2013 Nissan Rogue Body & Structure Problems

Both of your front door actuators have failed, leaving you unable to open the passenger door from any position and unable to open the driver door from the outside. Your passenger was trapped in the vehicle and had to exit through the window. The door locks need to be replaced to restore normal operation.

I have a 2013 Nissan Rogue that is heavily rusted underneath, which makes driving unsafe. Additionally, both the catalytic converter and the transmission are in poor condition. I think Japan should ban Nissan from making more bad cars like this car.

I was driving my car to appointment up a hill and the transmission completely gave out, additionally, since I bought it, It has consistently had problems accelerating, and getting above 45mph. The problem cannot be pinpointed

Every time you drive on the highway going 70 miles per hour the hood of the car moves and makes noise as if it where to pop open

MYSELF WITH MY 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WERE DRIVING FROM NEW HAVEN, CT TO FITCHBURG, MA. ABOUT 1 HOUR INTO THE DRIVE, MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE BEYOND 40MPH!!! WE WERE IN STEADY FAST MOVING TRAFFIC ON A HOT JULY 20TH, 2018 AFTERNOON, HEATWAVE WEATHER! IT WAS TERRIFYING!!! I PUT ON MY BLINKERS AND SLOWLY VEERED TO THE RIGHT LANE! I HAD TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY AND MAKE IT TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION. AFTER SEVERAL FRANTIC CALLS TO FAMILY MEMBERS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, I DECIDED TO ADD ENGINE OIL, ANTI-FREEZE, GAS AND WATER HOPING SOMETHING WOULD HELP. AFTER SITTING FOR AN HOUR, I DROVE ON THE LOCAL ROADS TO TRY OUT THE CAR AGAIN BUT REALIZED I HAD TO GET BACK ON THE HIGHWAY AND TRY TO ACCELERATE ABOVE 60MPH AGAIN!!!! WE MADE IT TO OUR 3 HOUR TRIP DESTINATION. THE NEXT DAY ON THE WAY BACK, THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AND THIS TIME AFTER STOPPING FOR A WHILE MY CAR STILL WOULD NOT ACCELERATE UNTIL WE SAT WITH THE CAR OFF FOR AN HOUR IN THE HEAT IN A TOWN THAT I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH! WE HAD TO USE ALL LOCAL ROADS TO GET BACK HOME AND THAT TOOK DOUBLE THE TIME BECAUSE I HAD TO KEEP PULLING OVER SO THE CAR COULD COOL OFF SOME!!!! SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX RIGHT NOW!!! I'M SO DISGUSTED WITH THIS CAR AND CANNOT WAIT TO GET RID OF IT!!!! IF A LOCATION TAKES OVER AN HOUR TO GET TO, I CAN'T DRIVE THIS CAR!!! MY CAR IS A PEARL WHITE COLOR. THE PAINT PEELING ON THE HOOD AND SIDES OF THE DOOR IS A WHOLE OTHER FRUSTRATING PROBLEM THAT GETS WORSE AND WORSE!!!

PAINT IS CHIPPING OFF OF CAR

THE PAINT IS PEALING EVERYWHERE

PEARL WHITE PAINT IS PEELING OFF FOR NO REASON. RUST IS NOW VISIBLE ON SOME SPOTS. NORMAL USE AND I ONLY HAVE 38,500 MILES ON IT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 2 YEARS AGO WHEN ONLY A QUARTER SIZE SPOT WAS VISIBLE. NOW IT IS MANY MORE AND LARGER SPOTS.

CAR WAS STATIONARY IN OUR DRIVEWAY AT HOME. PASSENGER DOOR FRONT WOULD NOT UNLOCK NOR OPEN WITH THE KEY FOB. TRIED TO UNLOCK IT PHYSICALLY BUT IT WOULD NOT OPEN. GOT INSIDE AND DOOR STILL WOULD NOT UNLOCK NOR OPEN. THE HANDLE OF THE DOOR WOULD NOT MOVE INTO SIDE DOOR OUTSIDE.

