2023 Nissan Rogue SV Premium 1.5 turbo 3 cylinder from North America
Summary:
Pretty looks that do decieve
Faults:
Factory tires bald at 12,000 miles-dealer stated they use tires with less rubber from new than the off the rack versions of the same thing.
Nissan makes windshields out of sugar because all 4 I’ve leased have cracked.
Axle shafts torn and leaking at 15000 miles.
Oil pan is plastic and the drain plug is a common stripping point. Luckily tire choice replaced it or it would have cost me another $600.
Gas mileage when it’s cold out is on par with a 2001 Dodge ram 4x4 crew cab with a 5.9 V8 I used to have. Not kidding.
And oh yeah the little nugget of the motor grenading at 26,000 while I was on the interstate in Friday rush hour traffic. No leaks found but coolant is in cylinders 2 and 3, total replacement in progress.
General Comments:
I have the SV Premium with heated leather seats and steering wheel and panoramic moonroof; it’s comfortable-I took it from Ohio up to Maine and down the east coast to Florida with no complaints. The tech is nice, and on long distances it will get around 37-40 mpg, but in city and cold weather it’s 15-17. The major issues it’s having so early make me advise others against purchasing. I lease so in a few months I’ll be in a RAV4 hybrid.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

With their CEO on the run, it's interesting to see how Nissan will evolve. I wonder about the mpg figure. Is there a reason you are using imperial while living in the US? Imperial mpg is significantly higher than the US conversion. 28 imp equals 23 US. For the center console rubbing on your right knee, this is something car makers sometimes lack attention with. I suggest sticking on a small piece of soft padded material.
