nissan rogue vibrations

the Nissan rogues have a defect in the front right wheel area. while accelerating up to 40 mph you can feel a vibration. many people have complained to there dealers and they have said -cant be duplicated or is normal operating condition. ask them to document where the vibration is coming from and the specification of what is normal and abnormal vibration. Dealers have NVH ( noise vibration harshment ) tools. they can tell you what frequency and amplitude the vibration is at. demand from your dealer to put your rogue up on a hoist in drive at idle and make sure you go back there and see it for yourself. i hope you don't have the same problem as me.if you do file a complaint with your state attorney general and the NHTS and hire a lawyer

Shop owner here. You can’t run Nissan Rouges on a lift with the wheels hanging like that. They will all bounce and vibrate due to the axle angles being too steep and causing the inner CV joint to bind. This is not a good way to diagnose your problem. I’m sure you have a legitimate problem but this test is inaccurate.

I have a 2009 nissan rogue and mine did the same thing and i have found the problem for mine .it is the carrier bearing bracket that holds the 2 front cvs in place .it had a crack in it and as i drove it and it heated up the crack would sepperate even more and make it have the death wobble on it. I replaced the carrier bearing and bracket as it is 1 unit .and my problem is fixed i truely hope this helps someone else

Hi this is the EXACT noise that has been worrying me on MY 2013 Nissan Rogue! I got it new & it now only has 20 thousand seven hundred miles (20700) on it!! The sound wasn't there under 20 thousand!! My local gas station/ shop owner changed rear brakes thinking it was that but it still sounds same! I am glad I found your video b4 I waste more time/money. I can put up w/a noise if I'm not worried that it won't cause an accident and kill me!! Unfortunately I think THIS is a serious defect. I have no mechanic training whatsoever, but it is OBVIOUS that vigorous shaking at high speed/rotation inevitably will jar, and/ or wear away, certain parts! AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE BEING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE "OUTCOME" happens!(duh...) I think it's time to bring a class action.

My mom has a 2013 and I changed the exhaust clams. When I went under the Rouge to my surprise they were rusted off and dangling. It's a $3.00 to $9.00 fix. I would see if the old ones are on there nice and tight. I own a 2018 and mine have the same problem but my clams seem to be on there nice and tight. So while I fixed my mom's Rouge mine has the same issue without result. I'm still searching.

2016 Rogue, 50K, 8y. I noticed the vibration at 30K, by 50K the air duct and the air filter box began to cause rattling noise when idle at stops. The engine mounts don't seem to show any severe wear.

[@DM-hw4cr]

My low end luggy vibration disappeared with fresh spark plugs. Runs way better. Nissan suggest changing at 80 to 100k which is crazy. Do it at 50k with oem plugs that are pre gapped ngk laser irridium . Very easy to do by yourself. 08 rogue

[@jasonfromm5637]

Really , thinking that might be my problem with my 2015 pathfinder, 42,000

[@DJXTACY2012]

I have a 2017 Rogue with 58,000 thinking of changing the plugs . Did yours have NGK when you took them out ?

[@DM-hw4cr]

@@DJXTACY2012 yes

[@lstruggy]

I just bought a 2016 rogue s awd w 30k in it last week. I do notice a little shaking on the steering wheel while on idle but goes away when driving is this normal as well? I got the 6yrs/bumper to bumper/drivetrain warranty should I be worried it’s only been a week! 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@MrGarcon98]

take the sucker back quick i would not trust NISSAN anymore with all the surprises i had and the incompetence to go with it ,,,i dont think ill be buying another one of those ! snakes

[@lstruggy]

@@MrGarcon98 hahaaa thanks for the smart advice my friend! I got rid of that junk after 8 months purchasing it no bueno 💩 meanwhile my 07 jgc laredo just surpassed 231K and she still runs amazing tip top shape! ✅

[@joedeguzman8687]

I have 2013 Rouge and sometimes it vibrate /shakes while my daughter driving..is this problem Resolve by the Nissan already?

[@josephhbangers9697]

As i drive my nissan up on ramps i would hear a loud vibration until i put my car on ramps then sound fades away sounds like its coming from the center like cataletic converter or a torque converter i been having hestitation on take offs

[@dre7719]

I had the same thing when working on a Toyota sienna. Axle shaft was Bent..

[@bobyleengoma6549]

I have the same issue with my 2013 Nissan Rogue so how did you end fixing it ?

[@jesusaleman3620]

What ended up happening 😓asking for a friend ✊🏽

[@postersm7141]

That’s amazing that they compared a 2009 rogue with another 2009 rogue. Well no shit it’s gonna ride the same because they’re the same age and have the same defect. It says no recommended repair at this time. But once it’s out of fucking warranty I guarantee you they will recommend a $6000 repair. Do not let them get away with this. This is why Nissan will be pulling out of North America because they don’t stand behind their product or their customers. CVT transmissions are pretty horrible to begin with but Nissan uses the worst one on the market and they are plagued with problems.

[@mindiseverything5036]

Looks like everything is shaking above the subframe so bushing and mounts attached to the subframe are prolly bad.

