I was driving my car turning into driveway and the car suddenly shut off mid way. Second incident happened the following day. Turning into a driveway and the car shut off. Both times I put the car in park and pressed the start button and it started right up. Monthly prior during the winter the car shut off in very cold weather while coming to a rolling stop at red lights. This happened about a dozen times. I took to personal mechanic, they said they could not find anything wrong. He said let the car warm up more before driving. When I did so it did not shut off as often, but still did occur.

My vehicle has stalled twice now while I am driving. The dash lights all turn off and the car just stops going. Once it stops, I can-€™t start the car unless I physically remove the key, put it in park and start the car again

My car overheated. when I took it to my mechanic, he let me know my cooling fan assembly needs to be replaced, there is not a single cooling fan assembly for a 2017 Nissan rogue sport SL available in the continental US. Nissan has no idea when they will have the part available again, and neither do any of the aftermarket vendors such as AutoZone. This leads me to think that every single rogue in the country has had a problem with the cooling fan. I understand supply chain issues, but this is ridiculous.

When I accelerated after being at a complete stop, my vehicle would not move at first. The RPMs shot up, but no movement. I was at a busy intersection and the situation was bothersome but there was no accident. I very slowly pressed the gas pedal again and the vehicle went forward. This is not the first time this has happened. Current mileage is 89,600. This type of problem began around 75,000 miles but has not been a weekly occurrence. This has not been confirmed by a dealer nor inspected. No warning lights came on. There has been hesitation in acceleration for about 2 months but I thought it was possibly bad fuel. There are times the RPMs will greatly increase without speed increasing.

My car had less the 30,000 mi on it. It 28,700mi at the time of incident. I bought it brand new in 2018. So this year my warranty expired in April 2021. In June my cooling fan went out and I had no a/c plus the car was not drivable due to it overheating. I-€™m in Idaho we were have 100-110 degree days here. I had no car for a month and a half because I was told that they don-€™t make the cooling fans anymore and the dealership couldn-€™t get ahold of one for that period of time. Meanwhile I lost my job we don-€™t have busses and I couldn-€™t get rides or afford ubers/ taxis everyday several times a day. It was awful. I know this issue has to be known to Nissan. Shouldn-€™t there have been a safety recall by now"!" Also at the exact same time as the cooling fan went out the fuel pump went out too! Now mind you this car was brand new is three years old with less then 30,000mi on it. So the warranty had expired three months prior they can-€™t get the part to replace it for 1 1/2months so I have no car during that time loose my job and have to foot the bill for replacing both the cooling fan and the fuel pump. Okay I believe this make, model, and year NEEDS to have a mandatory safety recall ASAP. For goodness sake look at how many people have had to replace their cooling fans on their car! That-€™s not OKAY. I Demand that something be done to fix this BEFORE someone-€™s car catches fire and someone ends up dying!

On June 30, 2021 my Nissan Rogue was operating normally. My husband and I stopped at a store and I ran in while he stayed in the car. After about 10 minutes or so my husband came into the store to tell me my vehicle had started smoking, so he shut it off. It did not want to start again. After waiting 30 minutes the vehicle started and there were no problems, but I wanted to drive the car to my dealership just to check. While at the dealership, the vehicle began smoking out of the engine again, and now liquid was dripping onto the floor. It is my understanding that it got so hot in the engine that my washer fluid reservoir melted and that was the liquid dripping onto the ground. After having the vehicle towed to another repair shop, they advised me that I need a replacement cooling fan, but that part is not available in the United States at the moment. It has now been over a month and there is no update on when the part might be available, and neither my dealership nor repair shop nor Nissan will provide me with a working vehicle while mine is out. The engine could have caught on fire, endangering my husband and I and anyone driving near us. We were told Nissan is aware of this issue and isn't doing anything about it. There were no warning lamps prior to this happening. Several months prior the vehicle was in the repair shop for the A/C not working properly, a sound coming from my A/C blower, and the bluetooth not working properly.

The cooling fan supposedly has failed.The car is certified preowned, but of course this component is not covered.The car has been towed to Middletown Nissan in NY.We have been told the fan is on back order and they have had the car for three weeks now.My issue is they tell me there is Three other vehicles ahead of ours also waiting on a fan.when I inquired with another Nissan dealer(Thruway Nissan) about the price of the fan ($420)I was told that it would be on back order and there was 3 other cars ahead of mine waiting on these fans.This car has 35,000 miles on it.It seems awefully suspicious that 7 cars only 4 years old had these fans fail within a 40 mile radius.Should'nt someone question if this should be investigated for a recall?This was quoted as an $880 job.

The check engine light came on out of nowhere. Took it to the auto zone and Nissan dealership. States the engine is over heating and needs a cooling compartment. However the cooling compartment is on national back order

My vehicle would be working and running fine for a little bit but after driving it for a while, my A/C would stop blowing cool air. It would be blowing cool air at first and then start blowing hot air and then my car would start to overheat afterwards. I mostly have this problem when my car is stopped for a while or not going above 40 mph. I went to the Nissan dealership to get it checked out and they said the problem was the cooling fan. My car is practically brand new. I bought it brand new in February of 2018. In order to get the cooling fan for my car, I have to wait 2-3 weeks for it to come in because they don't even have it. I went to a mechanic in my city and there was a guy with the same year, make and model car as mine and he had the exact same problem as I did. It turns out that he went to the dealership as well and bought the last cooling fan from them there's no way that this person can coincidentally have the same exact car with the same exact problem in the same exact city. Therefore I'm filing this complaint because I'm obviously not the only one having this issue. My car running and working is a necessity for me for I have kids and have to go to work so I'm hoping this issue can be resolved as soon as possible. Thank you.
