Just got the 2021 rogue sv (traded in my 18 sv). Dealer went over all the new NIFTY features but never highlighted the removal of some important features of the 18. This includes, Power tailgate Heated seats Separated back cargo I'm also not happy with the location of the ac vents mainly the middle ones. The bottom lip of the screen blocks the top of the vents and I feel like portion of the air bounces off and is lost

DO NOT BUY THE 2021/2022 NISSAN ROGUE!

This Nissan model is plagued with transmisssion problems, which are now the subject of a class-action lawsuit. I bought my 2021 Rogue in December 2020 and it has been in the shop 4 times since May 20211. When I climb the steep hill to my house and push the STOP button, the SUV makes a terrifying clunk of metal on metal and lunges forward! It doesn't normally do this on flat land, but will once in a while. The Nissan dealer service center (I've been to 3 different ones) claim they don't see the problem--there's no problem if they can't recreate it, mind you. Well, all dealerships are on flat land, not a mountaintop! I've contacted Nissan Corporate about their supposed Buy Back Program and was told that I have 2 years left on my manufacturer's warranty and they are just sure it will be addressed in that timeframe. There are not many negative reviews for this SUV out there, but I suspect most owners don't drive a 30-degree incline 4x a day, so they may not experience the same problem. Though the interior is lovely, cabin technology is current, passenger and cargo space is generous, and handling is good, I still DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SUV BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I suspect that if I kept it, I'll be sinking thousands into continuous trips to the service center---which will all result in "we don't see a problem." I am trading it in today for a Lexus UX 250h and I pray it does not disappoint me like the Nissan Rogue has. I understand that the Nissan Path Finder has the same transmission with similar problems.

Same transmission like the others

Bought 2021 rogue only in May 2021. With only less than 1k miles, my car started to experience acceleration problems where you can go any faster than 40mph while RPM shoots up to 5-7. I recorded 2 incidents and showed to Nissan but all they say they found no code! This is really a threat to our safety and Nissan keeps on ignoring the issues. They don’t give a damn

What a Lemon! Buyers Beware!

I leased a 2021 Nissan Rogue SV and less than 24 hours after I drove it out of the dealership, a warning ⚠️ appeared "Engin Malfunction, Reduced Power, Service Now". Went to the dealership the next day and received BS answers one after the other. The warning has come up 7 timed in the 5 months I have had it and I have taken the car in twice now and left it so they can figure out why the warning comes on. The first time for 3 weeks and the second time for 7 weeks. To this day, they have no solution, they don't know why it happens yet they say the car is safe to drive and they release it back to me. The Willowdale Nissan Manager (Jino Park) and Salesperson (Roger Peng) ignored my emails. The Service department said there's nothing they can do and the customer satisfaction managers also care more about their own pockets than making customers happy. The issue is still not fixed and I have to continue paying for this car until the end of my lease in 3 years, which to me feels like I'm flushing my money down the toilet every month!!! Nissan doesn't care at all about customers and their car buying experience! This has been a nightmare and the worst car-buying experience I have ever had! Never Again!!! Buy anything but Nissan!!!
