2020 Nissan Rogue Sport S AWD - The entire car unexpectedly shut down (I.E.: Exactly as if the car was completely off) while driving on two separate occasions, almost causing massive accidents and potential severe injury and/or death for everyone affected. Fortunately, I immediately reacted to get on a shoulder lane and allow the car to slow down, even though the car had no power steering, breaks that malfunctioned, and an electrical system/lights that completely went dead. This is all due to the JackKnife Key recall, which was not properly disclosed by the dealership, and which Nissan refuses to properly address and fix the matter even while acknowledging that an accident could have caused severe bodily injury and/or death. Also, the recall permanent fix is negligent due to the fact that the key fob would have a plastic spacer that would require key fob to have the key out in the open position at all times. The issue is that the key fob was never engineered to be in an open position at all times, so it would most likely break fast. This would require the consumer to now pay thousands of dollars to have a a new key fob made and to replace the affected areas of the key slot. Nissan should be responsible for finding a permanent fix, which should be to replace all affected parts with new ones, instead of inserting a cheap plastic spacer in the key fob which would require it to stay erect 24/7 all in the name of profits. The lives of our family members, kids, loved ones, and anyone affected are more important than Nissan's cheap fix (a cheap plastic spacer that probably costs less than $0.99 to produce, all in the name of increased profits and decreased costs by finding the most unsafest and cheapest solution possible. What if the spacer breaks, since the key will get destroyed being erect 24/7 in someone's pocket all day, and this happens again! Nissan should be mandated to either replace all affected parts with completely new parts or buy the car back above value.

About 50 miles in during a road trip, cvt transmission failed. Sluggish when accelerating, would not accelerate past 40 mph. Gear would not release to reverse or put into park to shut the vehicle off. Had to find an open field in order to turn around and drive back home due to not being able to reverse. Proceeded back with flashers on at a low rate of speed. When I reached home, I pushed the button to power off the vehicle, it gave a warning that it must be in park first but I was able to put the gear in park at this point. During the time of the incident and returning home, there was no warnings present on the dash. If I had been on the highway at 75 mph during this incident it might have been catastrophic! I called the Nissan dealership and was told to bring the vehicle in on Monday. It is still under warranty and just hit 50,000 miles. Upon researching, this seems to be a known issue with rogues of certain years, mine included in 2020, with Nissan.

Cooling fan stopped working. I was told by the Nissan dealership this is a big issue with this specific vehicle and that it-??s hard to get the part because this is always an issue. No messages appeared. My AC stopped working and I took it to the dealership were they said if I drive with the cooling fan broken it will explode. How is this not a recall? This has been reproduced by ALL Nissan dealerships and the Nissan dealership is who told me this and diagnosed my car.

Vehicle has 61k miles and the a/c began blowing cold and hot intermittently as the car was idle but no engine lights were coming on. 5 days later a mechanic was able to look at vehicle and discovered the one fan responsible for entire car wasn-??t not coming on and it was only the air being pushed into the front of vehicle by having it in motion that was turning the fan thus making the vehicle blow cold air when in motion and keeping the engine cooled. No warning lights were coming on and staying
