DRIVING MY ROGUE AT 45MPH ON 10/13/2017. DECELERATED TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. THEN ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE AFTER THE TURN. THE ROGUE JERKED AND DECELERATED AND TURNED OFF. I STEERED THE CAR TO THE SOFT SHOULDER. ATTEMPTED TO START ROGUE. STARTED BUT THEN STALLED. IT EVENTUALLY STARTED AFTER SITTING BY ROAD FOR 5 MINUTES. NO PROBLEMS WITH ROGUE UNTIL 10/20/2017. WAS DRIVING AT 55 MPH WITH A SEMI BEHIND ME ON 2 LANE HIGHWAY. THE ROGUE STARTS TO DECELERATE AND JERKING. I PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN ENOUGH TIME NOT TO BE HIT BY THE SEMI. ROGUE TOTALLY STOPPED WORKING. I GOT IT RESTARTED AND DROVE HOME AT 40 MPH. CALLED AND GOT A REPAIR APPOINTMENT ON 10/24/17. IT WAS A MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR THAT WAS BROKEN.

HALF WAY INTO A 4 HOUR TRIP HOME FROM THE BEACH, ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, OUR 2013 NISSAN ROGUE EXPERIENCED LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THE TEMPERATURE THIS DAY WAS PROBABLY AROUND 85 DEGREES. WE HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT AN AVERAGE SPEED OF 70-75 MPH. WITH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, IT WOULD NOT GO OVER 60 MPH, AND WOULD START TO DECELERATE EVEN FURTHER GOING UP HILLS. WE DECIDED TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RAMP, WHILE TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, THE CAR WOULD ONLY GO ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR. WE WERE AFRAID WE WOULD BE HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE WE COULD GET PULLED OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. WE PULLED INTO A TRAVEL PLAZA, FILLED THE CAR WITH GAS, AND GOT LUNCH. TWENTY MINUTES LATER WE STARTED UP THE CAR AND IT APPEARED TO ACT NORMALLY, SO WE DECIDED TO CONTINUE WITH OUR TRIP. THIS WAS APPROXIMATELY 6 WEEKS AGO AND IT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE. THERE IS A LOUD WHINING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE THAT APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRAVELING ON A LARGE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEED.

"TAKATA RECALL" THIS COMPLAINT IS CONCERNING THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL BODY VALVE AND COOLER KIT ASSY. AFTER CHECKING OTHER SITES AND TALKING WITH THE COMPANY THAT WARRANT MY CAR I DISCOVER THAT NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND BECAUSE IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE NISSAN REFUSE TO DO A RECALL. OTHER OWNER HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM OF ONE SIMILAR TO IT, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY CAR LOOSE POWER. I READ ON ONE OF THE INVESTIGATION SITE THAT NO COMPANY WILL WARRANT THE CVT TRANSMISSION BY NISSAN.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THERE IS A KNOWN DEFAULT WITH THE YEAR AND MAKE OF VEHICLE I OWN, YET NISSAN HAS FAILED TO ISSUE A RECALL, EVEN THOUGH IT COULD RESULT IN DEATH. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR 1.5 HOURS OR MORE AT SPEEDS OF 65 MPH OR GREATER, THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS, AND CAUSES YOU TO LOSE ACCELERATION AND POWER. I LOST POWER ON THE PARKWAY, WAS UNABLE TO MOVE FROM THE RIGHT LANE, I COULDN'T EVEN MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER BEFORE LOSING ALL ABILITY TO ACCELERATE MY VEHICLE. NISSAN RECOMMENDS ADDING AN EXTERNAL PART TO THE TRANSMISSION TO COOL THE TRANSMISSION FLUID, BUT THE PART IS MORE THAN $700. I WOULD THINK THAT THIS ISSUE WOULD BE VERY SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE WITH THE CHRYSLER IGNITION SWITCHES. IF I AM DRIVING MY CAR 70 MPH OR MORE ON THE INTERSTATE, AND SUDDENLY LOSE POWER, I AM LIKELY GOING TO GET HIT, AND IF THE OTHER VEHICLES ARE TRAVELING 70 MPH OR MORE, THAT IS GOING TO CAUSE VERY SERIOUS INJURIES AT THE VERY LEAST. THERE ARE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS KNOWN ISSUE ON NISSAN FORUMS.