WHILE THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE PER SAY, IF WE CAN'T GET YOU TO HELP WITH THIS ISSUE THEN WHO CAN WE TURN TO? A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH OF "2013 NISSAN ROGUE PAINT PROBLEMS" WILL REVEAL A NUMBER OF CONSUMER COMPLAINTS RELATED TO JUST ONE COLOR OF THE CAR, PEARL WHITE. I TOO AM HAVING THIS ISSUE NOW AND IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE TO ME THAT NISSAN HASN'T ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND ISSUED A VOLUNTARY RECALL. SOME PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE FIXED, SOME HAVE NOT. THE DIFFERENCE BEING THEIR WILLINGNESS TO FIGHT FOR IT. AS CONSUMERS, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO "FIGHT" FOR AN APPARENT MANUFACTURER DEFECT TO BE RESOLVED. PAINT CHIPPING IN LARGE PIECES THE WAY IT IS, IS A LOT MORE THAN AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS NOT HARD TO SEE THAT PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IMPROPER PAINT LEADS TO RUST AND RUST LEADS TO BIGGER PROBLEMS. WON'T YOU BE A VOICE FOR US AND HELP US GET THIS RESOLVED? THANKS!

THE INTERIOR HANDLE ON THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT ALLOW THE DOOR TO BE OPENED; THE DOOR CAN ONLY BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE HANDLE. THERE IS A COMPONENT ON THE INSIDE (HIDDEN WHEN LOOKING AT THE DOOR HANDLE) THAT IS BROKEN. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN AN EMERGENCY, AS THE BACKSEAT PASSENGER MUST RELY ON SOMEONE TO OPEN THEIR DOOR IN ORDER TO EXIT THE CAR. THE HANDLE OPENED UNTIL ABOUT A YEAR OF USE; WE WERE IN PARK, THE ENGINE WAS OFF, AND WE REALIZED THE REAR DOOR COULDN'T BE OPENED FROM THE INTERIOR. EVER SINCE, THIS DOOR CAN ONLY BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE HANDLE. THE DOOR HANDLE HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED; THIS RESULTED FROM NORMAL USE.

I WAS VISITING FAMILY IN ARIZONA WITH MY DAUGHTER (WHO IS 100% HANDICAP). MY MOTHER WAS IN THE BACK SEAT WITH MY DAUGHTER. MY FATHER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH ME. CHILD LOCKS ON AND ALL DOORS LOCKED AS THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, GOT A GREEN LIGHT TO TURN LEFT, WAS MAKING THE TURN AND MY DAUGHTER'S DOOR (RIGHT REAR PASSENGER DOOR) FLEW OPEN. MY MOTHER HAD TO GRAB MY DAUGHTER. I STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IN PHOENIX, FATHER JUMPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE, CHECKED MY DAUGHTER AND THE DOOR AND THE CHILD LOCK WAS STILL ON. I CALLED NISSAN AND HAVE AN APPOINTMENT BUT OF COURSE THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS SITUATION BUT TO BRING IT IN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LIGHTING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SPONTANEOUSLY PRODUCED A BLINDING FLASH OF ILLUMINATION. THE DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. UPDATED 5/19/15*CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER ADVISED THEY WOULD HAVE TO WITNESS THE CONDITION IN ORDER TO MAKE A DIAGNOSIS. THE CONSUMER SAW MOISTURE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR BOARD AFTER IT WAS LEFT OUTSIDE DURING RAIN. UPDATED 11/19/15*JS

NHTSA RECALL 15V-032:A MIXTURE OF SNOW/WATER AND CARRIED ONTO THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR AREA CAN SEEP INTO THE CARPET NEAR THE HARNESS CONNECTOR AREA AND EVENTUALLY CAUSE AN ELECTRIC SHORT TO OCCUR. THIS MAY LEAD TO CONNECTOR DAMAGE, POSSIBLY CAUSING A FIRE. *TR
