2013 Nissan Rogue

I HAVE A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE THAT THE TRANSMISSION JUST DIED ON ME. THE CAR HAS 103 K MILES AND DIED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE HIGHWAY. I WAS DOING 70 MPH AND THE CAR SPEED DROPPED TO LESS THAN 5 MPH. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE PEDAL FOR A GOOD MINUTE BUT THE CAR WON'T GO OVER 5 MPH. I FINALLY MANAGED TO SAFELY GET OUT OF THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR JUST DIED ON THE SIDE OF ROAD. TOWED THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPAIRED. THEY KNOW THAT OLDER MODELS WERE COVERED UNDER A NISSAN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION,BUT MY 2013 ROGUE WAS NOT COVERED AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. THE SPEED ON THIS CAR SHOULD NOT JUST DROP FROM 70 MPH TO 5 MPH IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, IT IS DANGEROUS. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT WON'T ADMIT IT. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE DRIVING THIS CARS AND NOT KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THEY ARE. NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE OVER THIS.

ON JUNE 17, 2017 WHILE DRIVING IN CALIFORNIA ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ROGUE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND NOT MAINTAIN SPEED. THE ROGUE WAS DRIVING SMOOTHLY AND ALL OF SUDDEN IT SLOWED DOWN FROM 75-80 MPH TO 60 MPH . I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR AND EVEN TURNED ON MY OVERDRIVE BUTTON WITH NO LUCK. THIS ISSUED LASTED FOR SEVERAL MILES UNTIL IT JUST STARTED WORKING AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUED OFF AND ON FOR THE ENTIRE TRIP TO AND FROM CALIFORNIA . THERE WAS EVEN MULTIPLE INSTANCES WHERE THE ROGUE WOULD NOT EXCELERATE AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT . I PUSHED THE GAS MEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD MOVE MORE THAN 5-10 MPH FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED FEET UNTIL IT WORKED AGAIN. WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 3 YEARS NOW AND HAVEN'T HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL NOW. WE LIVE IN ARIZONA WITH EXTREME HEAT AND I HAVE READ OTHER PEOPLE'S POSTS ABOUT HEAT COULD BE A PROBLEM, HOWEVER WE SEE EXTREME TEMPERATURES EVERY YEAR SINCE WE OWNED IT WITH NO PROBLEMS UNTIL NOW.

WHILE DRIVING ON 101 NORTH PASSING THROUGH SANTA ROSA, CA ON MAY 29, 2017 GOING THE HIGHWAY SPEED LIMIT OF 65MPH, MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WAS STRUGGLING TO GET UP A SMALL INCLINE WHEN THE MPH SUDDENLY DROPPED TO 30 AND I COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO GO ANY FASTER. THE ROAD WAS PACKED WITH CARS AS IT WAS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. I HAD 3 CHILDREN IN MY CAR. WE BARELY MADE IT OVER TO THE SHOULDER WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY WENT DEAD. IT WAS ABSOLUTE SHEER LUCK THAT THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. CARS WERE SWERVING ALL AROUND ME TO AVOID HITTING ME. I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND HAD TO CROSS OVER 2 OTHER LANES (GOING 30 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY) TO GET TO THE SHOULDER. MY CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS 85,000 MILES ON IT. MY DEALER SAID "THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM IS COMMON" WITH THIS MODEL. I GOOGLED "2013 ROGUE CVT TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS" AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS: THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO HAPPEN ON SURFACE ROADS. THIS IS VERY, VERY DANGEROUS. THE COMPANY WAS BESIEGED WITH CVT COMPLAINTS AND FIXED THEIR 2010 AND 2011 MODELS, BUT THIS PROBLEM IS STILL HAPPENING WITH ALL SUBSEQUENT ROGUE MODELS. PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS.

CAR LOSES POWER AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY. THE ROGUE HAS SOME ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION PROBLEM HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2013/ HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2013/CAR-STALL-PROBLEMS.PHP THE NISSAN ROGUE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER MODEL YEARS I TOOK A TRIP TO CHICAGO GOING THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS IN TENNESSEE. AS I WAS GOING UP THE MOUNTAIN MY 2010 NISSAN ROGUE BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN, DISENGAGE FROM MY CRUISE CONTROL NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESS THE PETAL MY CAR WOULD NOT GO ANY FASTER.

