“After a very cold day in tennessee, the front drivers side and passengers side doors in my Nissan Rogue would no longer open from the outside. After visiting the Nissan dealership, I was told that this was not a safety issue and that the bracket and the cable actuator in both doors had gone bad and that the cost for the repair would be over $1,000. The fact that this is not considered a safety hazard and that Nissan is not standing behind its product is appalling. …”
NHTSA complaint #10577055, filed 2014-04, 64,000 miles“Driver and front passenger doors fail to open from the outside of the vehicle. I have to open back passenger door and manually engage the driver door lock from the inside. Took car to dealer and dealer stated that the charge to fix both doors would be $650. I do not understand how this can not be a safety issue that should be addressed by Nissan and our government. I guess when it comes time to purchase another vehicle I will not visit a Nissan nor infinity dealership. Nissan should be ashamed!”
NHTSA complaint #10572841, filed 2014-03, 56,000 miles“Both drivers door and front passenger door locks not working. They are not unlocking with remote or key. The remote opens the rear doors only, then you have to climb in and reach the inside front latch to open the door. Then get out the vehicle and enter thru the front door. Nissan had or has recall on the 2008 rouge for the same problem. Why not on the 2009 Rogue? I goggled my problem with the vehicle and found thousands of people with the same problem. We need a recall on the 2009 as well. Thanks for listening.”
NHTSA complaint #10559444, filed 2014-01, 79,000 miles“I own a 2009 Nissan Rogue with 44,000 miles on it. About 3 weeks ago my driver's seat wouldn't open from the outside, and about a week ago the same thing happened with the passenger seat. I am now obligated to enter my car through the back seat. I did my research and found that this has been happening to many rogues and there are even recalls on some model years (except for mine of course). The service department at the hudson Nissan on route 440 in jersey city, nj want to charge me $130.00 just to take the door apart to see what the issue is. Needless to say I did not agree with the price. …”
NHTSA complaint #10559017, filed 2014-01, 44,000 miles“Recall -harness connector (torque converted solenoid circuit intermittent) previous recall wasn't completed properly as I continue to experience intermittent erratic behavior of the power train and related circuitry, two weeks after the manufacturer said they fixed the harness connector inspect and replace recall (Rogue connect) that was place on the car. The car jerks uncontrollably when driving at high speed on the highway or hesitates at stop then takes off suddenly at high speed. …”
