I PURCHASED A CAR FROM GWINNETT PLACE NISSAN IN NOVEMBER 2013. IN MAY OF 2014 WHILE DRIVING MY CHILDREN TO DISNEY THE CAR STARTED TO DECREASE IN SPEED. I WAS DRIVING AT 75 MPH AND WITHOUT WARNING THE CAR STARTED DECREASING IN SPEED. MY CAR WENT FROM 75 TO 40 IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. ALTHOUGH I HAD THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, IT WOULDN'T PICK UP ANY SPEED. THANK GOD THERE WASN'T ANY ACCIDENT. I'VE SPOKEN TO NISSAN ABOUT THIS MANY TIMES AND NO ONE SEEMS TO BE HANDLING THIS PROBLEM. WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR NISSAN TO RECOGNIZE AND FIX THIS ISSUE. A FATAL ACCIDENT? *TR

AFTER DRIVING 45 MINUTES ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND PULLED INTO A STATE HIGHWAY TO CONTINUE MY TRIP. AFTER PROCEEDING FROM THE STOP SIGN AT THE OFF RAMP, I WAS NEARLY IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. I PLACED THE ACCELERATION PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER TO CLEAR THE INTERSECTION. ONCOMING TRAFFIC HAD TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES I. ORDER TO AVOID A COLLISION. IT IS NOT SAFE TO HAVE A VEHICLE DOING THAT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL OTHER TIMES. *TR

AS MY SON AND I WENT ON A DAY TRIP WITH MY SISTER AND NIECES TO THE OCEAN MY CAR DECREASED SPEED FROM 75 MPH TO 30 REAL QUICK PEOPLE BEHIND US SWERVED OFF OF THE ROAD AVOIDING HITTING US. I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT EVEN ACCELERATE. I HAD TO STOP AT A GAS STATION SO I COULD CALL SOMEONE TO LET THEM KNOW OF THE CAR PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING. I TOOK BACK ROADS HOME BECAUSE I DID NOT FEEL THE CAR IS SAFE FOR US. I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT IT IS DOING THIS AS I HAVE ONLY HAD IT SINCE 2010. *TR

THE DETAILS OF THIS COMPLAINT ARE FILED UNDER NHTSA COMPLAINT #10614462. ON 7/16/2014 THE UJOINT ON MY 2010 NISSAN ROGUE SHEARED OFF THE DRIVESHAFT DROPPING THE DRIVESHAFT AND PULLING OUT THE SHIFTER CABLE. REPAIRS WERE $1400. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT NISSAN I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE I DID NOT SERVICE MY VEHICLE AT A NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD NOT OFFER ANY GOOD WILL ASSISTANCE. THEY STATED THAT ALL RECOMMENDED SERVICE WOULD HAVE HAD TO HAVE BEEN PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP IN ORDER FOR ANY OUT OF WARRANTY ASSISTANCE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING OUR NISSAN ROGUE ON THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO DECELERATE EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR FULLY ENGAGED. OUR VEHICLE HAS GONE FROM 70MPH TO 10MPH ON THE HIGHWAY SEVERAL TIMES. THERE IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING US WE NEED TO DO A FULL TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH ON THE VEHICLE EVERY YEAR. WE PAID TO HAVE THIS DONE IN AUGUST OF 2013 WHEN IT FIRST STARTED HAPPENING AND IT STILL CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. WE ARE SCARED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS IT SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS TO GO FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS TO BARELY BEING ABLE TO ROLL INTO A PARKING LONG WITHIN A MATTER OF MINUTES. *TR

THE VEHICLE HESITATES WHILE IN REVERSE AND ALSO IN DRIVE WHEN ACCELERATING CAUSING A DELAY WITHIN THE TRAFFIC INTERSECTIONS AND WHILE DRIVING ON HILLS. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND CODES AND UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. IT HAPPENS WHEN ENGINE IS WARM GOES AWAY AFTER COOLING DOWN. *TR

FIRST OFF, THERE WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT...BUT THERE SURELY WOULD BE IF THIS CAR WERE TO BE DRIVEN IN ITS PRESENT STATE. ESSENTIALLY, CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE CVT (TRANSMISSION), SO THAT, WHEN SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT, STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR WOULD RESULT IN INCREASE IN RPM BUT NO FORWARD MOTION AT FIRST. IT MIGHT EVENTUALLY ENGAGE, BUT OPERATION IS TOTALLY UNPREDICTABLE. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE AND NISSAN DID DOUBLE THE WARRANTY THEY FAILED TO NOTIFY OWNERS CLAIMING THAT BECAUSE IT WASN'T A RECALL, IT WAS NOT REQUIRED. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY 10,000 MILES OUTSIDE THE *NEW* WARRANTY MILEAGE LIMIT, BUT HAD OWNER BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT THIS IMPENDING FAILURE, REPAIRS COULD HAVE BEEN EFFECTED INSIDE THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NISSAN HAS DECLINED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE WHATSOEVER, BUT DOES HOPE THAT WE HAVE "A NICE DAY". WILL IT TAKE LOSS OF LIFE OR LIMB FOR NISSAN TO "DO THE RIGHT THING"? *TR

