| Description of the problem | Bought a new 2018 rogue sv on 5/8/19 & have had continuous & unfixed problems with it. With 165 miles on the car, i took this rogue to the lebrun dealership in auburn, ny to correct 2 problems: 1 was the "repeated and very noticeable vibrations in the steering wheel & body of the car." and other electrical problems. Brought the rogue back to lebrun 5 more times to get these noticeable vibrations corrected. Both the owner & nissan factory rep. Drove the car and both agreed that i had vibrations in the steering wheel, etc. Why? Their answers were: "it has something to do with the transmission." if nissan knows what the problem is, why are they continuing to sell these cars with a known engineering designed-in defect? I asked for my money back but lebrun won't because he didn't build the car. And nissan? They too refused & honor their warranties and promises. I find that the dealership owner, nissan & the factory rep. To be corrupt and unethical in refusing to live up to their published warranties and promises. The fact that nissan & lebrun have known about these severe vibration problems for years & the factory rep. Had "determined my vehicle was operating as designed" is untrue. Nissan has refused to fix this engineering designed-in flaw is truly unacceptable & borders on the criminal, especially for the fact that they're still there in the 2019 and 2020 rogue models. I drove a 2020 rogue with the owner and the vibrations are still there. Also, this 2018 rogue has various electrical problems, such as: it kept, & still does at times, change my settings from fm to cd, xmradio to am, etc.; keeps blowing a 20 amp fuse when i tried to install a multi-outlet device & plugged in a dash cam & a radar detector. Also, if i just plug in my radar detector, shut off the ignition & open any door, the radar detector turns on. Electrical problems galore. |
