  I HAVE A CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. MY CAR SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. AAMCO IS TELLING ME I WILL NEED ONE SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT, THEY RAN CODES AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG BUT I NEEDED A OVER 1200.00 EXTERNAL COOING SYSTEM AND IT IS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEN I GET A CALL AND ITS NOT. I TOOK IT TO THERE OTHER DEALERSHIP AND THE SALESPERSON AND MECHANIC SAID THERE WAS A PROBLEM...IT STARTED OUT LOOSING POWER AND DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THATS KINDA SCARY.

  12/22/2018 MY NISSAN ROGUE CAUGHT FIRE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. WE WERE ONLY ALERTED BECAUSE THE HORN DEFAULTED BECAUSE OF THE FIRE. FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE WITH SOME DIFFICULTY. THEY ASSURED US IT WAS ELECTRICAL. INSURANCE CO. TOTALED THE CAR. UPON MY OWN RESEARCH THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. NISSAN HAS NOT ACCEPTED RESPONSIBILITY IN ANY OF THEM. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE STRESS AND FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY LAYS WITH THE CUSTOMERS.

  I AM GOING TO BE ON MY THIRD COMPRESSOR REPLACEMENT FOR THIS VEHICLE WITH A LITTLE OVER 100,000 MILES ON IT. THE DEFROST AND THE A/C ARE AFFECTED. IT IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS IN THE WINTER IN NEW ENGLAND WHEN MY DEFROST IS SUB-PAR AND IMPEDES VISIBILITY. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS ISSUE IN THIS VEHICLE AND IT SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE ON THE BURDEN OF THE CONSUMER TO CONTINUALLY PAY FOR THIS!

• 12/21/2022· POWER TRAIN

  November 21,2022 while driving my husband to the hospital for major surgery the transmission malfunctioned in our car (it was 16 degrees outside). We had to very slowly drive it back home and take our other car to the hospital. Some days after this we got it to our mechanic where he confirmed it was the transmission that needed to be replaced. It has not yet been inspected by anyone either than our mechanic. It is inoperable at this time. There were no warning lamps or messages that appeared prior to the failure.

• 12/21/2020· POWER TRAIN

  AT APPROXIMATELY 53,500 MILES, WHILE ON A LONG TRIP, THE VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A 'WHEEZING' NOISE AND EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF POWER. IT CONTINUES TO DEMONSTRATE THE SAME BEHAVIOR WHENEVER THE ENGINE WARMS UP. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT I TOOK IT TO SAID THAT THE LIKELY TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WAS COMMON IN NISSAN ROGUES, MURANOS AND VERSAS. I HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT BY TWO OTHER INDEPENDENT MECHANICS WHO AGREED IT WAS A DETERIORATION IN THE WORKINGS OF THE TRANSMISSION AND THAT NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM IN MULTIPLE MODELS AND MODEL YEARS.

  As I am steering, the horn goes off at any moment for a long period of time distracting many drivers and scaring them half to death on the road ! This is an incident that has been going on for a while, and there are many other people that I have came across with the same problem. This is my only car and I have no idea who to turn to, but the amount of money for a Nissan that is in great condition and has never been in an accidents seems to have allot of electrical failures.

  12/16/18 FILLED FULL TANK OF GAS. RANGE SHOWED 297 WHEN NORMALLY IT SHOWS 320-330 MILES ON A FULL TANK. 12/18/18 AM, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. 12/18/18, PM 225 MILE RANGE, FUEL GAUGE AT 3/4. 12/19/18 AM, 212 MILES 3/4 FUEL. 12/19/18 AM 194 MILES, 3/4 GAUGE. 12/19/18 CALLED LOCAL NISSAN DEALER. 12/19/18 FILED REPORT TO NHTSA. FUEL GAUGE IS REPORTING 3/4 TANK (STOPPED MOVING). THE RANGE OF MILES ON A FULL TANK IS INCORRECT AND INACCURATE. SINCE THE FUEL GAUGE IS STUCK AT 3/4 FULL AND MY MILE READING IS INCORRECT, I DO NO KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN MY VEHICLE UNLESS I TRACK THE ODOMETER START AND SUBTRACT 300 (TO BE SAFE).

