On 9/29/2026, my 2025 Nissan Rogue was parked in the parking garage at my workplace. When I left for the day and arrived at my vehicle, I noticed shattered glass on the ground behind it. I immediately went to the building security office to report the incident. Security reviewed the camera footage and identified a three‑minute window in which the damage occurred. No individuals or vehicles were near my car at the time of the spontaneous rear‑window failure.

It was a beautiful day between 68-75 degrees. Got into my Rouge around 145p and when I shut my door the entire back window just shattered. I’m calling the manufacture tomorrow as there are many complaints on the internet as well as a possible class action lawsuit.

POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM — Filed 10/05/2026

Failed Components: Engine valvetrain, powertrain/transmission, and electronic throttle control, directly linked to open federal safety recalls NHTSA 26V-080 and 26V-081. Safety Risk: The vehicle was sold CPO by Downey Nissan with unaddressed safety recalls. It suffers from severe engine vibration, a sharp mechanical valvetrain ticking noise, a persistent burning odor, and catastrophic transmission gear slippage that abruptly drops out of gear and slams back into drive mid-turn, creating an extreme collision hazard in traffic.

Vehicle: 2025 Nissan Rogue (1.5L 3-Cylinder VC-Turbo Engine) Approximate Mileage: about 23,600 miles Failure Date: September 25, 2026 Incident Description: While operating my vehicle on September 24, the cabin climate control system suddenly stopped producing heat and began blowing exclusively cool air. The following day, while accelerating onto the freeway to merge into high-speed active traffic, a massive column of thick white smoke violently billowed out from the vehicle exhaust so thick I could not see vehicles around me. Concurrently, the engine temperature gauge spiked aggressively into the extreme hot/danger zone before erratically fluctuating back toward the normal range. Immediately following the temperature spike, the vehicle lost reliable acceleration, began severely lunging, jerking, and lost normal throttle response. The dashboard illuminated multiple critical malfunction alerts, specifically identifying a failure in the Emission Control System and the automatic Start-Stop system warning. Safety Risk Statement: The sudden powertrain failure and severe engine lunging occurred at highway speeds (65-70 mph) on a major freeway I-35, resulting in an immediate and hazardous drop in speed. As the vehicle slowed down rapidly in active traffic, I was forced to maneuver a failing vehicle across two active lanes of high-speed traffic and cut directly across a freeway on-ramp with a failing throttle to reach the safety of the shoulder, where I awaited a tow truck. This defect presents an immediate, catastrophic collision hazard. The manufacturer has expanding recalls on this specific VC-Turbo engine family, but claims my specific VIN is not currently covered. There were no warning indicators prior to the failure. Elevated Nissan in Merriam Kansas has the vehicle and is evaluating it.

The vehicle also lost power when accelerating, RPM would go high but vehicle wouldn’t go any faster. Engine light came on. Had it scanned codes P0196 (engine oil temperature sensor ‘A’ range/performance) & P0507 (idle control system RPM-higher than expected). Fuel consumption goes fast.

Back windshield spontaneously shattered. About 10 minutes after the car was parked a coworker heard a loud bang and noticed pieces of the window falling off of the car.

While driving the steering wheel pulled to the left then shook a little after. Then it kind of pulled to the right. I kept driving and later in afternoon received email from Nissan that my Electronic Power Steering System may not be functioning properly. They recommended to have it serviced asap. Same drive, a car pulled in front of me and I did not get a verbal or audible warning regarding a possible front collision. My ADAS was repaired in August. While cars stopped at red light, I came up on a stopped vehicle purposefully and got very close. No warning again with a system that was repaired last month. No braking either.

SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE — Filed 05/04/2026

Vehicle could not brake. The abs brakes did not function and forward collission warning did not go on causing a collission with another car that cut in front of car. This caused collission, airbags to deploy and car is totaled. Driver and passenger were injured due to crash and air bag deployment. On the day of crash I received a warning in my app requesting I have my abs checked at dealer because abs brakes might not function properly from Nissan.

The front camera and sensors are constantly popping up that they are disabled. The front sensor failed to indicate warning and failed emergency brake. Car should have stopped but I stead it hit the car in front. Sensors, and other electrical services are constantly disabling themselves, or failing to work. What is the point of safety features if they constantly fail.

The automatic liftgate will close on you when you’re not expecting it. This is caused us to hit our head, at least three times while trying to remove items from the back of the Nissan Rogue. On the most recent incident resulted in a concussion. As I was putting a suitcase into the back of the car, it began to shut, causing me to hit the top of my head and blackout.

I was using the snow mode because there was a little bit of snow and ice on the road. I had been driving it that morning and did not have a problem until I turned in to my street. I turned right and the steering and brakes and accelerator all locked, leaving me where my car slid across the road and the left drivers side tire ran over the curb. I was not able to correct anything as everything locked. Even though I am okay and was going less than 5 mph while turning. I feel like the whole car's function to lock is unsafe as it left me to hope the curb would stop it. The car had to get towed and is now in the shop with $4,000 of damage to that tire and tire rods which I feel like could not have been prevented considering everything was locked and did not allow me to correct properly.

On November 17, my 2025 Nissan Rogue caught fire after my hour commute to work. During my commute, there were no warning signs on the dash for the entire duration. Got to the office, parked the vehicle, and within a few minutes a coworker called me to let me know the car was up in flames. The fire quickly intensified and got hot enough to melt the hood, and made its way into the interior after it shattered the windshield. The fire started in the engine compartment, near the battery. The insurance company has a fire investigator attempting to determine the cause of the fire. The car had approximately 12,000 miles.

SEATS — Filed 11/10/2025

The driver seat in the 2025 Nissan Rogue is extremely narrow and places excessive pressure on my left hip, causing bruising, severe discomfort, and lower back pain after short driving periods. The seat forces my body into an unnatural posture that affects my ability to sit upright and operate the vehicle safely. After I reported the issue to the dealership, I was told to “keep driving until the seat flattens out” or “have a heavy-set person sit in the seat,” which are not safe or reasonable solutions. The seat design is causing physical injury and makes safe driving difficult.
