2023 Nissan Rogue problems
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for the Suzuki Equator, although the Xterra continued on sale in the United States and Canada through 2015 after being withdrawn from the Mexican market after the 2008 model year.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.

Common 2023 Nissan Rogue problems
The 2023 Nissan Rogue has been reported to have several common problems based on complaints from owners. These issues include engine failures, brake malfunctions, and airbag problems, which pose serious safety risks and leave owners feeling frustrated and helpless.
One of the most common problems reported is sudden engine failures, often accompanied by complete loss of power while driving. This terrifying experience puts not only the driver but also other road users at risk, especially on highways.
Another concern is faulty communication between the engine and pedal, leading to acceleration failures. This issue leaves drivers vulnerable and without control in crucial situations, increasing the risk of accidents.
Shift lever malfunctions have also been reported, causing uncertainty and the potential for unintended gear changes. This can compromise driving stability and increase the risk of accidents.
Complete brake failure has been documented by owners, leading to collisions and injuries. This is a serious safety hazard that should never be ignored.
Airbag non-deployment is another issue that has left occupants exposed to potential harm during significant impacts. This is simply unacceptable and poses a significant safety risk.
These problems are in addition to gas smell and air conditioning issues that have been previously discussed.

- VIN: 5N1BT3BAXPC
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: My back window exploded. I was just driving and the whole thing shattered. Thought I was shot with a gun but after the cops came they checked my car and found out this exploding window is common with the newer Nissan Rogues. I have the incident on dash cam too. I now have to pay $500 for my deductible to fix the window since Nissan won’t take responsibility. My car is being repaired tomorrow. I do have a police report number but I can’t move onto the next page without the report so I’m stating “no” but the answer is “yes”.
POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-23
- VIN: 5N1BT3BAXPC
- Components: POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE
- Summary: Major engine problems. The engine has loud knocking noise. While driving the car it shakes badly. When the hood is open you can see the engine jumping and it’s not properly secured. The engine can fall out causing a safety hazard and accident. Vehicle is not safe to drive. When driving the car loses speed immediately going over 55 mph.
ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-13
- VIN: JN8BT3DD9PW
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: Our 2023 Nissan Rogue with only 15,000 miles suffered complete engine failure (engine seized) driving on busy [XXX] passing through Baltimore. The safety of myself and my family was put at risk, and if we hadn't been in the left lane (allowing rapid access to the breakdown lane) we would have been in a multi-car pile-up going at high speeds. Afterward, my safety was at risk waiting for 5h on the busy highway waiting for a tow truck. There was a slightly rough engine sound just 15-30 minutes prior to the engine seizure, but no warning messages. The only message that appeared was "Engine Failure" at the moment the engine seized. The car was towed to the local Firestone Service station where they confirmed engine seizure with normal oil levels. We do not know if the oil had been compromised by infusion of gasoline (as we have now discovered is a problem with the Nissan Rogue engine). The car was subsequently towed to Bob Bell Nissan in Baltimore, and they have yet to inform us of their conclusions after 5 days. Route 9 Nissan in Westborough (where we bought the care) did not inform us that this was a potential problem nor that it is under investigation by the NHTSA.

They are willing to fix the roof rack seals but not replace the headliner. This has caused an unhealthy musty smell in the cabin and a big stain on the headliner and A-Pillars. Nissan corporate will not cover the cost of a new headliner and A-Pillars but can’t guarantee a stain free headliner to pre-stain condition

POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-21
- VIN: 5N1BT3BB4PC
- Components: POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE
- Summary: At 8:00 PM, driving 70 MPH on [XXX] from Dallas to Houston, Texas, multiple warning lights and messages illuminated on the dash. Other than a low fuel warning, there were no other warnings or messages at the time of the incident. The warnings and messages displayed were "AWD Error", AEB system OFF, RAB system OFF, slip indicator or VDC OFF, master warning light, and "Engine Malfunction Power reduced Service now." When this occurred, the vehicle began decelerating, and I was unable to accelerate and return to highway speeds. I was driving in the left lane and had to make my way to the shoulder on the right of the highway. Fortunately, I came to a stop approximately two miles from the [XXX] exit for Centerville, Texas. It would have been extremely dangerous to remain on the shoulder, especially after sunset, so after reading the owner's manual, I decided to travel the shoulder at the very reduced speed my vehicle allowed. After exiting to a safe location and refueling, I called 24/7 Nissan roadside assistance at 8:50 PM. I was told a tow truck would arrive around 10:20 PM, and I would receive text messages with status updates. I called three more times, at 9:32, 11:28, and 11:54 PM. I never received a text message because no towing providers were ever located and dispatched to my location. On the final call at 11:54, I was told they would try again at 8:00 AM. Centerville, Texas is a small town with a population under 1,000 people. I was left stranded nearly 150 miles from home in a non-major metropolitan city without ample resources such as uber to take me to the nearest hotel. Furthermore, had I not called back, no one from Nissan was going to inform me that I would not receive a tow.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-05
- VIN: 5N1BT3AB6PC
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE
- Summary: While I was driving out of state on [XXX], 2024, the engine light came on and stated "engine malfunction power reduced." Immediately the acceleration to the car was out. I was barely able to go 50 or 60 mph on the highway where everyone else was going 70 or 80 mph. Additionally the AWD light came on saying it was disabled as well. We were able to make it to safety, get a rental car, and then take my car to the nearest Nissan dealership in LaCrosse WI. I left my car there and waited to hear back about what was needed to repair the car. After talking to the service manager, Mike, he indicated he would talk to Nissan Corporate and let me know. Nissan Corporate advise the service team to clean the part in the car (the actuator?) and put it back in and that would fix it. This did not work because as I was driving back home to Mankato MN from LaCrosse WI, the same engine light came on while I was on the same highway going in 70 mph traffic. Again the car would barely go 50 to 60 mph, but we made it to a nearby gas station and called Nissan Roadside assistance. They towed my vehicle to the closest Nissan dealership in Rochester and it's been there since [XXX], 2024. Today's date is May 24, 2024. This dealership service shop has now replaced 3 parts (sensors?) and they were bringing my car back to me today Friday May 24, 2024. They were scheduled to arrive before 11:00am CST. At 11:42pm, I received a text from the service person I've been working with stating that: My car "had the issue again. We call Nissan and they told us to tow it back to our shop, as of right now stay in the rental but will be towed back today." I called the Rochester dealership around 2:00pm to see if they had any updates but they were still waiting for the car to get towed back and they had no other information. There were no other warning or error messages prior to this happening on [XXX], 2024. I've maintained regular maintenance on the car since purchasing the car from the dealer - Dec 2022 INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-12-22
- VIN: 5N1BT3BB2PC
- Components: ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: I can smell fuel inside my vehicle after my vehicle idles for 15-20 minutes. No visible leak on the ground, but fumes permeate my vehicle and have caused headaches to begin with my vehicle occupants and myself. I have noticed after driving and I park inside my garage, I can smell fuel as well, but no visible leak anywhere. The smell lasts for a good while after being parked, but eventually goes away. I made an appointment for December 22nd, 2023 to have it looked at, showed up Riverside Auto Mall of Marquette, MI and was turned away because if the vehicle isn't replicating what I am experiencing, they could not do anything about it because they don't know why its happening. I was told by the service manager to contact her if anyone began experiencing headaches. We did experience headaches at a later date this happened, had an appointment scheduled for April 1, 2024, and was called the same morning of the appointment to have it cancelled due to their "Nissan Technician" not being able to work on it since he was out of town. I was told I would receive a call back to reschedule, and to this day, May 20, 2024, I have not received a call. I have not made another appointment because I have a feeling I will be given the run around again, but I continue to smell fuel intermittently while idling. Not sure what else to do at this point because it is a leased vehicle.
Other/I am not sure PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-17
- VIN: 5N1BT3BB6PC
- Components: Other/I am not sure
- Summary: I am a CPST Instructor and was performing a car seat check. The choices offered for the model of child safety seat did not include the seat I'm checking. Specifically, the seat is a Graco TrioGrow SL, Model 2087507, Manufactured 07/19/2023. My issue is with the possibility of a missing part. This seat model name has SL at the end. In my experience, this indicates that the seat has a lock-off; the manufacturer refers to it as a SnugLoc. When I was examining the CSS, I noted that there was an oblong cavity in the back of the CSS and a metal bar at the top of the cavity, behind the seat pad. This would be the location of the lock-off for a forward-facing installation. My question is, is this seat missing that part and the stickers that indicate it's use? The contact stated he corresponded with Graco and found that the lock-off is not missing. The lock off was for rear facing and the lock-off has to be lifted/rotated to the forward-facing position.

