When other body or interior problem gets reported

Owners of the 2014 Nissan Rogue report other body or interior problem at a median of 65,000 miles. A quarter of the reports come in before 20,000 miles and a quarter after 95,000 miles, from 22 reports that carried an odometer reading.

A part like this is normally expected to survive 88,000 miles. It is the 6th most-reported problem on this model year.

The mileage distribution

The reported range runs from 700 miles at the tenth percentile to 125,000 miles at the ninetieth, a spread of 124,272 miles across the middle 80% of reports.

When the reports scatter this far, the mileage is telling you about how these cars were driven more than about the part itself.

41% of the dated reports were filed under 36,000 miles.

The whole distribution

Percentiles of the 22 odometer readings owners gave.

740 miles 20,500 miles 64,087 miles 94,000 miles 125,012 miles

Read the 10th percentile as “one report in ten arrived this early”. Exact figures are shown in this table because it is the table of record; everywhere else on the site they are rounded to the precision the sample can carry.

What a percentile can and cannot tell you here

These five numbers describe the readings owners gave, in order. The median is the middle one: half the reports arrived below it. The 10th and 90th are the edges of the bulk of the distribution, and the distance between them is the part worth reading. A tight spread — say 70,000 to 95,000 miles — points at something that wears out on a schedule, and the schedule is knowable. A wide one, 20,000 to 190,000, points at a fault that hits some cars and never troubles others, which means the mileage on the listing in front of you tells you very little about your odds.

What these figures are not is a survival curve. Every reading here comes from a car whose owner filed a complaint, so the sample contains only failures: it cannot say what share of the fleet made it past 150,000 miles untouched, because those owners had nothing to report. Nor is the mileage the moment of failure — it is the odometer reading as recalled at the time of filing, which may be weeks later and is sometimes rounded to the nearest ten thousand by the person typing it.

Percentiles are shown at all only once 8 readings exist for the vehicle and mode. Below that the middle of a handful of numbers is noise wearing a decimal point, so the figures are withheld rather than dressed up.

What happens, and what it costs

Of these reports, 2 a crash, 1 a fire and 1 an injury are mentioned. Owners write their own complaints and the agency does not verify them, so read this as what the reports say happened rather than as a confirmed count.

Putting it right typically runs $200–$2,000 at an independent US shop. That range is an editorial estimate held in this site's failure-mode catalogue, not a figure from NHTSA, and it is a repair cost rather than a diagnosis cost.

The same failure on other years

The same failure is reported on 16 model years of this car. It shows up earliest on the 2019, at a median of 10,000 miles, and latest on the 2024 at 115,000 miles.

By volume the 2016 carries the most reports, with 46; the 2014 has 31. A mode that appears across most years of a model is usually a design choice rather than a bad batch.

If one year stands out to the left, that is the year to avoid; if the whole line sits at a similar mileage, this is wear rather than a defect in one production run.

What owners wrote

Verbatim from NHTSA complaint narratives, trimmed for length. The mileage is the one the owner gave.

The vehicle was purchased two weeks ago. The front passenger seat would not recline, after taking the vehicle to a nissan dealership I was told the front passenger seat had distorted bolts and the wires that were under the front eat were not placed correctly. These wires were for the front passenger airbag therefore; the front passenger airbag would not work if an accident has occurred.

300 miles NHTSA complaint 1044631 filed 2014-03-11

Just a complaint that the headrest of the 2014 nissan rogue is very uncomfortable. I am a woman who is 5'4" and I can never get the headrest in a comfortable position, it pushes my head too far forward. *tr

600 miles NHTSA complaint 1090619 filed 2014-07-25

I was driving in heavy traffic taking my wife to work. I was going about 15 to 20 MPH because of morning rush hour traffic in chicago is heavy. I turned my head to answer my wife and being distracted I turned my head back and saw the big SUV in front of me was stopped and I slammed on the brakes and slid into the rear of his SUV. Only a small ding and scratch I seen and my car had the bumper broken, hood bent up, crinkles in side fenders. Even the police could not believe how the car was all damaged at that type speeds and no air bags deployed. Anyway I was told probably I was going too slow and slid into the vehicle in front and maybe there is a certain force to make them blow off. I got a little over $5000 damage. Like the car is as thin as a pop can and no air bags deployed. The body shop when they repair it is going to check the air bag system... I called nissan and they claim a supervisor will be calling me back in a few days... *tr

How far this goes

Complaints are voluntary, so 31 is a floor and not a count of affected cars. Mileages are typed in by owners and cluster on round numbers. And the mode itself is assigned by software reading the complaint text, which is reliable in bulk and fallible one report at a time.

Questions this page answers

At what mileage does other body or interior problem happen on the 2014 Nissan Rogue?

Across 22 owner reports that included an odometer reading, half were filed by 65,000 miles. A quarter were filed before 20,000 miles and a quarter after 95,000 miles. These are the mileages owners reported when they complained, not a prediction for any individual car.

How common is other body or interior problem on the 2014 Nissan Rogue?

31 reports have been filed with NHTSA, about 0.1 per 1,000 vehicles. Complaints are voluntary, so this is a floor rather than a count of affected cars.

What this is and is not. These are the mileages at which owners chose to complain to a federal agency, which is not the same as the mileage at which the part fails on every car. It skews toward failures that happened outside warranty, cost real money, or frightened someone. It is still the only public dataset that carries failure mileage at all, and the shape of a few hundred readings is informative even when a single one is not.
