On 4/14/26 my local Nissan dealership technician discovered that my rear lower control arm is severely corroded, with a hole rusted completely through the structural metal (see attached dealer photo). The technician flagged this as a critical safety risk. While Nissan previously issued a service campaign (P9324) and a 10-year warranty extension for identical failures in Altima and Maxima models in 'Salt Belt' states, my Rogue is currently excluded. I have been quoted $1,700 by an independent mechanic to replace these parts, and the dealership estimated the cost would be even higher. I am reporting this to document that this safety defect is present in the Rogue fleet and to urge an investigation. This corrosion creates an immediate risk of the control arm snapping, which could lead to a sudden loss of vehicle control.

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving 5-10 MPH on a flat road surface, the contact noticed an abnormal shift in the rear suspension. The contact parked the vehicle. Upon inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed that the passenger's side rear wheel had shifted inward. The contact turned on the hazard lights and drove to the nearest dealer at slow speeds. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the passenger's side rear lower control arm was severely rusted and bent, causing the rear passenger's side wheel to shift inward. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 84,000.

On Wednesday June 21st, I was driving home when a warning light came up on my vehicle. It said: Warning Chassis Control Error see owner's manual. I continued to drive until I reached my house. I wasn't hearing any noises or seeing any fluids, so I decided to look at the manual when I reached the house. I pulled into the driveway and my husband asked what was wrong with my back tire. He could see the tire on the driver side. It was leaning almost sideways. He looked under the car and said it had rusted off. It was completely broken off of the axle. I called AAA to have them tow it to a dealership to make the repairs. The tow driver looked under the car and stated that the passenger wheel was doing the same thing. My car has just a little over 100,000 miles on it. Everyone tells me that this should not happen, and it may be a defect issue. Now over a month later my car is still at the dealership because Nissan has no ETA on when, if ever they will have a right control arm, part # 555014BAOA. If they ever make one, I am still responsible for 5000.00 on repairs. I am out of a vehicle; it has no trade in value. I work every day. I need a vehicle and I am stuck because Nissan won't supply a part. I truly hope someone will investigate this issue. If it happened to me, I'm sure it must have happened to other Nissan owners as well. If they're using defective metal parts, they should be held accountable. I was fortunate enough to make it home without and accident. If those wheels would have come off as I was driving, I could have been injured or killed, and other vehicles and their passengers could have met the same fate. I beg of you to please investigate this further. The consumer stated that the manufacturer has now provided an ETA on the arrival of the replacement part. The consumer will have to pay out of pocket for the repairs.

HI, I BOUGHT THE PARTS FROM ROCKAUTO.COM ON 04/02/2019 AND THEY ARRIVED FEW DAYS LATER AND WERE INSTALLED BY A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC ON THE DAY OF THE DELIVERY. THE PART NUMBER ARE AS FOLLOW MONROE 272898, AND MONROE 272897. THE PARTS WERE INSTALLED ON RIDE SHARING SUV WHICH IS DRIVEN ALMOST CLOSE TO 1000 MILES A WEEK. THE FIRST QUICK STRUT THAT FAILED AND GOT BROKEN WHILE DRIVING WAS ON 05/20/2019 AND IT WAS THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND THE SECOND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE QUICK STRUT FAILED AND GOT BROKEN WHILE DRIVING WAS ON 05/25/2019. THE DRIVER SIDE QUICK STRUT FAILURE ALSO CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE DRIVER SIDE AXLE AS WELL. SO BOTH THE MONROE QUICK STRUTS WERE REPLACED BY ORIGINAL USED NISSAN STRUTS ON THE VEHICLE AS WELL THE LEFT AXLE WAS REPLACED BY THE AFTERMARKET COMPANY AXLE. ROCKAUTO.COM WILL ONLY REPLACE THE PARTS WITH ANOTHER SETS OF MONROE QUICK STRUTS AND THEY WILL NOT ISSUE ANY REFUND. I COULD UNDERSTAND IF ONE OF THE STRUT IS DEFECTIVE BUT BOTH OF THEM IS A WHOLE ANOTHER ISSUE. BY VISUALLY I COMPARED BOTH USED NISSAN COMPLETE STRUT ASSEMBLY WITH BRAND NEW MONROE QUICK STRUT AND MONROE QUICK STRUT HAS BEEN MADE POORLY AS THE BUILT QUALITY IS UTTERLY DISAPPOINTING AND CANT HANDLE EVERYDAY USE OF THE SUV. MINOR BUMPS CAUSE NOISES AND THEN FINALLY THEY GIVE OUT BY GETTING BROKEN FROM THE MOUNT ITSELF. IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THESE MONROE QUICK STRUT INSTALLED ON NISSAN ROGUE MODEL (OLD BODY STYLE). PLEASE TAKE ACTION AND REMOVE THEM FROM ALL THE STORES AS THEY WILL BREAK DOWN AND FALL APART AND COULD CAUSE MAJOR DAMAGE.

Remedy: Dealers will remove the harness tape and harness covering and replace both connectors and apply white lithium grease to the connectors as necessary, free of charge.