AFTER DRIVING FOR SEVERAL HOURS AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE CAR LOSES POWER GOING UP SLIGHT HILLS. THE SPEED DROPS FROM 70 MPH TO 40 MPH WITH THE GAS PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED. WHEN I EXITED THE HIGHWAY TO PAY THE TOLL THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AFTER GOING THROUGH THE TOLL BOTH. AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD AND STARTED TO GET UP TO SPEED . AT THE NEXT HILL IT LOST POWER AGAIN GOING UP THE HILL. THIS CAR IS BEING DRIVEN IN CONNECTICUT SO IT'S NOT BEING DRIVEN OVER MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I ALL OF A SUDDEN HEARD A LOUD SMASHING SOUND. THE CAR SEIZED UP AND THE WHEELS LOCKED. THANKFULLY I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!! THE CAR WAS TOWED AND THE DIAGNOSES INDICATED THAT THE U JOINT HAD SHEARED OFF THE DRIVE SHAFT AND PULLED OUT THE SHIFTER CABLE. THE ENTIRE DRIVE SHAFT AND SHIFTER CABLE NEEDED TO REPLACED AT A COST OF 1400$. THE CAR WAS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD AND IS REGULARLY MAINTAINED. IN FACT DURING THE MONTH OF JUNE THE CAR HAD BEEN TO INSKIP NISSAN FOR A OIL CHANGE AND MULTI POINT INSPECTION AND TO A LOCAL GARAGE FOR A STATE OF RI SAFETY AND EMISSIONS INSPECTION. *TR

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I STOPPED THE VEHICLE WITH THE SHIFT LEVER IN DRIVE. WHEN I TRIED TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE TO BACK UP I COULD GET NO FARTHER THAN NEUTRAL. THE RELEASE BUTTON ON THE SHIFT LEVER WOULD NOT MOVE. I COULD NOT GET INTO REVERSE OR PARK. I MANAGED TO GET THE COVER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SHIFT LEVER OFF AND A BROKEN PIECE OF GRAY PLASTIC FELL OUT. THE SHIFT LEVER RELEASE BUTTON THEN WORKED AND I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE AND INTO PARK. I HAVE DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO MORE PROBLEMS. NOT BEING ABLE TO GET INTO REVERSE IN A TIMELY MANNER COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS SITUATION TO DEVELOP. I SAVED THE BROKEN PIECE OF PLASTIC THAT JAMMED THE RELEASE LEVER. *JS

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. THE FIRST 4-5 TIMES THIS HAPPENED THE POWER LOSS WAS FROM 75 TO 55-60 OR SO MPH AND IF THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED IT RESET. THE LAST TIME IT WOULD GO AROUND 70 DOWNHILL BUT ONLY 20-30 UPHILL AND IT WOULD NOT RESET UPON RESTART. AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES IT FINALLY RESET. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED SLOWING DOWN. WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE RPM'S REVVED INTO THE RED AND THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD WHINING SOUND AND CONTINUED TO SLOW DOWN. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. TRIED TO ACCELERATE BY PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE BARELY COASTED. STOPPED AND TURNED VEHICLE OFF. AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES, I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND IT RAN FINE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE MOVING. IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS THERE HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 8 INSTANCES WHERE WHILE I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT OR WAITING TO TURN LEFT, I WOULD PUSH DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR TO GO AND THE CAR WOULD BARELY START TO COAST WITH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. I'M AFRAID THAT I'M GOING TO BE T-BONED WHILE TURNING BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF WHEN I PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL IF I'LL GO OR COAST INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. *TR

MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE RETURNING HOME DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HWY WHEN CAR SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY LOSS ACCELERATION IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE, GOING FROM 75-80 MPH TO 50-60 MPH WITHIN A MINUTE CAUSING BRAKING AND SWERVING OF CARS BEHIND US BECAUSE WE WERE IN LEFT LANE AND COULD NOT GET OVER. SEEMED TO OCCUR ON UPWARD INCLINE OF ROAD. TOOK CAR TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP BECAUSE WARRANTY IS STILL IN EFFECT, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEIR DIAGNOSES SHOWED NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME HE KNEW OF SOME PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSIONS, BUT COULD NOT MAKE REPAIRS UNLESS CORPORATE NISSAN REIMBURSED THEM. I WAS BASICALLY TOLD TO DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL IT "BROKE' AND THEN THEY COULD FIX IT. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE CAR ON INTERSTATE NOW- FEAR DEADLY CRASH. *TR

