My wife’s car and she loves it, I’m a big guy and find it uncomfortable. But…. In the 11 years we have owned it all I have ever done was put a set of tires on and rear brakes. Most dependable car we’ve ever owned.

KNOWN issue with engines overheating and the vehicle stopping. Purchased a 2014 Nissan Rogue with 95,000 miles on it back in the summer of 2021. It currently has 102,00 miles. All was running well until the temperatures starting climbing into the 90’s consistently. While travelling on the turnpike at 75 mph, the engine suddenly shut down and I began coasting until I stopped. I tried restarting the car but to no avail. I called a tow truck to tow me back home 35 miles. I started doing research as to why this happened. It’s two-sided. The good part was that it shut the engine down before it overheated. The bad part was that I did need a new part for the transmission per the Nissan Dealership. The Nissan Dealership then said I needed an “engine cooler” which will eliminate this from happening again. The cost: $1500.00 and it NOT covered by the extended warranty. The engine overheating is a KNOWN issue yet Nissan is doing nothing about it. If it wasn’t for their KNOWN issue, I wouldn’t have to purchase the “engine cooler”. It’s time for a Class-action lawsuit! I’ve spoken to Nissan Consumer Affairs customer service about my $1500 cost for the engine cooler. They did nothing but escalate it to a Supervisor who escalated it to the “Executive Team” and they all say the same thing: “The cars warranty is only to 60,000 miles” and there’s nothing they can do. Yes there is! How about standing behind a KNOWN issue with your vehicles (it happens to more than just the Rogue) and replace the engine cooler at no charge! Bottom line is I will NEVER purchase another Nissan vehicle based on them not standing behind their KNOWN issue. Make sure you think twice about purchasing a Nissan vehicle in the future as there may be a KNOWN problem down the road that they refuse to stand up to. Update 8/5/24: A Nissan “Executive Team” member called me this morning to discuss further. It was a waste of time. She mentioned several times that the car warranty had expired and that any “goodwill” was declined because of “lack of service calls” and the change of ownership. I explained the change of ownership was from my father who passed away at 87 years old (no response of Sorry to hear that!) and I asked why I HAD to have service calls if nothing was wrong. She started spewing out that the vehicles manual had suggested certain changes like transmission fluid etc…..I told her that is a cop-out excuse and if Nissan stood behind their vehicles, then they would process as a goodwill gesture. She wouldn’t budge. I asked if Nissan was willing to split the $1500 cost. The answer was a firm, No. So much for Nissan. I’ll never purchase another. Apparently $750 means a lot more to them than me posting my bad experience with the company and hopefully costing them way more than that. Shop elsewhere.

This vehicle has been very reliable and never broke down. We performed regular recommended maintenance and owned 7 years after it was paid off. Good value, comfortable, has good cargo space without being a large SUV.

Wooooof. Save yourself a headache and don’t go Nissan. Bought my 2013 Nissan rogue with 30k miles on it. 50k miles later (2 years into my loan) the transmission crapped the bed after leaving me almost unable to drive on the highway at the holidays. $3k later for a new transmission, it still sucks. Barely can go over 40 miles per hour without making TERRIBLE noises. And it was noisy to begin with. Since the 80k mile marker, it’s been an endless downhill. I was still paying off the car and pouring THOUSANDS into it. Now, the trunk doesn’t stay locked for reasons unknown to me. While I’m driving the light will pop up saying that it’s open when it’s not. The driver side back door does this as well now. It’s been a never ending headache to be honest. And while Nissan had a class action lawsuit to cover the transmission issues in the older models, it hasn’t for the 2013+ so the transmission issue was something I had to cover myself. I’ve finished paying it off now and I’m going to sell it as soon as I can because I’m sick of only being able to go 30mph.

This car is an absolute bag of xxxx. I bought a 2013 Nissan rogue SV sport as my first ever car around November 2021 at 50,000 miles from capitol motor group in patchogue/Medford. As soon as we payed the people at the dealer told us the car didn’t have clips to keep the bumper connected to quarter panel. Why would you tell us that AFTER we bought the car? So that left a sour taste in my mouth to start. then Not even a week into having the car, I get a flat. No biggie. Easy fix. Around $100 for a new tire. Then around june 2022 the trunk actuator went out causing my trunk to stay unlocked causing it to stay open at all times. This resulted in alarms and having to start my car every hour to make sure the battery didn’t short out. Not only was it extremely annoying, it was also a $480 fix. Then in November 2022 same issue but the actuator in the front driver side door went. This time the door was stuck on lock and wouldn’t unlock. This caused me to have to crawl into my passenger seat and get in and out of my car that way. That was a $380 fix. I should also mention that I don’t slam my doors or trunk and get annoyed when others do so. So how this issue occurred I have no clue. Then in September of 2023 I was involved in a hit and run where I got the xxx end of my car TAPPED. When I tell you this guy was doing maybe 5-10 mph I mean it. I was expecting maybe a dent and a scratch and all would be good, I mean he barely hit me right? The bumper completely broke in half down the middle. Why? The bumper and most other important protection areas are made of PLASTIC. My bumper literally CRACKED in half. That I didn’t even bother to fix because that woulda been around a $1000 job. Plus it’s not really a major issue to me so whatever. Then the icing on the cake. In November of 2023 At 100,000 miles the car won’t start. Tried the battery but the car still has working lights so it’s not the battery. You can hear the fuel pump engage so it’s not fuel pump. I have a feeling it’s either the starter or the ignition switch. If it’s the alternator, I’m just gonna light the xxxx thing on fire. Both the starter and the ignition switch are around $200-$500 jobs. So in 2 years I’ve poured about $2500 into this thing with only fixes. Now keep in mind $40 for a full tank of gas every 2 days for commuting to work. I’m planning on selling it ASAP and If I were you, I’d stay far the xxxx away from this bag of xxxx.

I have a 2013 Nissan rogue sv/Sl package. I love my Nissan for the cameras, and the easy to park. The mpg isn’t the best, it says 24 combined, but over the 2 years over owned mine it’s gone down from 24 to 20. Recently drove 4 hours and was going great at 70 mph but anything faster it goes down, but great for city driving.

I'm short with back problems ..the seat(s ) incline really hurts me. I had blind spots.could not reach anything and cup holder awkward.. I got a pillow ..I sat up higher..still uncomfortable but blind spots were better..Hit head getting in now. I am not sure of the cvt..I feel uncomfortable ..I like it ..in town.. but not on hills. It did do very well in the winter..wore tires well..
