2010 Nissan Rogue

I WAS IN MOTION ON THE FREEWAY. I HEARD A LOUD POP THEN A METAL TO METAL SOUND. I WAS TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHO STATED THE SUBFRAME IS DAMAGED AND BUSHINGS. ONLINE SEARCHES SHOWED ME OTHER MODELS OF NISSAN WERE RECALLED FOR THIS. MINE DID NOT SHOW UP ON THE RECALL LIST BUT IT PROBABLY SHOULD. HOW DOES THIS JUST HAPPEN? I DON'T FEEL SAFE. I HAVE CHILDREN TO KEEP SAFE. THE ELECTRICAL PART IS THAT MY VEHICLE HESITATES TO NEARLY A STALL, ESPECIALLY IN IDLE AT SAY STOPLIGHTS. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT DUE TO A DEFECT WITH YOUR TRANSMISSION. MY WINDSHIELD WIPER SPRAY DOES NOT WORK AND I WAS TOLD A PART WOULD BE COMING IN FOR ME FROM JAPAN. IT'S NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE PART. I GOT A LEMON. I CAN'T AFFORD TO KEEP UP ON MAINTAINING WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A RELIABLE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED DURING THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MODERN NISSAN OF LAKE NORMAN (18615 STATESVILLE RD, CORNELIUS, NC 28031) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM BECAUSE THERE WERE WINNING NOISES COMING FROM THE LEFT SIDE IN THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION COMPARTMENT. IN ADDITION TO CUT AND UNSEALED WIRES UNDER THE DASH AND IN THE FUSE BOX, AS WELL AS A STUCK CALIPER (THAT THEY REPLACED FOR MY CONVENIENCE ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER). THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE DEALER FOR A TOTAL OF 2 WEEKS IN THE 1 MONTH I HAVE OWN THE CAR AND THEY HAVE ONLY FIXED THE CALIPER. MY CONCERN WITH THE CUT AND UNSEALED WIRES IS THAT LIGHTS (PARKING BRAKE AND BATTERY) IN THE DASH TURN ON WHILE I AM DRIVING AND IT HAS TURNED OFF ON ME WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IT HAPPENED TO MY WIFE (WITH MY NEWBORN IN THE CAR) WHEN SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE HIGHWAY, SHE CAME TO A STOP BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC AND THE CAR TURNED OFF ON HER CREATING AN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR BOTH MY NEWBORN AND CHILD. THE RESPONSE FROM THE DEALER WAS "WE ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE, THE COMPUTER DOESN'T SHOW ANY CODES" YET IT HAPPENS TO ME FREQUENTLY.

TAKING A SHORT DAY TRIP, ABOUT A 2 AND A HALF HOUR DRIVE, MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING ABOUT AN HOUR IN. GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING HAPPENED. ON THE WAY BACK HOME IT WAS WORSE WE HAD TO STOP ALMOST EVERY 10-20 MILES TO LET THE CAR REST. I JUST HAD THIS TRANSMISSION REPLACED ABOUT A MONTH AGO. I WOULD STOP TO MAYBE COOL DOWN THE TRANSMISSION FOR ABOUT 15-30 MINUTES, THEN IT ACTS LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. IT ALSO HAS A WHINING NOISE LIKE SOMETHING IS WINDING UP.

DRIVING ON I-76 ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 75 MPH WHEN VEHICLE STARTS TO RUN RPMS IN EXCESS OF 4K WHILE LOSING ACCELERATION. PULL OVER AND TURN OFF VEHICLE. CHECK UNDER THE HOOD, SLIGHT BURNING SMELL. WAIT ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES, TURN VEHICLE ON, WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL. WAIT SOME MORE, DRIVES FOR A LITTLE WHILE, THEN HIGH ACCELERATION WITH LOSS OF SPEED AGAIN, THIS TIME NEVER GOING OVER 60 MPH. I'M LUCKY I WAS NOT REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE AND KILLED WITH MY TWO YEAR OLD SON.

AFTER DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WITH MY NISSAN ROUGE 2010, WITH CONTINUOUS SPEED OF 55 TO 60 MPH FOR ABOUT HALF HOUR, AND THEN CAME TO A FULL STOP, DUE TO TRAFFIC CONGESTIONS, THE CAR WON'T RUN OR ACCELARATE, EVEN IF I PUSH THE (GAS) PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TO TURN OFF, AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE TO GET IT GOING AGAIN. IT HAPPENED MANY TIMES DURING WARM OR HOT WEATHER. IN WINTER, IT SEEMS TO BE FINE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, BUT THEY CHARGED ME, EVEN THEY HAVE NOT FOUND OR FIX ANY ISSUES.

THE INCIDENT HAPPENED ON MARCH 15, 2018. I WAS SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT ON A CITY STREET AND THE SIDE 'CURTAIN' AIRBAGS WENT OFF ON BOTH SIDES FOR NO REASON. NO ONE ELSE WAS AROUND...NOTHING FELL ON THE CAR. THE CAR WASN'T DAMAGED IN ANY WAY EXCEPT THE AIRBAGS. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY A FEW BLOCKS FROM HOME - SO I DROVE IT HOME. I WAS NOT PHYSICALLY INJURED. THE CAR SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY AS I WAIT FOR A DECISION FROM NISSAN AS TO WHETHER IT WAS THEIR FAULT OR NOT. (I DO NOT KNOW WHO'S FAULT IT IS...ARE THESE TAMARA AIRBAGS? I DO NOT KNOW. I DO KNOW, HOWEVER, THAT IT IS NOT MY FAULT!). MY INSPECTION IS SET FOR APRIL 5, 2018. I AM HAVING IT TOWED TO THE INSPECTION SITE BECAUSE I AM SCARED TO EVEN SIT IN THE SEAT. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PAPERWORK PERTAINING TO THIS INCIDENT AS OF TODAY - MARCH 26, 2018 *TT
