I BOUGHT NISSAN ROGUE 2010 WITH A CLEAN TITLE IN DECEMBER OF 2013. I STARTED HAVING SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR IN THE SPRING OF 2014. I BEGAN HEARING A WHINING SOUND ON ACCELERATION COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING ON LONG ROAD TRIPS. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UP UNTIL A YEAR LATER, WAS SUDDENLY UNABLE TO ACCELERATE WHEN GOING UP HILL OR DRIVING LONGER THAN 20 MILES. THE PEDAL WAS DOWN TO THE FLOOR BUT RATHER THAN PICK UP SPEED, THE VEHICLE WOULD DECELERATE AND WAS UNABLE TO REACH EVEN 40 MPH. IT STARTED HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN, AND I ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES. I WENT TO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND FOUND OUT THAT NISSAN WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM WITH THEIR CVTS AND THAT THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS/120,000 MPH. HOWEVER, THEY WERE REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WAY TO DUPLICATE IT SINCE IT WOULD TAKE SEVERAL MILES OF DRIVING AROUND TO NOTICE ACCELERATION FAILURE. THE WHINING SOUND AND VIBRATION ARE NORMAL I WAS TOLD. AFTER GOING TO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS MULTIPLE TIMES AND TALKING WITH NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES, IN DECEMBER 2016 I WAS FINALLY TOLD THAT THERE'S NO EXTENDED WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE BECAUSE NISSAN CANCELED MY CAR'S WARRANTY BACK IN 2014 BECAUSE OF A BRANDED TITLE. I CALLED DOL AND FOUND OUT THERE WAS A MISTAKE DONE. THEY FIXED MY TITLE AND THERE'S NO BRAND ON IT. NOW I GOT A CALL FROM A NISSAN CUSTOMER AFFAIR REP MR DARIES WHO INFORMED ME THAT THEY ARE WORKING ON GETTING THE BRAND OFF OF MY TITLE AND IT SHOULD TAKE 4-6 WEEKS BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO EXPEDITE IT. HE PROMISED HE WOULD CALL ME REGULARLY WITH AN UPDATE. IT'S BEEN ALMOST TWO MONTHS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I CALLED SEVERAL TIMES LEAVING VOICEMAIL TO MR DARIES AND NEVER GOT A CALL BACK FROM HIM. I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE LONGER THAN 10 MILES WHEN MY CAR STARTS LOSING ACCELERATION AND HAS THIS HORRIBLE WHINING NOISE.

CVT ON THE NISSAN ROGUE HAS THE SAME ISSUE THAT THE 2003-2010 RECALLS HAVE. JUST GOT BACK FROM A VACATION THAT WAS DELAYED 2 HOURS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND WE LOST ACCELERATION ON I75 IN FLORIDA. WE WERE ALMOST HIT BY TWO SEMI TRUCKS. THE RPMS JUST REG UP AND THE CAR LOSES POWER DECELERATION IS FAST AND DANGEROUS. THE ISSUE WITH THE CVT FROM NISSAN HAS BEEN FIXED AFTER 2010. I WANT TO GET THIS FIXED BY NISSAN ASAP AS OUR ROGUE HAS 97K MILES AND HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE 60K BUT THE 2012S AREN'T INCLUDED. MY LAWYER IS WORKING CLOSING ON THIS MATTER AS WELL. IT SEEMS LIKE NISSAN NEEDS PEOPLE TO ACTUALLY DIE BEFORE THEY TAKE ACTION.

MY 2010 NISSAN ROGUE WILL NOT ACCELERATE WHEN GOING UPHILL ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN FLOORING THE GAS PEDAL, THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN FROM 70 TO 60 TO 50 TO 40 MPH ON A UPHILL (THERE WERE ONLY THREE PASSENGERS INCLUDING DRIVER). THE CAR TRANSMISSION WILL EVENTUALLY STOP WORKING UNTIL THE CAR COOLS DOWN. TOOK CAR TO A NISSAN SERVICE CENTER AND WAS REPAIRED UNDER NISSAN'S CVT 10 YEARS/120K MILES WARRANTY REFERENCING TSB NTB14-002E. THE VALVE BODY WAS REMOVED/REPLACED AND AN EXTERNAL COOLER WAS INSTALLED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

LOSS OF ACCELERATION ON INTERSTATE AND INNER CITY DRIVING. COMPLETE LOSS OF SPEED CONTROL, PRESSING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR HAS NO EFFECT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN THIS OCCURS. HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 40,000 MILES. I FEAR FOR THE LIVES OF MY PASSENGERS, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN AND WILL NO LONGER USE THIS VEHICLE WITH THEM INSIDE.

