2025 Nissan Rogue

FAILED RECALL REMEDY / CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE (VIN: [XXX]) Approximately 90 days prior to this failure, I brought my 2025 Nissan Rogue (1.5L VC-Turbo engine) to an authorized Nissan dealership for a mandatory safety recall (NHTSA Campaign 26V080 / 26V081). During that visit, the dealership only performed an Engine Control Module (ECM) software flash and refused to drop the oil pan or physically inspect the engine bearings for existing thermal damage, claiming no check engine light was illuminated. Just 90 days later, at 66,750 miles, the vehicle suffered a catastrophic engine failure while in operation, which the dealership diagnosed as a blown head gasket requiring over $11,000 in repairs. A blown head gasket is a direct consequential failure of the severe internal oil temperature spikes and bearing seizure documented in Recall 26V080. Because the dealership performed an incomplete recall remedy that failed to detect pre-existing thermal damage to the engine block, the vehicle was left in an unsafe condition that led to total engine failure. Both the dealership and Nissan Consumer Affairs are now refusing to cover the repair at 100% under the recall campaign or Nissan's 10-year/120,000-mile VC-Turbo engine warranty extension, attempting instead to force me into a partial out-of-pocket "Goodwill" co-pay.

I am reporting an unresolved safety defect in my 2025 Nissan Rogue SL AWD (VIN: [XXX]). Since XXX, the digital instrument cluster has intermittently gone completely black for approximately 5–10 seconds during nighttime driving, particularly when the cluster brightness is reduced. During these incidents, the speedometer, warning indicators, and other critical driving information become unavailable. I have directly observed Intelligent Cruise Control disengage during these incidents. Other driver-assistance features, including Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking, appear unavailable, although I cannot independently confirm whether their underlying functions are affected. The problem generally does not occur during daytime driving when the cluster brightness is not reduced. I brought the vehicle to McGavock Nissan of [XXX] on XXX, and XXX. The instrument cluster was replaced under warranty, but the malfunction continued. The dealership subsequently reproduced and documented the problem, and Nissan engineering became involved. On XXX, I experienced a near-collision in [XXX]. No impact or injury occurred. Despite four dealership visits, the defect remains unresolved. Nissan initially reported that a replacement part was backordered without an estimated arrival date. In its latest communication, Nissan stated that it was still working to get the part released for repairs, without providing a repair date. I am concerned that losing the speedometer and warning indicators during nighttime driving, together with the observed cruise-control disengagement, creates a serious safety risk. I request that NHTSA investigate this recurring defect and determine whether other Nissan Rogue vehicles may be affected.
