about 23k on the odometer. still very pleased with the car. No complaints. My wife and I really love it, especially for long trips and on snow-covered roads here in CT. It is just a very comfortable vehicle. I drive it all the time with no radio on, in complete silence just to listen for anything out of the normal. I never hear anything, no rattles, no loud engine noise, nothing. It is a very tight automobile and I recommend it highly.

I've only had the vehicle about two weeks, but have driven it about 1000 miles. I commute very far to work, and being comfortable is very important to me.The Rouge provides it all, at a great price; Decent performance, haven't had a problem passing at highway speeds although everyone else seems to. The interior is what I beleive a cut above the rest as well. Update: I have about 30,000 miles on the SUV and it's preforming well. It's about time for tires been burning them up as an aggressive driver and such. Noticed after driving a smaller vehicle how much the brakes have worn with heavy driving and mixed city driving. The interior still looks brand new, and is very comfortable on long trips. I will buy another once it's time. Update: I got rid of the car with about 40,000 miles on it and upgraded to a pathfinder which ended up being a lemon. I should’ve never gotten rid of the rogue. She started every single time, was very reliable, very comfortable and I averaged about 33 miles a gallon everywhere I went. You just can’t beat it.

Our 2017 Nissan Rogue SL AWD w/Platinum Reserve Package is, by far, the best car we've ever owned - and definitely deserves a much higher, Edmunds rating than just 3 stars. The Rogue exudes quality and truly feels like a luxury car in disguise - and like it should cost a LOT more than it does. We constantly get compliments from people around us who either just see it (it's black with beautiful, silver/black, 19" allow rims, and the tan/camel colored, leather interior) or ride in it. When people do ride in it, they come away supremely impressed and express interest in getting one - every single person who rides in it tells us they want the car...every-single-person...no exaggeration. And, as owners, we continue to be supremely impressed with it. There's a reason sales of the Rogue are exploding. It's a great SUV! I really don't understand all the adoration the CR-V gets. For us, the Rogue is hands-down better. It's more comfortable, more soothing to drive, better-looking, just as roomy and spacious, and has a more flexible cargo system - not to mention having MUCH more comfortable seats and a smoother ride. Plus, Nissan always works with you to get a good deal, unlike Honda. I admit that the Rogue could be a bit faster, but it's definitely not objectionable, in the least - and it gets up to speed on the highway just fine (in fact, many people ask if it has V6 since it gets up to speed so nicely). The Rogue's naturally-aspirated, 2.5-liter engine is a reliable workhorse that's been around for years, and it gets-the-job-done - and all with a pleasant, masculine growl when you lay into it (which sounds better than the CR-V's clatter-y, small displacement, direct-injected and tacked-on turbo sound). Also, the CVT now features "steps" to make it feel more like a regular automatic with much less "drone" - if that's important to you. Personally, I prefer CVT's over regular automatics - Why would you need to feel gear shifts in an automatic transmission, anyway? If you want to feel gear shifts, get a manual. (And, it seems as though the auto industry agrees as it's following Nissan's footsteps, with Subaru, Honda, Toyota and others all following suit and making their own CVTs, which Nissan started doing over a decade ago!) It's interesting how Edmunds calls the Toyota RAV4's acceleration "average for the class," yet calls the Rogue's "slow for the class" even though, literally, only 0.1 milliseconds differentiate the two. 0.1 milliseconds? As a human, can you possibly even feel that? Biased much, Edmunds? The Rogue, also, handles very confidently. Does it "feel" as "sporty" as the CX-5 or Escape? Maybe not. The only dynamic trait I take issue with is that the steering is too light (but, if you hit the "Sport" button, it tightens it up). However, does a car need to "feel sporty" in order to be considered good? Is it no longer a good-enough car simply cuz it doesn't "feel sporty?" Do family cars and SUVs/Crossovers need to feel "sporty," anyway? And how about smoothness and comfort? Does that ever take precedence over feeling "sporty?" Sometimes, automotive journalists are too jaded. They want everything to handle like a sports car. The fact of the matter is that the Rogue does handle well and securely, it instills confidence and it's perfectly safe, especially for an SUV/Crossover. Interestingly, and you can check it out yourselves, the handling/performance numbers between ALL the competitors are SO similar to each other that it really makes you wonder. (Things that make you go: "Hmmm.") In addition, the Rogue is, actually, a very good off-roader that performs awesomely in the snow! It's AWD system is so good that it only trails behind stalwart AWD systems from Jeep and Subaru. There is nary a mention of AWD performance in all these crossover reviews, here, which all feature AWD. How is AWD performance not an important feature to report on? Hello, Edmunds! The Rogue's AWD system is superior to the Honda CRV's outright useless system, the RAV4's, the CX-5's and the Escape's. The Rogue TRULY is a great SUV, and you'd do yourselves a disservice by automatically and/or blindly going for a Honda, Toyota or Ford, etc. without checking one out, driving it and forming your OWN opinion - as opposed to letting yourselves be influenced by paid-off, biased, CVT-hating automotive journalists (who have hidden agendas). Check the out the Rogue...you'll thank me and the other hundreds of thousands of satisfied owners for it. ;)