I THEN SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT (10.19.17) WITH ACTION NISSAN HERE IS NASHVILLE, TN WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS AN AIRBAG SPRING MALFUNCTION WHICH WILL NOT ALLOW THE AIRBAG TO PROPERLY DEPLOY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON AND OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOUCHER NISSAN OF WAUKESHA (1451 E MORELAND BLVD, WAUKESHA, WI 53186 (262) 542-5500) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED TO COVER HALF OF THE REPAIR COST; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REMAINING BALANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 5 FREEWAY. LISTENING TO MUSIC. ALL OF A SUDDEN I START HEARING A WHISTLING, AND WHINING SOUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE RADIO SO I TURNED IT DOWN. IT'S MY CAR MAKING THAT NOISE. SO I START TO PULL OVER AND I HAVE NO POWER. IT BARELY GETS OFF THE FREEWAY WITHIN 5 MINS OF ME HEARING THE NOISE MY CAR IS SMOKING. I'M WITH MY SON. THERE WAS NO WARNING OR ANYTHING IT JUST HAPPENED. I HAVE MY OIL CHANGES ON TIME. I HAD ON THE DAY BEFORE. THEN THIS HAPPENS

CVT TRANSMISSION. ONE OWNER COMEPLETES ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR MAKES A WHINING NOISE, LOSES POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS CAUSED SEMIS TO GRID LOCK I MOVED OFF ROAD TO AVOID GETTING HIT AND CAUSING A MULTI CAR PILE UP. I LOOK UP AND SEE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME NATURE BY THE 100'S AND SADLY NISSAN ISN'T WILLING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WITH THE CVT ON LATER MODELS BUT EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON PREVIOUS MODELS WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GO ONLINE AND READ CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT VARIOUS NISSAN TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I CAN TELL YOU FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE THAT PEOPLE CAN GET HURT OR KILLED IN THESE VEHICLES. THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE AUTOS OVERHEAT AND WHEN THIS HAPPENS ACCELERATION DECLINES. PEDAL TO THE METAL YOU ARE DRIVING 50 MPH ON THE EXPRESSWAY. CARS ARE BLOWING HORNS. FINALLY THE TRANNY JUST GOES COMPLETELY OUT. TRY BEING IN THE CENTER LANE ON I 75 COASTING ABRUPTLY TO A CRAWL AND TRYING TO MOVE OVER WITHOUT GETTING HIT BY CARS DRIVING 70 MPH OR MORE. I ALMOST CAUSED A MAJOR PILEUP WHILE FIGHTING TO GET OFF ROAD. READ OTHER HORROR STORIES ONLINE. I HAVE OWNED ALL TYPES VEHICLES IN MY 64 YEARS BUT I HAVE NEVER FELT LIKE MY LIFE WAS THREATENED BECAUSE OF MECHANICAL ISSUES. THIS IS NOT A SAFE CAR. SOME OWNERS HAVE INSTALLED TWO OR MORE TRANSMISSIONS. NOT TO MENTION THE COST. PLEASE SAVE LIVES AND MAKE NISSAN CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. 2009-2013 ARE THE WORST. MY DAUGHTER OWNS A 2011 NISSAN SENTRA. SHE PULLED FROM A STOP SIGN AND HAD PLENTY OF TIME BUT AS HER CAR LOST ACCELERATION SHE WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY A DUMP TRUCK.. SHE CALLED ME CRYING. SHE HAS DRIVEN FOR 17 YEARS AND WAS TERRIFIED. I READ STORIES OF DRIVERS WHO WERE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND AS THEY SPED UP TO CROSS THE HIGHWAY THEIR CAR JUST CREEPS OUT IN FRONT OF ONCOMING VEHICLES. CHECK WITH SERVICE CENTERS AS WELL AND YOU WILL REALIZE THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH NISSANS. THE ALTIMAS, THE SENTRAS, THE ROGUES, THE PATHFINDERS. THEY HAVE MAJOR ISSUES. THEY NEED TO RECALL THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND MAKE THEM SAFE. I AM UPSET OVER PAYING 3500.00 TO REPAIR THIS CAR BUT MORE UPSET THAT COMPANY IS ALLOWED TO PLAY WITH MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS. I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR THIS UNSAFE. THANKS FOR LISTENING. PLEASE CHECK OUT WHAT I HAVE SAID. THERE ARE PLENTY MORE UNHAPPY NISSAN OWNERS OUT THERE.

WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE STARTED LOOSING POWER AT A FAST RATE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO COAST OFF THE INTERSTATE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. THE VEHICLE IS STILL IDLING BUT WILL NOT GO FORWARD. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MINUTES THE VEHICLE WILL GO AGAIN. BUT AGAIN AFTER A FEW MILES OF DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT A SPEED OF 65 TO 70 MPH THE VEHICLE AGAIN STARTS LOOSING POWER CAUSING US AGAIN TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE. WHEN WE RETURN HOME I DID SOME DIGGING INTO THE HISTORY OF THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION AND FIND MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AFTER HAVING NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOK INTO IT THEY FIND THE TRANSMISSION IS OVERHEATING CAUSING IT TO SHUT DOWN. OUR WARRANTY WILL COVER THE COST OF REPAIR BUT NISSAN REQUIRES AN COOLER TO BE PLACED ON THE TRANSMISSION BEFORE IT CAN BE COMPLETELY REPAIRED DUE TO THIS ISSUE OCCURRING IN THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION BUT THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY OUT OF POCKET APPROXIMATELY $1000.00 FOR THIS COOLER TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE COOLER IS AN ADDITION TO THE DRIVE TRAIN. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE NISSAN HAS WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION, WE WERE VERY LUCKY BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TO GET OFF THE INTERSTATE GOING FROM A HIGH RATE OF SPEED TO COMPLETELY LOOSING POWER WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

THE NISSAN ROGUE 2013 HAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES ON IT, AND AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH HAVE FOUND MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS A FAULTY CVT INSTALLED. NISSAN IS FULLY AWARE OF THE HAZARD THEY HAVE BEEN SELLING SINCE 2008. THEIR VEHICLES ENTER "SAFE MODE" AFTER DRIVING LONGER THAN AN HOUR DUE TO TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERHEATING, AS A RESULT OF NOT HAVING A COOLER/FAN. THIS SAFE MODE CAUSES YOUR VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER IMMEDIATELY AND IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON INTERSTATE OR EVEN HIGHLY TRAFFICKED AREAS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY REFUSE TO CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY. THIS MECHANICAL ISSUE CANNOT BE FOUND BY NISSAN CAR REPAIRSMEN BECAUSE IT IS FACTORY INSTALLED THAT WAY. PLEASE GET RECALL. I HAVE A 4 MONTH OLD BABY WHO'S LIFE IS AT STAKE

THE VEHICLE IDLES AND VIBRATES CONSTANTLY WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS USED. MY WHEEL MAY NOT VIBRATE 10 MINUTES OUT OF A HALF HOUR DRIVE. IT EITHER BARELY WILL TAKE OFF FROM START OR IT COMPLETELY FLOORS IT AND EXCELS. FEELS LIKE A DIESEL RUGGED VEHICLE AND NOT A SMOOTH NORMAL RIDE LIKE ANY CAR OR SUV SHOULD RIDE. I COMPLAINED THE DAY IT WAS PURCHASED AND HAVE HATED IT EVER SINCE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN WHINIG LOUDLY. SUDDENLY, THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER. EVEN THOUGH I WAS GIVING IT GAS, IT WAS ONLY REVING THE ENGINE HIGHER. THE AUTOMOBILE BEHIND ME ALMOST SLAMMED INTO ME AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AS I DECELERATED BECAUSE OF THE TRANMISSION FAILURE.

AT AROUND 56,000 MILES THE ENGINE WOULD REV ON ITS OWN WHEN ID GO UP HILL THEN NO PROBLEMS UNTIL 6 MTHS AGO WHERE @ 66,000 MILES THE CAR WOULD DESPERATE ON ITS OWN FROM 70MPH TO 55 THEN 25 ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HAZARDS ON. I WOULD THEN PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD TAKE 10 SECONDS TO GET TO 50MPH. THE CAR HAS NO POWER IT SEEMS LIKE.

