THE CVT TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AND BEGINS TO WHINE. , [XXX]. : THANK YOU FOR WRITING ABOUT YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR NISSAN. THE NTSB DOESN'T HANDLE RECALLS AND ASSOCIATED VEHICLE SAFETY ISSUES OF THAT NATURE. HOWEVER, THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION DOES. THEY MAY BE REACHED THROUGH THEIR WEBSITE AT WWW.SAFERCAR.GOV, WHERE YOU WILL FIND COMPLAINT FORMS AND OTHER INFORMATION. [XXX] NTSB ATC INVESTIGATIONS -----ORIGINAL MESSAGE----- FROM: [XXX] [MAILTO:[XXX]] SENT: MONDAY, AUGUST 22, 2016 18:33 TO: TCAS SUBJECT: NISSAN ROUGE SAFETY ISSUE SENT FROM MY IPAD NISSAN SAFETY ISSUE ABOUT THERE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURES. BEFORE FAMILIES ARE KILLED, NISSAN SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS. I OWN A 2012 NISSAN ROUGE THAT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS THE CAR STARTS TO WHINE AND COMPLETELY LOSES POWER. THIS HAPPENED TO ME ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ON THE HIGHWAY AND I THOUGHT L WAS GOING TO GET KILLED TRYING TO GET INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE WITH NO POWER. I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND L WAS JUST LOSING POWER. I HAVE READ ABOUT MANY SIMILAR ISSUES ONLINE. NISSAN CLAIMS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY DEVICE AND WHEN THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS IS GOES INTO SAFE MODE. THIS IS NOT A SAFETY DEVICE, THIS IS GOING TO KILL PEOPLE IF IT HASN'T ALL READY. THE LONGER THE DRIVE AND THE WARMER THE DAY IS WHEN IT HAS MORE POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF POWER. I AM AT THE POINT WHERE I AM AFRAID OF GOING ON ANY LONG DISTANCE DRIVE BECAUSE L FEEL I AM GOING TO LOSS POWER. THIS STARTING HAPPENING AT AROUND 55,000 MILES AND IS GETTING WORSE.THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, AT 70 MPH, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE RPM WENT TO 5000, AND THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DROPPED. I LEFT UP ON THE GAS PEDDLE, AND GRADUALLY PRESSED IT, AND MOVED OVER TO THE BERM; AS THE CAR WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 45 MPH, AT THE HIGHEST; WITHOUT THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING TOO MUCH THAT IT WOULD LOSE SPEED. IT ALSO IT HAD AN ODOR. ONCE I STOPPED AND EVERY THING COOLED, IT SEEMED TO RUN ALRIGHT. THAT WAS A WEEK AGO AND IT STARTED TO DO IT ,BUT NOT AS BAD TODAY; BUT I WAS ON REGULAR HIGHWAY AND DIDN'T TRAVEL NEAR AS FAR. I TOOK IT TO A GARAGE WHEN I LEFT THE INTERSTATE, AND TO THE NISSAN DEALER TODAY; AND BOTH SAID IT WAS A DEFECTIVE CVT TRANSMISSION, BUT WITH 76,000 MILES ON IT, THE DEALER TOLD ME NISSAN WONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT ,

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH ON THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE, THE CAR SUDDENLY DROPPED IN ACCELERATION TO 40MPH. PRESSING ON THE GAS CAUSED THE RPM TO REV, HOWEVER NO CHANGE IN SPEED OCCURRED. UPON INQUIRING ABOUT THIS ISSUE, I CAME TO FIND OUT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN'S CVT COMPONENTS THAT THE COMPANY IS AWARE OF, HOWEVER NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS, SUCH AS HEAT WAVES, USING THE CAR FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME, AND TRAVELING UPHILL HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED TO TRIGGER THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THIS COMMON FLAW FOUND WITH NISSAN CARS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND WILL INEVITABLY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF LIFE.

