2008 Nissan Rogue

I HAVE TALKED WITH CONSUMER AFFAIRS @ NISSAN AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY CAN'T HELP ME WITH THE REPAIRS. IF YOU GET ON NISSAN ROGUE WEBSITE, YOU WILL SEE THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I CAN'T OPEN MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. THERE ARE SOME COMMENTS THAT THEY CAN'T OPEN OUTSIDE OR INSIDE ON THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. I JUST WANTED SOMEONE TO KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GET KILLED BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THANKS *TR

OUTSIDE PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE STOPPED WORKING. HAVE BEEN READING TONS OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER ROGUE OWNERS WHO ARE ALSO HAVING THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND NISSAN IS NOT HONORING THESE DEFECTS AND FIXING THEM. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. AT WHAT POINT DOES A RECALL HAVE TO BE ISSUED WHEN THIS PROBLEM IS SO INCREDIBLY PREVALENT?? WE NOW HAVE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. NOW WE'RE JUST WAITING FOR THIS TO OCCUR AT SOME POINT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AS WELL!!!! APPARENTLY THE LINKAGES WITHIN THE DOOR HANDLE MECHANISMS ARE FAULTY AND "FALL APART" IS WHAT I AM GATHERING FROM EVERYONE ELSE'S COMPLAINTS. PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ~65MPH ON THE INTERSTATE IN STEADY TRAFFIC ON DRY ASPHALT, THE PASSENGER-SIDE REAR DOOR WINDOW "EXPLODED." THE PASSENGER SEATS WERE IN THE DOWN (FLAT) POSITION; MOST OF THE GLASS FELL IN TO THE CAR, BUT ENOUGH BLEW OUT OF THE CAR TO EMBED IN/SCRATCH THE EXTERIOR PAINT. NISSAN DEALER IN THE AREA OF OUR TRAVEL VACUUMED THE GLASS OUT OF THE CAR AND LOOSELY COVERED THE WINDOW SPACE WITH MASKING TAPE AND PLASTIC SEAT COVERS (THE KIND USED TO COVER THE SEAT FOR TRANSPORT AND/OR GARAGE WORK). SINCE THIS WAS A ROAD TRIP SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES FROM HOME, WE HAD TO REINFORCE THE PLASTIC COVER JOB WITH HEAVY CARDBOARD, ADDITIONAL PLASTIC, AND TAPE SO WE COULD DRIVE THE INTERSTATE AND PROTECT THE CAR FROM FURTHER DAMAGE, WIND, AND RAIN. I CONTACTED MY HOME DEALERSHIP TO ADVISE OF THE INCIDENT AND REQUEST THAT PARTS BE ORDERED TO MAKE REPAIR ASAP AFTER I RETURNED HOME AND TO FIND OUT IF INCIDENT IS COVERED BY FACTORY WARRANTY. REPAIR IS DELAYED BY HOLIDAY WEEKEND; WARRANTY COVERAGE HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED. LUCKILY, WE HAD NO BACK SEAT PASSENGERS. *TR

2008 NISSAN ROGUE: BACK REAR WINDOW BEHIND THE DRIVER'S SIDE EXPLODED SENDING GLASS ALL OVER THE CAR AND ON THE DRIVEWAY. THE CAR HAD BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 15 PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. HE WOULD NOT EVEN TALK TO ME. HE SAID IT WAS NOT UNDER THEIR WARRANTY AND THAT IT BELONGED TO ME AND THE BANK NOW. I TURNED IT IN TO MY COMPREHENSION INSURANCE AND HAD THE WINDOW REPLACED. THE GLASS HIT THE SEAT SO HARD THAT IT EMBEDDED ABOUT 2 INCHES DEEP INTO THE SEAT. THE SEAT COVER HAD TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. ALSO, THE PAINT ON THE DOOR WAS SCRATCHED FROM THE GLASS COMING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR. I HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE FIXED MYSELF (WITH INSURANCE) AT A COST OF OVER $1900. NISSAN SAID THAT ALL OF THEIR CARS WERE CHECKED THOROUGHLY SO THERE IS NO WAY THAT THERE COULD BE A DEFECT EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A NEW MODEL FOR NISSAN AND I AM SURE THEY DO NOT HAVE ALL THE FACTS ON THIS MODEL AS YET. *TR

MY BAND NEW 2008 ROGUE WAS HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. MY CAR WAS NOT MOVING AND THE OTHER CAR BACKED INTO MY CAR GOING ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR. MY BUMPER WAS COMPLETING DENTED INWARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. MY HEADLIGHT ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME MY NEW CAR HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT FOR A MINOR FENDER BENDER FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. *TR
