My 2017 Nissan Rogue has been jerking, lurching, and there are times when the accelerator is depressed but the car does not accelerate at all It is extremely dangerous. Nissan has confirmed that the CVT has failed. This seems to be an ongoing issue with many of their vehicles and it doesn’t not feel like adequate action is being taken to remedy this.

It seems the 2017 Nissan Rogue, as well as almost all other years of that make/model have a defect in the drainage system for the sunroof. The drain lines clog which leads to water accumulating significantly under the floor of the car. The initial indicator of this is a wet floor, not that big a deal. However, the water cannot drain at all from under the floorboard so it remains wet, which leads to mold and mildew. it also can lead to rusting the connections of the front seats with the floor board that quickly rots since it is permanently soaking wet. The health issues of breathing in moldy air in an enclosed vehicle are significant and the rotting floorboards that can lead to a seat being dislodged are also concerning. There are numerous examples of this online. The dealer is aware of the problem but does not believe it is their problem to address. Nissan and the dealer feel it is a maintenance issue where the car owner must clean out the drain tubes twice a year. There is nothing in the owners manual indicating this is a requirement or a necessity. Warranty will not cover it since they feel it is a maintenance issue.

I began to notice issues with my 2017 Nissan Rogue as I was driving down the road and all of a sudden, the car seemed to have lost power and wouldn't accelerate. I took it to my local garage, where I was told the CVT transmission went out and needed replaced. He recommended I speak to Nissan to see if they would help pay for the repair, since it's a common problem, less than 4 years old and only 72,000 miles. Nissan recommended I take it to the nearest dealership so they could diagnose it, then possibly help pay with the goodwill assistance program. I called the dealership and also sent a request for a call back online. I never received a call back. I contacted Nissan's Consumer Affairs department, who said they would contact the dealership. It took the dealership about a week to return my call. When they did, they scheduled an appointment for the following Tuesday. I had the car towed Monday evening and when I hadn't heard back by the end of the week, I called and left a message. They finally called back a week later and said the tests they ran come back to a failed CVT transmission. At that point, Nissan could finally review my case to hopefully offer assistance. Another week later, I received a call that they would not help with the repairs, towing fees or rental car fees. I have had to rent a car for 5 weeks now, because of them dragging their feet. So now I will be out $129 for the diagnostic test, when we already knew the problem, approximately $2,000 for the rental car and over $4,000 for a new transmission. I also would have to pay $5 per mile over 3 miles at 22 miles, so another $95 for towing back to the original garage.

Driving out of a stopped position - after being stopped at a red light on an inclined hill - the car felt like it was stuck in the neutral position even though it was in drive. I pulled over to the side of the road, shifted the gear from drive to park and back to drive, drove back into traffic, and the car again felt like the transmission was in the neutral driving position. I pulled over a second time, put the car in park, turned the car off and then back on, put the car into drive, and the transmission shifted smoothly between gears.

- #11421431June 18, 2021SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
My car brakes locked up for no reason as I was driving. I’ve called Nissan they did a “reset” on the braking system while I was under warranty. The car continues to flash malfunction and front radar disabled. My car beeps all the time on the road for zero reason. Now my cars warranty is out by a few miles and the refuse to fix it. This is a safety issue. I’m terrified of wrecking and they will not fix it without 1300.00. Called home office they won’t budge. This isn’t my fault the car has done this since I bought it. It’s not safe and I fear of causing a wreck when the brakes lock up again. They would rather me wreck than fix my car under the warranty. I have powers when they rest it when under the 60 days time frame but it didn’t fix the problem. Now I’m stuck with a huge bill on a car I bought to be safe in. Please help there needs to be a recall. After researching I see this is a common issue that Nissan refuses to fix. How many die before it’s corrected. This is a safety issue. Not a brush it off sort of problem. This could kill someone. Bought 01/2020 issues began 02-2020 and are still happening.

The vehicle does not shift gears when attempting to accelerate. The RPMs increase but the speed is sluggish to accelerate. The struggle of the engine is audible from inside the car like the sound of revving of an engine. No warning signs or messages have been associated with the problem. The problem does not happen every time the car is used but has occurred on several different occasions. The car is available for inspection upon request. This problem is dangerous to the driver, passengers, and other drivers on the road as well, because it disrupts the flow of traffic when attempting to merge onto the highway. Many people are forced to slam on their breaks to avoid rear ending the vehicle when it does not accelerate.

My 2017 Nissan Rogue has 39,000 miles on it, after I bought out my lease a few months ago I noticed in warmer weather and when the engine and transmission are good and hot, I am having trouble accelerating. I do hot highway driving and longer city driving once we start having to do traffic lights and or stop signs I have noticed that my car will not accelerate, I push the gas petal to the floor and it will barely move, and the transmission makes noise and will not shift. I have to pull over and let it cool for a bit in order to get moving again. I have taken it in for service twice and they cannot get this to replicate and have told me there is nothing wrong with my car. This last time I picked it up after they had it for two days and it occured the very next day. No warning lamps lights or messages appear when this occurs. I feel this is a very big safety issue, if I do not get going at the proper speed at a light or stop sign I may get rear ended. It concerns me that they cannot seem to find what is wrong as it continues to repeat over and over again.

- #11417648May 18, 2021FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Driving on the highway about 65M mph, the forward emergency system (FEB), read an error message. Immediately the engine brake was activated causing the car to brake. I pulled over in the highway and turn off the engine, ERROR message for the FEB was not showing anymore. However few hours (2 hours) later, the FEB error message displayed again, causing the brake engine to kick in and stop the car. At the red light, when i push the gas to start, the RPM will go up to 6000 and the car won't move. Drivers behind me are at risk to slam my car rear end, because of the sudden braking from the FEB error.

THE PROBLEM THAT OCCURRED, WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPS SLOWING MY CAR DOWN IN FRONT OF A BIG TRUCK WHILE MY KIDS ARE IN THE THERE. THAT IS NOT SAFE AT ALL, SO I TAKE IT TO A SHOP WHO TELLS ME IT NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION. GETS NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN THERE AND NOT EVEN A GOOD TWO WEEKS LATER IT IS DOING IT AGAIN. SO I GO AND RESEARCH AND SEE THAT THIS IS A BIG ISSUE AND NISSAN HAS NOT DID A RECALL ON IT YET. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING ON, TO HARM A WHOLE FAMILY. THEY NEED TO GET THEIR STUFF TOGETHER.