ON JUNE 17, 2017 WHILE DRIVING IN CALIFORNIA ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ROGUE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND NOT MAINTAIN SPEED. THE ROGUE WAS DRIVING SMOOTHLY AND ALL OF SUDDEN IT SLOWED DOWN FROM 75-80 MPH TO 60 MPH . I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR AND EVEN TURNED ON MY OVERDRIVE BUTTON WITH NO LUCK. THIS ISSUED LASTED FOR SEVERAL MILES UNTIL IT JUST STARTED WORKING AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUED OFF AND ON FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP TO AND FROM CALIFORNIA . THERE WAS EVEN MULTIPLE INSTANCES WHERE THE ROGUE WOULD NOT EXCELERATE AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT . I PUSHED THE GAS MEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD MOVE MORE THAN 5-10 MPH FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET UNTIL IT WORKED AGAIN. WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 3 YEARS NOW AND HAVEN'T HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. WE LIVE IN ARIZONA WITH EXTREME HEAT AND I HAVE READ OTHER PEOPLE'S POSTS ABOUT HEAT COULD BE A PROBLEM, HOWEVER WE SEE EXTREME TEMPERATURES EVERY YEAR SINCE WE OWNED IT WITH NO PROBLEMS UNTIL NOW.

WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS OVER 90 DEGREES AND THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES THE CAR HAS ACCELERATION ISSUES. WHEN AT A FULL STANDSTILL SUCH AS AT A STOPLIGHT THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE QUICKLY AND RESPOND TO PEDAL PRESSURE. WHEN THE PEDAL IS FLOORED AND TRYING TO START AGAIN IT HAS A LONG DELAY LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS IN A HIGH GEAR OR IS OVERHEATED. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN MANY ISSUES ONLINE ABOUT THE CVT OF THE ROGUE. THIS ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN IT IS HOT OUT. THERE ARE ALSO ISSUES WHEN GOING UP AN INCLINE IN HOT TEMPERATURE THE CAR DOES NOT RESPOND TO PEDAL PRESSURE AND ACCELERATION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT WHEN TRYING TO TURN LEFT AT A LIGHT I EXPECT MY CAR TO GO AND NOT STUTTER AND THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CLOSE CALLS TO BEING BROADSIDED.

WHILE WE WERE IN THE HILL CAR COULD CHANGE GEAR OR POWER WE WERE DRIVING 65 TO 70 MPR AND WENT DOWN TO 20 ON THE FREEWAY. VERY DANGEROUS SPECIALLY POOLING OVER AND HAVE THE CAR RELAX THIS WAS WHEN THE CAR HAD ONLY 70,000 MILES . WE LATER RECEIVED A LETTER FROM NISSAN THAT NEED TO RECALL AND UPDATE COMPUTER .WE TOOK IT IN AND MY HUSBAND COMPLAINED TO THEM THAT IT WAS MAKING A NOISE WHEN WE ACCELERATED AND HE ALSO MENTION THE FIRST TRIP AND SAID TO US EVERYTHING WAS OKAY . WE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM AFTER THAT MY HUSBAND ONLY DRIVE IT TO WORK AND HOME. WE RECENTLY TOOK CAR TO OREGON SAME ROUTE READING AND AS JEW ARE HITTING THE HILL SAME PROBLEM HAPPEN. I INVESTIGATED IT THIS HAPPEN TO THIS CAR AND A LOT OF OTHER CUSTOMERS THAT HAVE THIS CAR HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM CALL CUSRTSERVICE AND REFER US TO CONSUMER AFFFAIR WE ARE NOW SPEAKING TO A COSUMER AFFAIR REPRESENTATIVE THEY MADE US PAY TWICE A DIAGNOSTIC IN OREGON NOW IN CALIFORNIA AND I'M PENDING WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO OR HELP ME WITH THIS CAR. MY CAR NOW HAS 123000 THEY HAVE A EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY TO 120000 . MY PROBLEM WITH NISSAN IS THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN INTO THEIR DEALERSHIP BEFORE THEY SAID IT WAS FINE AND IF I KNEW ABOUT THERE EXTENDED WARRANTY I WOULD HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN. NOW THE SECOND DIAGNOSTIC IN CALIFORNIA THAT I HAVE TO PAY 160 THEY SAID THAT I NEED NEW TRANSMISSION AND PENDING IN HOW THEY GOING TO HELP ME. THIS NOT ONLY IT WAS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAVE MY 8 MONTH DAUGHTER AND MY SON IN THE CAR AND HAVE IT STOP AND ONLY GO 20 MPR IN A HIGHWAY WHERE TRUCKS ARE PASSING FAST. AND ALSO STOP EVERY 20 MIN IN THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO LET CAR COOL DOWN. I HOPE THEY CAN DO SOMETHING BEFORE A FAMILY LOSES THERE LIFE FOR A NEGLECTED CAR THAT NISSAN

