2012 Nissan Rogue consumer reviews

I bought the 2012 Rogue SV and we really like the vehicle. It has all the features we need and none of the ones we don't. Its reliable, looks and works great and great fuel economy. Definitely recommended for the price. About the only thing that Nissan needs to fix is that the CVT groans a little bit when going up slopes. But I already knew that before buying the car and its not an issue for me. Recommended buy.

My 2001 Nissan Xterra DIED! I bought the Rogue because of the gas mileage and price. It is 1 inch bigger than a murano. The murano has a slightly better ride and a few more gimmics. However, these gimmics did not add up to the 2-3000 extra in price The car rides wonderfully. The ride will lull you to sleep it is so smooth. So do not turn the heat up to high, make sure you play active music on the stereo. The stereo sounds wonderful. I have the SV and the funk is rolling with me in my car. The sound is full. I get an average of $25 miles per gallon. I sometimes can go for a while in the 50MPG range. (It has a gauge that makes it fun to save gas) Beware. You need a new cell phone to get the bluetooth to work. The USB works for music in the cell phone. But is only limited to the first 1000 songs. The USB input does not play music on my Zune. But it is an older model. The USB for music on my droid bionic does display the album and artist. The video back up is handy. it only shows what is on the ground. So you still have to look around. THE GUY IN VERIZON TOLD ME HIS PHONE PLAYS THROUGH HIS BLUETOOTH CONNECTION. No such luck with the Rogue. However, the AUX input comes in handy to access all my songs. The bluetooth phone function voice commands do not work well. It comes up with some strange dialing. Overall, I love my Rogue. When buying a car, bring your internet device to check rates and payments.

I've only had it for 2 months, and only used it to drive to the Metro Park and Ride near the house for my daily commute to work, so have not had a chance to get it out on the open road yet. So far, it performs well, which I expected. Only concern is that the engine, when cold starting and accelerating, makes a clicking noise similar to engine knocking due to low quality gas. However, when the engine warms up the noise goes away. I find the suspension a bit stiff and the interior amenities are not as useful as my Toyotas. Preliminary gasoline usage indicates about 19+ mpg, all city driving.

we bought this car to replace a Toyota Camry. The ease of getting in and out of it is wonderful (it was our main reason for choosing the Rogue). Since the purchase and a few thousand miles later we are thoroughly enjoying all the bonus extras....heated seats, great stereo, and manuverability in and around curves and up and down mountain ranges.

Just got this car. I was thinking about CRVs and Ravs and some small trucks. I went over to look at the Rogues given family's' good experiences. Between the trade in and price of the car itself, they were dealing very competitively. I got the top of the line Rogue and the Bose sound system, leather, heated seats, bluetooth and navigation etc. which are great. Drives well. We will see how reliable it is but it should be at least above average. I also got tired of shopping for cars with a million different packages and options. The top of the line car Rogue it all in one package.
