2013 Nissan Rogue Complaint Log

WHILE DRIVING ON 101 NORTH PASSING THROUGH SANTA ROSA, CA ON MAY 29, 2017 GOING THE HIGHWAY SPEED LIMIT OF 65MPH, MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WAS STRUGGLING TO GET UP A SMALL INCLINE WHEN THE MPH SUDDENLY DROPPED TO 30 AND I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO GO ANY FASTER. THE ROAD WAS PACKED WITH CARS AS IT WAS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. I HAD 3 CHILDREN IN MY CAR. WE BARELY MADE IT OVER TO THE SHOULDER WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY WENT DEAD. IT WAS ABSOLUTE SHEER LUCK THAT THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. CARS WERE SWERVING ALL AROUND ME TO AVOID HITTING ME. I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND HAD TO CROSS OVER 2 OTHER LANES (GOING 30 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY) TO GET TO THE SHOULDER. MY CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS 85,000 MILES ON IT. MY DEALER SAID "THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM IS COMMON" WITH THIS MODEL. I GOOGLED "2013 ROGUE CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS" AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS: THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO HAPPEN ON SURFACE ROADS. THIS IS VERY, VERY DANGEROUS. THE COMPANY WAS BESIEGED WITH CVT COMPLAINTS AND FIXED THEIR 2010 AND 2011 MODELS, BUT THIS PROBLEM IS STILL HAPPENING WITH ALL SUBSEQUENT ROGUE MODELS. PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS.

WHILE ON MY WAY BACK TO LOUISIANA FROM MY VACATION IN FLORIDA DRIVING WEST BOUND ON INTERSTATE 10. MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER GOING UP AN INCLINE ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED DOWN THE DECLINE. I PULLED OFF THE INTERSTATE TO A GAS STATION AND CHECKED MY VEHICLE FOR LEAKAGE AND FOUND NONE. I CHECKED ALL FLUID LEVELS THE WAY THE MANUFACTURER INSTRUCTS YOU TO AND ALL LEVELS WERE IN OPERATING RANGE. I RETURNED TO THE INTERSTATE AND THE SAME PROBLEM AS BEFORE HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS BOXED IN BY 18 WHEELERS AND ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE. I STARTED CHECKING INTERNET TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND FOUND OUT I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO IS HAVING THESE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR NISSAN. HONESTLY THIS HAD TO BE A SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT [XXX] WITH ANY MORE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO TURN RIGHT AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND WHEN I WENT TO EXCELERATE THE CAR STALLED AND IT CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP. IT STARTED UP RIGHT AWAY BUT IT SCARED ME. IT WASN'T THAT HOT. IT WAS AROUND 10:00 PM IN LAS VEGAS AT THE END OF MAY 2017. IT HAPPENED ONCE BEFORE THAT BUT I DON'T REMEMBER THE DATE.

I HAD STOPPED BRIEFLY TO PAY A TOLL AND WHEN I WAS READY TO DRIVE THE CAR HESITATED AND THE RPM WENT TO 4 AND IT STARTED TO GO SLOWLY THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DROVE SLOWLY TO NEAREST REPAIR SHOP AND THE CODES THAT CAME UP WERE P0744 AND P1740. HAD TO TOW MY VEHICLE HOME AT THE COST OF $360.

THE CVT (VARIABLE TRANSMISSION) IS LOSING POWER ON THE HIGHWAY AND I WAS SUDDENLY UNABLE TO GO ANY FASTER. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO "SAFE MODE" DUE TO OVERHEATING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY NISSAN AS THEY GAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS SAME ISSUE TO ALL 2008 TO 2010 ROGUE OWNERS. HOWEVER THEY NO LONGER PROVIDE THIS AND INSTEAD THEIR FIX IS TO CHARGE FOR A DIFFERENT TRANS OIL COOLER FOR THIS 2013 MODEL. IF THE CVT IS STILL HAVING ISSUES THE FIX SHOULD BE COVERED BY NISSAN NOT ME.

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!

