2025 Nissan Rogue Reliability Score & Common Problems

I was using the snow mode because there was a little bit of snow and ice on the road. I had been driving it that morning and did not have a problem until I turned in to my street. I turned right and the steering and brakes and accelerator all locked, leaving me where my car slid across the road and the left drivers side tire ran over the curb. I was not able to correct anything as everything locked. Even though I am okay and was going less than 5 mph while turning. I feel like the whole car's function to lock is unsafe as it left me to hope the curb would stop it. The car had to get towed and is now in the shop with $4,000 of damage to that tire and tire rods which I feel like could not have been prevented considering everything was locked and did not allow me to correct properly.

The driver seat in the 2025 Nissan Rogue is extremely narrow and places excessive pressure on my left hip, causing bruising, severe discomfort, and lower back pain after short driving periods. The seat forces my body into an unnatural posture that affects my ability to sit upright and operate the vehicle safely. After I reported the issue to the dealership, I was told to “keep driving until the seat flattens out” or “have a heavy-set person sit in the seat,” which are not safe or reasonable solutions. The seat design is causing physical injury and makes safe driving difficult.

The contact owns a 2025 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormally strong sulfur odor inside the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that the odor was caused by the exhaust system; however, no diagnostic trouble codes were retrieved. The contact was informed that the vehicle was safe to be driven. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 9,000.

Only a few weeks after purchasing my brand new vehicle, the airbag warning light appeared. When I brought it in February, I was told a part was on backorder for about 4-6 weeks and, quite concerningly, advised to “not hit anything” in the meantime. At that point, I was not made aware that this meant the airbag system was disabled and that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. For months — and through multiple service visits and oil changes — no one at the dealership informed me of the continued safety risk or provided updates unless I reached out myself. It was not until July, after repeatedly escalating the issue and emailing Service Manager Ryan Hernandez, that I was finally provided a loaner vehicle, upon my request. Even then, the experience was disorganized, impersonal, and dismissive, especially given the nature of the safety defect. While I understand that the airbag part is on national backorder and some delays are out of peoples control, the fact remains: I purchased a new vehicle that was unsafe from the start, and Nissan — both at the corporate and dealership levels — has failed to address the issue in a reasonable timeframe. As of October 27th, I have spoken with the general manager, Josh Ingrim, about this matter for the FIRST time, because I was told service employees and by previous management in the service department that they would be expediting my situation. It has been 10 months since I’ve bought my car with no clear eta on my car repair or a an attempt to make right of the situation. The manager claims to have been in contact with consumer affairs and fixed operations manager but have not heard back.