I WAS MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY GOING ~50 MPH. WENT TO ACCELERATE AND THE ACCELERATER DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME TENSION. THEN ALL LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH (CHECK ENGINE, OIL, BATTERY ETC) THEN THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION. PULLED TO THE SHOULDER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, BACK ON AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON, BUT NOT ACTIVE AS I WAS MERGING, AND SPORT MODE WAS ON. SINCE THE INCIDENT WHEN ON CRUISE CONTROL I WILL FEEL THE TRANSMISSION 'SLIP' FROM TIME TO TIME AS WELL. HOWEVER I COULD NOT RECREATE THE ISSUE OF THE CAR STALLING.I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IF I COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO EITHER. IT LOOKS LIKE PEOPLE ARE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND HOPEFULLY THIS CAN GET RESOLVED.

I AM HAVING THE SAME CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES AS A LOT OF PEOPLE. IT OVERHEATS WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR LONGER THAN 45 MINUTES ON A WARM DAY AND THE VEHICLE BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE AND CAN'T ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AND HAS LEFT MY FAMILY AND I STRANDED ON THE INTERSTATE A FEW TIMES NOW. I CAN'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE AT ALL AND FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. NISSAN CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHEN THEY HOOK IT UP TO THE COMPUTER BECAUSE THERE IS NO CODE ERROR AT THIS POINT AND IT WON'T DO IT WHEN THE DEALERSHIP IS JUST CRUISING AROUND TOWN FOR 15 MINUTES (SURPRISE SURPRISE AND A VERY CONVENIENT ISSUE FOR NISSAN). I HAVE A COMPLAINT FILED WITH NISSAN AND I AM BRINGING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR INSPECTION. I HOPE THEY ACTUALLY FIND SOMETHING BECAUSE IF THEY CAN'T ITS INCREDIBLY NEGLIGENT ON NISSAN'S PART AND IS A KNOWN ISSUE IT SEEMS FROM SIMPLE RESEARCH. A RECALL IS NEEDED ASAP. THIS IS INCREDIBLY UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSTATE AND THE CAR IS UNRESPONSIVE. NHTSA PLEASE DO SOMETHING.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT MY ROGUE AT THE AUTO NATION NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN MARIETTA. I BEGAN MY FIRST LONG DISTANCE TRIP BACK HOME ON THE HWY AND THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED. I HAD TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE TO PROPERLY ASSESS THE SITUATION. FIGURED IT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST A FLUKE, BEGAN TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD AND WITH MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR, THE CAR WOULD BARELY RUN. CALLED NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SUGGESTS THAT I TURN MY CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT BECAUSE IT'S OVERHEATING DUE TO GA WEATHER. NOW, IT IS HOT, BUT THERE ARE MILLIONS OF CARS IN GA THAT DON'T HAVE TO SIT EVERY HOUR YOU'RE ON THE ROAD. HE SAID AFTER THEN, TO JUST DRIVE ON THE HWY AT ABOUT 60MPH. SIR THIS IS THE INTERSTATE. NOT POSSIBLE. PEOPLE WILL RUN OVER YOU. TOOK IT RIGHT BACK TO NISSAN AND A FEW DAYS LATER, THEY STATED TO ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THEY DID NOT PROPERLY ASSESS THE SITUATION AS THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT HE DROVE IT ON THE CITY STREETS. I GET ONLINE AND RESEARCH ONLY TO FIND THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS, NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THIS VEHICLE. IT IS TERRIBLE. ESSENTIALLY, YOU'RE PAYING FOR A GLORIFIED SCOOTER! I NEED THIS PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY!

WE DROVE AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY THE RPMS WENT OVER 4000, AND THE CAR STARTED DECELERATING, WE WERE UNABLE TO GET OR KEEP HIGHWAY SPEED, EVEN WITH PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY. AFTER 15 MINUTES IT SEEMED TO FUNCTION, BUT A MILE LATER IT DID THE SAME THING. EVEN WORSE ON ANY SORT OF INCLINE, EVEN SLIGHT. FOR FEAR OF OUR SAFETY, WE HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED 55 MILES BACK HOME. I LOOKED IT UP AND AM WONDERING WHY THERE IS NO RECALL?? OUR SAFETY AS WELL AS OTHERS ALSO ON THE ROAD IS AT RISK!