First off, not purchased because it was a special edition...it just had a lot of features I wanted, and not a lot I didn't want or need. The HID lighting is excellent, the heated seats are nice and comfortable, and cloth, which we prefer. The sound system upgrade with 9 Bose speakers, 2 being subs, and the ginormous panoramic moon-roof, really opens up the interior, and adds to the ambiance. Speaking of which, the foot-wells in front light up and can change color to suit your taste/preference, as do the doorsills ( only the 1 color there ). It is not a hot rod, nor was it meant to be, and unless hammering on it, the cvt is not that intrusive, and makes up for it in mpg. I've had no issues passing or merging, and off the line, to 30 mph, it's time is nearly identical to the 6 cyl. Murano, and about a second slower to 60. Ride itself is decent all around, as is the handling. Remote start a plus, in heat or cold conditions. Happy so far, but not a lot of miles on yet. This particular model is like an SV 1/2, or between the standard SV and SL, with a couple options even the base SL does not have. Price was way better than the new CRV, and even the Rav and Forester, comparably equipped, of course. It is a car you should consider, test drive, and compare side by side ( charts ) if you are in the market. Yes, we got the helmet and badges/emblems also.

Update - now with 50k. Finally new brake pads and tires. Set of Cooper Ultra Tourings a big improvement over the Dunlops although the Dunlops wore well. Battery replaced under warranty but otherwise no problems or issues with anything. This my second, both SLs. The 2015 redesign is a vast improvement and the new high tech gadgets mostly useful. Do wish that Pandora would work Bluetooth. Comfortable and very quiet - new model gets almost 4 mpg more than 08 . Computer overstates FE by 5-10% although display currently says 30.1 for the last 6000 miles. A lot of 40-60 mph country roads, almost no city or highway. Can get a bit pricey (mid 30s) loaded but overall a nice car. 2 long trips this summer, the Rogue is a great road car and comfortable for extended periods.

Nissan's best selling SUV is my nightmare

2017 Nissan Rogue SV 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

I have owned my 2017 Nissan Rogue SV for just over a year now and have put over 17,000 on the car. For the first 15,000 miles the car was great and never had any issues. Once the car hit 16,000 is when the problems started happening. Lets talk about the good stuff: the car's hide and dived trunk feature is absolutely amazing. Being a mom to a toddler, I can put the stroller on the bottom shelf and still have room for items on the bottom and top self. The rear seats are raised so they sit higher than the front; this is a nice feature if you ever have to sit in the back. But I find it can be a little difficult loading my young child into their car seat because I have to step up higher to access it. (I am sure this is not an issue if you're tall) Due to this being the SV model my car only has the power adjustable driver seat. I have lower back problems so being able to raise this seat and have lumbar support is very nice. The passenger seat is comfortable but during our long road tips in the Rogue, I have found that the driver seat is a better place to be. The car gets excellent gas mileage for being a small SUV. I average about 415 miles per tank and when we go on long road trips, I have seen it up to 480 miles on one tank of gas. (This is without Eco mod on and I can have a lead foot. ) The standard Cross traffic alert and blind spot monitoring are a huge bonus (Especially because this car has terribly large blind spots). Now it is time for the bad: The back up camera on the 2017 (with out the nav) is a joke. The screen is small and the quality of the camera is fair at best. It does get the job done, but I don't rely on it when I am backing up. The road noise on the car is terrible, if I am calling anyone over Bluetooth I have to turn the volume all the up to be able to hear them and most of the time the other person can hear the road. The tan cloth seats are horrible quality; they got stained in 1 week after owning the car and made the car look 10 years old. Nissan's response to that was "put seat covers over them." The car is grossly under powered. Merging onto the highway is a little scary and if you have to pass someone, you better make sure you have time because the CVT doesn't want to get the engine moving. The problems: At 16,000 miles I noticed my Rogue jerking a lot more when I would try to accelerate from stop and go traffic. A slight tap on the pedal would cause the RPMs to jump up to 6 then drop to 0. I took it to the dealership and was told that they couldn't replicate the issue. So in order for me to prove that this was happening, I had to film the issue. Once I got it on film I took the car back at 16,700. (yes it took that long for the issue to happen again). The dealership kept the car for a few hours then called me to say "it's done". According to the Carfax report and the dealers paperwork they "serviced the transmission." Well at 17,000 the car started to do the same thing and at different times. I took it back and was told the same thing "we need it on film". The car currently has 17,800 miles on it and I drive around with a GoPro attached to the cluster gage so I can get the issue on film AGAIN! I took the car to a trusted mechanic to get a second opinion. I was told that the transmission is slipping and probably has a year at best of life left in it. Taking this over to Nissan, they are refusing to look at the car until I can get the issue on film again. Due to it being my only car, I now have to drive around with this potentially dangerous machine until it decides to act up again and have Nissan fix it. This is my 6th Nissan and will be my last.