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILS DURING ACCELERATION AT INTERSECTIONS; TRANSMISSION FAILS WHEN GOING UPHILL AND STARTS RAPIDLY DE-ACCELERATING PUTTING VEHICLE AT RISK OF BEING REAR-ENDED; EVEN ON LEVEL HIGHWAY, NISSAN ROGUE WILL START LOSING ACCELERATION PUTTING VEHICLE AT RISK OF ACCIDENT AND INJURY/DEATH TO PASSENGERS. TOTALLY UNPREDICTABLE AND UNRELIABLE.

VEHICLE LOST ALL ACCELERATION ON A BUSY HIGHWAY - VERY DANGEROUS.

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 75 ON A TRIP. CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED WHINING AND NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESSED ON THE GAS CAR WOULD NOT INCREASE SPEED. VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE 80,000 MILES. REPAIR TECHNICIAN SAID HE HAS SEEN SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH VALVE BODY OVER HEATING AND CVT TRANSMISSION COOLANT MIXING WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID. CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE AND HAD A CASE OPENED. CLAIM WAS DENIED SAYING THEY HAVE NO RECALLS OR PROBLEMS WITH CVT OF THE ROGUE VEHICLE. DRIVING ANYWHERE ESPECIALLY ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE WITH THIS ISSUE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

CAR LOSES ACCELERATION ON WARM DAYS AND DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR 30 MINUTES PLUS. PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE ONLY CAUSES RPM'S TO INCREASE BUT THE MPH OF THE VEHICLE DOES NOT. AFTER PULLING THE VEHICLE OVER AND GIVEN A CHANCE TO COOL DOWN, NORMAL OPERATIONS RESUME UNTIL THE FLUIDS IN THE CVT DRIVE HEATER UP AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF YOU ARE IN A BAD POSITION ON THE HIGHWAY AND NEED TO ACCELERATE FOR SOME REASON ANC CANNOT, THIS CAN BE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

CAR LOSES POWER AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY. THE ROGUE HAS SOME ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION PROBLEM HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2013/ HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2013/CAR-STALL-PROBLEMS.PHP THE NISSAN ROGUE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER MODEL YEARS I TOOK A TRIP TO CHICAGO GOING THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS IN TENNESSEE. AS I WAS GOING UP THE MOUNTAIN MY 2010 NISSAN ROGUE BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN, DISENGAGE FROM MY CRUISE CONTROL NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESS THE PETAL MY CAR WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER.

IN APRIL OF 2017 WHILE DRIVING THER WA A METAL ON METAL SOUND COMING FROM UNDERNETH THE CAR WHILE STEPPING OR ACCERLATING ON THE GAS. AFTER TAKING TO MY MECHANIC I WAS ADVISE THAT I NEEDED A NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER THERE WAS NO ENGINE LIGHT NOTIFICATION. I RECIEVED A LETTER IN NOVEMBER 2017 FROM NISSAN STATING THAT THE EVAPORATIVE EMISSION VAPOR TUBE MAY DEVELOP A CLOG. AFTER SPEAKING WITH MY MECHANIC HE STATED I SHOULD FILED A CLAIM WHICH I DID . NISSAN STATED THAT MY NEW CATALYIC CONVERTER HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY EMMISSIONS. I REFILED MY CLIAM AFTER HAVING MY MECHANIC WROTE A NARRATIVE I THEN RECIEVE AN E-MAIL FROM NISSAN STATING THAT AFTER REVIEWING MY VEHICLE INDENTIFICATION NUMBER, THERE IS NO EVAPORATIVE VENT TUBE WARRANTY EXTENSION RELATED TO THE VIN AND THOSE WOULD BE THE REASONS WHY THE REQUEST WOULD BE DEINED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS.

WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON COLORADO MOUNTAIN PASSES, THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS PUT ME IN A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION WITH THE OTHER TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD GOING 55MPH AND MY CAR NOT GOING FASTER THAN 20MPH. I TOOK IT TO WOODMEN NISSAN IN COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO WHERE I WAS TOLD THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS IN THE TRANSMISSION PAN, AND IT NEEDED REPLACED. I HAD PURCHASED AN EXTRA INSURANCE PLAN FOR REPAIRS WITH THE CAR IN APRIL OF 2015, THE CAR HAD 29,000 WHEN PURCHASED FROM MODERN CLASSIC MOTORS IN GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO. I USED THIS INSURANCE TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED BY WOODMEN NISSAN IN APRIL 2017.

THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO STEERING LOCK FUNCTION; THEREFORE, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

A LITTLE OVER 2 MONTHS OF BUYING THE VEHICLE I NOTICED A LIGHT ON THE DASH BROAD SO I BOUGHT IT IN TO BE SERVICED ONLY TO FIND OUT I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG CLUTCH. AS LONG AS THE MOTOR WAS RUNNING THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON.

WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ON CRUISE CONTROL AND IT KEEP TURN OFF. I PRESSED DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE NO MATTER WHAT!!! AND THAT'S WHEN THE CARS BEHIND ME START HONKING, CUSSING ME BUT THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

PAINT IS CHIPPING OFF OF CAR

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.

TRANSMISSION "SLIPS ? " DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING.THE VEHICLE SLOWS DRASTICALLY AND SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING CAUSING A RISK OF GETTING HIT FROM BEHIND. MUST PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD QUICKLY.FEEL VERY UNSAFE USING THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY.I'VE NOTICED ON THE NISSAN BLOG , THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR ALMOST A DECADE WITHOUT A RECALL. PLEASE HELP..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD OVERHEAT AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 3-4 HOURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE OVERHEATING WOULD PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM ACCELERATING OVER 45 MPH.

THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE REPAIR WAS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 27801526. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

I WAS MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY GOING ~50 MPH. WENT TO ACCELERATE AND THE ACCELERATER DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME TENSION. THEN ALL LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH (CHECK ENGINE, OIL, BATTERY ETC) THEN THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION. PULLED TO THE SHOULDER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, BACK ON AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON, BUT NOT ACTIVE AS I WAS MERGING, AND SPORT MODE WAS ON. SINCE THE INCIDENT WHEN ON CRUISE CONTROL I WILL FEEL THE TRANSMISSION 'SLIP' FROM TIME TO TIME AS WELL. HOWEVER I COULD NOT RECREATE THE ISSUE OF THE CAR STALLING.I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IF I COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO EITHER. IT LOOKS LIKE PEOPLE ARE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND HOPEFULLY THIS CAN GET RESOLVED.

FRONT BELTS RETRACTORS ARE LOCKED, NOT ALLOWING TO ADJUST BELTS HIGH.

WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE PAST 40MPH OR CLIMB SMALL HILLS GREATER THAN 40 MPH. VEHICLE WILL ACT NORMALLY BUT WHEN YOU GET OFF THE FREEWAY, IT LOSES POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. BIG SAFETY ISSUE WHEN TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AND YOU NEED SPEED TO PASS OR EVEN KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. FOUND ONLINE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND I BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL FOR SAFETY CONCERNS

2013 NISSAN ROUGE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AND CAUSES VEHICLE TO DECELERATE WHILE IN MOTION. DEALERSHIP ADVISED AN ADDITIONAL COOLANT WAS NECESSARY TO CONTROL THE TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE CRUISE CONTROL SHUT OFF AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO ZERO.

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 40 MPH INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT WARNING THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTINUOUS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. UPDATED 02/21/17*LJ

THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSED FROM THE OUTSIDE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP. WHEN THE DOOR LATCHED ALL SIDE AIRBAGS (CURTAIN AND IN SEAT) DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO COLLISION. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR, WHICH APPEARED TO BE A "DOOR DING" THAT HAD OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 8 WEEKS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT INVOLVING THE AIRBAGS. IT WAS PURELY COSMETIC NO REPAIR WAS SOUGHT. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALER AFTER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED.

