Breachable Gas Cap by irismg

Just an observation here, and food for thought. I wonder why they made the Rogue, out of all the Nissans, to where you could open the gas filler door from the outside? That's not smart when gas will be over $4 this summer and thefts will be at an all-time high. Versa, Altima, Sentra, and even Murano are not made this way and have unbreachable filler doors. They made the Rogue like a Chevrolet!

That comes to tell you two things; 1-Gashgai design at heart and 2- Nissan has nothing to hide

What's that supposed to mean? Other Nissans are better protected - I don't understand your comment.

Take the train (or drive) to Ardmore, PA (Philadelphia suburb). Lots of Rogues and Murano's in stock and their internet sales guy will do prices at invoice.
 
And no, I'm not an employee doing an advertisment! My wife and I picked up her Rogue last night. I'm like you - all the dealers around where I live (Lancaster, PA) had very little inventory and were not interested in making me a deal. So I drove 70 miles toward Philadelphia. Pleasant guys to work with.
 
My wife's Rogue:
Gotham Gray Rogue SL AWD
  
Splash Guards
Moon Roof
Premium AWD Package
Leather Package
Floor Mats
Rear Bumper Guard
  
Drove it home last night - about 27mpg between philly area and Lancaster, PA. Too bad the rain got it dirty!
 
Here it is parked next to my 4 year old Altima:

I doubt the altima, sentra, versa or murano are more secure. I'm pretty sure a screwdriver will pry the gass door open or off pretty easily.

Three words: Locking Gas Cap.

Followed by these three words:
 
Check Engine Light.
 
 
 
One of the online Nissan dealers stocks a locking gas cap for my Quest so I assume they are out there (or will be), but if the fit isn't quite right, the CEL will go off.

It is possible that since the Rogue was introduced after the European version, the omission of breachable gas cap was a last minute design issue or perhaps parts not evailable from their suppliers. Who Knows!

A recent review in a major new york newspaper spoke at length about a marked and very disconcerting amount of vibration that could be felt through the steering column. Was this just a fluke or do a significant percentage of Rogues have this problem?

This is the only person/review to comment on any vibration. My Rogue is very smooth at all times, the CVT is different during aceleration but I find it to be an improvement over the standard automatics. Particularly if you drive conservatively.
