2015 Nissan Rogue Steering Problems

My car all of a sudden is having electrical issues. The radio is changing stations and volume all by itself. The steering wheel is getting hard to turn. The brake light fuse is burning out right away. I’ve replaced the fuse 3 times already in one week but it keeps burning out within 24hrs or less. My gages are going up and down fast motion. My battery all of a sudden is draining and it is brand new. I only have a little over 60,000. This is not normal at all and it is going to cause me to get in an accident.

After noticing my front tires are wearing on the outside much quicker thank n the rear tires, and I rotate them with every oil change, I noticed a clicking in the steering when making a hard left turn. My mechanic told me it's an issue with the steering rack and I saw that Nissan is looking into this and may issue a recall. So I wanted to add my name to the list of effected cars.

Leaving Walgreens & my car won’t start (I just bought a new battery a month ago). Called a friend for jump start & it took it awhile to start (5-10 minutes). While driving home my steering locked up twice & the stereo cut out a couple times. It also chugged a couple times like it was going to die. Once home and shut off - the doors won’t lock.

October 2021 while driving at a 55 mph my stirring wheel felt hard to maneuver and a chasis control light/check engine light came on. I felt a resistance to steer and speed was reducing. I manage to pull over right away and turn off car it would not turn off until I continuously press my start button. After my car got towed it would not jump star no power at all A mechanics saw and diagnostic as an electrical issue possibly harness with a code U0100. I decided to take to Nissan dealer they diagnosed an IPM issue replaced for $1300. Took car drove fine for two months two months later while driving my chasis control light came up again my steering to the right was too hard so I pull to the left manage to park. Car turn off at first press on start button but it wouldn’t jump start again. Replace the ipm Nissan said harness that holds has to be replace want to do it for $5k and not sure if it will fix issue. My car had no signs of issues ever before very scare to fix and drive now since it just suddenly doesn’t let me control steering and dies right away with no warnings. Very dangerous for all road drivers. No current recall resolution till next month however I need a vehicle very inconvenient and dangerous for me.

THREE TIMES NOW THE CAR HAS SHUT DOWN ENTIRELY WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. ENGINE STOPS RUNNING, ALL LIGHTS AND POWER ARE OFF, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES ARE LOST. IT CREATES AN INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS SCENARIO. CAR WILL RESTART ALMOST IMMEDIATELY BUT YOU HAVE TO ROLL TO A STOP WITH NO POWER BRAKES OR STEERING, AS I SAID IT'S INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. HAPPENS MID-DRIVE, WITH CAR IN MOTION, INCLUDING AN INSTANCE GOING 70 MPH ON A BUSY INTERSTATE. HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES OVER THE LAST TWO MONTHS. *TR

TEERING WHEEL VIBRATES AT SPEEDS 25-55 MPH. MOST OF THE VIBRATION WILL STOP IF I DRIVE IN THE SPORT MODE. HAVE BACK TO DEALER THREE TIMES, BUT NO LUCK. THEY SAID OTHER 2015 ROGUE SHOW THE SAME PROBLEM, THERE IS NO TBS ISSUED YET, SO THEY BASICALLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS FELT THE VIBRATIONS. YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR A LIKE A HARMONIC NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND AM WAITING FOR A RESOLUTION OR SOMETHING. I ASKED NISSAN TO FIND A ROGUE THAT DOESN'T VIBRATE OR GET OUT OF MY LEASE WITH MY MONEY BACK.
