What kind of poorly designed lemon allows a back seat

What kind of poorly designed lemon allows a back seat passenger to kick a water bottle under the front passenger seat, thus DISABLING THE AIRBAG! This is by far the most distressing part of this low end SUV for me. The noise, the shimmies, the lack of comfort, the cheapness, is all trumped by a faulty airbag system that WILL kill someone in time!

Replaced the drivers door window system 5/2023 when it

Replaced the drivers door window system 5/2023 when it failed, now in 2024 THE SAME ISSUE. This time they claim it's deeper into the wire harness. They also announced a related recall (wire corrosion) but they eliminated my recall repair over car milage. Sketchy at best, it's a safety issue that has a fire risk, small as that may be but it relates to the device failure as well. That's not standing up for the vehicle repair or the underlying known related recall issue. It's quoted for another $1000 needed over last year's $500 repair for the same net problem.

The Best Car I Have Ever Owned, 2016 Rogue SL

I bought my 2016 Rogue SL in 2016 and it is now 2024. I have to say it is one of the best cars I have ever owned, I only have 58,000 miles on it going into my 8th year of ownership. I did not get the moonroof as that was not a problem I wanted, but I did get the SL with the Red exterior and Almond interior (all leather). It has hands free talking and texting, lots of whistle and bells, it beeps when backing up if there is a car or person behind you, and the excellent stereo system for just a few of the SL features. I did not have the blind spot monitor( I wish I did) or the adaptive cruise control, other than that I have every other option. The best gas mileage I got was 36mpg on the highway, and I could drive from Atlanta to Mobile on one tank of guess which is awesome. I have taken very good care of the car with a regular maintained schedule with all the records in the glove box and I have never had one problem with this car at all. The smooth ride had sold me over and I also have a KIA Sorento of the same year, and it rides like a freight train compared to the rogue. Maybe I just got lucky, and got a great car, but everyone I talk to that has a Rogue all seem to love theirs as well as I do mine. I can only hope the newer models are as reliable as my 2016, as I plan on driving it until it can no longer go or I wear out before it does. This is just my honest opinion; I am no car salesman or have any stock or reason to brag on my Nissan Rogue, other than it has been a great ride these last going on 8 years.

Transmission Issues!!!

The transmission has been slipping since 80,000 miles. Recently had an issue where after sitting at a red light the car would not shift out of first gear. The Rouge takes off VERY slowly and if I try to give it some gas the car struggles to shift between first and second gear.

I had owned Nissan vehicle for years.

It has awesome features. I love the Blue Tooth, navigation ,the folding seats and it came with its own mats. It gives you a nice smooth ride.