CVT TRANSMISSION OVER HEATS AND CAUSES ENGINE TO GO INTO LIMP MODE AT TIMES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC ON INTERSTATE OR HILLS WHEN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE 85F. HAS CREATED A DANGEROUS SITUATION IN TRAFFIC WHERE I HAVE HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING TO SLOW LANE. I BELIEVE IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD. CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE NEW. I'VE REPORTED THE PROBLEM MANY TIMES TO DEALERS. CONSUMER AFFAIRS WAS CONTACTED, WITH NO RESOLUTION.

CAR WON'T TURN ON RANDOMLY. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY FIVE TIMES. EACH TIME THE CAR RANDOMLY STOPS WORKING EVERY FEW THOUSAND MILES. THE CAR WILL TAKE TEN OR ELEVEN TRIES TO START. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. IF FOR ANY REASON WE EVER NEEDED TO LEAVE THE CAR CANNOT START QUICKLY. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY, NOT ALL THE TIME (SOMETIMES IT STARTS FINE AFTER ONE TURN, THE NEXT TIME IT COULD TAKE FIVE MINUTES TO FINALLY START, THEN GO BACK TO FINE). NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO TELL US WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS DEFECT.

I OWN A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE.THAT I HAVE KEPT UP THE SERVICE ON AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR EVERYTHING, BUT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY FAILED TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT.THE MILEAGE WAS BETWEEN 80,000.TO 85,000. AT THAT POINT THE ROGUE BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE AND CAN'T ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AND IT HAS LEFT MY FAMILY AND I STRANDED ON THE INTERSTATE 3 TIMES, NOW I CAN'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE AT ALL AND FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. AND NISSAN FOR SOME REASON CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHEN THEY HOOK IT UP TO THE COMPUTER BECAUSE THERE IS NO CODE ERROR. (BUT THEY DO HAVE THE [XXX] TO TELL ME I NEED TO BUY A NEW TRANSMISSION FOR A CAUSE OF OVER $5000 BEFORE TAXES)THIS ROGUE IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD, THIS ALL HAS BEEN VERY FRIGHTENING TO ME AND MY FAMILY, AS I AM ON THE FREEWAY EVERY DAY AND SOMEONE COULD VERY EASILY CRASH INTO ME WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FAILS OR EVEN WHEN I AM TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC FROM AN ON RAMP OR OUT OF A PARKING SPOT IN THE CITY OR A TOOL BOOTH AND THERE IS ZERO POWER, I CAN'T EXPRESS HOW DANGEROUS THIS IS. NISSAN PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, WE ARE HARD WORKING PEOPLE AND NONE OF US WILL EVER CONSIDER ANOTHER NISSAN IF THIS CAN'T BE FIXED. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 62,135 MILES. OVERHEATED. NO PRIOR PROBLEMS OR REPAIRS. DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDATION IS REPLACE TRANSMISSION AND ADD A TRANSMISSION COOLER. SOLD IN GEORGIA OPERATED IN GEORGIA AND NEEDS A TRANSMISSION COOLER TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE IN GEORGIA?! ESCALATED TO NISSAN REGIONAL BUT WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. NISSAN HAS HAD AN ENDEMIC PROBLEM WITH PRIOR YEARS ACROSS MULTIPLE MODELS WITH THIS EXACT PROBLEM WITH CVT. THIS IS CLEARLY A CONTINUING DESIGN DEFECT. VEHICLE LOST POWER AND SPEED SUDDENLY ON THE INTERSTATE. ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT AS TRUCKS RAN UP ON THE CAR TILL IT COULD BE PULLED OVER SAFELY.

TRAVELING VIA THE INTERSTATE FRO KY TO GA AT ABOUT 70 MPH. VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE BEYOND 35 MPH. DANGEROUS AS OTHER VEHICLES TRAVELING AT 70 MPH OR ABOVE CAME CLOSE TO REAR ENDING MY VEHICLE. OTHER VEHICLES DANGEROUSLY TAILGATED. OBVIOUS RECALL ISSUE AS THERE IS A HISTORY/PATTERN OF THIS BEHAVIOR IN LIKE VEHICLES AND YET NO RECALL ISSUED, VERY DISAPPOINTING!