WHILE THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE PER SAY, IF WE CAN'T GET YOU TO HELP WITH THIS ISSUE THEN WHO CAN WE TURN TO? A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH OF "2013 NISSAN ROGUE PAINT PROBLEMS" WILL REVEAL A NUMBER OF CONSUMER COMPLAINTS RELATED TO JUST ONE COLOR OF THE CAR, PEARL WHITE. I TOO AM HAVING THIS ISSUE NOW AND IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE TO ME THAT NISSAN HASN'T ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND ISSUED A VOLUNTARY RECALL. SOME PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE FIXED, SOME HAVE NOT. THE DIFFERENCE BEING THEIR WILLINGNESS TO FIGHT FOR IT. AS CONSUMERS, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO "FIGHT" FOR AN APPARENT MANUFACTURER DEFECT TO BE RESOLVED. PAINT CHIPPING IN LARGE PIECES THE WAY IT IS, IS A LOT MORE THAN AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS NOT HARD TO SEE THAT PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IMPROPER PAINT LEADS TO RUST AND RUST LEADS TO BIGGER PROBLEMS. WON'T YOU BE A VOICE FOR US AND HELP US GET THIS RESOLVED? THANKS!

WE PURCHASED A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE AT THE END OF 2010, AND IT WAS A GOOD CAR IN THE BEGINNING, HOWEVER, I STARTED TO NOTICE SMALL THINGS HERE AND THERE THAT WEREN'T THAT GREAT. BUT THEY WOULD COME AND GO. THEN ONE DAY I OPENED THE LEFT REAR DOOR HANDLE, AND IT BROKE OFF!! IT LOOKED LIKE A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC YOU SEE AT THE DOLLAR STORE. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THEY WANTED $550!!! RIDICULOUS! I FOUND A GOOD HONEST MECHANIC PLACE AND THEY EVEN REDUCED THE COST SINCE IT ONLY TOOK THEM 15 MINS TO REPLACE IT! ONLY COSTED ME $80! SO NOW AND AGAIN IT HAS ALSO BEEN LOSING RPMS AND HAVING DIFFICULTY SPEEDING UP. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING FROM WORK AND ON THE FREEWAY, AND THE RPMS STOPPED AT 4000 AND FROZE. I WOULDN'T GO OVER 60MPH! HE WAS SCARED AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. HE CHECKED THE OIL (IT WAS PERFECT), THE INSIDE AND SAW NOTHING. HE SAID HE SMELT A FIRE TYPE SMELL WHILE IN THE INSIDE OF THE CAR, BUT NO FIRES. HE SLOWLY GOT OVER AND PULLED OFF OF THE FREEWAY AND INTO A CAR PLACE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. I CALLED NISSAN AS THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE NISAN ROGUE. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS THE 2010 ROGUE. MINE IS THE 2011 ROGUE WHICH WAS PURCHASED AT THE END OF 2010. SO I AM SUPPOSE TO BELIEVE THAT THEY SOMEHOW PUT A BETTER CVT TRANSMISSION IN MY ROGUE WHICH IS NOT THAT FAR OFF FROM THE 2010 THAT HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND RECALL ON IT?? HARDLY, I HAVE SEEN MANY MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND EXACT YEAR. I'VE EVEN CALLED ABOUT OUR ROGUE A FEW TIMES WHEN I'VE HEARD ABOUT RECALLS, BUT THEY'VE ALWAYS TOLD ME IT'S ONLY 2010 AND MY CAR SHOULD BE FINE. OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT FINE, AND THE CAR IS CRAP. NISSAN SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS , AND THEY ARE NOT . THEY WILL CONTINUE TO LOSE GOOD CUSTOMERS THAT ARE HARD WORKING AMERICANS WHO PAY THEIR BILLS.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN RESIDENTIAL GARAGE WITH FLAT TIRE. SCISSORS TYPE JACK HAD NEVER BEEN USED. WHEN I USED THE JACK ON FLAT, STABLE SURFACE AT HARD POINT ON VEHICLE PER OWNER'S MANUAL IT BENT MOMENTS AFTER TAKING WEIGHT. I STEPPED BACK FROM VEHICLE FOR MY OWN SAFETY, JACK BUCKLED, AND CAR FELL. LUCKILY I WAS NOT INJURED AND WHEEL WITH FLAT TIRE WAS STILL ON HUB SO VEHICLE WAS NOT DAMAGED. HOWEVER, WHEN I CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE (CASE #26836371) THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE THE JACK AS THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND HAD NO PROCESS TO ESCALATE THIS SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD BE AFFECTING OTHER OWNERS. A JACK THAT FAILS IMMEDIATELY UPON FIRST USE HAS TO BE DUE TO A DESIGN, MANUFACTURING, OR METALLURGICAL FLAW. ATTACHED PHOTOS SHOW TWISTED JACK AND BENT SCREW ASSEMBLY.