For some reason this vehicle always gets underrated by the supposed experts. Despite that, sales figures indicate many consumers would disagree as the Rouge has become a very popular seller. This 2017 SL is my second Rouge having stepped up from the 2015 SV. This has lots more tech and safety features. Simple little things like the divide-n-hide rear storage make this a pleasure loading groceries as it helps keep them in place. The ride is superb for a short wheelbase vehicle and the creature comforts numerous. The all around camera system is a plus but the image could be better. The build seems pretty good and the materials better than expected for the price category it's in. Gas consumption is quite good averaging 27/28 MPG for mostly country driving. The engine is somewhat underpowered, the CVT works hard at keeping it in the right RPM range for max power when needed. That becomes one of the knocks against the vehicle. Personally I didn't buy the vehicle to haul a trailer or for its street rod capability. It's just a great family hauler that does just about everything well. UPDATED 0CT 2018 - Happily my opinion of this vehicle hasn't changed. Admittedly more power would increase the fun factor, that would make a good vehicle even better! Update Apr 2019 - Happily my opinion hasn't changed, the Rouge is just a great all round vehicle. Can't say enough about the convenience of the divide-n-hide rear storage, groceries stay in place, no spilt milk as the say. There is room for improvement, dislike the location of buttons on the lower dash. The seat heater switch makes you take your eyes off the road to use it. Love the all around camera but the image isn't that good. OK so it's not a 10, it still beats most of its competitors. UPDATE: Oct 2019 - Still pleased with the vehicle, actually prefer driving it better than our second vehicle a high powered sport sedan. The Rouge fits our needs to a tee - quiet, comfortable, great storage, all around usefulness. My 2nd favorite vehicle of all time, first choice a 1975 Chevy station wagon with 3 way tail gate.

I really like my Rogue a lot. Wasn't expecting it to be my favorite test drive, but it was. Rides great, quiet on the road, feels very solid, connected with the road, and upscale. Gas mileage rating is spot on. After 4000 miles I'm averaging exactly the rated 27 combined mpg and I drive combined city and highway. Actually about 1 mpg better than my previous midsize car was so I'm not complaining for an AWD SUV. The CVT also turned out to be better than expected. Easily and seamlessly compensates for hills on the interstate without hunting for gears - just finds it sweet spot on rpm's. Transmission can be a little slow to respond at times but has no trouble getting up to,speed if you give it a little extra gas when called for. Reviewer says it's slow, but a 0-60 time of 8.6 is hardly lethargic for the class of vehicle and given that it's just a 4 cylinder engine and it's class leading gas mileage, I have no issues with the performance. Sun and Sound package on the SV model is great. Instrumentation and technology also very nice. Plenty of room for passengers and versitile cargo arrangement capabilities. Overall, an excellent vehicle. I have no regrets purchasing it and would do so again today.

