Hello : I have not noticed road noise from the specific area you mention. However, I have been overall disappointed with the road and wind noise. The Rogue is not a quiet vehicle most of the noise seems to be coming from the back for me. I was considering getting it undercoated to see if this might cut the noise a little. I think this is an area that could use improvement if you’re listening Nissan Engineers ! I might add overall I still think it’s a great vehicle and exceeds my expectations in almost all areas. But I do have some complaints like this noise issue and some others (all minor details).
