What's wrong, in plain English
These Rogues are built with the three-cylinder 1.5-liter VC-Turbo engine. The electronic throttle body is the part that controls how much air reaches the engine when you press the accelerator, and inside it are small gears. Nissan says those gears can break. Dealers will reprogram the engine control software and will inspect the electronic throttle body assembly, replacing it if replacement is needed.
What you should do
2. Contact a Nissan dealer to have the engine control software reprogrammed and the throttle body inspected; Nissan customer service is 800-647-7261 (Nissan's recall numbers are R25E2, R25E3 and R25A9).