This is where we are coming from I own a 2003 Nissan Frontier (135k) a small pickup. Because of its reliably and only having to do regular maintenance, this went a long way in our decision making of buying a USED CERTIFIED 2017 Rouge SV (31K) for my wife. Also our 2001 Toyota Camry (193k) had paint problems and falling into the car was not fun any more. New or Used car buying today from a Dealer is not what you would expect as a pleasurable experience its eats up almost a full day of looking then test driving then negotiating then extended warranties and finally financing to say the least. Stressed yet you will be. Suggest, you do a lot of your home work on line and make copies because the old bate and switch is still alive and kicking. YES we read the NEGATIVE REVIEWS and ALSO WATCHED YOU TUBE about the Rogues POOR ACCELERATION, CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, AC not doing its job and a few others. WELL we are here to tell you coming from a 4 cyl Camry that you have to turn the AC OFF to climb a hill. This Rogue 2017 is the BEST diving experience we have had in a very long time. ACCELERATION is NO problem, off the line and passing is GREAT and the CVT has a build in side shiftier to drop down a gear plus you can feel it shift automatically like the old style transmissions that you maybe been used to. Took trip to Vegas, 7 hours home in 109 degrees and the AC once it cooled the SUV was just fine and the SEATS of MEMORY FOAM are the best we have sat in for comfort. At 34 mph Highway 30 mph around town what more do you want out of a 3400 lb CROSSOVER SUV. Some reviews call the Rouge a old persons SUV for long trips, because of its comfortable driving, is that a BAD reputation to have or what, we are old people. There is so much HI TECH and a lot more to come I don't know where to begin. The owners manual is over a inch thick. We love the BLIND SPOT NOTIFICATION LIGHTS and BEEP also REAR CAMERA and a STEERING WHEEL FULL OF BUTTONS that we have not completely figured out yet. HIGH SAFETY RATING CURTAIN AIR BAGS, ANTI SWAY CONTROL AND if the SUV starts to tip THE BREAKS on ONE SIDE ARE COMPUTER APPLIED TO CORRECT THE TIPPING. Remember the old days of HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES TIPPING OVER, I do. OK all this TECH DOES HAVE ME CONCERNED ABOUT OVERALL TOTAL COST and MAINTENANCE but all your vehicles today are this way and its going to get a whole lot worse in the future. My back yard mechanic days are done I guess. ADJUSTABLE REAR CARGO SHELVES PLUS FOLD DOWN ADJUSTABLE REAR SEATS, REAR PASSENGER HEATING and COOLING. This Rogue is classed as a COMPACT SUV its larger than our old MID SIZE Camry or seems so and its the only NEGATIVE my wife gives it, she says its TO BIG. Come on its again CLASSED AS a COMPACT SUV, you check it out. Let me leave you with THIS check out the NHTSA.gov web site on SAFETY AND RECALLS also CARCOMPLAINTS.com. TEST DRIVE the Rouge, Honda, Toyota, Subaru SUVs and you decide. Best of luck to you and remember it just gets more expensive from this point. BTOG

Never Buy a Nissan Rogue Even If Given For Free

I bought a brand new 2017 Rogue with Technology package(MSRP 36000) and from the time I bought I made multiple trips to dealership for replacing the brake pads, rotors, struts, suspensions. After multiple trips these issues are finally solved. Now I am facing another issue. My car shudders when at low speeds and if I remove my foot of gas pedal just before the 2nd transmission shift. Nissan sent a Technician from company to check it and what they say is that "It is as it is designed". I don't understand if Nissan built a $36000 car for which you can feel all the shuddering, transmission shifting, noise from transmission while driving with zero drive comfort. They just got my money and gave me junk of metal. I never had the feeling of driving a brand new car. Always had to go to dealership for one or other issues. And even after many, the company is hesitant to accept the issues and wouldn't want to replace or buy back my car. Another hazardous issue is the AEB suddenly gets engaged without any reason while on a express way when driving at 70MPH. And for every thing the company has only 1 response "It is working as designed". I don't understand what they designed, what they produced and what they are selling.

Bought my Nissan Rogue with 20,000 miles on it. It worked perfectly fine up until this year when I started having issues with the transmission. For a 3 year old car I was not expecting transmission issues... It's out of warranty and Nissan's response to my claim was they are unable to cover any expenses as it's out of warranty. I really regret buying this vehicle... it's a joy to drive and very spacious but it's going to cost me $3500 to replace the transmission... CVT transmission issues are common the Rogues from what I've read online recently... I highly advise NOT PURCHASING from NISSAN.

I bought my 2017 used Nissan Rouge back in March of 18' and I had a 2006 Nissan Altima. I am not going to lie I am a bit of brand loyalist after owning my rock solid Altima which my husband now drives in lei of his 2008 Pontiac G5. Don't get me started about how terrible that vehicle was. I always find great bang for you buck when you buy Nissan's. Seeing as I had not bought a vehicle in ten years or so I was blown away by some of the safety features. Yes the back up camera is not the greatest quality but when your coming from not having anything it does get the job done! I also like the cross-traffic monitoring which detects people as well! The 2017 model does not come with the active break-assist you have to spring for an 18' or up. I have the SV which came with a lot of features for the money! I love the hands free blue-tooth but it does not come with a nav system but you can still use your phone connected via Bluetooth for audio directions. I at times wish I had gotten an SL for the upgraded sound system the factory speakers are better in my Altima!! The other complaint I have is yes it can be sluggish but when you put your foot down the CVT transmission will respond with torque. Also my other issue is the poor visibility at times because of the vehicles large A-pillars on either side of the windshield. I almost did not see a gal in a cross walk when making a left. It really spooked me! The road and outside noise could be improved in this vehicle. Overall I think if you are in the market for a smaller easy to drive SUV at a great price this is it! I forgot to mention how roomy the back seat is! My father is 6'1' and he said he was more than comfortable when seated in the back. I also love the cargo space!

