2021 Nissan Rogue sport problems

nissan logo

The Nissan Rogue is a compact crossover SUV produced by the Japanese automobile manufacturer Nissan. It made its debut in October 2007 for the 2008 model year. Beginning in 2013 for the 2014 model year, the model has been merged with the X-Trail sold outside the North American market, making them identical. It is currently Nissan's best-selling vehicle in the United States.

As of 2023, the Rogue was manufactured at the Nissan Smyrna Assembly Plant in Tennessee, United States and at the Nissan Motor Kyushu plant in Kanda, Fukuoka, Japan. Between August 2014 and March 2020, it was also built at the Renault Samsung Motors plant in Busan, South Korea under contract.

First generation (S35; 2007)

The first-generation Rogue made its debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit on 7 January 2007. It replaces the Nissan X-Trail in Canada as Nissan's entry-level SUV and the body-on-frame Nissan Xterra in Mexico due to the Smyrna plant freeing capacity for the Suzuki Equator, although the Xterra continued on sale in the United States and Canada through 2015 after being withdrawn from the Mexican market after the 2008 model year.

The first-generation Rogue was available in three trim levels in the United States: S, SV and SL, available with front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,UNKNOWN OR OTHER PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2024-01-14
  • VIN: JN1BJ1BV5MW
  • Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,UNKNOWN OR OTHER
  • Summary: UNKNOWN I fell victim to a wiretapping incident that is still under Federal investigation that began in my vehicle on June 23rd, 2023. This concern is in regard to life safety and loss of control of the vehicle on or around the same time, due to radio transmission feedback beeping coming from the passenger side speaker, as well as what sounded like an emergency response unit radio. The noise would not stop until I pulled the plug on the battery of the car as well as the fuse panel to the head unit. While driving the vehicle in Converse TX around August 1st, 2023, I noticed the speedometer locking at a higher than average speed for the area I was in, like it would go into cruise control automatically, without my consent. I then hit the brake to slow it down, but the speedometer locked again and would read what I believed to be 5mph over the speed limit, but I could hear the engine revving and feel myself speeding up. I parked the car and pulled the majority of the fuse panel after this event, barely used it, reset the firmware version on the head unit and do not have this issue today. I reported this to Nissan twice in person, once on the phone and twice in writing. Nissan refuses to look into it until I pay for them to plug up their equipment to determine what happened and that there is nothing wrong since there is not yet a recall leading to my event.
2023-12-22

UNKNOWN OR OTHER PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2023-10-01
  • VIN: JN1BJ1AV7MW
  • Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
  • Summary: The actuators on the doors are failing, so the door locks are unreliable. I paid to have the front passenger door's actuator replaced at a cost to me of almost $700. Now I am having the same issue with the driver's side actuator, which means another $700 repair. I worry that the same thing will happen to the two back doors. To me, this is a quality issue. The car is barely 3 years old (i purchased it in August 2020). If I don't spend the money to get this fixed, I run the risk of getting carjacked or the car broken into. I have tried and failed to get any kind of resolution from Nissan consumer affairs - they keep using stall tactics rather than being straightforward. I am also unhappy with the resolution of the jackknife key recall. They did the bare minimum to resolve this issue and now I have a key that is forced to stay in the open position at all times. The key is now over 4" long. It's also sharp and I've lost count of how many times I've stabbed my leg and put holes in my pants pockets.
2023-11-09

UNKNOWN OR OTHER PROBLEM

  • Date Of Incident: 2023-06-25
  • VIN: JN1BJ1BV5MW
  • Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
  • Summary: I went through a recent DDoS attack by a neighbor where they used signal boosting to spoof my key fob. From there, they were able to access the Intelligent Drive System, GPS and audio. On June 25th, the same criminals tracked me down through the GPS outside of Marshall TX and attmpted to hijack the vehicle. I had to call 911 and run for safety, it was terrifying. The entire day I could hear interference over the radio, this remained an issue for weeks. I took it to a Nissan Dealer to show them the mass amount of Malware that was installed, but was told I could just buy another car instead. To make matters worse, at one point in time, this group that hacked the vehicle, was able to alter my speed remotely. It is impossible to have anyone at Nissan take me seriously on this matter, yet you can see online that this is a known concern for this model specifically. I believe it is pertinent that Nissan review boot loader settings on these vehicles for a known fatal flaw that leaves the user vulnerable to these types of attacks, this could have caused me to crash several times and is downright scary that anyone with a little background could penetrate these systems so easily.

