2016 Rogue

I bought my Rouge Sport in August 2018. It is a 2017 model. Its winter now and am using the heat. I am having the same problems and I am going to leave it in next week.

Am going crazy with the heating problems I am having with my 2017 Nissan Rouge Sport. I bought the car in August 2018, new, with 200 miles on it. It now has 5000 miles on it. I only have it 5 months and I am having serious problems with the heat since the winter months arrived. Am really not sure how the AC works as I only drove it for a few weeks at the end of the summer. Most of the complaints on this website site is about AC so I don’t see many complaints about the heat. Am pretty sure if the heat is not working correctly then I will have a problem with the AC in a few months, if I keep this car. Firstly the fan speed works whenever it feels like it. Sometimes I have the heat up to 80 degrees or higher and the car is roasting and the fan speeds will not lower down by itself or in Auto mode. This usually happens at 5 AM, when am on my way to work and after I auto started the car twice. Usually on the way home, the fan speed does work by itself AND when it’s in the Auto mode. Other times when the heat is on, 3 out of the 4 front vents throw out cool air, usually after 20 minutes or so. The front driver side middle vent usually continues to throws out warm air when this happens. It doesn’t make any difference whether the air is on the intake mode or recirculating mode. It also does not make a difference if the fan speed mode is manual or Auto mode. It doesn’t make any difference whether the air flow is on feet only, feet and defrost, or feet and face mode. When I do leave it on Auto mode, the air flow defaults to feet mode ONLY. When the air starts throwing out cool air, my feet gets freezing. I usually turn the heat off at this stage and turn it back on again, a few minutes later. This is so distracting. I am constantly checking the air flow and changing the temperature settings. I am going to get myself into an accident. I took the car to Nissan after I read the complaints on this website. As predicted, as everyone said, they could not duplicate the problem. They drove the car for about 15 minutes and left it running in the shop for nearly an hour. So after waiting for 4 hours on my day off, nothing was resolved. Yes, they also give me the line about not having a diagnostic code for the temperature sensor. They suggested I leave it overnight for a manager to drive home. I may still do that, so long as the manager drives it 20+ miles each way. I am very frustrated with this problem on my new car. But because it’s intermittently, the Nissan mechanic may never find the problem. Is there anyone on this site, CarGurus, that can help me with this problem? The part that was recommend, 27723-4BUOA, that’s for the Temp sensor, right? Or do I need an evaporator sensor as well? Does anybody know if it will work for a 2017 Rouge sport? If it does, can I just order the part from Nissan and get my own mechanic to install it? (With the help of the photos someone posted)If I can’t get my own mechanic to fix it, then am just going to sell the car and buy a Honda CRV. I will never buy a Nissan again. I do love everything else about the car.

Anyone find the fix? The problem with my heat is when I start my car I always have setting on floor/ defrost and if it's blowing out of them selected vents it's working fine. But if it's only blowing air from front facing vents and not selected vents like defrost that's when I notice it blows out cold air, but air does warm up very little as car warms up. I know it's some dumbass sensor that's going to cost a shit ton of money just curious which one so I can fix mine...... Also mines a 2016 Nissan rogue sport

I have done nothing about my problem yet. Its stressing me out just thinking about going back over to Nissan. My vents work the same. The best setting is on the feet and defrost. I think you may have another issue. I am giving you 2 bulletins issued by Nissan, that may relate to your issue and mine. NTB17-028, is for what they call the Blower Motor, don't know the part # .The other issue isbulletin # NTB15-045E,, part #27500-4BB0C, it says its Manual Hvac improper operations. The advice from this website seems to be another issue, part 27723-4BUOA, that’s for the Temp sensor. That only cost $20 so I think am going to start there and change that first myself. Let me know how you get on.
