Tl* the contact owned a 2012 nissan rogue. The contact stated that the parked vehicle caught fire without warning. The fire department extinguished the fire. A police report was filed. The vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 15v032000(electrical system); however, the contact was notified of the recall prior to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000.
Vehicle in the shop for a major oil leak, 2 key fobs don't work, recall, leaking sunroof, and last but not least air bag light flashing. Quoted 3500 to replace seat/module, 350. For oil issue, 1400. Sunroof. I inherited this car in 2013 when my mother passed away and it only has 20000 miles on it. I could buy another newer used car at this rate!! This is rediculous for a vehicle with so low miles to have this many issues. At this rate I will never purchase or recommend nissan again. Please advise. Thanks, deb
