My Rogue

 

 Kind of concerned as I have been reading several reviews and joined a Facebook group as well and there are several complaints about the Rogue, especially the newer ones. Everything from engines needing replacement, to transmissions going out, stalling out on roadways and a lot of glass issues with major breakage and shattering for no apparent reasons. Everyone keeps reporting that they informed their dealerships as to rear window shattering and just getting the reply that its not an issue.

 Others have reported driver side door windows cracking, and even some sunroofs shattering. Everyone leans toward a cabin pressure issue as the cause but Nissan denies any fault or liability which is Bullshit at best. When you try and contact them with these issues they just tell you to call corporate to expedite the complaint/resolutions.. What is the point of having a warranty if its not going to be honored and rectify the issues. 

Most of the newer versions of the Rogue, say '21 and up,  these issues manage to crop up around the 5000 mile mark as its been reported anyway. There are those that survive and go unscathed as well, I just hope that the two we own are in that category as this was one of the main reasons we bought them to begin with. We were so sick of repairs and trying to keep a vehicle on the road.

 

This is what I had been looking at for a couple days.. I thought it might be due to a dirty sensor cover/lens somewhere on the car, so I cleaned and wiped down all the sensors I could see/find. Nope.. still there just warning me my driving aids where temporarily limited..

I decided to move my vanity plate from the lower front bumper to a higher spot on the grill and viola.. sensors reading normal.. Apparently there is one somewhere down low on the front that I didn't know about maybe.. whatever the cause, they are cleared now so that is just my assumption.

 Today Deb had a work at home day and did telehealth all day. So I decided it would be a good chance for me to clean out her car. The previous owner has two yellow labs with long hair and ya, it was all over the back area of the car along with some spilled formula, or at least that's what I assume it was..

So it got cleaned along with the rest of the car interior. Got to admit I did not think that there was as much hair and dirt as there was after looking at the vacuum.. dang I could have made another dog out of all that.. lol.

I couldn't stop there either, so I figured I would just go ahead and do mine as well. and of course as soon as I was done washing the cars, it decided to pour cats and dogs splashing dirt and fresh grass cuttings all over the damn things. So now I need to do another rinse tomorrow.. oh well, gives me something to do I guess. At least the interiors look like new again. All I know was it was way to humid today to be doing that kind of work out in the driveway, think I managed to shed a couple pounds myself.. I was as wet as the cars from sweat.

Got me to thinking though.. yesterday, I took Nikki to her Dr. Appt. and across the street was an automated car wash.. I counted no less that 100 cars in a period of about hour. They were running through there like every 2-3 minutes. Imagine if only charging say $10.00 per wash.. that place was making a killing, as I know they charge more than that now days.. Were talking well over $1000/hr.. I think I need to go into business somewhere around here...lol. Apparently, folks don't like driving their vehicles dirty or dusty down here.. which I am surprised considering we get rain/ downpours on the daily anyway..!
