2013 Nissan Rogue

I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION GETTING READY TO CROSS ONTO THE HIGHWAY, WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT FULLY ACCELERATE. WHEN I GOT OVER 40MPH, I BEGAN TO HEAR STRANGE NOISES COMING FROM MY ENGINE, LIKE A WHISTLING OR WINING SOUND. I HAVE PREVIOUSLY HEARD LIKE A SQUEAKING NOISE WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE BEFORE, BUT THOUGHT THAT MAYBE IT WAS MY BRAKES, BECAUSE I OLD HEARD IT SOMETIMES WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP, OR PULL OFF. JUST LAST MONTH I PUT A NEW BATTERY IN MY VEHICLE, BUT MY CAR JUST SHUT DOWN ON ME ONE NIGHT WHILE I WAS OUT. THEN A COUPLE WEEKS LATER I NOTICE THESE NOISES I JUST REFERED TO. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN COMES ON MAYBE A WEEK OR TWO AFTER I JUST PUT A NEW BATTERY INSIDE MY CAR! AGAIN I THINK MAYBE ITS JUST SOMETHING SMALL. I ALWAYS GET REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE, SO I KNEW THAT I WAS DUE FOR A TRANSMISSION FLUSH AISO..NOT A MECHANIC, SO THINKING THAT MAYBE THAT WAS WHY MY LIGHT WAS ON. I THEN ENDED UP PAYING ABOUT $200 FOR THE FLUSH, AND MY LIGHT WAS STILL ON. I WENT TO A COUPLE DIFFERENT AUTO SHOPS AND LET THEN CHECK MY LIGHT ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO A NISSAN DEALER BECAUSE THEY THINK ITS THE TRANSMISSION OR MAYBE THE O2 SENSOR, BUT ONLY A NISSAN DEALER CAN CONFIRM THAT!. SO I DID, ONLY TO SPEND AN EXTRA ALMOST $100 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHEN I TOLD THEM WHAT WAS SAID. SO FINAL RESULTS: I NEED TO REPLACE MY CTV TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE THAT I HAVE ONLY HAD SINCE FEB. 2016 AND STILL HAVE A LOAN OUT!!! AND FILE 2 CLAIMS WITH NISSAN, THAT TOOK TEN DAYS, ONLY FOR THEM TO TELL MY THEY WILL NOT BE REIMBURSING, OR REPLACING, OR ASSISTING WITH THIS BECAUSE THEY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR. HOWEVER, THEY ARE AWARE THAT THERE ARE RECALLS ON PREVIOUS MODELS OF THE SAME VEHICLE FOR THE SAME ISSUE!!!!!!!

WITH AROUND 60K MILES I NOTICED THAT WHEN DRIVING EXTENDED DISTANCES, MY NISSAN ROGUE WOULD NOT ALLOW ME ACCELERATE PASS 65MPH. I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS BEFORE SO I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT EVALUATED AND SEE IF ANY COMPUTER CODES POPPED UP. NOTHING CAME UP. THIS ISSUE KEPT GOING ON SO I TOOK IT BACK A YEAR LATER AROUND 79K MILES AND SUDDENLY SOME CODES APPEARED FOR CVT ISSUES. THEY SAID I WOULD NEED AN ENTIRELY NEW CVT. I HAVE BEEN FIGHTING THIS WITH NISSAN AND HAVE FOUND NO RESOLUTION. I DON'T FEEL LIKE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO COVER SEEING AS THOUGH THERE WAS AN EXTENDED NISSAN WARRANTY ISSUED OF 120,000 MILES/10 YEARS FOR 2010 AND EARLIER MODELS. OBVIOUSLY, THEY HAVEN'T FIXED THE ISSUES BECAUSE THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. GOOGLE IT OR SEARCH NISSAN FORUMS. IT'S NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER. I AM A SINGLE MOM AND STILL HAVE OVER $16K TO PAY ON THIS VEHICLE. IT IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. I WAS DRIVING OUT OF TOWN FOR THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE CAR AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO FULL LIMP MODE ON THE INTERSTATE JEOPARDIZING OUR SAFETY. MY CAR ENDED UP BEING LEFT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. NOW I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TOW IT BACK TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHEN FINANCES ARE ALREADY TIGHT DURING THIS TIME OF THE YEAR IN A ONE INCOME HOUSEHOLD. NISSAN SEEMS UNINTERESTED IN ISSUING A NEW EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THESE VEHICLES BUT MAYBE THIS IS SOMETHING NHTSA CAN PUSH FOR. SOMEONE HAS TO LOOK OUT FOR THE CONSUMER. ANY HELP WITH THIS ISSUE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS!

MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE SUDDENLY BEGAN LOSING ACCELERATION ABILITY. THE RPM'S WOULD REV UP HIGH WITH NO INCREASE IN SPEED. THIS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC WITH THE CAR BEHIND ME HAVING TO SLAM ON BRAKES OR SWERVE TO AVOID IMPACT. EVEN MORE DANGEROUS, THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS WHEN TURNING LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC LANES. EVEN WITH PLENTY OF TIME TO TURN, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AS IT BARELY CRAWLED WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC COMING QUICKLY. IF THE OTHER VEHICLES HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO SLOW DOWN OR CHANGE LANES TO AVOID MY SEEMINGLY STALLED CAR, THERE WOULD'VE BEEN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN TRAFFIC, TURNING ACROSS ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANES, AS WELL AS PULLING OUT ONTO HIGHWAYS & BUSY STREETS. I WAS TOO TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR FOR FEAR OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT THAT COULD KILL MY SELF & MY CHILDREN THAT I HAD TO STOP DRIVING MY NISSAN UNTIL I COULD GET ENOUGH MONEY TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. I AM SELF-EMPLOYED SO THIS CAUSED A MAJOR HARDSHIP. I AM CONVINCED THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION WILL CAUSE SERIOUS AND FATAL ACCIDENTS, AND PROBABLY ALREADY HAS, IF NISSAN DOES NOT DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS FLAWED TRANSMISSION.

IF YOU HAVE A SUSTAINED SPEED OF OVER 40 MPH FOR 30 MINUTES OR MORE THE CAR WILL STOP ACCELERATING. HTTP://M.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/ROGUE/2013/ SHOWN ON THE LINK THIS IS VERY COMMON AND VERY DANGEROUS. THE ROGUE IS EXPECTED TO BE A REASONABLY PRICED SAFE CAR AND NO ONE SHOULD EXPECT A $4,500 REPAIR (20% OF THE PURCHASE PRICE) AT 45,000 MILES. NISSAN KNOWS OF THIS COMMON PROBLEM AND HAS CHOSEN TO IGNORE IT.

CVT TRANSMISSION WITH 117,000 MILES. TOLD BY DEALER I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION @ A COST OF $4K FOR A REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION. NISSAN EXTENDED TRANSMISSION WARRANTY TO 120,000 MILES FOR '03-'10 NISSAN ROGUE MODEL YEARS BUT REFUSE TO PAY FOR OR AT LEAST PARTIALLY COVER COST TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION. DEALER SAID NISSAN ROGUE CVT TRANSMISSIONS CONTINUES TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR MODEL YEARS LATER THEN 2010. NISSAN WILL ONLY WARRANTY A REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION FOR 1 YEAR OR 12,000 MILES WHICH SHOWS NISSAN HAS LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN THE EXISTING DESIGN OF THEIR CVT TRANSMISSIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE CONTACT SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES TO AVOID A CRASH. THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG, FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG, AND CURTAIN AIR BAGS ABRUPTLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING OR IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN NISSAN DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS PRESENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THE CAR HAS WENT INTO LIMP MODE SEVERAL TIMES. ONCE WITH TWO SMALL KIDS ON THE INTERSTATE ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE LATEST TIME I WAS UNABLE TO GET IT OUT OF LIMP MODE AND HAD JUST EXITED THE INTERSTATE. NOW I HAVE A WONDERFUL YARD ORNAMENT ON WHICH I MAKE PAYMENTS. THERE HAS TO BE A RECALL AT SOME POINT. AFTER READING ON THE INTERNET IT IS NOT AN IISOLATED EVENT. WILL A FAMILY NEED TO DIE TO GET THIS FIXED?

HALF WAY INTO A 4 HOUR TRIP HOME FROM THE BEACH, ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, OUR 2013 NISSAN ROGUE EXPERIENCED LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THE TEMPERATURE THIS DAY WAS PROBABLY AROUND 85 DEGREES. WE HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT AN AVERAGE SPEED OF 70-75 MPH. WITH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, IT WOULD NOT GO OVER 60 MPH, AND WOULD START TO DECELERATE EVEN FURTHER GOING UP HILLS. WE DECIDED TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RAMP, WHILE TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, THE CAR WOULD ONLY GO ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR. WE WERE AFRAID WE WOULD BE HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE WE COULD GET PULLED OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. WE PULLED INTO A TRAVEL PLAZA, FILLED THE CAR WITH GAS, AND GOT LUNCH. TWENTY MINUTES LATER WE STARTED UP THE CAR AND IT APPEARED TO ACT NORMALLY, SO WE DECIDED TO CONTINUE WITH OUR TRIP. THIS WAS APPROXIMATELY 6 WEEKS AGO AND IT HASN'T HAPPENED SINCE. THERE IS A LOUD WHINING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE THAT APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRAVELING ON A LARGE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEED.
