AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS PLACED IN DRIVE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000.

IN RESPONSE TO THE CAR SHUTTERING AROUND 25 TO 35 MPH, WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL MECHANIC. HE REPORTS THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND WILL REQUIRE A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT BY A NISSAN DEALER BECAUSE HE WAS AWARE OF ALL OF THE PROBLEMS THAT NISSAN WAS HAVING. HE INFORMED OF OF A NATIONAL RECALL ON EARLIER MODELS FOR THE SAME REASON. HE STATED THAT THEY CLEARLY HAVE NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. WITH FURTHER ON-LINE RESEARCH, WE HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2011 MODELS.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GATES NISSAN OF RICHMOND, KENTUCKY WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD NOT BE FULLY RESOLVED UNTIL A COOLER WAS PLACED INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED (COOLER) WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

WE PURCHASED A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE AT THE END OF 2010, AND IT WAS A GOOD CAR IN THE BEGINNING, HOWEVER, I STARTED TO NOTICE SMALL THINGS HERE AND THERE THAT WEREN'T THAT GREAT. BUT THEY WOULD COME AND GO. THEN ONE DAY I OPENED THE LEFT REAR DOOR HANDLE, AND IT BROKE OFF!! IT LOOKED LIKE A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC YOU SEE AT THE DOLLAR STORE. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THEY WANTED $550!!! RIDICULOUS! I FOUND A GOOD HONEST MECHANIC PLACE AND THEY EVEN REDUCED THE COST SINCE IT ONLY TOOK THEM 15 MINS TO REPLACE IT! ONLY COSTED ME $80! SO NOW AND AGAIN IT HAS ALSO BEEN LOSING RPMS AND HAVING DIFFICULTY SPEEDING UP. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING FROM WORK AND ON THE FREEWAY, AND THE RPMS STOPPED AT 4000 AND FROZE. I WOULDN'T GO OVER 60MPH! HE WAS SCARED AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. HE CHECKED THE OIL (IT WAS PERFECT), THE INSIDE AND SAW NOTHING. HE SAID HE SMELT A FIRE TYPE SMELL WHILE IN THE INSIDE OF THE CAR, BUT NO FIRES. HE SLOWLY GOT OVER AND PULLED OFF OF THE FREEWAY AND INTO A CAR PLACE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. I CALLED NISSAN AS THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE NISAN ROGUE. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS THE 2010 ROGUE. MINE IS THE 2011 ROGUE WHICH WAS PURCHASED AT THE END OF 2010. SO I AM SUPPOSE TO BELIEVE THAT THEY SOMEHOW PUT A BETTER CVT TRANSMISSION IN MY ROGUE WHICH IS NOT THAT FAR OFF FROM THE 2010 THAT HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND RECALL ON IT?? HARDLY, I HAVE SEEN MANY MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND EXACT YEAR. I'VE EVEN CALLED ABOUT OUR ROGUE A FEW TIMES WHEN I'VE HEARD ABOUT RECALLS, BUT THEY'VE ALWAYS TOLD ME IT'S ONLY 2010 AND MY CAR SHOULD BE FINE. OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT FINE, AND THE CAR IS CRAP. NISSAN SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS , AND THEY ARE NOT . THEY WILL CONTINUE TO LOSE GOOD CUSTOMERS THAT ARE HARD WORKING AMERICANS WHO PAY THEIR BILLS.

VEHICLE LOSES POWER GOING UP A MOUNTAIN AT A 40 DEGREE ANGLE FOR MORE THAN 5 MILES. VEHICLE STALLS LOSES POWER AND STALLS TO A CONPLETE STOP. WHEN DRIVEN ON A FLAT EVEN SURFACE VEHICLE HAS A VERY SLUGGISH AND JERKING MOVEMENT THAT MAKES THE VEHICLE LOSE POWER AND DECELERATES. VEHICLE HAS LOSS OF POWER WHEN REVERSING AND MAKES A VERY LOUD NOISE DOING SO.

MY CAR HAS 86K MILES ON IT. I WAS DRIVING ON I-95. THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 75 MPH, I WAS DRIVING 75 MPH. SUDDENLY, THE RPM'S STARTED GOING OUT OF CONTROL. THEN I LOST PICK UP. I MANAGED TO DRIVE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST EXIT. I THEN HAD TO CROSS OVER A BUSY 4 LANE STATE ROAD IN ORDER TO GET TO A SAFE PARKING PLACE. THE CAR DIED AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO CROSS OVER THE 4 LANES. A WONDERFUL POLICE OFFICER FINALLY PUSHED MY CAR TO SAFETY. HE GUESSED MY TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. HE SAID IT HAPPENS ALL OF THE TIME IN MY TYPE OF CAR. HE SAID THE CRV TRANSMISSIONS WERE NO GOOD. THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. SHEEHY NISSAN IN MECHANICSVILLE, VA, THE CLOSEST DEALER, SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE TRANSMISSION AND THE COST OF A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS $4,600. I HAD TO GET AN AUTO BODY SHOP TO INSTALL A TRANSMISSION FROM A NEW CAR THAT HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT , FOR $2660, AS I COULD NOT AFFORD $4,600. THIS TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AT 86K MILES. I AM ENCLOSING TWO BILLS; ONE FROM THE DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC FEES AND ONE FROM THE AUTOBODY SHOP THAT DID THE WORK.