I ALMOST DIED THIS WEEKEND IN MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE!!! GOING SPEED LIMIT OF 75 MPH UPHILL FROM PHOENIX TO PRESCOTT ON I117 FREEWAY. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND AT AN ELEVATION OF ABOUT 3,500 FEET OUTSIDE OF A TOWN CALLED "BUMBLE BEE" MY NISSAN ROGUE WITHOUT WARNING OR ANY INDICATOR LIGHTS COMING ON, BEGINS TO GRADUALLY DECELERATE DOWN TO JUST ABOVE 40 MPH. TWO LANE HIGHWAY WITH NO SHOULDERS ON EITHER SIDE...VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW I AM DOWN TO GOING A MERE 30-40 MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHERE SPEED LIMIT IS 75 MILES PER HOUR!!! ROGUE GRADUALLY SLOWS DOWN EVEN THOUGH I HAVE MY FOOT DEPRESSED FULLY ON THE GAS, PUSHING WITH ALL MY WEIGHT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR BOARD. SEMI TRUCK IS COMING UP VERY QUICKLY BEHIND ME AND DIDN'T ANTICIPATE ME SLOWING DOWN ESPECIALLY SINCE MY BRAKE WAS NOT DEPRESSED AND ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. SEMI TRUCK LITERALLY HAD TO GEAR DOWN AND SWITCH LANES SINCE HE COULD NOT SLOW DOWN IN TIME TO AVOID HITTING ME. SCARED THE LIFE OUT OF ME BUT THERE WAS NO WHERE I COULD GO! LITERALLY HAD TO PUT ON HAZARDS AND CONTINUE AT 40 MPH OR SO FOR NEXT 20 MILES UNTIL I COULD EXIT ONTO HIGHWAY 89, PULL OVER AND STOP. THIS VEHICLE IS A DEATH TRAP AND SOMEONE WILL BE FATALLY INJURED JUST AS I ALMOST WAS THIS PAST WEEKEND. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE AND AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY CHILDREN AROUND IN IT. TOOK TO NISSAN DEALER TODAY AND APPARENTLY NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUES. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION OIL HEATING UP AND ROGUE GOING INTO A "FAIL SAFE" MODE AND DECELERATING. CVT NEEDS TO BE ADDED OR REPLACED! WHY IS THIS VEHICLE NOT BEING RECALLED!? ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE OR FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT TO ENSUE BEFORE DOING WHAT IS MORALLY AND ETHICALLY RIGHT!? SHAME ON YOU NISSAN FOR LETTING CORPORATE GREED AND PROFITS MEAN MORE TO YOU THAN SAFETY!

WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I HAD THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD NOT GO PAST 40 MPH THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. I WAS ON INTERSTATE 10 RETURNING HOME FROM HOUSTON TX ON AUGUST 17, 2017. I HAD NO PROBLEMS ON THE WAY TO HOUSTON. I HAD BEEN DOING THE SPEED LIMIT WHICH WAS BETWEEN 65 AND 75 WITHOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. I HAVE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND I HAVE FOUND OUT IT IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN'S ROUGES AND HAS BEEN FOR YEARS AND THAT IT IS KNOWN ABOUT WHEN YOU GO TO THE DEALERSHIPS ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

2013 NISSAN ROGUE...AFTER ABOUT 40 MINS OF CONSISTENT HIGHWAY DRIVING THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION POWER AND THE RPM'S JUMP INTO 5000+. THE ONLY WAY TO "CORRECT" THE ISSUE IS TO PULL THE CAR OVER, TURN IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. EXTREMELY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS! I TOOK THE CAR TO EXECUTIVE NISSAN IN CT AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS AN INTERNAL FAILURE IN THE CVT TRANSMISSION. EXECUTIVE SAID THE ISSUE CAN'T BE FIXED DUE TO THE PHYSICAL SET UP OF THE TRANSMISSION AND THE ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. OBVIOUSLY THE CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD AND TO HAVE TO REPLACE AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AFTER THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND LESS THAN 100,000 MILES IS UTTERLY RIDICULOUS. THAT BEING SAID, THE MAJOR CONCERN IS THE SAFETY ISSUE IT CAUSES TO NOT ONLY MY FAMILY BUT TO THE OTHER FAMILIES ON THE ROAD AS WELL. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON-LINE IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT NISSAN HAS ISSUES WITH IT'S CVT TRANSMISSIONS, SPECIFICALLY THE ROGUE AND ALTIMA. AT ONE POINT THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS AND/OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES ISSUED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. I'M NOT REALLY SURE HOW NISSAN CAN CONTINUE TO PUT VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THEY DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THE ISSUE ONCE ITS REPORTED TO THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIVISION. I WAS SIMPLY DISMISSED AND TOLD "THIS DECISION IS FINAL". THE REASON GIVEN TO ME WAS SIMPLY BECAUSE I WAS OVER THE FACTORY WARRANTY OF 60,000 MILES. IMAGINE IN THIS DAY AND AGE OF TECHNOLOGY THAT A MAJOR VEHICLE COMPONENT LIKE A TRANSMISSION IS ONLY "GUARANTEED" FOR 60,000 MILES. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY!!
