Powertrain (other)
Powertrain reports that are not specifically the engine or transmission — driveshafts, axles, transfer cases and differentials.
From owner reports, verbatim
I have a 2010 Nissan Rouge that is having powertrain issues, specifically the CVT, three times, after driving a long distance in very hot weather, and then going on a long uphill grade, the vehicle lost power. It dropped from 70 to about 40mph, this happened on two interstates along the same stretch and a third time on a California state highway. I did some research and found that this is a common problem with the Rogues powertrain's CVT over several years and there was also a class action lawsuit for some years of this Rogue, but not for a 2010. Nissan did pay for some repairs on other years to the lawsuit claimants.
The transmission/power train on this vehicle is experiencing common failures as reported by many owners. On my way to work, my Nissan Rogue began to stall and lose speed while on the highway. The speed decreased from 70 mph down to 50 mph. Approximately 5 minutes way from work, my vehicle barely accelerated through 4 way stop while making left turn which posed a high risk with on coming traffic headed in my direction I had my vehicle inspected by my ASE certified mechanic and was informed that my Rogue prompted transmission failure code. He (Dale Baca, Alternative Auto Care in Thornton, CO) also informed me that this was a recurring issue with my Nissan Rogue as well as other Nissans with the CVT transmission. No indication of failure or warning lamps was given on my dashboard on the day of July 28th, 2023.

The contact owns a 2010 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated that while the vehicle was started and running, her husband sat in the driver's side seat and wiped the center console, and without warning, the driver’s and passenger’s side curtain air bags inadvertently deployed. The contact mentioned all the doors of the vehicle were closed during the incident. The driver sustained ear and emotional injuries. Medical attention was not needed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 146,000.

From owner reports, verbatim
Upon my husband going to start the vehicle in the morning, he smelled an electrical fire. The door was locked which was odd so he attempted to use the key fob to unlock and it did not work. He went around to the passenger side door and it opened. To his surprise the interior of the vehicle smelled very strongly of smoke and the windows were black. He was able to get the drivers side door open to realize that the left side of the dash was completely melted along with the fuse box, hood latch, the door, the floor mat, the carpet, the headliner and everything on that side was burned/melted. The heat from the fire shattered the windshield. The vehicle was driven the day prior with no inclination of any problems and was parked in the driveway for the night. A phone call was made to Nissan and a case number was provided.
While parked and waiting for drive-thru service, my Nissan Rogue began to smoke and immediately turned into flames under the hood. There was no malfunction or problems before this incident. Approximately 15 minutes prior to the incident, the driver stopped and filled truck with gas. After driving from the gas station, the driver went approximately 10 miles for food, where the car began smoking, and flames coming from under the hood. There were no warning signs, messages or malfunctions prior to this incident. The car was running quietly and smoothly and had not encountered any problems prior to the incident.

Subject: Urgent Mediation Request: Vehicle Purchase Issue Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and concern regarding my recent vehicle purchase experience at K&O Auto Wholesale Inc, located at 8664 Phillips Highway, Jacksonville, FL 32256. On August 21st, at 5:22 pm, I purchased a vehicle from K & O Auto, having been assured by the salesperson Martin that the vehicle was in impeccable condition. This assertion was accompanied by the claim that the vehicle had recently arrived and undergone a thorough inspection. Initially, the test drive went smoothly, with no dashboard warnings detected. Consequently, I made the purchase for $6,400. However, my drive back to base revealed a slight exhaust noise and odor, though these issues seemed to dissipate momentarily. The following day, the engine light came on, accompanied by a strong exhaust odor. I promptly contacted your dealership, and I was instructed to bring the vehicle in after work for assessment and scheduling of a mechanic's appointment. This conversation was documented for reference. Upon arriving at the dealership, I was met with a starkly different response from Martin, the dealer. He abruptly informed me that the vehicle was sold "as is" and suggested buying a flush from Walmart or Autozone to remedy the issue. This abrupt about-face left me stunned, especially considering the initial assurances provided. It appears that the dealership may have misrepresented the vehicle's condition, manipulated the check engine light, and provided a misleading diagnosis. In light of these circumstances, I urgently seek mediation to swiftly resolve this matter. Given the transaction's integrity and the ethical considerations surrounding dealership practices, an equitable and timely resolution is crucial. I eagerly await your response. Thank you for your prompt attention. Sincerely,
WITH DAUGHTER DRIVING IN MOUNTAINS. AFTER APPX. 2 HOURS OF DRIVING THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE BEYOND 40MPH ON 65 MPH HIGHWAY. EVEN SLOWER ON HILLS, NO POWER.A LOT OF SEMIS AND CARS HONKING BUT NO PLACE TO PULL OVER.FELT WE COULD BE RAMMED FROM BEHIND AT ANY MOMENT. TERRIFYING.SUBSEQUENT CHECK ONLINE REVEALED THIS IS SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THERE HAVE BEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS. WHY HAS NOTHING BEEN DONE? IF EVER A RECALL WAS NEEDED THIS IS IT. WORSE THAN AN AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS POTENTIAL TO BE THE CAUSE OF MANY ACCIDENTS. MOST VEHICLES ON I-70 EXCEED THE 65MPH SPEED LIMIT AND A CAR GOING LESS THAN THE MIN REQUIRED SPEED IS AT GREAT RISK. DO SOMETHING!! MORE INFO ON THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. JUST GOOGLE NISSAN ROGUE ACCELERATION PROBLEM.
Transmission
Reports naming the automatic or manual transmission, including shifting behaviour, shudder, slipping and transmission control modules.

