Vehicle has plume of blue smoke each time it turns on, burning oil. Was informed by mechanic that it is a bad piston ring, which is common with this vehicle’s engine. It will eat through a full engine of oil in two months. 4K-10k fix. Car has 71k miles on it; under 10k miles put on it a year. Gets regular oil changes based on typical recommendation for a low mileage vehicle. Oil is checked regularly. This is in addition to a bad intake fan that needed replacing and cost 1.5k that others have been complaining of where the car would severely overheat.

Nissan - started with delay acceleration while driving. Called our mechanic to set up appointment to see what was going on. When going to put the car in reverse to leave, the car floored forward and just missed hitting our house and electrical box! We were unable to get the vehicle to reverse, all gears brought the vehicle forward. We had to put in neutral gear and push the car backwards in order to drive down to our mechanic to have it looked at. Our local mechanic said the transmission needed to be replaced.. upon looking to see if this issue was reported by other consumers with a Nissan rogue sport; several complaints documented online of vehicle acceleration issues, especially on a highway and safety concerns. Seems that the transmission is an issue that needs to be addressed before someone is hurt or a crash occurs in our case our house almost being hit. I would like to report this issue with the 2017 Nissan rogue sports as a safety concern. My vehicle has under 100,000 miles and should not need a new transmission or have this safety arise is very concerning and I am looking for a resolution and coverage to fix this flaw with the transmission.
