2013 Nissan Rogue

WE WERE TAKING A TRIP TO WASHINGTON DC FROM FLORIDA AND WHEN WE GOT ONTO 95 I TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON TO SET AT 75 ABOUT AN HOUR LATER IT STARTED LOOSING ACCELERATION. TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF AND KEPT LOSING ACCELERATION . HAD TO LET CARS PASS SO I COULD GET OVER INTO RIGHT LANE TO GET OFF ON EXIT. LET THE CAR SIT FOR 30 MINUTES.PROCEEDED TO HEAD BACK HOME WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL AND CAR DID FINE. VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE. I GUESS SOMEONE HAS TO DIE TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM. I RESEARCHED COMPLAINTS AND THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2010 ROGUES.

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!

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN A MOUNTAINOUS AREA, OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. I HAD TO PULL OFF OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE CAR TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. NOW THIS IS HAPPENING ON A REGULAR BASIS IF I DRIVE MY CAR FOR LONGER THAN AN HOUR AT 60+ MPH, IT WILL SUDDENLY STOP ACCELERATING. IN ADDITION, IN THE LAST FEW DAYS, AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE INTERSTATE OFF RAMP, I TRIED TO ACCELERATE FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND THE CAR JUST BARELY MOVED, ENOUGH FOR ME TO HAVE PULLED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO KEEP GOING TO GET MYSELF OUT OF THE WAY. I HAD TO QUICKLY REVERSE TO MOVE MY CAR FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IF THERE HAD BEEN A CAR BEHIND ME AND I WAS UNABLE TO REVERSE I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED OVER AND OVER AGAIN AS AN ISSUE WITH THE CVT. MY CAR IS ONLY A 2013 AND JUST BARELY OVER THE (CRAPPY) POWERTRAIN WARRANTY THAT NISSAN OFFERS ON THIS CAR.

AFTER DRIVING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, THE CAR WILL SUDDENTLY AND CONTINUALLY FAIL TO ACCELERATE OVER A CERTAIN SPEED EVEN WITH THE FUEL PEDAL PRESSED TO THE FLOOR. I BELIEVE THE CAR GOES INTO A FAIL SAFE MODE DUE TO AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AND I COULD NOT LONGER EVEN GET UP TO THE SPEED LIMIT

WHEN DRIVING ON HWY FOR MORE THAN 30 MINUTES AND YOU REACH AN INCLINE CAR LOOSES ALL ACCELERATION AND SLOWS DOWN TO 40 MPH NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO IT WON'T GO I NEARLY GOT HIT BY 18 WHEELER TWICE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS NISSAN DEALER SAID THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON LINE ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET KILLED

DURING OUR FAMILY VACATION IN 2015, WE WERE DRIVING THRU GEORGIA AND THE CAR WAS SET ON CRUISE CONTROL. WE WERE IN SOME HEAVY TRAFFIC, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE CRUISE KICKED OFF, THE CAR BEGAN A RAPID DECELERATION, THE RPM'S WENT TO ABOUT 5,000 AND WE ENDED UP CAUSING A TRAFFIC SNARL IN 5 LANES OF TRAFFIC UNTIL WE COULD COAST THIS VEHICLE OFF THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY FOR US, WE WERE ABLE TO DO SO WITHOUT INJURY TO OUR VEHICLE OR US PERSONALLY. IT BECAME A CLEARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION IN A BIG HURRY! WE CALLED A NISSAN DEALERSHIP CLOSE BY (FOUND ON THE INTERNET) AND SPOKE TO A SERVICE MANAGER. THEY WERE ABOUT TO CLOSE DOWN FOR THE DAY, HE WAS KIND ENOUGH TO GIVE US HIS PERSONAL CELL NUMBER AND TOLD US TO LET THE VEHICLE 'REST' FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND THEN IT SHOULD BE FINE TO DRIVE AGAIN. HE EXPLAINED THAT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION 'SAFETY MECHANISM' THAT HAD KICKED IN AND IT'S BUILT TO SLOW THE SYSTEM DOWN TO COOL.WE DISCOVERED MANY WEBSITES DEDICATED TO PROBLEMS WITH THE 2013 NISSAN ROGUE CVT. FAILURE, AFTER FAILURE WERE NOTED, AND NISSAN WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT COSTS. AS THE 3 YEAR 36,000 MILE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED THE CUSTOMER IS FORCED TO COVER THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. THE AVERAGE COST BEING $4,200 FOR LABOR AND PARTS. QUITE SIGNIFICANT FOR ANY WORKING FAMILY. I AM ASKING FOR GUIDANCE IN THIS ISSUE, AND ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE APPRECIATED WHERE I SHOULD TURN FOR ASSISTANCE IN RESOLVING. AS I STATED ABOVE, I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. IF THE TRANSMISSION GOES OUT, I WILL HAVE A $22,000 PIECE OF USELESS METAL IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY FAMILY SAFETY IS A HUGE CONCERN, AND DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IN IT'S CURRENT STATE MAKES ME FEARFUL FOR OUR FAMILY'S SECURITY AND SAFETY WHILE DRIVING.

