Beautiful looking car.

I wanted a SUV with backup camera and a sunroof...thats was all! I thought i would end up with a 2008 or something but nissan rogue is in the price range of about 12000 which was perfect! Beautiful looking exterior, a bit of a sacrifice in the interior. Pretty bland but it looks good. music bangs. Its a good car for the price range.

Needs More Legroom, But Otherwise Okay.

I bought the car used, and until recently it was fine. However, the transmission began failing, and I found out that it was an extremely expensive fix. Because it is a CVT, you cannot repair components of it, the entire thing needed replacing.

Comfortable, Safe feeling, Nice!

I test drove and loved it. I feel safe and it's everything I was looking for in a SUV. Lots of room. Great ride. Smooth.

Most Reliable Car I Owned

Loves this car...bought new, had for 7 years, and only major repair needed was the A/C (and I live in hot Texas). Only traded in because we needed more room (third on the way, but accommodated two well).

High quality vehicle for the price.

It drives and handles very well. Feels more like a sports car than a crossover. The interior is very comfortable and roomy for 5 people.

Very reliable and economical. Still 27 mi to gaL,

SEEN ALOT OF THEM ON ROAD. SO MUST BE EXTREMELY AWESOME. As a matter of fact, our 2012 Rogue Nissan uses one tank of fuel from El Paso to Phoenix.

Not a bad car

I liked it since i had buy a car fast since my old ford was on its way out I bought it with 19000 miles on it . Now that I owned for 3 years I only had to put a battery in but to my surprise I had to put in lower control arms on both sides dealer said and showed my how the rubber buschings had dried out & cracked thank god I bought the extra warranty so only cost the $100 deductible the work was over $1.200 also had serpentine belt replaced showing signs of ware. Otherwise the car is a good car.

A great small SUV

The car was exactly what we were looking for. We wanted something safe and reliable for our 23 year old daughter. It is AWD and has antilock brakes. It's a small SUV so easy to maneuver but a bit bigger and safer
