FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE DATE AND SPEED ENTERED ARE AVERAGES, BECAUSE OF MULTIPLE EVENTS AT VARIOUS TIMES AND CIRCUMSTANCES. I SELDOM KNOW HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE BECAUSE THE GAUGE GOES UP AND DOWN WITHOUT EXPLANATION. SINCE I DON'T DRIVE A LOT I CAN JUST KEEP TRACK OF THE AMOUNT I PUT IN THE TANK AND FILL UP WHEN I THINK I SHOULD. TODAY AS AN EXAMPLE, MY GAUGE SHOWED 1/2 TANK. I SAT IN A PARKING LOT WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING WHILE WAITING FOR A FRIEND TO FINISH AN ERRAND. DURING THAT 10 MINUTES, THE GAS GAUGE WENT UP BY ABOUT 1/8 OF A TANK. THIS WAS SITTING ON LEVEL GROUND IN A PLAZA PARKING LOT, SO NO SLANT TO THE TANK TO GIVE A FALSE READING. SO FAR I HAVE HAD NO SERIOUS ISSUES, BUT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I AM ON OXYGEN, I COULD BE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE IF I HAD TO WAIT A LONG TIME FOR HELP. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE WHEN I HEARD A BANGING NOISE FROM UNDERNEATH THE FLOOR BOARDS SO I TURNED AROUND AND HEADED BACK HOME WHEN THE TRUCK CAME TO A STOP AND WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK SO I WENT UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK AND IT HAD BROKE A U JOINT AND THE U JOINT WAS COMPLETELY COVERED IN RUST WITH THE DRIVE SHAFT STILL TURNING IT HAD SNAPPED THE SHIFTER CABLE. I HAVE SPOKE WITH NUMEROUS PEOPLE THAT HAVE WORKED ON CARS BEFORE AND THEY SAID THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AT THIS LOW OF MILEAGE. I ALSO SPOKE WITH THE PARTS MANAGER FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND HE HAS WORKED ON NISSANS FOR 20 YEARS AND HE SAID HE HAS NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO WORK WITH NISSAN AND THEY ARE TRYING TO SHOVE THE DEAL THAT THEY HAVE FOR ME DOWN MY THROAT AND I AM NOT WILLING TO TAKE IT SINCE THIS IS A FAULT OF NISSAN ON A BAD PART THAT THEY INSTALLED ON MY TRUCK. THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER RECALL ON MY TRUCK THAT I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF AND I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK SERVICED AT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN 2011. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON SEPTEMBER 26, 2013 I HAD BROUGHT MY 2011 NISSAN ROGUE CAR IN FOR SERVICE BECAUSE MY REAR RIGHT DOOR WAS NOT LOCKING/UNLOCKING PROPERLY, AS IT TURNED OUT THE LATCH WAS DEFECTIVE, IT WAS REPLACED. TWO MONTHS LATER, I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE DRIVER''S DOOR WAS HAVING PROBLEMS LOCKING/UNLOCKING. AS IT TURNED OUT THAT LATCH WAS DEFECTIVE AS WELL. (THAT LATCH WAS REPLACED ON DECEMBER 3, 2013.) DURING THIS VISIT I ASKED THAT ALL THE DOORS BE CHECKED (WHILE UNDER WARRANTY) BECAUSE IT SEEMED THAT PERHAPS THIS WAS A DEFECT IN THE CAR''S MANUFACTURING. MY WARRANTY HAS SINCE EXPIRED AS OF MAY, 2014 AND TWO MONTHS LATER IN AUGUST, 2014 THE REAR DRIVER''S DOOR AND NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER''S DOOR ARE MALFUNCTIONING. (DOORS HAVE TO BE OPEN/CLOSED AND LOCKED/UNLOCKED MANUALLY.) THIS NOT ONLY IS A BURDEN, BUT AS A SINGLE WOMEN IT IS A SECURITY RISK NOT ONLY TO MY PERSON BUT TO THE VEHICLE ITSELF. I HAD CONTACTED DEALERSHIP ON BOTH OF THESE ISSUES AT THE TIME OF THE MALFUNCTIONS, AND THEY HAD ADVISED ME THAT THEY CAN ONLY REPAIR THE PROBLEM AT MY EXPENSE SINCE THE WARRANTY HAS SINCE RUN OUT. (NEEDLESS TO SAY, I REALLY DON''T UNDERSTAND THE DEALERSHIP''S POSITION ON THIS ISSUE CONCERNING THE PROBLEMS LEADING UP TO A TOTAL MALFUNCTIONING OF LOCKING/UNLOCKING SYSTEM, SINCE IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE AND WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM AT THEIR DEALERSHIP.) *TR

