What owners describe

Engine

Owners of this Rogue commonly report the engine losing power or stalling suddenly, sometimes with shaking, smoke, or warning lights, occasionally needing a full engine or turbo replacement. Many mention related recalls, though some say dealers couldn't fix the problem or parts weren't available.

Warning signs:
Many report shaking, shuddering, knocking or grinding sounds, warning lights, smoke or burning odor, and reduced acceleration before the stall or shutdown.
What shops did:
Dealers often diagnosed cracked or knocking engines, turbochargers, or throttle bodies needing replacement, though several owners say the vehicle wasn't repaired, parts were backordered, or the problem returned after repair.
Mileage:
most between 20,000 and 60,000 miles, among 15 complaints that give it

“the vehicle started shaking and shut off unintendedly. The check engine warning light was illuminated.”

Powertrain

Many owners of the 2024 Rogue describe the vehicle suddenly losing power or stalling on the road, often preceded by an "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced" dashboard message. Some had engine, throttle, or transmission components replaced, while others say dealers couldn't find or fully fix the problem.

Warning signs:
Many report a dashboard message reading "Engine Malfunction Power Reduced Service Now," along with check engine lights, rough running, loud or grinding noises, or hesitation before the failure.
What shops did:
Some owners report dealers replaced parts such as the battery, throttle body, engine, or CVT mount, though several say the dealer could not reproduce or repair the issue.
Mileage:

“Message came on engine malfunction power reduced service now. Thank god no cars was behind me. I pulled over turned the car off then put it back on.”

“CVT error displaying on dashboard as well as check engine light vehicle would not start up initially. After 20 minutes it started with a loud grinding noise occurring.”

Visibility

Owners of this Rogue report the rear window or liftgate glass spontaneously shattering while parked or driving, often with a loud bang and no apparent cause. Many say dealers and Nissan denied warranty coverage, leaving them to pay for replacement themselves.

Warning signs:
Many describe a loud pop, bang, or crack sound, sometimes preceded by frost, defroster use, temperature changes, or door closing, before the glass shattered.
What shops did:
Some dealers or the manufacturer declined to cover replacement under warranty, citing no active recall or mileage limits, leaving owners to pay out of pocket or file insurance claims; a few had the glass replaced.

“it sounded like a gunshot and the rear window completely exploded. There were cracks all over the entire rear window”

“I heard a loud pop and then a cracking, crumbling like noise and looked back to see the glass was completely shattered.”

  • NHTSA 26V080000February 2026323,917 vehicles

    Engine and engine cooling: engine: hard parts internal/mechanical

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2023-2025 Rogue vehicles equipped with 3-cylinder 1.5L variable compression turbo (VC-Turbo) engines. Increased temperatures can break down the engine oil, which may cause the engine bearings to seize and become damaged, leading to engine failure.

    Risk: Engine failure can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. A bearing failure may cause a breach in the engine block, allowing hot oil to be discharged, increasing the risk of an engine fire.

    Fix: Dealers will reprogram the engine control module (ECM) software, inspect for diagnostic trouble codes, and test drive the vehicle, free of charge.

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Rogue vehicles equipped with 3-cylinder 1.5L variable compression turbo (VC-Turbo) engines. The gears in the electronic throttle body assembly may break.

    Risk: Broken throttle body gears can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Fix: Dealers will reprogram the engine control module (ECM) software and inspect and replace the electronic throttle body assembly as necessary, free of charge.

The engine bearings may have manufacturing defects that can lead to engine failure.

    Risk: Engine failure increases the risk of a crash. A bearing failure may cause a breach in the engine block, allowing hot oil to be discharged, increasing the risk of an engine fire.

    Fix: Dealers will reprogram the engine control module (ECM) software, free of charge.

  • NHTSA 24V748000October 202437,236 vehicles

    Equipment: electrical: infotainment: software · Back over prevention

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Rogue and 2025 INFINITI QX80 vehicles. A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank screen when the vehicle is in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

    Risk: The loss of the rearview camera image while in reverse can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Fix: The in-vehicle infotainment software will be updated by an over-the-air (OTA) software update or by a dealer, free of charge.