JUST BOUGHT A USED 2013 NISSAN ROGUE 2 WEEKS AGO, IT HAS 51K MILES ON IT AND IT HAS ALL OF THE SAME PROBLEMS LISTED BY EVERYONE ELSE IN THESE REVIEWS IN REGARDS TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION. AFTER RESEARCHING TO SEE WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG WITH THIS CAR I AM SEEING ALL OF THE DECELERATION ISSUES, NOTABLY ON INCLINES AND I ALSO CANNOT BELIEVE THERE IS NO MANUFACTURERS RECALL. A PROBLEM I'M NOT SURE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS ENCOUNTERED WAS AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS OF USE, TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC FROM A PARKING LOT OR OUT OF A TOOL BOOTH THERE IS ZERO POWER, I CAN'T EXPRESS HOW DANGEROUS THIS IS. NISSAN PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, WE ARE HARD WORKING PEOPLE AND NONE OF US WILL EVER CONSIDER ANOTHER NISSAN IF THIS CAN'T BE FIXED.

I AM HAVING THE SAME CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES AS A LOT OF PEOPLE. IT OVERHEATS WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR LONGER THAN 45 MINUTES ON A WARM DAY AND THE VEHICLE BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE AND CAN'T ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AND HAS LEFT MY FAMILY AND I STRANDED ON THE INTERSTATE A FEW TIMES NOW. I CAN'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE AT ALL AND FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. NISSAN CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHEN THEY HOOK IT UP TO THE COMPUTER BECAUSE THERE IS NO CODE ERROR AT THIS POINT AND IT WON'T DO IT WHEN THE DEALERSHIP IS JUST CRUISING AROUND TOWN FOR 15 MINUTES (SURPRISE SURPRISE AND A VERY CONVENIENT ISSUE FOR NISSAN). I HAVE A COMPLAINT FILED WITH NISSAN AND I AM BRINGING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR INSPECTION. I HOPE THEY ACTUALLY FIND SOMETHING BECAUSE IF THEY CAN'T ITS INCREDIBLY NEGLIGENT ON NISSAN'S PART AND IS A KNOWN ISSUE IT SEEMS FROM SIMPLE RESEARCH. A RECALL IS NEEDED ASAP. THIS IS INCREDIBLY UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSTATE AND THE CAR IS UNRESPONSIVE. NHTSA PLEASE DO SOMETHING.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT MY ROGUE AT THE AUTO NATION NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN MARIETTA. I BEGAN MY FIRST LONG DISTANCE TRIP BACK HOME ON THE HWY AND THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED. I HAD TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE TO PROPERLY ASSESS THE SITUATION. FIGURED IT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST A FLUKE, BEGAN TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD AND WITH MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR, THE CAR WOULD BARELY RUN. CALLED NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SUGGESTS THAT I TURN MY CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT BECAUSE IT'S OVERHEATING DUE TO GA WEATHER. NOW, IT IS HOT, BUT THERE ARE MILLIONS OF CARS IN GA THAT DON'T HAVE TO SIT EVERY HOUR YOU'RE ON THE ROAD. HE SAID AFTER THEN, TO JUST DRIVE ON THE HWY AT ABOUT 60MPH. SIR THIS IS THE INTERSTATE. NOT POSSIBLE. PEOPLE WILL RUN OVER YOU. TOOK IT RIGHT BACK TO NISSAN AND A FEW DAYS LATER, THEY STATED TO ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THEY DID NOT PROPERLY ASSESS THE SITUATION AS THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT HE DROVE IT ON THE CITY STREETS. I GET ONLINE AND RESEARCH ONLY TO FIND THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS, NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE. IT IS TERRIBLE. ESSENTIALLY, YOU'RE PAYING FOR A GLORIFIED SCOOTER! I NEED THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY!