THE CAR WILL BE AT A COMPLETE STOP AND YOU WILL PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL AND IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE, YOU CAN FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL, AND IT WILL HAVE VERY LITTLE REACTION. IN ADDITION, WHEN THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING ALL YOUR LIGHTS STOP WORKING SO THE PERSON BEHIND YOU DOES NOT KNOW YOU ARE NOT AT A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS NOT A CONSISTENT PROBLEM BUT YOU NEVER NOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN - IT'S LIKE THE CAR GOES INTO THIS AMNESIA STAGE. *TR

POWER TRAIN
WHILE RELOCATING FROM MD TO TN (APPROX. 11 HOURS) IN JULY, TRAVELING THE INTERSTATE VEHICLE BEGAN LOSING ACCELERATION AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS OF DRIVING. VEHICLE NEVER STOPPED NOT OVERHEATED. AFTER BRIEF RESTING PERIODS (15 MINS OR MORE), VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IMPROVED BUT NEVER RETURNED TO NORMAL. UPON ARRIVAL TO TN, VEHICLE WAS CHECKED FOR CLOGGED FUEL INJECTORS AND OIL/BATTERY LEVELS AND FUNCTIONS. ALL WERE FINE. CHANGED GAS FROM REGULAR TO PREMIUM TO MINIMIZE/CORRECT POSSIBLE PROBLEMS. A FEW WEEKS LATER, A 3 HOUR TRIP WAS TAKEN AND THE ISSUE RECURRED. TOOK THE CAR TO CARMAX WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND THEY TRIED TO RECREATE THE ISSUE AND HAD THE VEHICLE ALL DAY WITHOUT DUPLICATION. IN AUGUST, RELOCATED FROM TN TO GA, APPROXIMATELY A 3 HOUR TRIP, AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION, CAR WAS THERE FOR ALMOST A MONTH AS THE ROOT CAUSE WAS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION SETTING THAT PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM ACCELERATING IF THE TRANSMISSION GOT TOO HOT. TURNS OUT THE SETTING WAS SO LOW THAT THE ABOVE-MENTIONED PROBLEMS OCCURRED. I ENDED UP HAVING TO HAVE A TRANSMISSION REPLACED IN A RELATIVELY NEW CAR (3 YRS OLD). *TR

TWO MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT CORAL SPRINGS NISSAN, FL. I WAS DRIVING TO MIAMI WHEN THE CAR LOOSE POWER FROM 70 MPH WENT TO 40 MPH THE CAR COULD NOT ACCELERATE ANYMORE IT WAS VERY SCARY. THIS PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENS WHEN YOU DRIVE FOR MORE THAN 1 HOUR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY ONLY DID A TEST DRIVE FOR MAYBE 30 MINUTES. ONE YEAR AFTER THE INITIAL PROBLEM THE CAR LOOSE POWER QUITE OFTEN I ONLY NEED TO DRIVE LESS THAN 30 MINUTES, AND THE CAR CANNOT ACCELERATE IS LIKE IT GOES TO NEUTRAL WHEN I AM AT THE STOP SIGN, MAKING AN U-TURN, A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN. I AM AFRAID TO HAVE A CAR ACCIDENT. I AM VERY SURPRISE AFTER READING OTHERS COMPLAINTS THAT NISSAN HAS NOT TAKE ANY ACTION TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THERE IS CLEARLY AN ACCELERATION PROBLEM WITH THE 2010 NISSAN ROGUE; OVER 900,000 PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED AND A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. IT SEEMS THAT THE CAR HAS PROBLEMS ACCELERATING AFTER IT WAS STOPPED. IT TYPICALLY DID THIS IF YOU WERE EITHER STOPPED ON A HILL OR IF YOU STOPPED AFTER DRIVING HIGH SPEEDS ON THE INTERSTATE. AFTER SEVERAL INCIDENTS OVER THE COURSE OF 3 MONTHS (I PURCHASED VEHICLE AUGUST 2014), THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT IS NOW ON. I HAVE JUST A LITTLE OVER 38,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION IS DANGEROUS FOR BOTH EXITING THE INTERSTATE AND TURNING RIGHT ON RED. *TR

