FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THIS CAR SLOWED DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER FROM WHICH I PURCHASED THE CAR THERE IS AN APPARENT PROBLEM WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION WHEN IT OVER HEATS, IT SHUTS DOWN AND WILL NOT ALLOW ACCELERATION. THIS IS ALSO STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, BUT IS NOT APPARENTLY VIEWED AS A SAFETY ISSUE. ( DON'T AGREE), BUT IT SEEMS SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE TO BE INJURED OR DIE IN ORDER FOR NISSAN TO RECALL THESE TRANSMISSION'S, THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE LATEST BEING LAST FRIDAY 05/21/2005 WHEN I WAS STOPPED FOR RED LIGHT AND COULD NOT GET THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE.

I WAS MADE CHECK BY A MECHANIC AND HE SAID IS THE DRIVE SHAFT AND U JOINT IS COMPLETELY COVERED IS RUST WITH THE DRIVE SHAFT AND CAN BROKE IN ANY MOMENT AND THE I HAVE TO REPAIR NOT ONLY THAT OTHER PARTS TOO LIKE THE TRANSMISSION, DIRECTIONAL AND SO ON. I WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER PART SERVICE AND THE PERSON WHO WORK THERE HE SAID THAT PART IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND FOR THE LOW OF MILEAGE SHOULDN'T HAPPENED. IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE IS A FAULT OF NISSAN ON A BAD PARTS THAT THEY INSTALL ON MY TRUCK. THEY NEED TO MAKE A RECALL AND FIX THIS BIG PROBLEM IN THE SAME WAY THEY CHARGE FOR THE TRUCK AND WE PAID, THEY NEED TO REPLACE AT NOT COST IS THERE RESPONSIBILITY FOR USE BAD PARTS AND THIS IS URGENT I DON'T WANTS MY MOTHER, MY NEPHEW (3 Y) AND MY NICE (2 Y) GET INTO AN ACCIDENT AND MYSELF PLEASE HELP ME THIS IS URGENT TO BRING MY CAR FOR REPAIR.

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION FROZE, NO FORWARD GEAR, NO REVERSE GEAR. LUCKILY IT HAPPENED WHEN PULLING INTO THE COALFIELD REST STOP NORTHBOUND ON I-55. AS I SLOWED TO PULL OFF ON THE EXIT RAMP, THE ROGUE JERKED TWICE AND CAME TO SUDDEN STOP. WITH THE TRANSMISSION LOCKING UP IT MAY HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF I WERE TO BE ON THE INTERSTATE (I-55 NORTHBOUND) AT APPROXIMATELY 6:30PM ON MAY 14, 2015. TRAFFIC AT THE TIME WAS AVERAGE BUT STEADY IN FLOW.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING A HIGHWAY ON 65 MPH SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION OCCURS. PRESSING THE ACCELERATION PEDAL DOES NOT MAKE ANY EFFECT ON A CAR SPEED. RPM FALLS TO 1-2K AND DID NOT GOES UP. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND STOP. AFTER 15 MINUTES WITH THE ENGINE TURNED OFF, PROBLEM DISAPPEARS. THIS HAPPENED FOR THE THIRD TIME, AS A PREVIOUSLY,IT OCCURS AFTER A LONG DRIVE (MORE THAN 3 HOURS) OR ON A HIGH SPEED (MORE THAN 75 MPH). IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN A CAR DECELERATED FROM 65 TO 30 MPH ON A HIGHWAY.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WIFE TURNING LEFT AT STOP LIGHT. STEPPED ON GAS PEDAL AND VERY LITTLE ACCELERATION, ALMOST T-BONED. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, AND WITH NO WARNING. I WAS DRIVING TO THE DEALER AND IT HAPPENED TO ME. STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT AND THEN THE PROBLEM WAS GONE. THE DEALER SAID THE BREAK SWITCH WAS THE PROBLEM. I DECLINED REPAIRS BECAUSE EVERY TIME I TAKE THE ROGUE TO CHECK AND REPAIRS SOMETHING ELSE NEED FIXING. I WILL TAKE FOR REPAIRS TO A AAA REPAIR SHOP NEAR MY HOME. WONDERING IF OTHER NISSAN ROGUE OWNER HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. THE SCARY THING IS THAT THERE IS NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH AND NO WARNING AT ALL. THANKS YOU.