CVT ISSUES. WHENEVER I AM DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS (OVER 60 MPH) UPHILL, MY TRANSMISSION FAILS. A COUPLE TIMES, THE CAR HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED. I HAVE FLOORED THE GAS PEDAL AND MY CAR STILL WON'T MOVE. THIS HAS BEEN VERY FRIGHTENING, AS I AM ON THE FREEWAY AND SOMEONE COULD VERY EASILY CRASH INTO ME WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FAILS. THERE HAS BEEN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE CVT FOR PREVIOUS MODELS BUT IT IS APPARENTLY STILL AN ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE CAR LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND POWER, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO DROP ITS SPEED TO BELOW 10 MPH. WE WERE UNABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE OFF THE FREEWAY DUE TO LACK OF A SHOULDER, WHEN WE FINALLY WERE ABLE TO GET SAFELY OFF THE FREEWAY, THE CAR SMELLED OF BURNING TRANSMISSION FLUID. AFTER THE CAR SAT FOR 30 MINUTES, WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE A SPEED OF NO MORE THAN 25 MPH TO THE NEAREST TOWN. WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A KNOW CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IN AS WHERE THE TRANSMISSION OIL WAS OVERHEATED CAUSING THE CAR TO GO INTO SAFE MODE. NISSAN ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THE FIX IS TO HAVE A TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER INSTALLED AT A COST OF $1200.00, IN WHICH WE HAVE TO PAY. THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE ON THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION SINCE BEFORE 2009. WE WERE ALMOST HIT ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FROM THE REAR BY VEHICLES THAT WERE APPROACHING US AT 60 MPH.

PURCHASED A USED 2013 NISSAN ROGUE AWD FROM HERTZ CAR SALES NOT EVEN A YEAR AGO. 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER HAS HAD 3 NEAR FATAL ACCIDENTS AS CAR LOSES ACCELERATION SUDDENLY WHILE SHE WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEED . IF SHE IS GOING UP A HILL, THE CAR GOES FROM 60 TO NOTHING AND SHE MUST QUICKLY PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY BEFORE SOMEONE BACK ENDS HER! WE ARE ALL DEATHLY AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE. WILL IT TAKE A DEATH BEFORE A RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE AND IT'S DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION IS INITIATED?

ABOUT 120 MILES INTO A TRIP TO VIRGINIA FROM HARTFORD, CT, MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER. MY CAR CURRENTLY ONLY HAS 68,709 MILES ON IT. THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON. FLOORING THE GAS PEDAL, I CONTINUOUSLY LOST POWER AND JUST PRAYED I WOULDN'T LOSE POWER WITH A SEMI TRUCK BEHIND ME. I MADE IT TO VIRGINIA, BUT ON MY WAY BACK I WAS CLIMBING A HILL AND MY ACCELERATION DECREASED DRAMATICALLY. THE CAR BEGAN TO BUCK AND I COULD ONLY GO ABOUT 35 MILES PER HOUR UP THE HILL. WHEN I GOT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL AND GRAVITY TOOK OVER, THE PROBLEM ENDED. WITHIN A WEEK AFTER FINALLY GETTING HOME, I TOOK THE CAR TO HARTE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN HARTFORD, CT. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY CVT, A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE ENTIRE COST OF REPAIR. AS I DROVE AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP, A LOW GRUMBLING AND GRINDING NOISE COULD BE HEARD. THE CAR WAS BUCKING BADLY FROM ABOUT 15-40MPH. I TURNED AROUND AND HAD THEM LOOK AT IT AGAIN AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS IN THE PROCESS OF DYING. I DROVE AWAY AGAIN AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THE CAR WAS LOSING POWER ON ACCELERATION, UNTIL FINALLY, WITHIN ABOUT A 1/4 MILE AWAY FROM MY HOME, THE CAR BUCKED ONE LAST TIME AND STOPPED MOVING. AGAIN, THIS WAS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION WITH CARS COMING UP VERY CLOSE BEHIND ME. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN USA AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CVT FOR ROGUES ONLY UP TO 2010. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM HAS EXTENDED FAR BEYOND 2010 TO OTHER ROGUES, INCLUDING MINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE ACCELERATION. WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000.