CVT TRANSMISSION OVER HEATS AND CAUSES ENGINE TO GO INTO LIMP MODE AT TIMES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE OR HILLS WHEN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE 85F. HAS CREATED A DANGEROUS SITUATION IN TRAFFIC WHERE I HAVE HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING TO SLOW LANE. I BELIEVE IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD. CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE NEW. I'VE REPORTED THE PROBLEM MANY TIMES TO DEALERS. CONSUMER AFFAIRS WAS CONTACTED, WITH NO RESOLUTION.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE CAR LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND POWER, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO DROP ITS SPEED TO BELOW 10 MPH. WE WERE UNABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE OFF THE FREEWAY DUE TO LACK OF A SHOULDER, WHEN WE FINALLY WERE ABLE TO GET SAFELY OFF THE FREEWAY, THE CAR SMELLED OF BURNING TRANSMISSION FLUID. AFTER THE CAR SAT FOR 30 MINUTES, WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE A SPEED OF NO MORE THAN 25 MPH TO THE NEAREST TOWN. WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A KNOW CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IN AS WHERE THE TRANSMISSION OIL WAS OVERHEATED CAUSING THE CAR TO GO INTO SAFE MODE. NISSAN ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THE FIX IS TO HAVE A TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER INSTALLED AT A COST OF $1200.00, IN WHICH WE HAVE TO PAY. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE ON THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION SINCE BEFORE 2009. WE WERE ALMOST HIT ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FROM THE REAR BY VEHICLES THAT WERE APPROACHING US AT 60 MPH.

THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR, WHICH APPEARED TO BE A "DOOR DING" THAT HAD OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 8 WEEKS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT INVOLVING THE AIRBAGS. IT WAS PURELY COSMETIC NO REPAIR WAS SOUGHT. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALER AFTER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED.

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED, TO GET TO WORK AND THE MANY DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT THAT I CURRENTLY HAVE (I AM BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR WITH A LOT OF SIDE EFFECTS). WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED I WAS DRIVING LOCALLY WHEN I PUSHED ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR DIDN'T ACCELERATE. IT HAPPENED JUST FOR A MOMENT AND THE CAR DROVE FINE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME SO I HOPED IT WAS ONE TIME THING. A DAY OR TWO LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN, TELLING ME THAT THE FIRST OCCURRENCE WASN'T RANDOM. THAT'S WHEN I RESEARCHED THE SYMPTOMS AND SAW I WASN'T ALONE. THAT'S WHEN I ALSO LEARNED THAT NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY. I FOUND OUT I WAS OVER THE MILEAGE, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY I BALKED BECAUSE I KNEW OF THE MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE/HAD THIS PROBLEM AND I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A MECHANICALLY DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. IN THE MEANTIME I'M GENTLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE: SHORT TRIPS, NO HIGHWAYS AND 40 MPH OR LESS. IF WHAT I READ IS TRUE AND THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION (WHICH HAPPENED A THIRD TIME WITHIN JULY) IS THE CAR GOING INTO SAFE MODE THEN I'LL DO WHAT I CAN TO AVOID AGGRAVATING THE VEHICLE UNTIL I TAKE IT IN FOR THE NEW TRANNY COOLER. I REALLY HOPE THIS RESOLVES MY PROBLEM. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THE CVT I FOUND OUT THAT THEY ARE KNOWN FOR THEIR ISSUES AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WENT INTO PLACE. OF COURSE I AM OVER BY 30,000 BUT I SAW THAT IF YOU ARE OVER YOU SHOULD STILL CONTACT NISSAN. I DID AND STARTED A CLAIM GOT A CALL BACK FROM THE MIDWEST CORPORATE GAY WHO TOLD ME TOO BAD WE CAN NOT HELP. I NEED HELP

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY 2010 NISSAN ROGUE WILL LOSE POWER. I HAVE TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR DECELERATES; THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I CAN DO. THE LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED 8/11/2016. I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 75MPH; ON A HIGHWAY WHICH IS FLAT AND THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST POWER; SPEED WENT DOWN TO ABOUT 60 MPH. FINALLY REGAINED SPEED ON FLAT STRETCH OF ROAD BUT EVERY TIME WE HIT A SLIGHT INCLINE WE WOULD LOSE POWER. I WAS USING THE CRUISE CONTROL AND WHEN THIS HAPPENED IT WOULD JUST DECELERATE COMPLETELY. IT DID IT SPORADICALLY. AFTER I STOPPED AND THEN RESTARTED THE CAR AND PROCEEDED AGAIN, IT SEEMED BETTER FOR A SHORT TIME; THEN IT WOULD START UP AGAIN. IT'S VERY SCARY AND EVERYONE WAS PASSING US.....INCLUDING OTHER NISSAN ROGUES AND SOME TINY CARS?? THIS IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS A RECALL!! PLEASE HELP!