Positive 2023 Nissan Rogue car reviews

UPDATE (06/01/23) We are absolutely loving our new Rogue! We have taken it on 3 long road trips and have not experienced any issues or alarms. We are so grateful that we have not had any problems with our new Rogue, despite hearing about some owners having issues. We have driven over 8000 miles and will soon be getting our 2nd oil change. The ride is nice and quiet, and we are getting GREAT gas mileage. At times, if the onboard computer is correct, we are getting over 37 mpg on the highway. This is our first NEW car since 1988, and we are thrilled with all the bells and whistles. With just over 2000 miles on it since we purchased it, we have no complaints so far. If we had to nitpick, it would be that the SV model does NOT come with a power lift gate. There is no button on the dashboard to open it from inside the car, nor is there one on the key fob. Nissan, this is your trunk (lift gate)!! Who doesn't provide an interior trunk (lift gate) release as standard? Come on!!!! Other than that, it is very comfortable, spacious and gets GREAT gas mileage. Most of our driving is on the highway, and we have been averaging around 35 miles per gallon. UPDATE: I am nearing 5000 miles and my 1st oil change. So far, we have had no problems with our new 2023 Nissan Rogue SV. We have not smelled any gas fumes nor have we had any electrical problems. We are so grateful to have read that some of you have had issues. We have taken our new car on two road trips (one for 2.5 hours one way and mostly highway) and (one for 4.5 hours and mostly highway). We had no issues, and the car has great acceleration for a 1.5L 3cyl Turbo engine.

Valve clatter under load. Rear camera sometimes quits. Slow to shift into drive. However, I'm glad to hear that you find the vehicle easy to drive and comfortable. The practical gauges and infotainment screen are also a plus. I also appreciate the two-level center console and the big windshield that provides a good view.
-
Smooth ride, roomy interior, and a lot of power for its class.
-
Hey there! I noticed that almost every function is electronically controlled, but I'm glad to hear that everything is going well so far. It's great to hear that you're getting close to 40 mpg with both highway and town driving!

I bought a 2023 Rogue SV in December 2023 with only 10 miles on it. Unfortunately, on September 8th, it broke down while my kids were on their way home from school. Thankfully, my son was able to pull over and they were only stranded for a short while until I could get to them. I had it towed directly to the dealership and they just called me on September 14th to inform me that I need a new engine. It's frustrating that this happened with less than 13k miles on it, but I'm glad that the tow, rental, and engine replacement are covered. Despite this setback, I still love my Rogue. I previously owned a Sentra for 4 years and never had any issues, but maybe this is just an SUV thing. The dealership was kind enough to provide me with a 2023 Rogue Platinum while my car is being repaired, and I must say, I'm enjoying it a lot.

Are you having problems with your 2023 Nissan Rogue?

I have encountered several issues with my 2023 Rogue. Firstly, the radio stopped working after just three days of use. Secondly, the USB connections have been completely damaged. Lastly, water is leaking into the car from the roof, despite the fact that I do not have a moonroof. My car has been in the shop for four months now, but Nissan has provided me with a rental car during this time. Despite my loyalty to the brand, I cannot recommend this car to others. This is my seventh Nissan, but it will be my last.

Our brand new Nissan Rogue 2023 had less than 1500 miles on it when I received a message on my phone indicating a potential issue with the emission control system. Unfortunately, this caused the engine light to come on, disabling features such as automatic start and cruise control. We immediately took the car to Nissan for servicing, where they informed us that the issue was with the censor and that there is currently no fix available. Despite the inconvenience, we remain confident in Nissan's ability to resolve this issue and are eagerly awaiting a solution. It is worth noting that we are not alone in experiencing this problem, as other consumers have reported similar issues. Nevertheless, we are confident that Nissan will take the necessary steps to address this issue and ensure customer satisfaction.

I really appreciate the style and ride of the car, but I have noticed that there is a gas smell in the cabin. Additionally, the mileage isn't the best and unfortunately, my steering wheel control is broken. I do miss my 2020 Rogue, but I'm hoping to find a solution and potentially trade in my 23 soon.

I purchased a 2023 Rouge in January and have driven it for 1560 miles. Unfortunately, the windows have stopped working on three separate occasions, but thankfully they started working again mysteriously. Today, I encountered two more mysteries. Firstly, the car wouldn't unlock with the remote or the exterior handle button, and I had to use the valet key to get in. Then, on the ride home, the dashboard lit up with a malfunction warning and beeped all the way home. I took it to the dealership, but they couldn't find any codes that would explain what happened. They advised me that if it happens again, I should not turn off the car and drive straight to the dealership, or the code will be lost. I hope this doesn't happen at 10:00 pm! Overall, it's been a bit of a frustrating experience, but I'm hopeful that the dealership will be able to resolve these issues soon.

Hello, I am sorry to hear about the trouble you had with your 2023 Platinum Rogue. It must have been a scary experience for you and your children. I understand your frustration with the dealership charging you for a loaner car and not providing the necessary parts to fix the malfunction. It's disappointing to hear that Nissan is not taking responsibility for their vehicles and their customers' safety. As a loyal Nissan customer since 2001, it's understandable that you expected better service. I hope that Nissan will take your concerns seriously and work to improve their processes. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
