2010 Nissan Rogue

WE TRAVEL TO ORLANDO WHICH IS A 3 HOUR DRIVE WE GO 4 TIMES A YEAR AND THE ROGUE FAILS ON US AT LEAST 4 TIMES EVERY TRIP. AFTER AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY ARE VEHICLE STRUGGLES TO ACCELERATE WE GO FROM 80 TO 60 AND CAR FEELS LIKE IT STRUGGLES WITH THE PEDEL TO THE FLOOR. ALSO WHEN THE AC IS ON AND WE ARE AT A LIGHT THE CAR TRYS TO STALL. AND THE AIRBAGS ARE DEFECTIVE THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOESN'T RECOGNIZE ANYONE IN THE SEAT AND THE ONE ON THE DASH JUST BLINKS. I'M AFRAID THEY WON'T DEPLOY IF IN AN ACCIDENT. FIRST AND LAST NISSIAN WILL EVER BUY. THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION I THINK IS A DEATH WAITING TO HAPPEN BIG HAZARD. WE HAVE THIS VEHICLE FOR THREE YEARS AND SAME PROBLEM FROM DAY ONE

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, CAR WILL LOSE POWER. WE PRESS THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND CAR DECELERATES; THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO POWER. THE LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED 5/13/2016. WE WERE DRIVING AT ABOUT 80MPH; WE WERE ON A FLAT STRETCH OF ROAD AND THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST POWER; SPEED WENT DOWN TO ABOUT 40 MPH. FINALLY REGAINED SPEED ON FLAT STRETCH OF ROAD BUT EVERY TIME WE HIT A SLIGHT INCLINE WE WOULD LOSE POWER. PART OF THE TIME WE WERE ON A TWO LANE HI-WAY AND CARS WERE BACKING UP BEHIND US. THEN, AFTER GOING ALONG WITH NO PROBLEMS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME WE PULLED OF AT AN EXIT. AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN WHEN WE TRIED TO MOVE GAS PEDAL WENT TO THE GROUND AND CAR DID NOT MOVE-THEN IT LURCHED SUDDENLY AND ACCELERATED. LATER IN THE DRIVE-ON A FLAT GROUND GOING 80 MPH CAR LURCHED AND DECELERATED --AS I SAID, THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE; THIS LAST INCIDENT WAS MOST FRUSTRATING AS WE WERE ON A LONG ROAD TRIP AND FEELING VERY UNSAFE

WE HAVE A 2010 NISSAN ROUGE THAT WILL BE DRIVING FINE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTS DECELERATING TO LESS THAN 70 MPH ON A BUSY INTERSTATE. EVEN TRYING TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN DOES NOT DO ANYTHING. WE PURCHASED THIS NISSAN FOR OUR CHILD TO DRIVE TO COLLEGE BECAUSE WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SAFE. WE HAVE MAJOR CONCERNS ABOUT THIS HAPPENING EVERY TIME IT IS DRIVEN ON THE INTERSTATE. DOES NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHEN DRIVEN JUST LOCALLY. IT ONLY HAS 65K MILES ON IT. THOUGHT NISSAN'S WERE SUPPOSED TO LAST FOREVER AND BE SAFE. DON'T FEEL SAFE SENDING MY CHILD TO COLLEGE IN IT ANYMORE BECAUSE THIS IS HAPPENING SO FREQUENTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING ON AN INCLINE AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 30 MPH. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

THE CAR DEVELOPED A PROBLEM WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING AND I NOTICED FLUID LEAKING. TOOK TO DEALER, AND I HAD ADDITIONAL COVERAGE FOR REPAIRS AND BREAK DOWN. THEY TOLD ME THE ENCLOSED TRANSMISSION DEVELOPED A LEAK DUE TO CORROSION. THAT CORROSION DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED, AND IT COST $400.00 TO REMOVE THE PART RATHER THAN REPLACE IT. THE CAR HAS A GRINDING VIBRATING SOUND WHEN DRIVING. THE CVT IS KNOWN TO HAVE THIS ISSUE, AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SEALED SO YOU CAN'T CHECK YOUR FLUID LEVEL AND IT IS REQUIRED TO ONLY USE NISSAN MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE CVT IS TIED INTO A FAIL SAFE MODE THAT CAN BE ACTIVATED BY HIGH TEMPERATURE IN THE ENGINE. A COOLING KIT HAS BEEN RECOMMENDED BUT I HAVE READ MIXED POSTS AS TO THE DEALERSHIPS CHARGING TO PUT IT INTO THE CAR. THE CAR HAS BEEN KNOWN TO TOTALLY LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING IF IT GOES INTO THIS FAIL SAFE MODE OR WHEN THE CVT JUST FAILS COMPLETELY. WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 10YRS/120000 MILES FOR CVT.

ALMOST SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR, I FELT WHILE DRIVING THAT THE MOTOR WAS SHAKING AND I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THAT TOLD ME MUST BE THE AXLE, THEN I TOOK IT TO THE UNIVERSAL NISSAN IN ORLANDO, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOTHING, AND THAT WAS NORMAL IN THE CVT,MOTORS. IT KEPT DOING IT AND I TOOK IT AGAIN TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL, NOTHING WAS FOUND, NOW AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED I TOOK IT FOR A OIL CHANGE AND THEY FOUND THAT THE RIGHT AXLE HAVE TO BE REPLACE ENTIRELY, SINCE THE OIL TRANSMISSION IS LEAKING FROM IT, AND THAT THE PART THAT HOLD THE MOTOR HAVE TO BE REPLACE TOO, SINCE THE BUSHING FELL APART AND IT IS DANGEROUS, I KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND NISSAN DOESN'T WANT TO FIX IT UNLESS A LOT OF MONEY IS PAID, THEY WERE JUST GIVING EXCUSES SO THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, SO NOW THEY WANT TO CHARGE A LOT. THIS SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN RECALLS.

AFTER A 30 MINUTES TO 1 HOUR DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE DROPS IN SPEED WHEN DRIVING UPHILL. VEHICLE SPEED DECREASES AND STAYS NO MORE THAN 35 MPH; RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE, HAZARDOUS CONDITION. NISSAN DIAGNOSIS FOUND TO BE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO REPLACE IT, P0725 AND U1000, HOWEVER CVT WARRANTY EXTENSION HAS EXPIRED.

IN HIGHWAY DRIVING CONDITIONS THE TRANSMISSION WILL OVER HEAT. THE TRANSMISSION THEN GOES INTO SAFE MODE AND DISENGAGES FROM THE ENGINE. THE CAR THEN LOSES POWER. YOU ARE THEN STUCK ON A HIGHWAY WITH TRAFFIC AROUND YOU DOING 70 MPH AND YOUR CAR HAS NO ACCELERATION, NO POWER AND YOU ARE JUST STUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. NISSAN CLAIMS NOTHING IS WRONG.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMITION WAS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL THAN INTO DRIVE WITHOUT RESPONSE, I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND IT WOULD NOT RESTART, I LET THE CAR REST IT STARTED AFTER ABOUT 20 MIN, ALL OF THIS OCCURED AFTER A LONG TRIP 1.5 HOURS THEN A SHORT BREAK 0.5 -1 HOUR. THIS PROBLEM COULD NOT BE REPLICATED BY THE DEALERSHIP MECHANICS. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED URL FOR SAME TYPE OF COMPLAINTS. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2010/DRIVETRAIN/POWER_TRAIN.SHTML
