2014 Nissan Rogue problems

“While driving on the interstate and exiting at normal speed, my 2014 Nissan Rogue suddenly lost all propulsion. The engine continued to rev, but the transmission stopped delivering power to the wheels. This happened in active traffic and created an immediate safety hazard, as vehicles behind me had no warning that my car would lose power. After stopping and restarting the engine, the vehicle regained limited movement, but the power no longer matched the RPMs. This indicates internal CVT slip and loss of hydraulic pressure. Shortly after, the check engine light appeared. A diagnostic scan showed a CVT stepper motor fault, a critical component that controls pulley ratio and belt pressure. When this part or the related hydraulic system fails, the transmission cannot maintain pressure, causing slipping, overheating, loss of acceleration, and potential total failure. Many 2014–2016 Rogue owners report the same symptoms: sudden loss of power, delayed engagement, high RPM with no acceleration, and overheating. Transmission specialists consistently point to recurring internal CVT defects, including stepper motor failure, valve body wear, pressure control solenoid…”

“While driving, I swerved slightly to avoid a dog and went into a shallow ditch less than one foot deep. There was no collision, no structural damage, and no repairs needed to the vehicle. Despite the extremely minor impact, both airbags deployed unexpectedly. This deployment was violent and occurred without a qualifying crash. I believe this indicates a faulty airbag sensor, airbag control module malfunction, or other defect in the airbag system.”

“NHTSA 22V-024, R21B90 Original case #11722884 Dealership, Stelly Nissan of Yorktown Heights, lied about the recall eligibility of my vehicle on March 5th, 2026. When I researched my own service records, 2014 Nissan Rogue VIN is actively included in Recall 22V-024 for the electrical connector fluid-wicking defect. The franchise dealership misinformed me regarding my vehicle's eligibility and failed to physically perform the mandatory wire harness remedy. They subsequently bypassed federal compliance by illegally marking the safety recall as closed or completed in the system without executing the physical repair. I have the physical invoice dated 11/25/2022, 0.00 parts/labor and visual inspection only, which contradicts what the recall procedure was defined as. Because the dealership skipped this mandatory safety remedy, the unaddressed fluid-wicking defect has now caused severe, cascading electrical system failures across multiple dashboard components. The vehicle remains an active electrical fire hazard as described in the original 22V-024 defect report. I am filing this new complaint specifically to report Dealer Recall Non-Compliance and Enforcement…”

“This issue is with my 2014 Nissan Rogue that fell under the manufacturer issued recall R21B9 (NHTSA Recall 22V-024). I understand that Nissan has now claimed that this recall has been resolved, but their resolution has NOT fixed the damage done to my car due to the recall. The R21B9 recall states ... "In affected vehicles, if water and salt collect in the driver's side foot well, it may wick up the dash side harness tape and enter the connector. If this occurs, the dash side harness connector may corrode. If the connector becomes corroded, electrical current may continue to flow between the connector terminals, potentially causing issues such as driver's power window or power seat inoperative, All-Wheel Drive (AWD) warning light ON, battery discharge, and/or thermal damage to the connector. In rare cases, the corrosion could potentially lead to a fire, which may increase risk of injury." I brought my 2014 Nissan Rogue to a Nissan service center in April of '22 when I started smelling natural gas coming from my car. The service center diagnosed and confirmed that this natural gas smell was due to recall R21B9. The Nissan service center returned my car to me in…”

“The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving approximately 15 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed and the vehicle shut off unexpectedly. The vehicle was restarted, and moments later there were two popping sounds coming from underneath the vehicle before the vehicle unexpectedly decelerated and was parked. The contact exited the vehicle to inspect the vehicle and discovered smoke and flames coming from underneath the middle of the vehicle. The Fire Department was immediately called to the vehicle scene, and moments later the smoke and flames were coming from underneath the hood of the vehicle. The flames were extinguished. A Police report was filed at the scene, and the vehicle was towed to the residence. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The failure mileage was 235,000.”

“When driving the rpm will be high but the car will not pick up speed. Many many times I’ve had to quickly put my hazards on when merging onto freeways or busy streets.”