I DRIVE ABOUT 75 MILES TO AND FROM WORK. DURING THE SUMMER, WHEN I USE MY AIR CONDITIONING IN THE AFTERNOON DRIVE HOME AS I EXIT AND COME TO A STOP AT THE FIRST STOP SIGN I GET NO ACCELARATION AFTER THE STOP. THIS BECOMES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF CARS ALREADY TRAVELING IN THE LANE I'M PULLING INTO. THE REST OF THE RIDE HOME AT FUTURE STOPS IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. I NOW HAVE TO WAIT FOR A LARGE GAP IN TRAFFIC TO PULL OUT CAUSING TRAFFIC TO BACK UP BEHIND ME. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR ANYONE DRIVING THE ROGUE WITH THE AC ON FOR LONG DISTANCES. THE TRANSMISSIONS ISN'T SLIPPING, IT SIMPLY HAS NO POWER AFTER THE STOPS. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME ON HOT DAYS IN THE SUMMER WHEN THE AC IS USED FOR THE RIDE HOME.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY 2013 ROUGE. WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP IT STARTS MAKING A HUMMING SOUND. THE RPM GO UP QUICKLY AND EXPERIENCE LOSS OF POWER. IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY CONFIRM THE NOISE AND EVERYTHING ELSE I DESCRIBED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS BURNT. THEY ASKED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN FOR ASSISTANCE SINCE I HAD 64,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE AND THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 60,000 MILES. AFTER TALKING TO THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE HE INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULDN'T ASSIST ME BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. MY PREVIOUS CAR WAS A 2008 ROGUE. I EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE AT 90,000 MILES. BACK IN 2010, NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY'S FOR THE 2008-2010 ROGUES. THEY SAID "NISSAN IS TAKING THESE ACTIONS TO DEMONSTRATE OUR CONFIDENCE IN THE CVT TECHNOLOGY AND TO SHOW OUR COMMITMENT TO STAND BEHIND OUR PRODUCTS." AFTER MY PHONE CALL NISSAN DEMONSTRATED THAT THEY ARE NOT CONFIDENT IN THE CVT TECHNOLOGY AND THAT THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO PROVIDE AN SAFE TRAVELING VEHICLES FOR MY KIDS TO BE IN. NOW, IT HAS SLOWLY BECOME DANGEROUS VEHICLE WITH THIS ISSUE NOT KNOWING WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FAIL AND LEAVE US STRANDED.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE OFF THE FREEWAY ONTO AN EXIT RAMP WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHUT DOWN AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON ITS OWN. THE TRANSMISSION WAS ACTING LIKE IT WAS ''SLIPPING.'' SHE PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE IT TWO BLOCKS TO OUR HOME. THE CVT TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED BY OUR DEALER.
