Can’t fix but can keep producing

I loved my Nissan, then the Head unit went in October and it’s now March and Nissan can’t fix it because they don’t have the parts! It’s the middle of March. On March 17th it will be a year and the car has been broke longer than it’s worked and can’t seem to be fixed! The car has the following issues, a fuel pump issue, warnings go off for no reason, it’s louder than it should be (a fire wall issue). Dispute having videos, Nissan can’t duplicate the issue so nothing can be done! The head unit with controls the cameras, radio, and charging ports and may be affecting the safety sensors, can’t be replaced because Nissan can’t get the parts! Yet they can keep making them? So I was told today after a month in a rental to come get my car in the same condition it was when I left it there! They can’t get parts! Update: So the head unit in the car took 8 months to fix, Nissan promised compensation and did not ever send, the car starting became hit or miss on the first attempt often taking extra time to get where I needed to be, come to find out another recall, While there was so many things to like about the vehicle, It’s not worth the stress and aggravation. It was the 2nd Nissan I owned and I can tell you there will never be a 3rd unless it’s given to me free and even then I think I would get rid of it. So in summary, the head unit only worked for the first 6 months, it was replaced and still rebooted all the time, the window issue was never repaired even though they claimed they replaced it, The fuel pump issue was never repaired cause they couldn’t duplicate however I had no problems recording the issue everyday. I wouldn’t recommend the Nissan to my worst enemy. I often wonder if the reviews on the vehicle on different websites are not bought. In my experience, it was an unreliable piece of junk that I am glad to be rid of! I owned the car exactly 2 years to the day, I purchased a Subaru forester, in witch I got better financing (2.9% verses Nissan 6.89%) and more options for less money.

Nervous new Rogue owner

Update: Nissan shop said it was a failed battery issue and replaced the battery free of charge. How a brand new car battery can already be dead is beyond me. We are hoping this was a one time scare. Original review: We bought a brand new 2023 Rogue, with the hopes of having a safe, reliable family car. After just one month of ownership, and less than 1,000 miles, it’s already in the shop. As we were driving with kids on a busy road, the engine power cut out and the dash displayed a Reduced Engine Power / Engine Malfunction light. Thankfully we were able to limp off of the highway. But this was not how we anticipated our new Rogue ownership to go. Had to get a tow truck, Uber with car seats. Nightmare. Thankfully, our dealer provided a free loaner car. This service was promised by them at the time of purchase. We are nervously awaiting the diagnostic results. Will keep this updated. To anyone out there considering buying a new Rogue, my advice is to make sure the dealer you buy it from provides free loaners.

Gas Leak in 2023 Rogue

2023 Rogue-Do not recommend! Gas smell inside cabin and outside of car. The smell did not start right away but was noticeable after about 2000 miles. Took the Rogue to Nissan dealership, and they said Nissan is aware of the issue and that the Rogue is under Engineering Review. Nissan dealership said they checked for gas leaks to make sure there was no safety problem, but that there was nothing else to do until Nissan issues a recall or figures out a fix for wherever the gas is leaking. I hope I can trust that my Rogue is actually safe while we wait on this fix. Disappointing to have a brand new Nissan with no fix. I would not recommend to anyone else to buy a 2023 Rogue until they have a fix unless you want to be stuck with no loaner car while yours is in the service department not getting fixed.

New to Nissan

My first experience with any Nissan product and so far so good. Purchased this vehicle at the end of June after my 2013 Outback was totaled in an accident. I considered another Subaru Outback but there were some issues it had I was unwilling to live with namely all controls on a touch screen and lane keeping dependent on cruise control being engaged. As I mentioned earlier, this is my first Nissan product. The cabin is airy and bright. The seats are excellent and very supportive. Even the rear seats are pretty decent. As to the level of cabin noise, a cargo cover remedied a good portion of that. Outward visibility is quite good but a bit restricted out of the back. The BSW is helpful with that. The safety technology is excellent and very customizable. Adaptive cruise control is a treat and lane keeping is quite good especially if you are left hand dominant. Engine power is more than sufficient. This is not my first turbo engine car and is my second car with CVT. The turbo is oil cooled only so be sure you check oil levels frequently and change the oil regularly but more frequently than Nissan states. BTW, NIssasn 0W-20 oil is repackaged Mobil 1 according to the dealer. For those of you who have never owned a turbo engine car, a few pointers. When the engine is cold, drive it gently for the first 5 to 7 miles so everything warms up . After a run on the highway let the engine idle for about 3-5 minutes otherwise you risk damaging the turbocharger bearing. Also, this engine suffers from a bit of turbo lag. That can be remedied by replacing the factory air filter with a K&N air filter. I have been using K&N filters for years and they work as advertised. As for the CVT, I have found a light right foot serves me best. CVTs do not have gears like a traditional transmission. There is a special steel belt that connects two pulleys that can vary in size thus your gear ratios. Passing someone does not require mashing the gas pedal. Pressing the gas about 1/3 to 1/2 down generally yields the desired result. You just need to learn where that place is. The Rogue handles reasonably well considering that the tires leave something to be desired. Adding a pound or two more of air above the minimum is helpful. March 2024. Just broke 6000 miles on the Rogue. So far so good. Have had a few momentary electronic glitches that have not recurred. namely false sensor readings related to traction control. Fuel economy is quite good per the computer ranging from 38 MPG down to 23 MPG. Cold weather really saps the fuel economy. I did try multiple tankfuls of 93 octane fuel in a row. The engine actually has more power and runs differently. Fuel economy is also up 3.5 miles per gallon. On 87 octane fuel acceleration is pretty good. Consistently use 93 octane and acceleration is noticeably quicker. Climate controls are good and there is plenty of heat in a very short time on cold mornings. The heated steering wheel, a first for me, was a treat. The heated seats are good too. The adaptive cruise control is a delight. The car almost drives itself on the open highway with minimal intervention on my part. Car and Drive/Motor Trend complain about a noisy interior. Whether I am wearing my hearing aids or not, I find it fairly quiet. I purchase a cargo cover from Nissan when new and it does help quash noise from the cargo area behind the rear seats. Adding a couple of pounds of air to the tires helps handling but the ride isn't as cushy. Minor road imperfections are more pronounced. The transmission works well but as with any CVT, a light right foot is recommended. Passing someone does NOT require mashing the gas pedal to the floor. There is a ton of torque between 1800 to 3200 RPM and if you have 93 octane fuel in the tank, hang on as the Rogue will accelerate quite quickly.