• 12/16/2018· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  WHENEVER MY CAR IS IN MOTION, WHEN TRYING TO CLIMB A HILL, IT WOULD STOP AUTOMATICALLY. AND OFTEN TIMES, I WOULD HAVE TO REVERSE MY CAR, TURN IT OFF AND GENTLY DRIVE IT UP THE HILL FOR FEAR THAT IT MAY SHUT ITSELF OFF. I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE THE AIR MASS FLOW 3 TIMES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE SEPTEMBER, AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP, THE DIAGNOSES CAME BACK AS THE AIR MASS FLOW, AFTER I HAVE JUST REPLACED IT. THE CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY NOT GET GAS FOR NO APPARENT REASONS. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY ANY LONGER.

• 12/15/2018· POWER TRAIN

  VEHICLE HAD CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 90,000 MILES. CAR SPEED UNCONTROLLABLE BETWEEN SLOW OR TOO FAST ON THE HIGHWAY. NISSAN DEALER INDICATED TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING, BUT WOULD NOT REPLACE IT. I FILED WITH NISSAN CONSUMER SERVICES TO CHECK VEHICLE SINCE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURES ARE BEING REPAIRED BY OTHER CAR MANUFACTURERS. NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND MECHANIC AGREED THIS IS A FAILURE ON THE COMPANY'S SIDE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AT A COST OF $6,000 AND THERE ARE STILL ISSUES WITH THE BOOT AND FRONT CASE TRANSFERS THAT ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I'M REQUESTING FOR NISSAN TO ISSUE A RECALL AGAINST FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND REPLACE THESE SINCE THESE ARE DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY.

• 12/14/2019· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  I REPORTED A FIRE COMPLAINT BACK IN THE SUMMER TO YOU ON THIS VEHICLE. NOW MY ACCELERATOR JUST SUDDENLY QUITS WORKING. I REPORTED THIS TO DOWNTOWN NASHVILLE NISSAN AROUND JUNE 2019. THEY SAID NO CODE CAME UP. IT HAS SINCE BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE. TWICE WHEN I WAS TRYING TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE. TWO WEEKS AGO IT HAPPENED FIVE TIMES IN A ROW AND WOULDN'T GO OVER 30 MPH. WHEN I WOULD LET COMPLETELY OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND PUSH IT AGAIN IT JUMPS LIKE ALL OF THE ENERGY BUSTS THROUGH AT ONCE. I HAVE SINCE DONE RESEARCH AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE STILL ONLY HAS LESS THAN 59,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM SURE PEOPLE HAVE HAD TO HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF IT BUT SINCE THEY ARE DEAD THEY CAN'T REPORT IT. I HAVE MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS AND IT MAKES THE SAFETY ISSUE EVEN WORSE. I CAN'T WALK VERY FAR IF I GET STRANDED. IF I DON'T GET REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE BEFORE THAT HAPPENS. NISSAN IS VERY AWARE OF THIS. EVEN ROGUES WITH 8,000 MILES ARE DOING THIS. IT ISN'T A MATTER OF JUST BEING STRANDED SOMEWHERE. VEHICLE WAS MOVING EVERY TIME ON INTERSTATE AND CITY STREETS. THE VEHICLE WON'T SHOW A CODE TO THE DEALER SO THEY SAY I HAVE TO TAKE A VIDEO WITH MY FOOT PUSHING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR AND SHOWING THE SPEED THAT I AM GOING. NEVER MIND THAT I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON THE INTERSTATE IN A VEHICLE THAT IS FAILING. THE DATE I AM GIVING YOU IS JUST THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED.

• 12/11/2018· UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  WHEN I GO LONG DISTANCE IN MY ROUGE THE TRANSMISSION SLOWS ME DO TO AROUND 35 TO 40 MILES AN HOUR GOING UP HILLS AND WHEN YOU STOP AND GO WHEN YOU HIT THE GAS IS DOESN'T SEEM TO WANT TO GO. UNSAFE ON THE FREEWAY IT'S GOING TO KILL SOMEBODY AND I HOPE ITS LOOKED INTO BEFORE THIS HAPPENS. I BOUGHT THIS SO I HAD A FAMILY TRUSTED VEHICLE FOR TRIPS AND I WOULD NEVER DRIVE IT FOR THE REASONS MENTIONED SOMETIMES IN TOWN BUT MOSTLY ON THE HIGHWAY

• 12/08/2016· UNKNOWN OR OTHER

  THE AUTOMATIC LOCK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS STOPPED WORKING WHEN IT IS "COLD" OUTSIDE. IT WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN LAST YEAR AND DETERMINED THAT THE LOCK HAD GOTTEN "TOO COLD" AND THAT MANY OTHER ROGUES HAD BEEN SEEN FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED.

