2017 Nissan Rogue Sport

When I accelerated after being at a complete stop, my vehicle would not move at first. The RPMs shot up, but no movement. I was at a busy intersection and the situation was bothersome but there was no accident. I very slowly pressed the gas pedal again and the vehicle went forward. This is not the first time this has happened. Current mileage is 89,600. This type of problem began around 75,000 miles but has not been a weekly occurrence. This has not been confirmed by a dealer nor inspected. No warning lights came on. There has been hesitation in acceleration for about 2 months but I thought it was possibly bad fuel. There are times the RPMs will greatly increase without speed increasing.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport. The contact stated that occasionally at start-up and while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would stall without warning. The contact used a code reader to diagnose the failure, but no results were found. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure and informed him that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

I was driving my car and in the middle of me driving it completely stalled out in the middle of the road. I was lucky enough to hurry and put it in park before my brakes and gas locked on me. I turned the car off and turned it back on but was unsuccessful in getting the car to do anything except for drift back into traffic. I was stranded in the middle of the road and needed triple A to come and help. It completely stalled out.

My car had less the 30,000 mi on it. It 28,700mi at the time of incident. I bought it brand new in 2018. So this year my warranty expired in April 2021. In June my cooling fan went out and I had no a/c plus the car was not drivable due to it overheating. I’m in Idaho we were have 100-110 degree days here. I had no car for a month and a half because I was told that they don’t make the cooling fans anymore and the dealership couldn’t get ahold of one for that period of time. Meanwhile I lost my job we don’t have busses and I couldn’t get rides or afford ubers/ taxis everyday several times a day. It was awful. I know this issue has to be known to Nissan. Shouldn’t there have been a safety recall by now?!? Also at the exact same time as the cooling fan went out the fuel pump went out too! Now mind you this car was brand new is three years old with less then 30,000mi on it. So the warranty had expired three months prior they can’t get the part to replace it for 1 1/2months so I have no car during that time loose my job and have to foot the bill for replacing both the cooling fan and the fuel pump. Okay I believe this make, model, and year NEEDS to have a mandatory safety recall ASAP. For goodness sake look at how many people have had to replace their cooling fans on their car! That’s not OKAY. I Demand that something be done to fix this BEFORE someone’s car catches fire and someone ends up dying!

The passenger airbag sensor on my dashboard has been on constantly even if the seat is empty for two years and has been passing inspection. However, for some odd reason, my car failed inspection this year due to the airbag light. It costs over $2200 to fix. My Altima also has this issue. Nissan needs to recall this issue. It’s becoming a common problem with your cars.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while entering and starting the vehicle, after two minutes the contact noticed black smoke coming from underneath the hood of the vehicle. The contact exited the vehicle and noticed a puddle of radiator fluid leaking from underneath the vehicle. The contact called the emergency road safety insurance and the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who inspected the vehicle and diagnosed a failure with the cooling fan malfunction. The contact was informed that the cooling fan needed to be replaced however, the part was no longer being manufactured. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.

On June 30, 2021 my Nissan Rogue was operating normally. My husband and I stopped at a store and I ran in while he stayed in the car. After about 10 minutes or so my husband came into the store to tell me my vehicle had started smoking, so he shut it off. It did not want to start again. After waiting 30 minutes the vehicle started and there were no problems, but I wanted to drive the car to my dealership just to check. While at the dealership, the vehicle began smoking out of the engine again, and now liquid was dripping onto the floor. It is my understanding that it got so hot in the engine that my washer fluid reservoir melted and that was the liquid dripping onto the ground. After having the vehicle towed to another repair shop, they advised me that I need a replacement cooling fan, but that part is not available in the United States at the moment. It has now been over a month and there is no update on when the part might be available, and neither my dealership nor repair shop nor Nissan will provide me with a working vehicle while mine is out. The engine could have caught on fire, endangering my husband and I and anyone driving near us. We were told Nissan is aware of this issue and isn't doing anything about it. There were no warning lamps prior to this happening. Several months prior the vehicle was in the repair shop for the A/C not working properly, a sound coming from my A/C blower, and the bluetooth not working properly.

The cooling fan for my 2017 Nissan Rogue is defective. The repair shop said there are 2 to three month backlogs to replace the defective fans in the Rogue model because the initial version of the fan as defective (apparently here are 100os of Rogues broken down waiting for the new version of the fan). This is a safety issue as well as a product defect issue as a vehicle breakdown in traffic is possible due to this defect. The defective fans are still being sold on the market and Nissan is not acknowledging the problem.

IN THIS Report: On my vehicle, the cooling fan assembly completely went out without warning, and when i seen the temp gauge starting to climb to the hot, i immediately shut the engine off. Bobb's Automotive checked it out and stated that the cooling fan faulted out. This auto repair shop also stated that the actual whole system faulted out on over 150+ other vehicles acrossed the country. And with this being said: Nissan is AWARE OF THE FAULTY SYSTEMS. they are in the process of Totally Redesigning of the Cooling Fan System. I further found out that Nissan is not covering the cost of the part, nor are they IMPOSING A RECALL ON THESE FAULTY COOLING FAN SYSTEMS. AT THIS POINT, MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP ON THE ACCOUNT OF NO COOLING FANS AVAILABLE IN THE USA. BUT AT THE SAME TIME NISSAN INFACT IS ADMITTING GUILT AT THIS TIME, BUT NOT ISSUING A RECALL . SOMTHING SHOULD BE DONE TO WARN OTHER NISSAN VEHICLE OWNERS BEFORE THEY EXPERIANCE THE SAME ISSUE, AND WHICH THEY MAY ALREADY HAVE, BUT HAS YET BEEN REPORTED. PLUS MY OPPINION IS THIS, .....IF THEY ARE TOTALLY REDESIGNING THE COOLING FAN SYSTEM, THERE IS A REASON...THEY KNOW THE ISSUE AND STILL WANT TO PASS THESE FAULTY COOLING FANS OFF ON THEIR VEHICLES.