I DRIVE TO SAN ANTONIO FROM EL PASO AND BACK IT HAPPENED BOTH WAYS. WE WERE GOING UP AN INCLINE AND I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE, I GOT NOT RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL. NOTHING AT ALL, BESIDES A SLIGHT ACCELERATION UNTIL WE PULLED OFF THE ROAD. I COULD PUSH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR WITH LITTLE TO NO RESPONSE, AND MOSTLY NO RESPONSE. I TURN THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, STARTED IT UP, AND WE WERE SOMEWHAT BACK TO NORMAL. IT ACCELERATED, BUT DIDN'T HAVE POWER BEHIND IT. IT TOOK MUCH MORE TO GET TO 80MPH, OR EVEN 60 MPH THEN A FEW MILES MORE IT STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN AND IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAD TRAILERS AND CARS THAT HAD TO GO AROUND ME RIGHT AWAY LUCKY FOR ALL OF US THERE WAS NOT MUCH TRAFFIC SO THEY WERE ABLE TO CHANGE LANE FAST IF NOT THEY WOULD HAVE CRASHED INTO ME COUSIN A BIG OR EVEN FATAL ACCIDENT.

I WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON MILITARY TRAIL PREPARING TO TURN RIGHT AT PIPERS GLEN. THE LIGHT WAS GREEN AND THERE WAS A WHITE CAR IN THE MIDDLE LANE WAITING TO ENTER MILITARY. I SLOWED DOWN TO MAKE MY TURN AND SUDDENLY MY CAR ACCELERATED. IF I CONTINUED TO TURN THERE WAS NO DOUBT I WOULD HAVE HIT THE WAITING CAR. I PROCEEDED STRAIGHT, PASSED THIS CAR AND DROVE ONTO A GRASSY AREA. MY FRONT WHEEL HIT THE CURB WHICH SLOWED MY CAR BUT PUSHED ME ALONG THE SIDE OF THE WHITE CAR CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH CARS. THE FIRE TRUCKS CAME AND A POLICE CAR. SINCE NO ONE WAS HURT I WAS INSTRUCTED TO LEAVE MY CAR THERE TO BE TOWED . MY SON PICKED ME UP AND I CALLED THE TOWING CO. ABOUT 1 HOUR LATER I WAS CALLED AND TOLD THE TOW WAS ON THE WAY. WHEN WE ARRIVED TO WHERE MY CAR WAS I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THE FRONT LIGHTS ON. THERE WAS A MOTOR NOISE AND THE HOOD WAS HOT . WHENWE LEFT THE CAR THERE IT WAS LOCKED AND THE MOTOR WAS NOT ON. IF THIS WERE NOT THE CASE I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LOCK THIS CAR HAVING A KEYLESS ENTRY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT EVER DRIVING THIS CAR WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES. I CALLED BOTH NISSAN AND THE REPAIR COMPANY AND REPORTED WHAT HAPPENED. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD SCAN THE CAR BUT SOMETIMES NOTHING SHOWS UP. I USE MILITARY TRAIL ALMOST EVERY DAY AND PIPERS GLEN LEADS TO MY HOME. I AM HAPPY THAT NO ONE WAS HURT BUT HAUNTED BY REALIZING WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED IF I ATTEMPED TO MAKE THAT RIGHT TURN.BOTH THESE ROADS ARE CITY STREETS.I HAVE NO PICTURESEXCEPT FOR MY MEMORY.
