I DID A RESEARCH ON THE 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. 2YRS AGO ON THE SAME TRUCK.WELL ANYWAY I DIDN'T THINK I WOULD HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH MY TRUCK UNTIL NOW. THE TRANSMISSION HAS NOW FAILED IN MY TRUCK. ITS HAS STALLED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND HIGHWAY WHICH IS A DANGER TO ME AND OTHER CARS ON THE STREET. THE ELECTRICAL IN THE TRUCK WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE OVER THE SPEED LIMIT OR NOT THE TRUCK WILL START TO OVERHEAT AND SHUT DOWN ON ME IN THE STREET. THEN I WOULD HAVE TO SEAT AND WAIT AROUND AN HALF HOUR TO AN HOUR. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS FOR AWHILE BUT DIDN'T EXPECT IT TO GET THIS BAD.