WHILE DRIVING SPEED THE LIMIT OF 70MPH MY CAR REDUCE SPEED TO 40MPH...ON THE HIGHWAY .I COULD NOT INCREASE THE SPEED... I TRY BYY PUSHING THE PADDLE TO THE FLOOR IT STILL WOULD NOT INCREASE SPEED. NOW IT BEGAN TO MAKE NOISE AS IF IT HAD A COLD AND THE ENGINE LITE COMES ON. SO I STOP AT AUTO ONE TO HAVE IT CHECK AND IT SAID THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER WAS HAVING PROBLEM. SINCE THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM . I WENT TO MY MECHANIC..AND HE CHECK EVERYTHING TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG..CHANGE THE OIL, AND ALL SUPPOSE TO BE REPLACE. AND ALSO ADDED A CLEANING FLUID TO CLEAN OUT ANY CLOGS AND DIRT... NOW IT'S BEEN SIX MONTH AND ONCE AGAIN I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE CVT..SO NOW I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. SAME THING ...OIL CHANGE AND SO ON. I VERY SCAR NOW BECAUSE MY CAR IS REACTING BADLY AND NO ONE CAN'T SEE THE PROBLEM. SO I GOOGLE MY PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT 7 PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR NISSAN RROGUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE MAKING OF THIS MODEL CAR . AND IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT CAN BE FIX WITHOUT TAKING THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY APART WHICH WILL COST 3,000 AND NOT INCLUDED LABOR... I PURCHASE MY CAR TWO YEARS AGO IT SHOULD NOT BE ACTING THIS WAY AND NEITHER SHOULD THE SEVEN OTHER PEOPLE THAT PURCHASE THESE VEHICLE. WHEN WILL SOMEONE CORRECT THIS WHEN SOMEONE GET SERIOUSLY HURT.

BROUGHT OUR VEHICLE TO THE DEALER 6/21/16 TO BE SERVICED FOR FAILURE TO ACCELERATE AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT INTERSECTIONS. AT FIRST WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE CVT AND WE'D NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THEN THEY REPLACED A VALVE AND SAID IT WAS FINE. TWO DAYS LATER THE CAR JERKS AND SHUDDERS WHILE DRIVING BELOW 45 MPH AND VIOLENTLY SHUDDERS AND SHAKES WHILE STATIONARY; FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS PUSHING IT. MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT WENT ON AFTER THIS. BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A "MISFIRE" AND THAT IT'S COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM THE PREVIOUS PROBLEM. WAITING TO HEAR THE DIAGNOSIS. SEEING MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH MOST RELATING TO THE CVT. IT'S VERY SCARY TO BE IN THE CAR WITH MY KIDS WHEN IT WAS JERKING AND SHUDDERING.

WE WERE TAKING A TRIP TO WASHINGTON DC FROM FLORIDA AND WHEN WE GOT ONTO 95 I TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON TO SET AT 75 ABOUT AN HOUR LATER IT STARTED LOOSING ACCELERATION. TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF AND KEPT LOSING ACCELERATION . HAD TO LET CARS PASS SO I COULD GET OVER INTO RIGHT LANE TO GET OFF ON EXIT. LET THE CAR SIT FOR 30 MINUTES.PROCEEDED TO HEAD BACK HOME WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL AND CAR DID FINE. VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE. I GUESS SOMEONE HAS TO DIE TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM. I RESEARCHED COMPLAINTS AND THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2010 ROGUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

DURING MY TRAVEL FROM MARYLAND TO OHIO. MY NISSAN ROGUE 2013 EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS GOING UP MOUNTAINS IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TRAVEL. THE SUV WOULD NOT GO PASS 45MPH EVEN WHEN I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. I TOOK THE SUV TO THE FIRST NISSAN DEALER THAT I SAW AT MY DESTINATION AND WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS "SLIPPING" AND THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS OVERHEATED. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS TRANSMISSION WAS DANGEROUS. IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH/COLLISION AND COULD HAVE INJURED OR KILLED MY CHILDREN AND I.
