YES. 9/4/2026 I WENT TO GET IN THE VEHICLE THAT WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOTICED THE BACK GLASS WAS SHATTERED I ATTEMPTED TO SEARCH THE CAR FOR BASEBALLS OR ROCKS NO EVIDENCE OF FOUL PLAY WAS FOUND AND WHEN I SHUT THE DOOR WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE THE WHOLE BACK GLASS CAVED IN. I WAS TOLD THE ROGUE HAS A DEFECTIVE BACK GLASS AND I AM THANKFUL I WAS NOT GOING DOWN THE HWY AT 70 MPH W MY CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT AS THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS. IT SAID HIGH TEMPS CAN BURST THE GLASS AND IT WAS 100 DEGREES THE DAY THE GLASS SHATTERED BUT WE OWN OTHER VEHICLES THAT WITHHELD THAT TYPE OF TEMP. I DONT THINK THIS IS FAIR I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE THE GLASS WHEN MY VEHICLE IS UNDER MANUFACTURS WARRANTY ONLY HAVING 20K MILES ON THE VEHICLE IM A VERY DISSATISFIED CUSTOMER W NISSAN.

On September 6, 2026, the rear liftgate window of my 2023 Nissan Rogue SV AWD was discovered completely shattered while the vehicle was parked. The vehicle had been parked since approximately 7:00 a.m. and was not being driven when the glass failure occurred. There had been no known collision or prior damage to the rear glass. When the vehicle was discovered, the rear window was shattered throughout. We did not identify an obvious impact point or object that would explain the breakage. The rear wiper remained attached and there was no other apparent damage to the liftgate. Because the glass failure occurred while the vehicle was stationary and without a known impact, I am reporting this as a potential safety defect involving the rear liftgate glass. Had this occurred while the vehicle was being driven, shattered glass could have entered the passenger or cargo area and created a safety hazard. I have photographs documenting the condition of the vehicle and broken glass.

Rear windshield shattered spontaneously. I was in a restaurant drive-through and was not moving. I heard a very loud crack/bang, sounded like a shot or a brick hit my car. There was no "hole" but the entire back windshield was shattered. Once I started driving, glass started breaking away and falling into my car. There is no current recall for this, but it's a known issue for this make/model/year.

After multiple issues with the motor of my new Rogue, my windshield spontaneously shattered this week. I'm glad I was not driving the vehicle when it occurred because apparently it sounded like a shotgun when it ruptured. This is a major issue apparently for many Rogue owners. My concern is what else might be wrong with the vehicle - not a safe vehicle for sure. If you're a mom and driving with little kiddos - please find a safer vehicle! Nissan is repairing the windshield and is trying to offer to trade the vehicle - which is a sign that they are aware of this problem among Rogues.

My hood flew open while I was driving and my vision was impaired, the hood latch is defective. There should be a safety on the hood if the button gets hit and you forget and drive off the latch should hold the lid down.

There ring camera showed no one around the car from the time I parked it and until we noticed that it was shattered.
