2012 Nissan Rogue

I PURCHASED A USED 2012 NISSAN ROGUE IN GOOD FAITH FROM ANDERSON CHEVROLET. IT WAS AS IS, SO THERE WAS NO WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THE CAR APPEARED TO BE IN GOOD SHAPE. HOWEVER, THERE IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS INVOLVING THE CVT TRANSMISSION WHERE THEY FAIL. IN SPITE OF THIS BEING A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL, NO REPROGRAMMING, NO NOTHING AND THE VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR FALLS TO THE UNKNOWING OWNER. I DO NOT HAVE AN ADDITIONAL $4-5K TO PAY FOR THIS FIX. AND I AM CURRENTLY STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LOAN FOR THIS CAR, SO I CANNOT SELL IT. SO I AM LEFT PAYING FOR A CAR THAT DOES NOT WORK, WITHOUT MEANS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. NISSAN DISOWNS THE PROBLEM, BUT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM. HOW DOES THAT WORK?

AIRBAG MALFUNCTION LIGHT IS ON, DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, JUST THAT IT SHOULD BE REPLACED. COULD MEAN THAT MY AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY, COULD MEAN THAT IT WILL DEPLOY RANDOMLY. MY WARRANTY DID NOT COVER IT, NISSAN WILL NOT FIX IT. IT IS $1300 AND I HAVE ANOTHER HUGE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR: MY TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT FOR THE SECOND TIME AND MY CAR IS AT 102,000 MILES. WARRANTY COVERED IT THE FIRST TIME, JUST ENDED IN JULY AND I AM TOLD THAT NISSAN ONLY COVERS NEW TRANSMISSIONS FOR 1 YEAR OR 12,000 MILES. THIS CAR IS A LEMON. A TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT GO OUT TWICE IN 100,000 MILES. AN AIRBAG MALFUNCTION SHOULD BE COVERED, THIS IS MY SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT HEARD A SQUEAKY NOISE AND FELT A VIBRATION EMERGING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED. GANLEY'S MAYFIELD NISSAN (6060 MAYFIELD ROAD, MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, OH 44124) DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. *DT UPDATED 10/5/18*JB

CODE: B1018 PASSENGER SIDE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION ERROR. SEAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. MY FAMILY'S SAFETY WAS AT STAKE. DEALER QUOTED $2962.06 AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THE SEAT IS ON BACK-ORDER. THAT AMOUNT IS RIDICULOUS AND PROHIBITIVE FOR MY FAMILY. WE HAD MY MECHANIC WORK ON IT THE 1ST TIME AND HE RECALIBRATED THE SEAT. HE CAME BACK A SECOND TIME BUT DID NOT CHARGE SINCE IT WAS THE SAME CODE AND IT HAPPENED A DAY LATER. WE OPTED TO FIX THE ISSUE BY REPLACING THE SEAT WITH A PART FROM A SALVAGE YARD AS IT WAS LESS MONEY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY! THE VERY FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM LIGHT WAS DURING A 5 HOUR DRIVE (7/8/18) BUT DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I LOOKED IT UP AFTER THE TRIP. I WAS APPALLED THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT FIX SOMETHING THAT WAS CLEARLY MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THAT I PUT MY FAMILY AT RISK. I ALSO BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS WHY THE SEATS ARE ON BACKORDER. I AM SURE NISSAN IS AWARE. PLEASE SEE PICTURES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. UPON DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FORWARD ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO RIVERSIDE NISSAN (8330 INDIANA AVENUE B, RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA 92504) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BATTERY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION WAS THE CAUSE OF THE RECURRING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

ON 2/19/14 I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED 2012 NISSAN ROGUE WITH 11,258 MILES AND A 100,000 MILE WARRANTY. I AM A SINGLE MOM WITH 2 CHILDREN AND HAVE RETURNED TO SCHOOL TO MAKE A BETTER LIFE FOR US. MY ROGUE STARTED LOSING POWER WHEN DRIVING, OFTEN WHILE IN HEAVY INTERSTATE OR HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. I WILL BE TRAVELING AT 60-75 MPH AND SUDDENLY, WITHOUT WARNING, NOT BE ABLE TO GO OVER 40 EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 7/20/18 WITH 116,225 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I WAS INFORMED THE VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY, COOLER FLUSH KIT, EVAP CANISTER ASSEMBLY & OIL COLLAR ASSEMBLY NEED TO BE REPLACED. TOTAL COST $4,000 AND HAD TO PAY $130 FOR THIS INFORMATION! THE DEALER INFORMED ME THE DIGITAL READ OUT INDICATED MY ROGUE HAD LOST POWER 36 TIMES! A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH TURNED UP MANY OTHER OWNERS OF NISSANS WITH CVT TRANSMISSIONS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE! NISSAN HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR CVT TRANSMISSIONS ON MODELS 2010 AND OLDER BUT REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE CONTINUES TO PLAGUE NEWER MODELS AND WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF REPAIRS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND NHTSA NEEDS TO OPEN AN INVESTIGATION. YESTERDAY I WAS ALMOST WIPED OUT WHEN I LOST POWER WHILE TURNING A CORNER. MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR! MULTIPLE REPORTS HAVE BEEN FILED WITH NHTSA WITH NO ACTION. HOW MANY NEED TO LOSE THEIR LIVES BEFORE THIS IS INVESTIGATED AND NISSAN IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS?

CVT WHINING NOISE (HIGH FREQUENCY) GENERATED OFTEN DURING ACCEL FROM 10 TO 40 MPH. THE ISSUE STARTED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED IT ON JUL 23, 2018 AND TOLD ME ENTIRE CVT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID CVT FLUIDS OVERHEATED AND DAMAGED CVT CHAIN. NO WARNING LIGHT OR SOME SORT OF ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ALSO THEY SAID CVT COOLING KIT NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED WHICH DIDN'T EXIST IN THE VEHICLE IN THE FIRST PLACE. LOTS OF CVT ISSUES REPORTED FROM NISSAN VEHICLES. IT IS 2012 ROGUE AND 82900 MILES. IT IS TOOL EARLY FOR TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. I THINK THIS IS MAJOR DESIGN DEFECT OR FLAW.

BOUGHT THE CAR USED WITH 50,000 MILES CVT IS DEFECTIVE SO I HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE POWER TRAIN I HAD IT REPLACED.. I M ABOUT TO HAVE AN ANOTHER CATASTROPHIC FAILURE YOU PAID ALL THAT AND YOU ARE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. .WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING YOU COULD HEAR THE TRANSMISSION MAKING THUNDERING NOISE AND WHEN SHUT OFF THE CAR THE TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY . THESE IS THE REPLACEMENT POWER TRAIN AND IT FAULTY