  I was looking at the fact that this car has 2 recalls for problems that I never bothered to check, but it's better to have everything in order. everything is in order.

• 12/02/2019· POWER TRAIN

  I HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED IN AUGUST. I ORIGINALLY HAD TROUBLES IN MAY (CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND I HAD MY FOOT PEDAL ON THE FLOOR TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON THE INTERSTATE (40 MPH BEING PASSED BY SEMIS WITHOUT ANYWHERE SAFE TO PULLOVER) AND BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. IN AUGUST I HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME MY TRANSMISSION WAS TOAST AND I NEEDED ANOTHER ONE. THEY TOLD ME THAT IF I DID NOT INSTALL THE COOLING KIT, IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO AAMCO FOR A SECOND OPINION. HE AGREED THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND A COOLING KIT ADDED AS THIS IS COMMON WITH THE NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSION. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON AND THIS CAR WAS NOT SAFE ON THE ROAD. NISSAN CLEARLY KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR TRANSMISSIONS IN THIS MODEL AND ADMIT TO NEEDING AN ADD-ON COOLING KIT TO ADDRESS. IT WAS NEGLIGENT OF THE DEALERSHIP TO LET ME DRIVE OFF OF THE LOT IN MAY. IT IS NOW DECEMBER AND I AM HAVING TROUBLES WITH MY CAR AGAIN. WHEN I FIRST TURN MY CAR ON, IT MAKES A WHINING NOISE WITH PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. MY MECHANIC BELIEVES THIS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND I WILL BE BRINGING MY CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SEE. I ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON IN AUGUST AND MY CAR MAKING NOISES WITH CHANGING GEARS. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS DUE TO THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. BUT, I AM STILL HAVING TROUBLES AND NOW I AM TOLD IT IS THE TRANSMISSION AGAIN. I AM NOT CONVINCED THAT ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE NOT ALL RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION. NISSAN KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND ARE ALLOWING PEOPLE TO DRIVE WITH AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

• 12/02/2018· POWER TRAIN

  I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 60 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THE ACCELERATION DROPPED DOWN TO 10-20 MPH IN TRAFFIC WITH OTHER CARS SPEEDING TOWARD ME. I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BUT COULD NOT -- PUTTING MYSELF AND FELLOW MOTORISTS IN GRAVE DANGER. I COULD BARELY MAKE THE CAR GO 10 TO 20 MPH TO MAKE IT TO AN OFF RAMP TO TRY TO GET TO SAFETY. MY 2012 NISSAN ROGUE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THERE IS A REPEATED HISTORY OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE BY NISSANS INCLUDING THE ROGUE. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND EXTENDED WARRANTY TO COVER SOME YEARS AND MODELS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAVE NOT COVERED OTHERS YET THERE ARE REPEATED COMPLAINTS. NISSAN IS FULLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM YET HAS PUT MYSELF AND OTHER MOTORISTS AT RISK. I CALLED THE NEAREST NISSAN REPAIR SERVICE CENTER TO TELL THEM A TOW TRUCK WOULD BE BRINING MY NISSAN THERE. I BARELY STARTED TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED AND IMMEDIATELY THE SERVICE CENTER PERSON SAID HE KNEW WHAT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION AND ASKED FOR MY VIN SO HE COULD SEE IF IT WAS COVERED BY THE EXTRA WARRANTY NISSAN GRANTED SOME MODELS. IT DID NOT. IT WILL COST $5,400 TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION AND COMPLETE REPAIRS WHICH I WILL ASK THE SERVICE CENTER TO COMPLETE. HOWEVER, A RECALL SHOULD BE PLACED ON 2012 NISSAN ROGUES FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM IS PUTTING PEOPLE'S LIVES AT RISK.

• 11/29/2022· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SEATS

  The driver seat would not come back up after I used the recline button. There is no sound when I push the button to raise seat back up from the reclined position. The side airbags on driver seat back are not able to protect me if there is an accident. I do not use the recline function often so I don't have a history if when it stopped functioning.