AIR BAGS
I AM WRITING TO ALERT THE NHTSA TO A POSSIBLE DEFECT IN NISSAN'S AIRBAG CONTROL SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE AND TO REGISTER MY DISSATISFACTION WITH HOW NISSAN NORTH AMERICA RESPONDED TO MY REQUEST FOR A REMEDY. I PURCHASED THIS 2009 NISSAN ROGUE AWD AT AUCTION ON 3 JULY 2013. NISSAN'S LEASING ARM WAS THE PREVIOUS OWNER. I NOTICED FROM THE OUTSET THAT THE LIGHT INDICATING THE STATUS OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SOMETIMES SHOWED INACTIVE, EVEN WHEN AN ADULT WEIGHING OVER 50KG WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT, AND BROWN'S FAIRFAX NISSAN WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE CONDITION WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR A CHECK ON 13 JULY 2013. THE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY OF LATE, AND NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OCCASIONALLY SHOWS THAT IT IS ACTIVE, EVEN WHEN THERE IS NOTHING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. BROWN'S WANTED $128 TO "DIAGNOSE" THE PROBLEM BUT, SINCE IT REMAINED INTERMITTENT, WAS NOT SURE ANYTHING WOULD COME OF THE DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE. AT ABOUT THIS TIME, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN ECM PROBLEM (BY THE WAY, THE VEHICLE INITIALLY FAILED EMISSIONS INSPECTION IN JULY OF 2013 WHEN I TOOK IT TO MY REGULAR SERVICE STATION, BUT BROWN'S WAS ABLE TO GET A "PASS" READING). I ASKED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA TO AUTHORIZE BROWN'S TO CONDUCT A DIAGNOSIS OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG PROBLEM AT THE TIME OF THE ECM REPAIR. NISSAN REFUSED. BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM REMAINS INTERMITTENT, I AM UNSURE HOW TO PROCEED. I DO NOT WISH TO PAY $128 SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPEATED "DIAGNOSIS", BUT CLEARLY SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT IN CASE OTHER INSTANCES OF THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM WITH NISSAN VEHICLES MIGHT HAVE BEEN RECORDED. FOR NOW AND UNTIL THE PROBLEM BECOMES CONSISTENT, I WILL NOT CARRY FRONT-SEAT PASSENGERS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 75 MPH IN VA ON HILLS WHEN THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD BLACKED OUT. I COULD NOT SEE THE RPMS, ACTUAL SPEED I WAS GOING AS THE SPEEDOMETER AND CENTRAL PANEL THAT DISPLAYS THE MILEAGE DRIVE WERE ALL BLACK. I STARTED TO PANIC THINKING THE CAR HAD JUST SHUT DOWN - I CANNOT RECALL IF THE RADIO PANEL WAS ALSO OFF. MY INSTINCTIVE RESPONSE WAS TO STEP ON THE GAS TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS RUNNING TO WHICH I FELT THE CAR SPEED UP BUT I STILL COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING ON THE DASH. I SUBSEQUENTLY PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF THE CAR. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND READINGS WERE VISIBLE WHEN I STARTED UP THE CAR. IN HINDSIGHT, THE DASH HAD APPEARED TO FLICKER EARLIER IN THE DRIVE BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MY VISUAL ANGLE FROM LOOKING DOWN THROUGH MY BIFOCALS. I REPORTED IT TO MY DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALER'S STAFF NOTED THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND NOTED TO BRING IT BACK WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS OCCURRING, IF IT RECURRED. NOT SURE IF THEY REALLY TESTED IT AS THE MAINTENANCE WAS DONE IN LESS THAN TWO HOURS WHICH ALSO INCLUDED AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
VEHICLE SUFFERS LOSS OF POWER WHEN PULLING OUT FROM A DEAD STOP INTO TRAFFIC AND MAY HESITATE SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE REGAINING ACCELERATION. WHEN IT DOES THIS,IT WILL THEN AT TIMES CONTINUE REVVING THE ENGINE TO EXTREME RPMS AND WILL NOT REDUCE RPMS TO THE NORMAL AS IT SHOULD, PLACING THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL WILL ALLOW THE RPMS TO LOWER AND PLACING THE VEHICLE INTO GEAR AGAIN IT WILL DRIVE NORMAL. THERE ARE NO FAILURES BEING SHOWN IN THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS WHEN CHECKED BY DEALER, AND NOTHING IS FAILING. NO SET TIME FRAME OR PATTERN RELATED TO THIS ISSUE, MAY DO IT SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW AND THEN NOT FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES AFTER. THERE IS NO WARNING OR FEEL THAT THIS IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN .

AIR BAGS
THE ELECTRICAL AIR BAG SENSORS FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT HAVE BECOME DYSFUNCTIONAL. THE AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATOR CONTINUALLY FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE SPECIFIC AIR BAG PASSENGER LIGHT STAYS ON. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR AND THE DEALERSHIP CLEARED A CODE ASSOCIATED WITH THE AIR BAGS SENSORS. THE AIR BAG LIGHTS FUNCTIONED NORMALLY FOR ONLY A COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN RETURNED BACK TO FLASHING AND/OR STAYING ON CONTINUOUSLY. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ARE NOT WORKING AND THAT IT WILL COST $2,500 TO REPAIR. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2008 NISSAN ROGUE AIR BAG SYSTEMS BUT APPARENTLY THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THE 2009 MODELS. I AM NOT PAYING $2,500 TO REPAIR SENSORS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MALFUNCTION OF THE PRODUCT THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