[@thenoid5131]

do you have lemon laws in your state? if yes then consult a lemon law lawyer that will fix the problem FAST

[@josephhbangers9697]

I have a 2013 sentra i have a intermitent vibration on the steering wheel at certain speeds i think when you have your radio turned off when the cvt engages it reminds me of a sewing machine

[@brandoo803]

I have the same problem with my car did you get it fix??? Because they said nothing was wrong with my rogue at my local Nissan

[@funissan]

the known manufacturers defect in which dealers willfully conspired to hide and make known false statements was unrepariable.. I would take the Rogue to your Nissan dealer and ask to see it on the hoist running at idle in drive and if it shakes ( as seen on video )i would then start a lemon law suit to start.

[@correneburton6893]

I found in my 2099 rogue that it was the carrier bearing bracket that holds both front cvs in place

[@jeraldlisenko4873]

You have an awd, that shouldnt be running while when all 4 tires are not on the ground.

[@hamag1973]

Just changed CV-axels and removed the kardan. Problem solved, I thaught. The problem got WAY WORSE. No I cant even use the car at all it's shaking so horrobly. Wtf's going on. Im so mad I could explode.. Before it was drivable in 4WD but way worse i 2WD. So I thaugt it was the CV axels but the old axels actualy turned out to be in very good shape.. That's when I got really worried. But I went on changeing them thinking it could not get worse and I would know they are perfect. Now the quest goes on😪

[@Copynnpaste]

Who gets the awd lock but doesn’t turn off causing the rogue to shake?

[@raphaeldarocha6422]

Whats the fix?

[@ykmalachi]

Was there any service engine light associated with this?

[@cristianlopez5950]

2009 rogue ..same problem and i replaced a cracked carrier bearing bracket

[@postersm7141]

Nissan uses the worst CVT transmission on the market. You have to realize the car manufacturers do not build the transmissions. Nissan uses a CVT transmission by a company called JATCO and if you ask any professional mechanic they are all in agreement that this is the worst CVT transmission on the planet. Toyota on the other hand uses the best CVT transmission. I can’t remember who makes their‘s but it is not JATCO. Look it up and you can do your own research. JATCO is the worst and this is what Nissan puts in all of their unibody cars. By the way if you’re driving a Nissan chances are it is a unibody CVT transmission car. Unless it’s a body on frame truck, it is using a Jatco CVT transmission. Funny thing is I made this same post recently and it was mysteriously taken down. Trust me Nissan is aware of the problem. I’ve had my own problems with a NV 200 Nissan van with a shitty CVT and even the dealership admitted that it is the worst transmission ever made. They still have not been able to fix it while it’s under warranty. I guarantee you once the warranty runs out they’ll be able to fix it for $6000 by replacing it with the same defective transmission. I personally did not buy this vehicle my company did. I will never buy a Nissan vehicle because of this issue and the way they handle the situation. Just buy a Honda or a Toyota and be done with it. You might pay a little more money upfront but you will save big-time in the long run

[@kelleybanks7527]

I agree

[@StormLaker]

I have a 2011 Nissan Rogue. It's a great car, but if I had a choice at the time I bought it, I would have gotten a Honda CRV or a Pilot instead- way better vehicles.

[@alphashadow354]

Ok so I'm working on my 2011 Nissan rogue krom with the 2.5 l I'll let you know what I find

[@andrewb6603]

So...

[@garyvargas3499]

i guss nobady has a real answer here for this issue wow am so piss my make the same sound and nobady no what it is

[@postersm7141]

For all of you guys asking if Nissan has resolved the problem, the answer is no. The problem is that Nissan uses the worst CVT transmission ever built. I can’t remember who makes the transmission for them but I do know it is the least reliable CVT transmission on the market. Toyota happens to use the best CVT transmission. You have to understand that the car makers do not build these transmissions. They are built by another manufacturer and Nissan unfortunately Use is the worst one. I have a Nissan NV 200 with the CVT and it shutters under hard acceleration. I’m still fighting with the dealer to get it resolved under warranty.. The most important thing is to not let these assholes get away with it. It is not normal by any stretch of the imagination and you have to fight until you get it resolved. Unfortunately even best case scenario is to replace the shitty transmission with another shitty transmission. But at least if you get it done under warranty you’ll get some more miles out of the car. My advice would be to make sure they fix it under warranty and then sell the car and never buy another Nissan

[@sethlittle7338]

Did you just say that a nv200 has a cvt? Lmao that’s a van and it has a 7 speed auto you’re entire comment is most likely false and made up bs if you think a van has a cvt

[@aaronhuff4484]

Jatco makes that garbage. My wife has a 2008 rogue. We drive our vehicles until its not feasible to repair them and then use them as backup. Currently 239 thousand miles and some change and the only thing it's ever had done is 1 set of spark plugs to my knowledge and the cvt case bearings went out and had to be replaced so other than that and 1 set of pads on the front and a set of tires its all original. But I have a vibration up front that roars. I'm going to replace the wheel bearings and check on the cv shafts and some engine and trans mounts and the exhaust and if that don't fix it its gonna just be driven till whatever it is dies.

[@hamag1973]

Dont think it's the CVT-gearbox. I have the same problem and I'v got the old turbine Aisin 6 speed in mine. But yes, the early CVT's not good.

[@postersm7141]

Why would you buy a Renault/Nissan to begin with? Renault even has NOOOOOO in its name RENAULT is pronounced renooooo. Do your research on Renault, I promise if you do you will never buy a Nissan product produced after the merger
