My car all of a sudden is having electrical issues. The radio is changing stations and volume all by itself. The steering wheel is getting hard to turn. The brake light fuse is burning out right away. I’ve replaced the fuse 3 times already in one week but it keeps burning out within 24hrs or less. My gages are going up and down fast motion. My battery all of a sudden is draining and it is brand new. I only have a little over 60,000. This is not normal at all and it is going to cause me to get in an accident.

Component/System Failed: Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system — specifically the heater door actuator. Description of Problem: In November 2023, I purchased a 2015 Nissan Rogue from Nissan of Merrimack Valley. By January 2024, I began experiencing major heating issues. My independent mechanic confirmed that the heater door actuator had been glued to the HVAC box — a clear concealment of a defect instead of a proper repair. The defective component and photo evidence are available for inspection.The actuator is a known weak point in Nissan Rogue models, and when it fails, the only recommended solution is to replace the entire HVAC box, costing thousands of dollars. This is a design flaw, as a relatively small actuator failure should not require full replacement of the HVAC assembly. Safety Risk: The defective actuator compromises the heating and defrosting functions. During cold weather, the vehicle cannot properly defrost the windshield, which creates a serious visibility hazard and directly endangers driver and passenger safety. In winter conditions, this defect can increase the risk of collisions due to impaired visibility. Inspection by Dealer/Manufacturer/Others: Yes. I contacted the selling dealership (Nissan of Merrimack Valley) multiple times over a three-month period, including calls and in-person visits to a manager, Marc A. Despite the clear evidence, the dealership refused accountability, stating they cannot assist. Nissan corporate has not yet provided resolution. Summary: This is a serious safety concern. The heater door actuator in the Nissan Rogue is poorly designed and prone to failure. Nissan must be held accountable for this design defect that puts lives at risk by impairing safe windshield defrosting in cold climates. I strongly urge NHTSA to investigate this issue and push Nissan to address it, either through a recall or a service campaign, to ensure driver and passenger safety.

It has been going on for years, when I am outside the car - the open drivers side door closes by itself and locks by itself. It does t matter where I am parked. Even on level surfaces the door does this. This can be problematic if the driver is locked out as a result of this. Hot weather is here We don’t want someone locked out or a child locked in. As I say, this has been going on for years. The latest incident was last night. I have formed the habit of holding my key ring in my hand when I exit my car. Again, this habit saved me last night.

It started when I purchased it in February 2025 Mileage was 99200 I noticed the seatbelt warning signs didn’t ding if I didn’t have my seatbelt on. And the sunroof not only was leaking but it is coming apart where it is held in place I’m afraid it will suddenly come down and strike me without notice while driving. Theee days ago I noticed the airbag light came on while I had the driver assist engaged so I stopped and turned the driver assistance light on and then off which caused the airbag light to turn off . But today with 1100 miles on the vehicle I was driving and the light. Came on as I was driving again. I tried turning off the drivers assistance button but the light stays on!!! I’m concerned about the safety while driving with the airbag light, the seatbelt not signaling when the seatbelt is not on it ding to remind me that someone doesn’t have their seat belt on. At lastly , I believe that I am going to be injured by the sunroof motor fulling down while I am driving causing a car wreck and or injuring me or a passenger. The OCS system in the 2015 model needs to be fixed before serious injury occurs.

My car moves after I put it in park. It jerks forward even though I have it in park. Sometimes before I turn the engine off and sometimes after. I believe its the transmission and it should have been recalled but it hasn't.
