2009 Nissan Rogue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ROGUE. AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY JERKED FORWARD. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INTAKE VALVE HOSE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR FILTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

WHEN I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR OVER AN HOUR GOING 80 MPH, THE VECHICLE QUICKLY DECCELERATED AND WHEN I STEPPED ON THE PEDAL FOR GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR IT DID NOT ACCELERATE. IT WAS VERY SCARY SINCE THERE WERE ARE TRAVELING BEHIND ME AND I WAS AFRAID THEY WOULD CRASH INTO ME. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY TIME I TAKE MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING FOR OVER AN HOUR FOR THE PAST YEAR. I AM TERRIFIED I AM GOING TO CAUSE A CRASH WHILE TRAVELING WITH MY CHILD, THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD.

WHILE DRIVING A HIGHWAY ON 65 MPH SUDDEN LOSS OF ACCELERATION OCCURS. PRESSING THE ACCELERATION PEDAL DOES NOT MAKE ANY EFFECT ON A CAR SPEED. RPM FALLS TO 1-2K AND DID NOT GOES UP. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND STOP. AFTER 15 MINUTES WITH THE ENGINE TURNED OFF, PROBLEM DISAPPEARS. THIS HAPPENED FOR THE THIRD TIME, AS A PREVIOUSLY,IT OCCURS AFTER A LONG DRIVE (MORE THAN 3 HOURS) OR ON A HIGH SPEED (MORE THAN 75 MPH). IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN WHEN A CAR DECELERATED FROM 65 TO 30 MPH ON A HIGHWAY.

WIFE TURNING LEFT AT STOP LIGHT. STEPPED ON GAS PEDAL AND VERY LITTLE ACCELERATION, ALMOST T-BONED. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, AND WITH NO WARNING. I WAS DRIVING TO THE DEALER AND IT HAPPENED TO ME. STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT AND THEN THE PROBLEM WAS GONE. THE DEALER SAID THE BREAK SWITCH WAS THE PROBLEM. I DECLINED REPAIRS BECAUSE EVERY TIME I TAKE THE ROGUE TO CHECK AND REPAIRS SOMETHING ELSE NEED FIXING. I WILL TAKE FOR REPAIRS TO A AAA REPAIR SHOP NEAR MY HOME. WONDERING IF OTHER NISSAN ROGUE OWNER HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. THE SCARY THING IS THAT THERE IS NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH AND NO WARNING AT ALL. THANKS YOU.

THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME AND SINCE THEN IT HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOT BEEN ON AT ALL IT RANDOMLY OCCURS. IT SEEMS THAT IT WOULD BE AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION FOR A VEHICLE TO HESITATE IN REGARDS TO ACCELERATION. IT IS ANYWHERE FROM A 2-10 SECOND DELAY. I HAVE JUST LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG MANY OWNERS OF THE NISSAN ROGUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR WORSE DEAD. I AM SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE BUT WHEN I AM MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO TRAFFIC AND I'M MET WITH VEHICLES COMING TOWARDS ME AS MY VEHICLE HESITATES TO ACCELERATE I WOULD DEFINITELY CONSIDER THIS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE FOR BOTH ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WA TO CA I NOTICED WHILE DRIVING UP THE GREAT VINE MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE STARTED TO DECELERATE FROM 70 MPH TO 45-55 MPH, I HAD MY FOOT PRESSED PEDAL TO THE METAL WITH NO ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE JUST MADE IT BUT WHILE AT ANOTHER SLIGHT HILL MY VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING HOWEVER THIS TIME IT REDUCED TO SPEED THAT POSED A SAFETY CONCERN WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. THE SPEED DROPPED FROM 70 TO ABOUT 30 IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. MY INFANT SON AND WIFE WERE IN THE VEHICLE AS IT STARTED TO SHUT DOWN I MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE HIGHWAY BUT NOT BEFORE WE HAD BIG RIGS AND OTHER VEHICLES SLOW DOWN OR CHANGE LANES TO AVOID A COLLISION. MY VEHICLE WOULD NO LONGER MOVE NOR WOULD FOR I HAD ZERO ACCELERATION CAPABILITIES. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR IT POSES A SAFETY CONCERN THAT MAY CAUSE A SERIOUS INJURY, LAWSUIT AND EVEN DEATH TO AN OPERATOR, PASSENGER AND OR OTHERS. *TR

MY GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 80 EAST HEADING UP TO TRUCKEE. WHILE CLIMBING IN THE MOUNTAIN THE CAR LOST THE ABILITY TO REV HIGHER THAN 2500RPM. HER SPEED TROPPED FROM 65 TO 35 ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD AND WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY A SEMI. NO MATTER HOW MUCH GAS SHE GAVE THE CARE WOULD NOT GO FASTER THAN 35 MPH. SHE HAD TO PULL OVER OFF THE FREEWAY AND AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE CAR FOR 15 MINUTES EVERY RAN FINE. NOW ANY TIME WE DRIVE FOR MORE THAN 60 MINUTES WE LOOSE POWER AND HAVE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY TO LET THE CAR REST BECAUSE OF LOSS OF POWER. ALMOST BEEN IN TWO ACCIDENTS. *TR

MY 2009 NISSAN ROGUE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH BEING UNABLE TO ACCELERATE WHEN GOING UP AN INCLINE WITH SPEEDS OF 55MPH AND ABOVE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR ALMOST A YEAR. I'LL BE DOING 60-75MPH AND THEN I NOTICE THAT MY FOOT IS ON THE FLOOR BOARD AND I'M LOSING SPEED. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED (JULY 11, 2013) I LOST ALL SPEED AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. ON TOP OF IT I WASN'T ABLE TO GET MY CAR TO START FOR 20 MINUTES. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AFTER IT HAPPENED WHO SAID EVERYTHING WAS FINE, AND HE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. THE LOSS OF SPEED HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 5 OCCASIONS SINCE LAST SUMMER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED BETWEEN 70-75 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE. AFTER EXITING OFF THE INTERSTATE AND STOPPING AT THE STOP SIGN, I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE MOTOR WAS STILL RUNNING BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. THERE HAVE BEEN TWO OTHER INCIDENTS, 8/9/13 AND 10/10/13, WHEN I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE AND MY ROGUE STALLS AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND I HAD CARS BEHIND ME AND CARS IN THE RIGHT LANE. I PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND WAS EVENTUALLY ABLE TO GET OVER AND HAD JUST ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SAT FOR 5-10 MINUTES. I THEN PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND IT DROVE NORMAL. PEOPLE NEED TO BE MADE AWARE THAT THESE NISSAN VEHICLES WILL STALL WITHOUT WARNING AND IT SEEMS TO OCCUR MOST OFTEN WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS SO PASSING VEHICLES ON TWO WAY ROADS CAN BE DANGEROUS! I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY NISSAN THAT IT'S THE TRANSMISSION AND IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN.
