2014 Rogue 2nd fuel pump and a small hole problem

[newnissanowner123]

After a wreck that totaled my Hyundai Tucson last month, I purchased a Rogue SL with 24k miles. In doing my research, I noticed the fuel pump had been replaced at 2,500 miles, due to the recall I assume. First owner then sold the car at 5,000 miles and 2nd owner kept it without issue until I bought it.

It still has a manufactures warranty until July, 2017. Within a week of purchase, I noticed the warning indicator that said fuel door open. I was sure I had clicked it closed. It did it twice, so I brought it in. They said there was a small hole and they would order a part, bring the car back in 3 days for repair. Brought it back, and the repair didn't hold when they test drove it.

So they put me in a rental and are replacing the fuel pump, again. It has now been over a week and I am still in the rental. Clearly, I have grave concerns about this issue and while I got a great price on the car and I am not upside down, I can't afford to take a loss on the taxes ect. High school teacher, single Mom.

Of course, after doing all the reading on this board, I am very concerned I've purchased a headache. Any advice would be appreciated.

Sorry to hear about your issues! My in-laws have been leasing Rogues since the first model year. They love them. I believe the only mechanical issues they had was with their 2008 and it was nothing more than a bad belt idler/tensioner.

I wouldn't sweat fuel system problems because most of the components are covered by a 7yr/70K mile Federal Emissions Warranty. Some components are covered longer. Check your owner's manual.

I'm not a huge extended warranty guy, but for your troubles at this point, talk to your dealership and see if they could extend your warranty or give you a big discount on an extended warranty. Most cover rental cars and have zero deductible.

Funny I just picked up my 14 Nissan Rogue from the dealership for a cracked fuel pump. Happened right at 60k miles so thankfully it was done under warranty. It was triggering a loose gas cap alert for me.

Did you have an extended warranty? I have called Nissan America to let them know of my issues. I would feel better if they would extend my warranty.
