2008 Nissan Rogue

PLEASE HELP US HAVE NISSAN DO A RECALL ON THE ENGINE. I HAVE HAD MY NISSAN ROUGE FOR ABOUT 4 YEARS. I WAS DRIVING MY CAR FROM SAN FRANCISCO TO LOS ANGELES. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 70 MILES PER HOUR WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY VEHICLE STARTED TO REDUCE SPEED. THIS HAPPENED LATER IN THE NIGHT SO THERE WASN'T MUCH TRAFFIC. IF IT WAS DURING RUSH HOUR I AM PRETTY SURE THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. EVERY TIME I WOULD I TRIED TO INCREASE SPEED IT WOULD. I HAD TO DRIVE AT ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR UNTIL I FOUND A SAFE PLACE TO STOP. I HAD TO WAIT FOR ABOUT 3 HOURS AND THE TRIED DRIVING AGAIN AND IT WORKED FINE. I CAN'T TAKE THIS VEHICLE ON TRIPS ANY MORE BECAUSE I AM SCARED THIS MAY HAPPEN AGAIN. I HOPE THIS CAN BE RECALLED AND FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE REALLY GETS HURT IF NO HAS BEEN YET. *TR

THIS IS ONE OF SEVERAL SIMILAR INCIDENTS. I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP TO NYC, DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON AT 73 MPH. IN ALL INCIDENTS, I NOTICED THAT AFTER HAVING THE CRUISE ON FOR OVER AN HOUR, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CRUISE WOULD JUST "KICK OFF". IT WOULD STOP WORKING. AND MY CAR WOULD START TO DECELERATE. BEING ON A MAIN HIGHWAY, TRAVELING 73 MPH WITH EVERYONE AROUND ME GOING EQUALLY AS FAST, IF NOT FASTER, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN DECELERATING WAS LIKE PUTTING ON THE BRAKES WITH NO BRAKE LIGHTS. IT WAS POSITIVELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, AFTER IT GOT DOWN TO BETWEEN 60 AND 65, IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I PUT MY FOOT TO THE FLOOR AND THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION. I GOT INTO THE RIGHT HAND LANE AS QUICKLY AS I COULD, AND PRAYED THE ENTIRE TIME TO NOT BE KILLED. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE UP TO 70. BUT THE CRUISE WOULD JUST KICK OFF AS SOON AS I SET IT AGAIN. MADDENING, DANGEROUS AND SCARY. AND IT HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE. EXACTLY THE SAME WAY EACH TIME. AND ONLY AFTER BEING IN THE CAR WITH CRUISE ON FOR OVER AN HOUR. *TR

THE CVT TRANSMISSION IN THE 2008 NISSAN ROGUE IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION AFTER TRAVELING A DISTANCE (OVER 40 MILES) AND WHEN IT COMES TO A STOP, IT WILL NOT TAKE OFF. SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 2013 I DROVE FROM COLLEGE STATION, TX TO HOUSTON, TX (85 MILES). WHEN I CAME A STOP SIGN AFTER EXITING THE FREEWAY, I STOPPED AND THEN ATTEMPTED A RIGHT TURN INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ONCE I DEPRESSED THE GAS, THE CAR ROLLED INTO THE INTERSECTION AND STALLED WITH TRAFFIC BARRELING TOWARD ME. CARS HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING ME. THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS HAD ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT IT AND NO WARNING LIGHTS EVER COME ON. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR BROKE DOWN WAS ON THE FIRST ROAD TRIP I TOOK IN THE CAR. IN 2012 AS I WAS DRIVING TO ATLANTA, GEORGIA AND THE CAR BROKE COMPLETELY DOWN IN BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA. I HAD TO GET A LOANER FROM THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN BIRMINGHAM TO COMPLETE MY TRIP. THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS A VERY, VERY DANGEROUS TECHNOLOGY AND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND A CLASS ACTION SUIT SHOULD BE INITIATED AGAINST NISSAN. NISSAN HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FROM 60000 TO 120000 IN ALL CVT TRANSMISSION VEHICLES. WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS IF THEY DO NOT THINK THERE IS A PROBLEM. *TR

I WAS TURNING FROM A RESIDENTIAL STREET ONTO A MAIN ROAD, WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE THE CAR RED LINED, BUT DID NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO GO 5-10 MILES AN HOUR. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER WITHOUT GETTING HIT AND HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AND I WAS TOLD THIS HAD HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES WITH THE CVT IN THE ROGUE. *TR

PROBLEM IN JULY 2012- AT A STOP LIGHT , WENT TO ACCELERATE, AND NOTHING,, KEPT PUSHING GAS PEDAL,, TOOK OUT OF DRIVE AND PUT BACK IN , FINALLY WENT., KEPT DOING THIS AT UNEXPECTED TIMES. NO SERVICE LIGHT WENT ON. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, $600.00, LATER, THEY SAID IT WAS MY ACCELERATION CABLE, AND REPLACED IT.. STATED TRANSMISSION HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.. STILL NOT RUNNING WELL, STILL MAKES WHINING NOISE - MARCH 2013 STARTED DOING SAME THING WITH ACCELERATION. , ALMOST GOT KILLED TAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND NO ACCELERATION. MAKING HIGH PITCH NOISE @ 50-60 MILES.TOOK TO DEALERSHIP -SAID IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION FLUID, IT WAS OVERFILLED AND BAD COLOR?. $ 200 TO CHANGE FLUID, STILL NOT AGREEING TO CHANGE OUT TRANSMISSION. I LOOKED ON LINE , A TON OF COMPLAINTS ON SAME ISSUES.. ALL RESULTING IN THE CVT- HOW DO I GET THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX PROBLEM? *TR

THE CAR WOULD LOSE ACCELERATION WHEN DRIVING AND ALSO WHEN STARTING TO GO FROM BEING STOPPED. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS DRIVING AROUND 60 MPH ON HIGHWAY AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS FULLY TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WOULD NOT INCREASE IN SPEED. THE CAR LOST SPEED AND DECREASED DOWN TO 45 MPH. WHEN GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY AT THE END OF THE EXIT THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS. 5 SECONDS LATER THE CAR THRUSTED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AS POWER KICKED BACK IN. AFTER SEVERAL PHONE CALLS TO NISSAN AND TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AT AROUND 60,000 MILES. CARE WAS GOOD FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS BUT STARTED HAVING SAME ISSUE. HAVE HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP 10 - 12 TIMES WITH SAME ISSUE AND TO THIS DAY IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THEY USUALLY STATE THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. TEST DROVE THE CAR WITH THEIR TOP MECHANIC AND GOT THE ACCELERATION ISSUE TO HAPPEN. THEY MECHANIC SAID NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HE DRAINED FLUIDS SAYING THE LEVEL WAS TO HIGH. 6 MONTHS LATER SAME ISSUES AGAIN. TRIP AFTER TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAY THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND SEND US ON OUR WAY. LAST TIME 3 OTHER CUSTOMERS WERE AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH SAME ISSUE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. *TR
