AIR BAGS, SEATS
SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS FLASHING WHEN VEHICLE IS ON. DEALER DID DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR. THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SEAT ENTIRELY. IF THE PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT REPLACED, THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY WHEN IT SHOULD.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING AT VARIED SPEED THE ROGUE WILL REFUSE TO ACCELERATE AND THE RPMS WILL RISE, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT GO NO MATTER HOW FAR YOU PRESS THE ACCELERATOR DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED COUNTLESS TIMES AND WHEN I RESEARCH ONLINE IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON AND KNOWN ISSUES WITH ROGUES OF THIS YEAR. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL NEAR COLLISIONS DUE TO THIS ISSUES.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT A NEW 2008 NISSAN ROGUE IN 2008. I'M ON THE 3RD TRANSMISSION ON THIS CAR. EACH TIME THE SAME THING GOES WRONG. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION GETS HOT ON A LONGER THAN 2 HOUR TRIP, IT LOSES POWER. ON 7-23-16 ON A 400 MILE TRIP, HALF WAY INTO THE TRIP IT STARTS TO SLOWLY LOSE POWER. THE FASTEST I CAN GO IS 60 MPH. GOING UP HILLS IT'S ABOUT 45MPH AT FULL SPEED. THIS IS THE SAME THING THAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER 2 TRANSMISSIONS. NOW I HAVE 128,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. IS IT STILL A FREE REPLACEMENT ON THE TRANSMISSION? I PROBABLY ONLY HAVE ABOUT 50,000 MILES ON THIS LATEST TRANSMISSION. MY QUESTION IS, WILL THE DEALER REPLACE IT FREE OF CHARGE?

IT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A YEAR NOW. THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THE CAR REVS UP WITH NO APPLIED ACCELERATION. IT WILL SLOW DOWN TO 45 MPH AND I'LL HAVE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD CUT IT OFF AND RESTART THE CAR AND IT'LL STRAIGHTEN OUT FOR ANOTHER 30-45 MILES AND REPEAT. IT'S PRETTY DANGEROUS BC THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE. I'VE READ A LOT OF FORUMS AND IT SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM IN MOST NISSANS. NOT JUST THE ROGUE. I FEEL AS IF THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE ON IMMEDIATE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL THERE IS AIR BAG ICON FLASHING ON THE DASH BOARD IN RED. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS WAS A RECALL REPORTED BACK IN OCTOBER 2008. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN NOVEMBER, 2008 AND I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I CALLED LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THIS RECALL DOES NOT POP UP BASED ON MY VIN AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING FOR THIS ISSUE. MY LOCAL REPAIR MAN SAID IN ORDER TO FIX THIS, I HAVE TO CHANGE WHOLE SEAT WHICH COULD COST ME ABOUT $2000. THIS IS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND LOCAL DEALER DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE CARE THIS ISSUE. I AM SURE ANY SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY NISSANUSA. IF SOMEONE WAS DRIVING AND KILLED BY THE ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DID NOT POP UP, WHAT WOULD YOU DO THEN.

JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, SHE STATED THAT THE DEALERSHIP TOLD HER THE FLASHING PASSENGER AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WAS "NO PROBLEM". DESPITE 2 EFFORTS ON HER PART TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED, IT CONTINUES TO FLASH. WORRIED THAT THE SENSOR WILL NOT ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENT.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND WHEN I HAD A PASSENGER RIDING IN THE FRONT SEAT, THE AIRBAG SENSOR WOULD NEVER GO TO ON. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE BEING THIS MEANS THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY- EVER- BECAUSE IT DOES NOT EVER SENSE SOMEONE SITTING THERE. THERE WAS A RECALL OF MY EXACT MAKE AND MODEL BUT OF COURSE NOT MY VIN#. NOW, THE STATE OF HAWAII WILL NOT LET ME PASS MY SAFETY INSPECTION- BECAUSE THEY ARE VERY WELL OF THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING. SO I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO TELLS ME I HAVE TO REPLACE THE SEAT CUSHION- TO THE TUNE OF OVER $2000! I WROTE TO NISSAN CORPORATE WHO BASICALLY TOLD ME TO SHUT UP AND STOP COMPLAINING. THIS IS A JOKE & I AM CERTAIN WE WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO DIE BEFORE NISSAN IS ACTUALLY HELD RESPONSIBLE. NOW I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE SINCE MY STATE HAS DEEMED IT UNSAFE- OR MY OTHER OPTION IS TO PAY 1/3 OF WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT IS ALREADY KNOWN & THERE ARE 100S OF COMPLAINTS. I HOPE YOU GUYS MOVE THIS ALONG BECAUSE I STILL HAVE TO MAKE A CAR PAYMENT ON A CAR I CANNOT DRIVE, PAY OVER $2000 TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT, OR PAY IT OFF AND JUNK THE CAR, SINCE I CANNOT SELL AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT WON'T PASS A SAFETY INSPECTION. NONE OF THESE OPTIONS ARE EXACTLY GREAT FOR ME. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR TO CONSUMERS & SEEMS MORE LIKE A WAY FOR NISSAN DEALERSHIPS TO INCREASE PROFITS. I HOPE YOU MOVE QUICKLY ON THIS BEFORE INNOCENT LIVES ARE TAKEN BY A KNOWN FAULTY AIRBAG SENSOR. NOT TO MENTION, I ONLY HAVE 30 DAYS TO EITHER PAY THE $2000 TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR TO JUNK MY CAR WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY PENALTIES! I'M GLAD MY OWN STATE CAN SEEM THIS COMPLETELY UNSAFE BUT NO RECALL HAS OCCURRED? WHAT IF I FIX IT- WILL I BE REIMBURSED IF THERE FINALLY IS A RECALL? THIS HAS PUT ME IN SUCH A TERRIBLE PLACE! PLEASE HELP!

POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING IN HIGHWAY CONDITIONS (55MPH IN 55MPH ZONE) WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY DECELERATED AND WOULD NOT GET ABOVE 30MPH. CARS BEHIND ME HAD TO SWERVE AROUND ME IN ORDER TO GET AROUND ME WITH THE SUDDEN DECELERATION. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT OFF THE HIGHWAY & ONTO LOCAL ROADS. EVERY TIME I HAD TO ACCELERATE AFTER A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, THE CAR WOULD NOT INITIALLY ACCELERATE DESPITE ME PUSHING FULL DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR. THIS REPEATEDLY ALMOST RESULTED IN MY BEING HIT BY CARS BEHIND ME. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY MAKE IT HOME. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I AM BEYOND THE WARRANTY EXTENSION (ABOUT 9,000 MILES PAST THE 120,000 EXTENSION), SO I WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL WITH THE # OF COMPLAINTS ALL ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. ALSO, IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY, DOESN'T THAT MEAN THEY MUST BE AWARE THAT IT IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM?! IT IS SO DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING AT 55 AND SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING DECELERATE SIGNIFICANTLY. IT IS A WONDER THAT NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT (& UNFORTUNATELY PROBABLY ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS). THIS APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR & MODEL OF ROGUE.

THE 2008 NISSAN ROGUE WE PURCHASED IN MARCH 2009 HAS EXPERIENCED CONTINUAL CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURES. THE FIRST FAILURE WAS MAY 2009 AND THE CVT WAS REPLACED. THE PART WAS FOUND TO BE MALFUNCTIONING AFTER DETERMINING THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY AND WAS EXPERIENCING HIGH RPMS WHILE DRIVING. THE CVT WAS REPLACED AGAIN IN APRIL 2014 AFTER LOSING FUNCTIONALITY IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE EXPRESSWAY AT WHICH POINT THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY EXPERIENCED HEIGHTENED RPMS, BEGAN DECELERATING AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE GREATER THAN 20MPH. WE SAFELY EXITED THE EXPRESSWAY AT AN APPROACHING EXIT AND COASTED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP LESS THAN THREE BLOCKS FROM THE EXPRESSWAY EXIT. NISSAN RECENTLY ALERTED US THAT THE CURRENT CVT TRANSMISSION IN OUR VEHICLE WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN DESPITE HAVING ONLY 20,000 MILES SINCE THE REPLACEMENT IN 2014. NISSAN HAS DECLINED TO COVER THIS FAULTY PART IN THE VEHICLE AND HAS OFFERED INSTEAD TO PROVIDE A LONGER WARRANTY IF WE PURCHASE A BRAND NEW VEHICLE INSTEAD. IF THE CVT FAILS IN THIS VEHICLE, IT WILL HAVE BEEN THE THIRD TRANSMISSION DURING OUR OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE, REQUIRING A FOURTH TO BE INSTALLED.

I HAVE BEEN REQUESTING NISSAN REPLACE THE SEAT CUSHION IN MY ROGUE SINCE THEY INSPECTED IT IN 2015. THEY HAVE REFUSED. NOW I SEE THERE IS A RECALL, AIR BAG OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS), AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED AND DO NOT SEE MY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL NOTIFICATIONS!!!!! I NEEDS MY SEAT CUSHION REPLACED, OR THE AIR BAG SENSOR WILL NOT ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG IN A COLLISION. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE.