AIR BAGS
THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATES "OFF" EVEN WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CONSTANTLY FLASHING IN DASH. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ONE IN THIS MODEL YEAR VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED UNDER SAFETY RECALL THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP. IT WOULD BE A VERY SAD DAY WHEN SOMEONE HAS AN ACCIDENT / CRASH AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT DEPLOY, POTENTIALLY CAUSING INJURY OR EVEN DEATH! *TR

AIR BAGS
MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. OUT OF NOWHERE MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH, I BROUGHT IT IN TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT IT WAS THE AIRBAG SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT HE WAS UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AS IT TAKES CERTAIN PROGRAMMING TO MAKE THE AIRBAGS WORK APPROPRIATELY. I THEN BROUGHT MY CAR IN TO A NISSAN DEALER WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $200 TO HOOK THEIR MACHINE US TO READ THE CODE TO EVEN BEGIN THE DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS I'VE BEEN TOLD THEM THAT THIS IS REPORTED ON LINE TIME AFTER TIME AGAIN SPECIFICALLY ON THE 2008 AND 2009 MODELS AND I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO HOOK UP A MACHINE TO READ THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE IN WHICH I HAD IN MY HAND. AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH ONLINE I HAVE HAD NUMBERS BETWEEN $300 AND $2,000 BE QUOTED FOR THIS PART TO FIX THE ISSUE AND ACCORDING TO MOST OF THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE SAID THEY PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED AT SOME POINT THEY CAME BACK AND REISSUED NEW COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME FORM THAT IT DOES HAPPEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. HOW IS NISSAN NOT FIXING AN ISSUE THAT MAKES THEIR AIRBAGS DISFUNCTIONAL AND NOT DEPLOY? I GUESS IT TAKES SOME DEATH AND A LAWSUIT BEFORE IT WILL GET DONE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME AND SINCE THEN IT HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOT BEEN ON AT ALL IT RANDOMLY OCCURS. IT SEEMS THAT IT WOULD BE AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION FOR A VEHICLE TO HESITATE IN REGARDS TO ACCELERATION. IT IS ANYWHERE FROM A 2-10 SECOND DELAY. I HAVE JUST LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG MANY OWNERS OF THE NISSAN ROGUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR WORSE DEAD. I AM SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE BUT WHEN I AM MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO TRAFFIC AND I'M MET WITH VEHICLES COMING TOWARDS ME AS MY VEHICLE HESITATES TO ACCELERATE I WOULD DEFINITELY CONSIDER THIS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE FOR BOTH ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS SITUATION. THE HANDLE ON THE PASSENGER DOOR FREEZES OR IT SPRUNG, INSIDE THE HANDLE ITSELF. WE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FIXED 3 TIMES NOW SINCE 2013, IF YOU CHECK THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF 2009/2010 NISSAN ROGUES THAT HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE WHY? WE WERE TOLD BY A PERSON AT ONE OF THE NISSAN DEALERSHIPS THAT THERE APPEARS TO BE WEAKNESS IN THE HANDLES MECHANISM. THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS SHOULD THERE BE A FIRE, ACCIDENT ETC, AND SOMEONE NEEDED TO GET A PERSON OUT OF THAT SIDE OF THE CAR. AS IT IS NOW YOU CAN NOT OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE! MY HUSBAND HAS HAD IT FIXED 3 TIMES AND WE FEEL THIS HAS GOT TO BE A RECALL ISSUE DUE TO THE RECURRENCE OF THE HANDLE BREAKING OVER AND OVER. NOT TO MENTION SO MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IT IS MY CONTENTION THAT IT SHOULD BE FIXED BY NISSAN AND NOT PAID FOR BY US THIS TIME. YOUR SPEED IN HANDLING THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE APPRECIATED. *TR

DOOR LOCK FROZE TO DUE THE COLD WEATHER. NISSAN ROGUE WAS IN A GARAGE WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED THE LAST 3 YEARS AND NISSAN HAS ALWAYS FIXED THE PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THAT THE COST OF REPAIR WILL BE $800. I WILL NEVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN AND THEY HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE OF ANY MAJOR CAR COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. *TR