I PARKED MY WIFE'S NEW 2014 NISSAN ROGUE IN OUR GARAGE WHICH IS A FLAT SURFACE. WE STARTED TO EXIT THE CAR TO REMOVE OUR BABY FROM THE BACK SEAT. THE VEHICLE BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS AND WOULD HAVE COMPLETELY ROLLED OUT OF THE GARAGE IF I DID NOT PRESS THE BRAKE. I STARTED THE ENGINE AND PULLED IT BACK IN THE GARAGE, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND IT BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS AGAIN. LUCKILY, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ROLL BACK IN OUR PREVIOUS PARKING SPOT OR IT WOULD HAVE ENDED UP IN THE WOODS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLED ME YESTERDAY AND STATED IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE RELIABILITY, SAFETY, AND VALUE OF THIS CAR. I WILL NOTE THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL. *TR

ON THE DATE LISTED ABOVE THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. MY WIFE AND I WERE IN FOUR LANES OF EASTBOUND TRAFFIC ON I40 IN BURLINGTON NC. WE LOST MOMENTUM IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND WERE LUCKY TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MARCH 2008. IT HAD A KNOWN ISSUE WHERE GRINDING NOISES WERE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. NISSAN FINALLY RELEASED A FIX AND MY CAR WAS UPDATED ON 11/30/2009. I BELIEVE THE CVT WAS DEFECTIVE OR DAMAGED BECAUSE OF A SLOW RESPONSE BY NISSAN. THE CAR WAS 20 MONTHS OLD BEFORE THE COMPANY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE SO THAT THE GRINDING NOISE WASN'T PRESENT. I ASKED NISSAN FOR DATA ON FAILURES AND - OF COURSE - THEY SAID THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO BECAUSE THE CATASTROPHIC LOSS OF A TRANSMISSION COULD LEAD TO A DEADLY ACCIDENT. *TR

WAS RETURNING FROM TRIP NORTH CAROLINA BACK HOME TO TENNESSEE ONCE ABOUT HOUR AWAY FELT CAR JUST START SLOWING DOWN CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE WHEN PUSHING ON GAS. WAS ABLE TO GET TO RIGHT HAND LANE AND GET OFF INTERSTATE JUST BEFORE CAR WENT TO A CRAWL. CAR WAS MAKING WHINING NOISE WHILE TRYING TO MOVE CAR FROM HIGHWAY. CAR CAME TO STOP AND UNABLE TO MOVE AGAIN. HAD CAR TOWED BACK TO MY HOUSE SENT TO SHOP TO FIND OUT THAT TRANSMISSION HAD MALFUNCTIONED. DOING RESEARCH ON TRANSMISSION FOUND OUT THE NISSAN ROUGE IS USING CVT TRANSMISSION AND THAT NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 120K OR 10 YEARS. MY RESEARCH ALSO FOUND OUT THAT OTHER NISSAN OWNERS OF ROGUE AND MURANOS WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH CVT TRANSMISSION. WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT ABOUT THE WARRANTY I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER CARE TO INQUIRE ABOUT THIS. I WAS TOLD MY MODEL AND MAKE QUALIFIED UNDER WARRANTY AND THAT MILEAGE DIDN'T MATTER. NISSAN DECIDED NOT TO ASSIST ME WITH REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT OF TRANSMISSION. I TRIED TO TELL NISSAN ABOUT LETTER THAT STATED THEY WOULD DECREASE COST EVEN ABOVE 120K. THEY REFUSED TO DO SO. I HAD NO WARNING SENSORS THAT THERE WAS PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSION. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A BAD ACCIDENT IF THE TRANSMISSION HAD OF WENT OUT DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC. IT APPEARS READING ABOUT OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCES WITH CVT TRANSMISSIONS THAT NISSAN DOESN'T WANT TO OWN UP TO HAVING A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. EVEN SPEAKING WITH MECHANICS FROM OUTSIDE AND WITH NISSAN THAT THIS TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY AND MANY HAVE ISSUES AND COMPLAINANTS ABOUT IT. *TR

HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ON A 1 HOUR ROAD TRIP, CAUSING NEAR FATALITY AS CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE UP A HILL AND WHEN IN THE COURSE OF PASSING A DISABLEDVEHICLE, THE CAR WOULD NOT SPEED UP ENOUGH TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC SPEED IN ADJACENT LANE, CAUSING DRIVER BEHIND VEHICLE TO SLAM ON BRAKES TO AVOID COLLISION. THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO ACCELERATE THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP (1 HOUR MORE) AND ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. *TR
