2013 Nissan Rogue

STARTED 3 DAY AGO STALLING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP AND LOSE POWER EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY DOWN. ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING BUT HAVE TO PUT IN PARK AND TURN ENGINE OFF AND RESTART. HAPPENED 4 TIMES TODAY ON MY WAY TO WORK. YOU LOSE POWER WITH EVERYTHING BUT ENGINE STILL WORKING. CALLED NISSAN TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL BECAUSE THERE WERE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THEY SAID NO. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. NISSAN WANTED ME TO BRING TO DEALERSHIP AND PAY 114.00 JUST TO GET A DIAGNOIS .ONLINE THEY SAID IT WAS A FAIL SAFETY WHICH NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS BADLY HURT OR KILLED.

WHEN DRIVING UPHILL THE VEHICLE ALMOST STALLS AND ACTS LIKE IT IS NOT GETTING FUEL, IT SLOWS DRAMATICALLY AND TAKES AWHILE TO RECOVER POWER. I CANNOT ACCELERATE. IF THERE IS A VEHICLE BEHIND ME, IT GETS VERY CLOSE, VERY FAST. THIS HAPPENS ON REGULAR BLACK TOP ROADS AND DIRT ROADS.THIS VEHICLE ALSO POPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING ON ROUGH DIRT ROADS AND UPHILL (I LIVE ON A DIRT ROAD). THIS IS NOT "OFF ROAD DRIVING." BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE ONGOING SINCE I GOT THIS VEHICLE. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS NEW. THEN I THOUGHT I WAS DRIVING INCORRECTLY. NOW I KNOW IT IS JUST THE WAY THE VEHICLE IS. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE IN THIS VEHICLE.

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

TAKATA RECALL. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO APPARENT REASON AT ALL WHILE MY 25YR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE ON THE HIGHWAY HOME FROM A CHARITY EVENT. WHEN THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, IT CAUSED MY DAUGHTER TO LOSE CONTROL AND HIT THE GUARD RAILS. MY DAUGHTER SUFFERED SEVERE HEAD TRAUMA, BLEEDING AND BRUISES, INJURY TO HER EYE, SCRATCHES AND BURNS FROM WHATEVER THE SUBSTANCE WAS IN THE AIR BAGS. SHE SPENT THE DAY IN THE HOSPITAL WITH NUMEROUS TESTS DONE, HAD SOME SURGICAL PROCEDURES DONE, ON MEDICATIONS. SOME OF HER BRUISES RESULTED IN SWELLINGS AND MORE BRUISES. SHE STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO AND IS STILL UNDER THE DOCTORS' CARE. THANK GOD SHE'S ALIVE BUT MY TRUCK WAS A TOTAL LOSS. MY DAUGHTER'S SELF-ESTEEM IS LOW BECAUSE SHE'S HAVING A HARD TIME DEALING WITH THE PAIN, SCARS AND BRUISES. HER SLOW RECOVERY IS STILL AFFECTING HER LOSS FROM WORK AND INCONVENIENCE OF EVEN GETTING TO WORK BECAUSE THE INSURANCE COMPANYHAS DEEMED MY TRUCK A TOTAL LOSS. MY DAUGHTER IS STILL UNDERGOING MORE MEDICAL TREATMENT AND I'M TRYING TO CONCENTRATE ON GETTING WELL AND WORK ABOUT THE MEDICAL BILLS LATER. SHE STILL HAS CONSTANT HEADACHES DAILY BECAUSE OF HER HEAD INJURIES AND NOW LIGHT IS AFFECTING HER WHICH CANNOT BE CONTROLLED EVERYWHERE SHE GOES. AS A MOTHER, I HATE TO SEE MY DAUGHTER IN THIS PAIN EVERY DAY, I FEEL HELPLESS. I WANT MY DAUGHTER TO HAVE A BRIGHT FUTURE, BUT SHE'S ALWAYS SAD OR CRYING BECAUSE OF THE PAIN. THIS IS NOT FAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A MEDIAN DIVIDER. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. THE AIR BAG POWDER SUBSTANCE BURNED THE CONTACT'S RIGHT HAND AND LEFT THIGH, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOORS UNLOCK AND LOCK WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR HATCH FAILED TO UNLOCK. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURES PROGRESSED DURING RAIN WEATHER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V032000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND THAT IF CORROSION WAS FOUND ON THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR NEAR THE HARNESS CONNECTOR THAT IT COULD BE CAUSING THE FAILURE FOR THE LOCKS/LINKAGES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,900.

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 WAS VISITING FAMILY IN ARIZONA WITH MY DAUGHTER (WHO IS 100% HANDICAP). MY MOTHER WAS IN THE BACK SEAT WITH MY DAUGHTER. MY FATHER IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH ME. CHILD LOCKS ON AND ALL DOORS LOCKED AS THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, GOT A GREEN LIGHT TO TURN LEFT, WAS MAKING THE TURN AND MY DAUGHTER'S DOOR (RIGHT REAR PASSENGER DOOR) FLEW OPEN. MY MOTHER HAD TO GRAB MY DAUGHTER. I STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IN PHOENIX, FATHER JUMPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE, CHECKED MY DAUGHTER AND THE DOOR AND THE CHILD LOCK WAS STILL ON. I CALLED NISSAN AND HAVE AN APPOINTMENT BUT OF COURSE THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS SITUATION BUT TO BRING IT IN.