Life is strange. I got my 2017 rogue SV in 2019 in a pinch. With 46,000 miles, the former rental only came with front wheel drive. Our relationship started off poorly as it needed new wheel bearings at 77,000 miles. But once the repairs were done, it became a comfortable, dependable and economical ride averaging as much as 35 miles per gallon highway. I drive a lot, and when I hit 130,000 miles I was contacted by my local dealer who is desperate for used car inventory. I got a great deal on the trade and amazingly, moved up one model year to a 2018 model! Except this one has all Wheel drive, Apple CarPlay and a few other bells and whistles that the previous one did not. So goodbye to the 2017 and hello to the 2018. Never thought I’d buy another rogue but here we are! I like the car, it’s comfortable, great storage capacity and good gas mileage. The all wheel drive is the difference maker in wet weather and I’m looking forward to see how it performs this coming winter. Overall, the car won me over. To summarize: I like the ride, the MPG and storage. I was not happy with the early problems when I bought it used, specifically that it needed new wheel bearings at 77,000 miles.

Love the vehicle. Comfortable, decent gas mileage. Comes with normal, eco, and sport modes. Worst issue was transmission went out at 30,000 miles while on vacation. It was replaced on warranty but Nissan would not pay for hotel or rental car for extended stay. Class action lawsuit got me at 30.00 dollar amazon card and extended warranty to 84,000. Servicing dealership said to service new transmission sooner than required.

After years of driving Ford's I bought my first Nissan back in August when I decied I wanted to go back to an SUV I absolutely loved it!!! I compared the Rogue SL to the Escape Titanium loved them both but the Nissan was about $8,000 less and has all the features that the Escape had. It's more fun to drive and has a sportier styling. There's not much difference in the gas millage between the too. I just might a Nissan man from now on

Center display showing how fast you are going and odometer reading failed after three days purchase, (tuned white) no data could be read, display cluster on backorder for over a week no date on when we will getting a new part. First tank of gas not used, the dealer has had the SUV longer for repair then we had it to drive it. UPDATE WEEK 2 has passed still no date on when the replacement display cluster will be here. They say (Nissan) is making a new display cluster when they get it done, will take another 5 days for the Model company to have it loaded with our ROGUES, VIN # and mileage only 85 miles. Then it will need to be installed by the dealer. UPDATE WEEK 3 has passed still no date on when the replacement display cluster will be here. They say they sent the display to the Model company but they do not know where it is no tracking number, right. Next week the state LEMON car LAW ( 30 days ) will start so this will be ending some how next week. Called consumers affairs at Nissan the person assigned to the problem is to busy to call us back they must have a lot of people with Nissan car problems to fix. UPDATE WEEK 6 has passed still no date on when the replacement display cluster will be here. The part department said the a new display would be them to install in our SUV ROGUES 3/13/2017 BUT NEVER CAME and surprise no PART and NO FEDEX tracking number for part at wits end.

Its got 4,694 miles on it. We were driving back on a 2.5 hour trip, slightly wet conditions. The slick road/ traction control icon came on. Transmission suddnly shifted out of gear. Shortly later it shifted down going level, no acceleration, three gears. I turned on the "traction control Off" button on the dash. Squiggly line warning stayed on even though traction control off icon lit up. Took transmission out of Economy mode into sport mode. Revs stayed high, would not shift into high gear. Accelerator would not respond until depressed halfway. Made it home. Next day the squiggly line warning was gone. It shifted normally, accelerated normally. However I noticed the Blind spot warning wasn't working. Went into the menu and found that it had turned itself off. Turned it on and it worked normally. Read the error codes and found P17F0 but no "juddering" in the transmission. Has my car got Gremlins? Maybe cars are just too smart for their own good nowadays. Later.. the P17FO code is not an error, wound up replacing the transmission which is supposed to be covered by warranty but that's just smoke. You still have to pay. These transmissions fail way too often from what I've read, and Nissan won't do a recall. Buyer beware.

