I was driving in snowy conditions and vehicle began baulking as if it was going to stall. A chassis system control warning displayed on th dash. I contacted the dealership and they advised it was due to the slippery road conditions. They advised to turn the vehicle off and back on and the warning would disappear/reset. I did this and the warning was removed however, brief moments of random "baulking" continued. A few days later I was travelling on a multi lane highway in a snow storm. The vehicle began to severely "baulk" and then the vehicle stalled completely. I was traveling very slowly due to the road conditions and the stall was so sudden, there was not enough momentum to get pulled over to the side of the road. I tried to restart the vehicle. It would start for 2-3 seconds a

Own a 2015 Nissan rogue with 85k miles on it. Check engine light came on. Took to dealership. They performed diagnostics and gave the code P1740 and P0725. They told me the CVT transmission issue and needed to be replaced. Didn't have issues with the car up to this point and did all my service in Nissan dealer at the right time. Researched and saw that Nissan had issues with their CVT transmissions including the Rogue model and year I had. If there is an issue with the transmission, why are they allowed to still sell it? A bad transmission can cause an accident when driving or in reverse. It's 5504 dollars to repair/replace and no guarantee that the transmission they put in will work properly either. Called Nissan and they say they can't help because it is out of warranty. This issue ha

I was driving on freeway with cruise control on and noticed a couple of 'slips' in the transmission that made the car slow down and 'jerk'. Thinking it might have been a bit of bad gas, I kept driving for about 20 minutes. At one point the car seemed to slip into neutral and the tachometer revved up to about 8000 RPM even though the car was still in drive. I pulled over on the off-ramp and then I lost all ability to move using any gear. I did not see any warning lights. The car is at a shop now to diagnose. Had this happened while on the freeway, who knows what might have happened.

Car stops accelerating randomly. Some days it won't go over 60mph while I'm already driving on the thruway. Other days it will drop speed from 70 to 60 and I have no control over acceleration. This always happens on the highway.

The airbag light comes on for no reasons and after spending the money to test it, the mechanics suggested multiple defects (clock spring, module, etc). There is no hit or anything and yet it just becomes faulty.

12/30/2015 1,000 mi ODI #10816929.0

The inactive passenger's airbag which indicates that the passenger airbag is disabled stays illuminated even when an adult sits in the seat. This is intermittent. Sometimes restarting the car will no other changes will fix the issue (the light stops being illuminated). I have no idea whether this relates to the airbag itself, the sensor, or the light. *js

Beginning in july I began having issues with the airbag light it was off when it should be on and on when it should be off it has been to the dealership on multiple occasions and multiple sources have looked at it but continue to blame myself and family. I have pictorial evidence to show people sitting in the seat in the airbag is off and pictorial evidence showing that the airbag should be on. It's been "repaired" multiple times to no success. *tr

12/20/2022 ODI #11498248.0

My horn stopped working and my airbag light came on. Now I don’t know if my airbag is going to randomly deploy. The dealership wants more than $600 to fix this faulty part and there are several forums suggesting that this is a known problem. How can a single mother keep herself and her teen driver’s safe while driving this car?

I was driving and my sunroof exploded spontaneously. Bridgewater Nissan and Nissan cooperation said it was due to impact, even though they could not prove it. I had to report it to my insurance to cover the damages. Nissan could not even support a valuable customer and pay for my deductible.