• 11/29/2019· POWER TRAIN

  AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS IN JAN 2018 THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DEALER SAID THE CAR NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. ON DEC 6TH, 2018 I PAID $3667.16 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY DUE TO THE MILES I DRIVE. NOW IN NOV OF 2019. WHEN AT TRAFFIC I STEP ON THE GAS AND THE CAR WILL NOT GO. ITS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE I GET REAR-ENDED AT A LIGHT. ASF 11/29/19 THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES AND COUNTING. I SHUT THE CAR OFF THE RESTART AND THE CARGOES THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT EVEN A YEAR OLD AND IS GIVING ME A PROBLEM.

I FILL THE CAR UP WITH GAS AND THE GAUGE STAYS AT 3/4 OF A TANK. IT DOES NOT MOVE, LETTING ME KNOW WHEN I AM FULL OR EMPTY ON GAS.

  ON 10/30/15, I WAS DRIVING MY NISSAN ROGUE AND PULLED OUT AT A LIGHT IN ABINGDON, VA ONTO A MAIN HIGHWAY. IT WAS DARK AND AROUND 7:00 P.M. AND HAD JUST BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY MADE A REALLY LOUD NOISE THAT SOUNDED ALMOST LIKE DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH A FLAT AND THEN THERE WAS AN ODOR THAT SMELLED LIKE SOMETHING ON FIRE. I GAVE IT GAS, BUT IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED AS I WAS PUSHING THE GAS TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD AND UNABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE. I HAD MY 10 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER IN HER CAR SEAT IN THE REAR OF THE CAR. WITH HELP I WAS ABLE TO PUSH VEHICLE PARTIALLY OUT OF THE ROAD. MY DAUGHTER AND I SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR ALMOST THREE HOURS BEFORE A TOW TRUCK CAME TO PICK US UP. I CONTACTED NISSAN IN BRISTOL AND WAS TOLD THAT THE POWER TRAIN IS NOT UNDER ANY WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 81,000 MILES ON IT. I THOUGHT THE VEHICLE HAD A 5 YEAR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY, BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT THE CASE. MY CONCERN IS I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION GOING OUT. TOOK VEHICLE TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP AND WAS TOLD THE TORQUE HAD LITERALLY EXPLODED SENDING METAL THROUGHOUT THE TRANSMISSION. AFTER RESEARCHING, I SAW WHERE NISSAN HAD REIMBURSED PEOPLE FOR TRANSMISSIONS AND EXTENDED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY TO 10 YEARS/120,000 MILES. IT HAS A CVT TRANSMISSION. I WAS WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR OVER 2 WEEKS. THE VEHICLE HAS SINCE BEEN REPAIRED BUT THERE IS STILL A NOISE AND THE REPAIRMAN SAID THAT I WAS GOING TO NEED TO GET A DRIVESHAFT FOR THE VEHICLE AS IT HAD BEEN DAMAGED AS WELL. I AM STILL PAYING ON THIS VEHICLE AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. MY HUSBAND CONTACTED NISSAN AND HE WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I CONTACT NISSAN ON 11/16/15 AND WAS TOLD IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY UNTIL 1/13/16. BUT I HAD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT A NISSAN DEALER. VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY AMOCO ASKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT.

  The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while in reverse(R) an abnormal dragging sound was coming from the vehicle while depressing the brake pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer on three separate occasions however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. On the fourth occasion, the contact was advised by her husband to have the dealer check the brake rotors and calipers. The dealer then discovered that the parts were defective, and the parts were replaced; however, after the repair was performed the failure persisted. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON TO THE RAMP OF I85 IN GA, VEHICLE IN MOTION, WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. I CONTACTED NISSAN TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AS THEY TOLD ME THAT UNLESS IT SHOWED NEGLECT ON MY BEHALF, THEY WOULD THEY BE WILLING TO HELP. THEY EXPLAINED TO ME TO BRING THE ROGUE TO HE NEAREST DEALERSHIP TO DO A DIAGNOSTICS TEST. WHEN I WENT TO TURN ON THE CAR TO TAKE TO DEALERSHIP, THE CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE. THE CAR WAS ONLY ABLE TO DRIVE IN REVERSE. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TOW IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF THE VEHICLE SITTING IN THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS CONTACTED ME BACK AS THEY MADE A DECISION TO DENY HELPING ME. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AS THE CAR IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE HISTORY OF NISSAN ROGUE AND IT SEEMS THAT THEY HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THIS IN THE PAST. THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THE TOTAL EXPENSE WOULD BE MY DUTY. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I WAS INFORMED BY NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO FILE A COMPLAINT AS TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. I KNOW THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH NISSAN IN THE PAST YEARS.