I have had this car less than 3 months and live in the Northeast. I expect to be sold a car that can handle the cold, rain and snow. I've already had several issues including the remote control start not working when it gets below 15, even while standing right in front of it. Today I went out to start and move my car and the heater, defrosters and fans aren't working. There are a lot of angles that hold snow and ice. The ice interfers with the sensors and will cause it to think you are crashing when you are not and automatically engages the breaks for no reason. So far not impressed wishing I had never traded my 2008 rogue in

Bad Product and Nissan did Nothing to resolve

I bought a new Nissan-Rogue family package vehicle 3 months back from Cherry Hill Nissan and basic reason for this buy was - 1. Good gas mileage (Nissan claims it to be 33 on highways and 26 on city roads) 2. Additional seat for occasional usage of my family needs Ever since I bought this car I am getting very low gas mileage and tried to work with local dealer as well as Nissan for resolution but no satisfactory results- 1. I am getting ~ 19 MPG in city driving and getting 24-26 MPG on highway driving which is about 8 MPG lower than what is claimed at the time vehicle is sold or advertised. 2. Multiple visits to dealer and gave them gas mileage readings as per their requirements. Dealer did software upgrade but I don't see they did anything reasonable which convince that it should make it better. After multiple visits and fulfilling whatever they asked for (even waiting for more then 4-5 Hrs. in one occasion) no outcome and dealer asked me to call Nissan customer care. 3. I called Nissan customer care and got Case opened but here also it was completely unsatisfactory 4. Nissan representative told me that based on dealer checks, everything is working as expected and after lot of persuasion she agreed that her supervisor will call 5. Supervisor called me and she told me the same story that as per dealer it is within company specifications. when asked what are company specifications and this is lower than what you advertise, no answer and keep on repeating that this is within company specifications. This was completely unacceptable and no help provided by Nissan and after I told that I have to go to Better Business Bureau, she had no effect. Seems Nissan is very proud of their legal team and a mere customer can't do anything against them. So if you are buying any Nissan vehicle and you are unlucky to get a bad vehicle, my experience is that both Dealer and Nissan will leave you to deal with it. I would recommend to not go with Nissan or Cherry Hill Nissan dealership.

I always want to buy a Rogue. And finally got a chance to drive one from Hertz's rental. Here is my honest review, Very disappointing . 2017 Rogue S AWD ( 24000 miles) is very road NOISY, tire noises and wind noises. The riding is roughed, it feels like riding a military Jeep. It produces clunky sounds when riding over small bumps and you can feel it hard. This Rouge lacks comfort, even the seats are hard . The acceleration is weaks but acceptable do to 4 cyl , you can't expect this to move like 4 cyl sedan like the Nissan Altima. Don't get me wrong, I like the Exterior and interior looks. Interior design (instruments and dashboard) I give it an A- , but the rear backup camera's screen should be 4×7 standard. I do love blind side assist and working properly. My 2007 Nissan Altima hybrid with 244600.00 miles is riding better than this Rogue, accelerates faster, smoother rides and a lot less noise when driving. I know I shouldn't compare SUV with a sedan. But my points is that this is 2017 and only 24000.00 miles compare to my Altima ( 2.5, 4 cyl) is 11 years older and with 244600.00 miles. My Altima hybrid never had a single tune up. Yes still original spark plugs and the rest of major mechanical parts . Check engine light came on twice when the hybrid bettery died at 175000 miles and oxygen sensor bad. I don't know how this Rogue will holds up when it hits high milage. Conclusion, I personally will not buy this Rogue because is SO NOISY and CLUNKY.

I purchased the 2017.5 Rogue due to great financing and in the past driving suvs. I traded a 2016 Accord Coupe that was fantastic for the Rogue. Greatly regret it. My Rogue is top of the line with the Platinum Reserve package. I’ve never gotten the gas mileage that they claim it should get. It sounds like a go cart during acceleration. By far the worst vehicle I’ve ever owned and I come from a family that loves cars. It has been back to the dealership on several occasions, they can’t seem to find a problem. The owner drove it for a week and claimed to get a little better fuel mileage but was also driving 69 miles per hour. When I get out of this Rogue. I will never purchase Nissan again. Back to Lexus or Honda I go!

*** Beware of "Electrical/Amperage Fluctuations" that "Nissan" has "No Fix For"!! HVAC fan motor will speed up 2 speeds when in motion making a left hand turn. It slows back down when driving straight. Will not do it when new, yet appears around 8K miles! "Nissan", voluntarily bought back our "2015" after trying a new steering column/fan motor, that "Did Not Fix It"! Based on the small %'s we were told at the dealership service department, we took a chance on another "New 2017"!! Very Big Mistake!! Same problem comes up, at 8K miles, and "Still No Fix"!! This time "Nissan" is refusing to buy it back, claiming it is a "Normal Operational Characteristic"/Excuse! It Is Not, and most likely is affecting other safety and utility electrical systems, that will fail, costing money, and possibly lives!! It's not the dealership people, as they know about the problem. They have been instructed by "Nissan Corporate" to use this excuse, and will even have "The Regional Factory Tech's Offer Up Bogus Theory" on your required "3rd Lemon Law Repair", and in "Sworn Testimony" in a "BBB Autoline Hearing"! *** For Us, it's on to "The States Attorney's Office, and Beyond", as not only for us, we feel an obligation to "Expose an Important Issue That Nissan Can't Fix"!! *** For everyone who has rated this vehicle highly, next time you are out for a drive, have a look for "This Issue"! They "Do Not Do This When New"! Usually it starts at 6-8K miles, and is an "Electrical Amperage/Faulty Breakdown", most likely caused by a "Bad Circuit Board", that is "Jumping Power" to unrelated, systems! This type of unpredictable problem could be working on "Safety Systems/ie: Airbag Sensors", as well! Take it to the dealer if you have this issue show up, and "Don't Let Them Snow You" on the problem! You can't even "Sell" a vehicle acting this way, as it "Shows Up Very Badly" in a test drive, and a prospective buyer, will not "Buy The Nissan BS Story Either"!! You Too, may soon be "Lemon Law" bound, for resolution! It could get to a "Class Action Suit", as there are a lot of them "Out There"!!