IS NISSAN THE NEXT TOYOTA?? WE WERE PULLING OUT OF A SHOPPING CENTER AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO PROPERLY ACCELERATE. THE GAS PEDAL WAS PUSHED TO THE FLOOR, ACCELERATION WAS AT MINIMUM AND THE RPMS REVVED UP EXTREMELY HIGH. THANK GOODNESS NO ONE HIT US. FINALLY, THE GEAR CAUGHT AND ALL WAS WELL. IT SEEMED LIKE THE TRANSMISSION MAY HAVE SLIPPED. THEN WE GOT TO MY PARENTS' HOME AND PARKED. THEN WE WENT TO MOVE OUT OF PARK AND THE GEARS WOULDN'T CHANGE (AUTOMATIC CVT TRANSMISSION). WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST CERTIFIED NISSAN REPAIR FACILITY. IN THE MEANWHILE, I LOCATED INFORMATION ON NISSAN'S WEBSITE REGARDING THE WARRANTY ON THE TRANSMISSION AND FOUND THAT NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FROM 5 YEARS/60,000 MILES TO 10 YEARS/120,000 MILES FOR 'CUSTOMER SATISFACTION' PURPOSES AND HERE IS THE INFORMATION ABOUT THAT HTTP://WWW.NISSANASSIST.COM/WEB/CVT/PROGRAMDETAILS.PHP?MENU=9 AND THE VEHICLES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE ISSUE ARE LOCATED HERE HTTP://WWW.NISSANASSIST.COM/WEB/CVT/VEHICLES.PHP?MENU=11 SO THE DEALERSHIP CALLS US ON JUNE 23 TO ADVISE THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND THE PROBLEM WITH GETTING THE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK WAS AN ELECTRONIC ISSUE. I AM NOT A MECHANIC BUT IT DOES SEEM STRANGE THAT WE WOULD HAVE EXPERIENCED THE FIRST ISSUE, THEN THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T COME OUT OF PARK? I SPOKE WITH REGIONAL SPECIALISTS AT NISSAN NORTH AMERICA AND WAS TOLD THAT IF THE MECHANICS CANNOT REPLICATE, THEN NO REPAIR WILL BE AUTHORIZED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND THAT THE LIKELY CAUSE OF MY ISSUE WAS DIRTY TRANSMISSION FLUID. I FEEL THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF YOU PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, EXPECTING YOUR VEHICLE TO GO AND IT DOESN'T, SOMEONE IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED! *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I STARTED MY ROGUE AND LEFT A DRIVEWAY AS I APPROACHED A STOP SIGN ABOUT 2 MILES AHEAD THE CAR STALLED. I WAS STILL IN GEAR, THE ENGINE WAS OFF, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. AFTER STOPPING I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AFTER A FEW TRIES. THEN, FOR THE NEXT 2-4 MILES IT REVVED REALLY HIGH AND SEEM TO BE IN A RECOVER MODE AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO GO OVER 40 MPH. THE SERVICE CENTER CAN'T REPLICATE AND CLAIMS THAT THE OIL WAS OVERFILLED. THERE WERE SOME CODES BUT THEY DIDN'T FEEL THOSE APPLIES TO THE INCIDENT THEREFORE THIS ISSUE ISN'T WARRANTED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN FOR MYSELF, MY FAMILY, AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD THAT NISSAN REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR REMEDY. THE FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED.

WHEN DRIVING THIS CAR LONG DISTANCES ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE FOR A WHILE THEN IT TAKES OFF. MY DAUGHTER AND I BOTH HAVE A ROGUE. HERS IS A 2008 AND MINE IS A 2010 THEY BOTH DO THE SAME THING. HERS IS WORSE THEN MINE. SHE HAD TO SIT THROUGH A ENTIRE GREEN LIGHT AND HALF OF ANOTHER ONE BEFORE THE CAR DECIDED TO MOVE. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO TAKE OFF AND COULD TAKE OFF IN FRONT OF ON COMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE READ STATEMENTS OF OTHER OWNERS OF ROGUES THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT. UNLESS THEY TAKE THE CAR ON A LONG TRIP DOWN THE INTERSTATE THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO DUPLICATE IT. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS CAR BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *TR

AS WE ACCELERATED THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK. AFTER A FEW MILES THE CAR SLOWED DOWN IN SPEED AND WOULD NOT GO PASSED 40MPH. THE CAR WAS SET TO 70MPH ON CRUISE CONTROL THEN IT DROPPED SPEED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE CAUSING ME TO GET OFF OF HIGHWAY RIGHT AWAY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED.