IT WASN'T CONSTANT AND I COULDN'T PIN POINT WHEN IT WAS ACCURING BUT IT HAPPENED ENOUGH. READ ALL SORTS OF THINGS AND SIMIALR STORIES WITH THESE NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS, SO I CALLED THE DEALER (CARMAX) AND THEY SET UP AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK IT IN. THEIR GUYS AGREED ADND SEND IT TO A LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AS IT'S UNDER WARRANTY, THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER IS TRYING TO SAY IT MIGHT BE THE WHEEL BEARINGS. I'M BESIDE MYSELF AND THE CARMAX SERVICE PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING FOR ME AS THEY AGREE WITH ME. MY RESEARCH SHOWS NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THIS EXACT PROBLEM OVER SEVERAL NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS ON NUMEROUS MAKES OF VEHICLES.

  THE VEHICLE AT 76K MILES STARTED TO EXPERIENCE SLIPPING WHILE DRIVING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR ADDITIONALLY STRUGGLED TO OBTAIN SPEED WHEN STARTING FROM IDLE, STOPPED AT RED LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, ETC. AND WOULD JOLT FORWARDED. THE CAR SENT BACK A P0700 CODE FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES WITH ADDITIONAL CODES FOR SHIFTING ERRORS. AFTER TAKING IT TO TWO MECHANICS AND BEING 2 YEARS OUTSIDE OF THE MODELS WITH EXTENDED 10 YEAR WARRANTIES AND 1 YEAR OUTSIDE OF THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY I HAVE TO PAY 4500.00 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION OUT OF POCKET. THE CVT PROBLEMS AFTER 2010 MODELS ARE CLEARLY NOT FIX AND THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH MYSELF OR MY FAMILY. THE FACT THERE IS NOT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON NEWER MODELS OR A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSIONS IN UNACCEPTABLE. THIS VERY EASILY COULD HAVE ENDED IN AN ACCIDENT OR INJURY.

  I OWN A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. I PURCHASED IT USED IN 2015 WITH APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES ON IT. IN ABOUT APRIL OF 2018 I STARTED EXPERIENCING THE CAR NOT ACCELERATING AFTER DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY. I WOULD BE DRIVING 65-75 MPH AND SUDDENLY THE CAR WOULD SLOW DOWN AND NOT ACCELERATE. THIS IS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC MIND YOU. I WOULD PULL OVER AND SIT FOR ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES. AFTER THAT TIME I WOULD RESTART THE CAR AND THE CAR WOULD DRIVE AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. I WOULD EXPERIENCE THIS EACH TIME I WOULD GET ON THE EXPRESSWAY AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 50-60 MINUTES. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING. I COULD NOT GET ANOTHER CAR DUE TO THE FACT THAT I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF PAYING FOR THIS CAR AND OWE TOO MUCH TO TRADE IT. IN JULY 2018 I DID NOT HAVE TO TRAVEL THE EXPRESSWAY AS MUCH. I THOUGHT THAT I COULD CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR THINKING IF I DIDN'T TRAVEL THAT FAR I MAY BE OK UNTIL I GET THE CAR PAID DOWN SOME MORE. TO MY SURPRISE THAT JUST DID NOT HAPPEN. IN AUGUST 2018 I STARTED HEARING A KNOCKING SOUND AND TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC TO FIND OUT THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS BAD. SOME OF HIS CUSTOMERS BROUGHT THEIR NISSAN ROGUE'S TO HIM WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX AND A USED PART MAY NOT BE THE ANSWER DUE TO THE FACT THAT ALL OF THE ROGUE'S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WELL, AT THIS POINT I AM WITHOUT TRANSPORTATION. THE KNOCKING TURNED INTO A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR, AS IF EVERYTHING UNDERNEATH WAS ON THE VERGE OF FALLING OFF. I CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY HOME BECAUSE THE MECHANIC CANNOT FIND A SUITABLE USED PART TO REPLACE THE PROBLEM AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED WITH A NEW PART. SO I ALSO AM PAYING FOR A CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE. NISSAN REALLY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, AS IT IS A DEFECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER.