Sloppy handing, massive blind spot, weak power

Rented an AWD version for 5 days for a long weekend trip with myself & SO & our 2 dogs for a trip to a place about 200 miles away. Never in my wildest (worst) dreams would I buy this vehicle. Yes, it has a very comfortable ride over the highway for both driver and front passenger, but the wimpy weak little engine just couldn't get enough guts to pass much of anything on a highway hill. And on the many winding, S-curve, 2-lane country back roads we took were an exercise in terror thanks to the massive blind spot from the huge A pillar on the driver's side - couldn't see if there were cars coming toward me around any curves without craning my neck one way or another. And the handling....well, it was like driving a marshmallow. Sloppy, wishy-washy, imprecise, just plain unpleasant. I had no feel of the road whatsoever. Granted, at the time my primary car was an Acura TL Type-S, so perhaps not fair to compare, but it was 10 years older than this Rogue, so I feel there's no excuse. I ended up buying a 2018 Subaru Outback 3.6R Touring and it is almost as pleasing to drive as my beloved Acura. If you value handling, power/torque, as well as passenger comfort, RUN AWAY from the Rogue and give the Outback a try. (The other one to try would be a 2017 Infiniti QX50 - pretty amazing, but the Subaru 3.6R gives almost the same driving experience for a lot less money.)

Overall great car. Love everything about it and can't complain. Only minor set back is the CVT but used to it due to the fact that my other two nissans i had and most cars have CVT now. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a small crossover.

Midnight Rogue- navigation issues 2018

Saddly the first of many returns to dealership- navigation keeps crashing and freezing. Unit replaced new unit crashed after 13 days. Softwear techs came to evaluate. Was ok for 12 days. Now completely frozen- no nav no ability to use any feature nav/hands free apps - terrible. Nissan cooperate- really disappointing- no sense of urgency. Loaner cars NO NAVIGATION- after multiple nissans. You never really know the worth of a company till something goes wrong. Car in driveway - hopeless. Car is 4 months old!!!

Ok The absolute truth here. I rent cars by the month for the past year. I have driven many different cars. I loved the Nissan Altima but prefer an SUV so I assumed the Rouge would be the comfort of the Altima in an SUV. I now have the Rouge SV model and I have to say the difference is night and day and not in a good way. The Altima I had was the SL model with leather trip and those zero gravity seats. The Rouge is not leather and the seats are terrible. I don't mind cloth seats but these seats are weird and I cant get the driver seat adjusted properly. I do not get where all the great comfort reviews come from. This seat is small and not supportive at all. The worst part is I cant reach the top of the steering wheel. If I move the seat forward my right knee is in the dash. It is a very uncomfortable drive. I have to drive 10 hours in this thing. So my reason for the review is to just warn those considering this vehicle. Go sit in it. Test drive it. Comfort is relative to each individual. I had very high hopes for the Rouge and maybe the SL model would fix the issues I am having but I cant request that in a rental pool.

Vehicle crossed over from the on coming lane and hit my 2017 Nissan Rogue Front Wheel and Front of Vehicle. The front and side air bags went off. Vehicle is to be totaled, but I walked away stiff and sore but otherwise in good shape. Thank you Nissan for keeping me safe.

The seats and suspension are stiff. It's hard on someone with back problems. Also, I have replaced the windshield 2 times in 3 years of owning it. I never had to do that with any other car I owned. The paint quality is very bad. The smallest piece of debris will cause paint chips and scratches. At 79k miles the transmission failed. It gave me the p0776 code with no CEL. If you are having acceleration issues, this is the first sign of an impending transmission failure. Glad it didn't fail in traffic. I will never buy a Nissan again.
Most Uncomfortable Drivers Seat I ever sat in.

