Nissan Rogue Recalls

The Nissan Rogue has 73 recalls spanning 2008 through 2026, with the most serious recent issue being engine bearing failure on 2021–2025 models equipped with the 1.5L or 2.0L variable compression turbo engine, where the bearings can seize, cause sudden loss of drive power, breach the engine block, and discharge hot oil that can ignite a fire.

The current generation carries a heavy recall load. On 2024–2025 models with the 1.5L VC-Turbo engine, the throttle body gears can break and cut drive power, and a separate software fault on 2024 models can cause the electronic throttle to fail with the same result. The 2026 model has a spare tire size mismatch that can lead to incorrect inflation. On 2024–2025 models, the rearview camera can display a blank screen when reversing. The 2023 model year has rear seat belt anchor bolts that can loosen and fail to restrain occupants in a crash, front seat belt pretensioners that may not tighten properly in a crash, a driver's seat that can detach from its rear bracket, and a driver's airbag inflator that can absorb moisture and deploy incorrectly.

The 2021–2022 generation has several fuel system concerns: on 2021 models, the fuel hose can disconnect from the tank sending unit, leaking fuel and stalling the engine, and the fuel pump can wear internally, overheat, and fail. On 2022 models, the fuel tank bottom wall may be too thin and can be punctured by road debris, and a separate manufacturing error during vehicle modifications may have punched a hole in the tank on some units. The 2021 model also has rear brake calipers that may be missing an internal bushing, allowing brake fluid to leak and reducing stopping power, and incorrect wheel nuts that can loosen, break the wheel studs, and allow a wheel to separate. Child seat upper tether anchors on 2021 models may be improperly welded and can pull free in a crash. Rear seat belts on 2021–2022 models may not retract properly, making them difficult to use. Multiple 2021–2022 infotainment software faults can cause the rearview camera to go dark while reversing.

The 2017–2019 Rogue Hybrid has two distinct issues: the brake booster can overheat internally and lose power assist, extending stopping distances, and the engine control module bracket can chafe the engine wiring harness, blow a fuse, and stall the engine. On 2017 models, water can leak into the dash wiring harness connector or into the driver's footwell electrical connections and cause a short circuit that can start a fire even with the vehicle parked. The automatic emergency braking system on 2017 models can also trigger a hard stop in response to overhead metal structures when no collision is present. The passenger seat occupant classification sensor on 2014–2017 models can misread the front passenger, causing the airbag to deploy incorrectly in a crash. The jackknife-style ignition key on 2014–2020 models can fold while driving, and driver contact with the collapsed key can shut the engine off unexpectedly.

The 2014–2016 era has a recurring water intrusion problem where moisture and road salt corrode the under-dash wiring harness connector, causing electrical faults and raising the risk of fire. On 2014 models specifically, multiple fuel pump
