Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“When I apply the brakes, the car sometimes just shuts down completely and turns off. I have been able to then put the car in park, and restart it. It has happened when I have slowed the car down to go over speed bumps, when I stopped at a stop sign or red light. It also happened on a highway on-ramp. Nissan has not been able to fix it.”

“I took the car to the dealership I purchased the car from because there were winning noises coming from the left side in the engine/transmission compartment. In addition to cut and unsealed wires under the dash and in the fuse box, as well as a stuck caliper (that they replaced for my convenience according to the service manager). The car has been in the dealer for a total of 2 weeks in the 1 month I have own the car and they have only fixed the caliper. …”

“Vancouver, canada on september 30, 2010 the brakes on my 2010 Nissan Rogue failed to engage at low speed and resulted in an accident. Before the accident, I noticed sporadic brake failure a couple of times. The car was purchased new from the dealer on april 10, 2010.”

NHTSA complaint #10359350, filed 2010-10, 3,000 miles

“Significant vibration in steering wheel when brakes are applied at high speed. Wobbling and car shakes.. Brought the car in for service and was told that both the front and back rotors had to be resufaced. The car only has 24,000 miles, so we are concerned that such a relatively low mileage car had this problem. After servicing the car, the problem still exists, but has been reduced. We note that Nissan has had many recalls for rotor problems, but on other models. We feel the Rogue needs to be examined as well.”
