HEATING / AC FAN SUDDENLY STARTED MAKING LOUD NOISES WHEN FAN WAS TURNED ON. THIS IS ON A VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD. LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP MECHANIC INVESTIGATES THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM, DISCOVERS THE FAN AREA HAS LEAVES AND DEBRIS IN IT THAT WAS CAUSING THE NOISE. NISSAN REFUSES TO COVER THE DEBRIS REMOVAL UNDER THE MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, LEAVING OWNERS ON THE HOOK FOR HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS OF LABOR TO ADDRESS A DESIGN DEFECT. A BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH REVEALED OTHER ROGUE OWNERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE DEBRIS CLOGS UP AT A POINT BEHIND THE DASH THAT IS ALL BUT IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN OWNER TO REACH HIMSELF. SO WHEN THIS HAPPENS YOU ARE PRETTY MUCH GUARANTEED AN EXPENSIVE LABOR BILL FROM THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. EITHER THAT, OR GO WITHOUT HEATING OR A/C. I HAD TO PAY MY DEALERSHIP $85 IN LABOR TO PULL A HANDFUL OF LEAVES OUT OF A VEHICLE THAT IS BASICALLY BRAND NEW. IF NISSAN REFUSES TO DESIGN A CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM THAT WON'T FREQUENTLY CLOG UP WITH DEBRIS, THEY SHOULD AT LEAST COVER THE LABOR FOR DEBRIS REMOVAL UNDER THEIR WARRANTY. *TR

THE MOONROOF DOESN'T OPEN ALL THE WAY & THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT ALL ROGUES DO THAT. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I PICKED UP ONLY A FEW DAYS AGO & THE MOONROOF OPENS MAYBE A LITTLE MORE THAN HALFWAY. THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT. *TR