I like many took the vehicle (2017 Nissan Rouge SV cloth interior with drive side powered seat) out for a short test drive and I liked how it drove. At the time of this review (Note:I bought my vehicle on 5/18/2017 and today is 8/26/2017). The vehicle front drivers seat ( Cloth Material power) is now putting pressure on the back of my legs causing quite of bit of discomfort/pain ( that is putting it nicely). I have tried adjusting the seat several times, In every different position it will allow me to. I have had no success in releaving my discomfort. It was suggested that I place a pillow behind me to move me forward in the seat. Yes that took the presure point off that part of my legs and now placed unto another part of my legs. Now I have taken drastic measure, I have purchased a memory foam car pillow and placed under my butt/legs in order to lift my legs away from the front of the driver seat, that is where it seems the culprit of my problem is. At the end of the seat it has a slight up swing and the foam padding has no give to it. That is what's is causing the seat to dig into the back of my legs causing me pain. I have contacted Nissan and I also went back to where I purchased it. The service dept. looked me straight in my face and said didn't you take it for a test ride before you bought it. I replied yes then they said did you feel any problem on your test drive I replayed no. Their answer to me was that is how the seat is made and there isn't a thing they can do for me. I called Nissan's customer service in Tenn. The nicely spoken female on the other end of the line was from Nisan consumer reports in Tenn. She stated to me that she is not a technician and has to go on what the Mechanics at the dealership recommends. She also stated that they take all consumers reports and pass them onto the appropriate team so they can possibly improve on the vehicle. What baffles my imagination is that no one from the dealership did any research. Like take my vehicle out for a test ride to see maybe I had a defective seat or to even go look at another cars seat to compare the two. It was an immediate that is how the seat is made and there is nothing we can do. One person at the service dept. recommended I might want to find a custom reholpster maybe they can help me with my problem, but they had no one to recommend. I did my research on the reholpster and found one willing to try to help me relieve the pressure point in the seat. I was in so much discomfort that I was willing to try anything to release it. I did and it has relieve some of the problem I was having. Now at least I can drive the vehicle. So the out come of this is Basically I should have caught the problem at the test drive now I am S.O.L. I was on my own to find a solution to it. So now after my little rant I would have to say No the front Driver Seat of my 2017 Rogue is not comfortable. I have done a little more research regarding this vehicle. Their leather interior driver powered seat seems to have an added adjustment. It looks like it has a foward and backward tilt. If the cloth seat had that feature it would most likely corrected my problem. But if you buy or want leather you have to deal with all the other Bells and whistles ( which I did not want ) they shove down the consumer throat and it is not cheap. Those sticker prices of those vehicles ranged some where in the low to upper 30k. Good luck with your purchase hopefully you will have a better experience then I did singed A Unhappy Consumer. I finaly brought the car into a custom reholpster they took out the stiffness in the front of the seat replaced it with memory foam. That was a costly fix for me. After I did that I finaly got a call from the mgr of my local Nissan. he was sympathic to my problem and wanted to know what could be done for me, I explained what I did and how much it cost me. The Mgr payed half the cost of the possible fix to my problem. I drove the car for a few days and still after all that I still felt uncomfortable. I finaly tried several memory foam pillows to sit on. I have now choosen one of them and have been sitting on it ever since. ( My friends wife makes fun of my cushion she calls it my booster seat) It is now toerable to drive but still uncomfortable. If I could I would trade the car in to car max and purchase a different vehicle from a different manufacture but it is not in my budgetting at the moment. Hate to say it but this was my First purchase of a Nissan Vehicle and probably is my last time buying a Nissan too.. Today’s date is Sept. 6 2018 Nothing has changed since my last posting on here. Best of luck to all that decide or has purchased one. As of 09-06-2019 I still own the Rogue. Nothing really has change with seat I just learned how to adjust my foot to make the discomfort tolerable. Only thing new is I use to get 32 mpg now I am lucky to get that type of mpg. Yes I have changed my air filter as suggested and it still is not like it was.

After years of driving Ford's I bought my first Nissan back in August when I decied I wanted to go back to an SUV I absolutely loved it!!! I compared the Rogue SL to the Escape Titanium loved them both but the Nissan was about $8,000 less and has all the features that the Escape had. It's more fun to drive and has a sportier styling. There's not much difference in the gas millage between the too. I just might a Nissan man from now on

I purchased a 2017 nissan rogue for my son.....2 years, 13,000 miles and the bumper separated and the door handle popped out and the door can not be opened from the inside. i have owned 8 other cars and have been driving for 34 years and never had either one of these issues. first time owning a nissan product, last time owning a nissan product. i wouldn't be nearly so upset, but i have had to hound the service department at the dealer i purchased the car to fix these issues.