  • Components: STEERING,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,LANE DEPARTURE
  • Summary: Unknown, this is what I remember, As I was traveling on this highway I pushed the lane correcting button on because it was raining and I don't like being out in the rain. I had put on my Cruse control and after about halfway to the exit I turned the Cruse control off so that the vehicle could slow down and I could cost to the exit however out of nowhere my steering wheel starts pulling to the left so I tried to turn it back to align with the back of my truck and the steering wheel was stuck it would not move so, I braced myself for impact. I am still scared. No one will help me and the vehicle is available for request if need be. I really could have been killed and someone else too if they had been near me at the time of the accident. The guard rails saved me from going into the opposite side of traffic on the highway. Because of what I was doing no one will help me. So I don't know what to do now. There were no warning signs before the accident however I did have an oil change and my tires rotated 3 weeks before my accident. Everything happened on the day of my accident. No 1 will look at it. My insurance will not cover me so they will not help and the people I was driving for are basically not responsible and now I am out of my vehicle and I need it inspected but no 1 will help me.

  • Components: STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE
  • Summary: The steering wheel and brake peddle locked (unable to steer or pump brakes) causing me to lose control of the car. I ended up sideswiping a tree and rear-ending a parked pickup truck, totaling my car. This malfunction was an ongoing issue that I initially reported to the dealership which the car came from and also after occurring 2 additional times (with video evidence). The dealership stated that because they were unable to duplicate the malfunction, they could not fix the problem and due to my state's Lemon Law, Nissan Corporate could not get involved until the same malfunction occurred for a 4th time. This exact malfunction (unable to steer or pump brakes) had only occurred while the car was in reverse but unfortunately for me, the 4th occurrence happened while the car was in drive. My son and I are VERY fortunate to have walked away from this very avoidable accident with minor injuries, although the trauma will be there for a while.

  • VIN: Jn1bj1av5mw

  • Summary: I have a 2021 Nissan Rogue in the collision shop (highly reputable corporation) for rear door scratch repair. When customer dropped off stated that her front door would not open from inside or outside. It only had 702 miles on it and still with the drive out tag. Once the door was able to get open after having to remove trim panels and such, noticed that the front drivers door release cable was too long and kept popping out of the handle base on door. Pulled the entire lock assembly and base out and works just fine, because there’s no pressure on the cable. Once installed back into vehicle, after 3 or 5 handle pulls, the handle would not unlock anymore once again. Noticed again that the release cable popped out once again out of the base. After repeating the whole process 3 times with the same result, I am now writing this concern. It would be devastating if a actual accident did occur and the cable popped off again and customer couldn’t escape out of her vehicle

Negative 2021 Nissan Rogue sport car reviews

  1. Joel Raynor 2024-11-23

    I test drove the Rogue Sport and found the acceleration and overall ride to be underwhelming. However, I ultimately decided to purchase the Rogue Platinum, which I find to be a much more enjoyable ride.

  2. Edmond Schaefer 2024-07-09

    I recently test drove the SV trim and unfortunately, it did not feel like a new car. It felt more like a beat-up rental from Hertz. However, the car does have a good engine and a great cargo area. Despite this, I have decided to go back to the RAV 4, which I consider to be the A-1 steak sauce of SUVs. I encourage you to test drive both and make your own decision, as some reviews may be biased towards a certain brand. Thank you for considering my experience.

Positive 2021 Nissan Rogue sport car reviews

  1. Chaz O'Reilly 2025-01-07

    I serve tech and visit around 10 customer homes a day, driving about 1500 miles a week in my SUV. It's only 2 months old and has about 11000 miles on it. I get 27 miles per gallon in the city and local areas, but I drive pretty hard and sometimes go up to 95 mph when I'm running late. The handling is great, and although all CVTs are slow to pick up, once you pass 20 mph, there's no problem. My last 2020 Sentra went up to 200000 miles without any issues, but I maintain it well. I live in an area with snow, so I put snow tires on and go all over without any problems thanks to the AWD.

  2. Gonzalo Kemmer 2024-11-20

    Hey there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to let you know that the car you're interested in has a really smooth ride and handles great in the snow, even with the stock tires. Let me know if you have any other questions!

  3. Darron Runolfsson 2024-11-02

    Runs smoothly with great alerts and tank fills easily with regular gas. Yay!

  4. Brice Greenholt 2024-09-19

    I'm glad to hear that you haven't had any issues with your car. It's great to know that the salesperson at Auto Nation Nissan Miami has been very responsive whenever you have questions about repairing some cosmetic issues or getting a second key for your car.

  5. Jovan Schowalter 2024-09-01

    Looks great, drives even better, and averages 33 miles per gallon. It's an extremely dependable car!
