New Car Assessment Program

The 2022NISSANROGUE carries 310 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 13 crashes, 0 fires, 3 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall 5/5 rating, with 4/5 front crash, 5/5 side crash, and 4/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.

Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2022 ROGUE is engine with 97 filings, followed by fuel/propulsion system (38) and engine and engine cooling (36). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 6 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.

NHTSA currently has 54 investigation files overlapping the 2022 ROGUE, and 5 remain open. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

20260215ENGINE

While driving on the freeway, the car started to feel like it was requiring more pressure on the gas. Heading to an exit ramp, as more gas that was pressed, white smoke suddenly started to come out of the exhaust and even into the passenger compartment (presumably from the engine) and just as it neared an exit ramp , the car lost all power... incredibly dangerous with other cars beginning to line up behind the car. Then the gear shift could not go into neutral so the car could be pushed to a safe location. When the Auto Club associate arrived, he was able to get the car in neutral and tow it to the local Nissan dealer (Van Nuys, CA).

There is an open recall for this car model for many months now. I received official notices of the recall. However when I took the car to the Nissan dealership to be serviced, they stated the manufacturer had not provided them with a fix for this engine problem recall and they were unable to address the issue. The car therefore is still being driven for me and my family without the engine problem being fixed or addressed.

Incident Summary: On February 14, 2026, at an automatic conveyor car wash, my Nissan vehicle would not shift into neutral while in motion on the conveyor belt. It stayed in drive/reverse, creating a hazard as it could resist conveyor movement or cause unintended acceleration/reverse. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Transmission shifter/gear selection system (likely electronic shift-by-wire or CVT controls) prevented shift to neutral while vehicle was in low-speed motion. This seems due to a software safety interlock blocking neutral during movement, similar to reported Nissan issues (e.g., Rogue/Pathfinder/Ariya models requiring hold procedures or "neutral hold mode"). Vehicle available for inspection and in my possession, Knoxville TN). How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Inability to shift to neutral prevented free rolling on conveyor, risking resistance, jerky movement, hopping off track, collis

My Rogue had an engine failure in 2024. This caused the car not slow down and not accelerate on highway and could have caused an accident. Entire engine and turbo and replaced at 71276 miles. In 2025 another incident happened where the car lost power on the interstate in left lane, I had to move my car to right side of road in busy traffic. This could have also been a major accident, and put my family at risk. I left the car at another dealer as I was on vacation. This time the EGR valve, EGR sensor had to be replaced as well as all catalytic converters at 97018 and 97282 miles I received the recall notice after all of this in the mail about the engine recall on this Rogue and Nissan is failing to reimburse me for any of the repairs for the engine and other parts replacement. They are saying that the repairs are not related to the recall. I have heard from my dealer and other sources that several of these Rogue engines are failing similar to what mine did.

They said the vehicle transmission mount is leaking and need to be replaced as it is causing a vibration. The vehicle is only 53,000 Miles. The vehicle went there for a recall on the engine and i guess if this is not a result of the defect on the engine. I called to get more info and the technician stated that multiple vehicle came in with the same failure. That's why i am reporting the issue to have it investigated and find out if it is from Nissan. The pricing is $1190.41.

I am writing to formally report a serious and ongoing concern regarding the condition and safety of my Nissan vehicle. On 08 January 2026, during a routine oil change, the technician discovered a turbocharger leak after removing the plastic plate covering the oil pan. I immediately notified my local Nissan dealership and scheduled an inspection for 12 January 2026. This issue is especially alarming given the vehicle’s history. My car is less than five years old with only 30,500 miles, yet it has already undergone a complete engine replacement (2024) due to the first recall for engine bearing failure. Additionally, a second engine-related recall was issued on 12 December 2025. Now, with the discovery of a turbo leak, it is evident that the vehicle continues to exhibit significant defects. Based on these repeated and severe powertrain failures, I believe Nissan sold me a defective vehicle that remains in a defective and unreliable condition. I am requesting immediate attention, a tho

20260108STEERING

On the left side of the steering wheel there is a group of Settings buttons with a pressure sensitive dial, called the OK button, that controls which menu you choose. The button no longer allows me to select a menu option because the depression sensor does not spring back. For instance, if I want to adjust the driver assistance options, I need use the OK button to scroll through the options to find the setting I want, then depress the OK button to select it. However, the OK button sticks with the slightest pressure instead of scrolling. This makes it impossible to change or adjust any of the safety features and there is no other option to manually adjust them. I am unable to turn on the blind spot warning and lane departure warning. I was trying to adjust the auto light settings, but I could not scroll to the correct option. My lights were stuck in the "OFF" mode which makes driving very dangerous.

A whole lot of mess! I recently bought my 2022 nissan rogue in May of 2025. We took it to the regular oil change and check ups and nothing concerning came up. We got mail for a recall and I brought it in and the Nissan dealership in Elk Grove, Ca turned us down and said "it was not in their system yet." So, took it again and still the same answer. Well in November before thanksgiving, we started the car and white chemical smell of smoke came out which was the coolant. We towed it to our own mechanic because these dealerships will screw you. Now it's been a whole month that our car has been sitting at the mechanics. Engine was torn apart, everything was all broken and needed to be replaced. My mechanic called the dealership and said they will not pay for it even if it was their issue. Now I'm trying to get my warranty to pay for it since I purchased it. I will not be paying the $10,000 to get that vehicle fixed. I will be seeking an attorney for this lemon car.