2010 Nissan Rogue SW pre-owned certified on 2/24/2012; Mileage: 13,403. Purchased SECURITY+PLUS service Warranty. The summer of 2014 Rogue started a whining noise going up hills or under a light load. There was no other indication from the vehicle that it was under distress, no warning lights appeared etc. Dealership mechanic test drove and confirmed the CVT was failing. 6/13/2014; Mileage 44228 per Warranty, installed: "1-Transaxle Assy; 1-Trans Exchange Expense; 5- NS-2 CVT TRANMI; 1Tranmission CO; 1 Cooler Kit-AUTO." "Certified concern, per Tech Line replaced CVT Transmission Assembly, Programmed TCM, Installed Transmission cooler, operates per design." The CVT was flushed and cleaned on 6/06/2018 at 78,882 by same dealership. Miles since new CVT was replaced 44228 - 78882 = 34654 June 24, 2021 upon returning from a trip the car was not shifting properly. At starting of an intersection the VOC light flashes and came on, and the car hardly would go across the intersection with the gas pedal pushed to floor. There were times gear shifting would rev and not shift smoothly. It was dangerous doing only 55mph in a 75 mph on I-10 returning. On July 22, 2021; Mileage 92762; took to dealership for digonostic; they reported: "caused by check codes and A/B counts no code present. Transmission has B counts recommend transmission replacement." "CVT Assembly $4890; front lower control arms if done at time of CVT $650 & drive belt $180.". And, of course, they informed me that the Warranty expired 1 year to the month. However,it is my understanding that 2010 Rogue were given an extended 10 year warranty/150k. My Warrenty book indicates differently. I believe Nissan's Warranty on my specific vehicle is misleading and needs reviewed. And may be considered fraudelant. A 2010 Nissan Rogue has less than 94,000 miles 1 CVT replaced prematurely now requiring another new CVT transmission replaced. North America Nissan denied asst beyond warranty
TL * THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ROUGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD DECELERATE SPORADICALLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE CONTINUOUS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT) HAD OVERHEATED CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO BURN UP. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.
Steering

From owner reports, verbatim
I ACQUIRED A 2010 NISSAN ROGUE SL AWD, WITH LOW MILEAGE, IN OCTOBER 2019. IN EARLY OCTOBER 2020 ABOUT 20 MILES OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON, DC TRAVELING FROM NC THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. OF COURSE THIS UNNERVED ME. I STOPPED TWICE TO VISUALLY AND MANUALLY CHECK THE TIRE AIR PRESSURE USING A PRESSURE GAUGE. NO PROBLEM WITH THE PRESSURE. ONCE IN DC I WENT TO A SERVICE STATION/MECHANIC SHOP IN MARYLAND AND HAD THE MECHANIC CHECK THE PROBLEM. HE CHECKED THE TIRE PRESSURE AND FILLED ALL TIRES WITH AN ADDITIONAL 5 POUNDS OF AIR (FROM 35 TO 40) AND STATED THAT THE WOBBLING WOULD LIKELY NOT CAUSE ANY SERIOUS PROBLEM BUT THE ADDITIONAL AIR SHOULD CURED. THE ADDED AIR SEEMED TO HAVE WORKED. WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS I WAS BACK ON THE HIGHWAY HEADED SOUTH. I REALIZED THE PROBLEM HAD NOT GONE AWAY. I DETERMINED THAT AT LOW CITY SPEEDS THE PROBLEM DID NOT PRESENT ITSELF. THE PROBLEM SURFACES WHEN AT HIGHER HIGHWAY SPEEDS, MOSTLY WHEN THE BRAKE IS ENGAGED. SINCE BEING BACK IN CONCORD, NC I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE PLACE ON A LIFT, AT A NON-DEALER SHOP, AND CHECKED. THE MECHANIC DROVE MY VEHICLE AND COULD NOT FIND ANY OTHER ISSUES. HE SUGGESTED THAT I PURCHASE FOUR NEW TIRES, CITING THAT ALTHOUGH THERE IS STILL SUFFICIENT TREAD THE TIRES MAY HAVE AN INTERNAL ISSUE. I SPOKE TO ANOTHER MECHANIC WHO SUGGESTED THAT A 'TIE ROD' MAY BE THE PROBLEM. ON THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2020 I HAD PLANS TO PURCHASE NEW TIRES. AFTER SEEING THE WSOC NEWS OF SIMILAR EXPERIENCES OF OTHERS, I WILL FIRST TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER FOR EVALUATION AND DOCUMENTATION. AT THIS TIME I DON'T HAVE ANY DOCUMENTATION TO SUBMIT.

I was driving the vehicle and stopped at a Sonic drive thru. I shifted the car into park and I began to hear a very loud creaking noise. When I shifted the car into drive, the car wouldn’t move. I called a Firestone mechanic and he concluded that it was the CV belt that is connected to the transmission. Regardless, only a transmission shop could handle this issue. I called CARMAX AUTO, and spoke with a JASON HEWITT. Mr Hewitt informed me that CarMax will have a tow truck come get the car. The following day, the car was towed by CarMax to Amaco for an official diagnostic. I was notified the following day that my vehicle had a damaged axle and appears to have been cause by a “car accident.” Mr Hewitt told me to file a claim in my insurance. I told Mr Hewitt that most likely the tow company damaged my axle. He stated he didnt know what exactly caused it but they will not be able to address the transmission issue until this axle and converter is paid for. Additionally, I’ve had the car for 14 months and 6 months into my lease agreement, the check engine light came and stayed on due the catalytic converter. The air and heat stopped working in September of 2023.
AFTER PURCHASED USED THE LIGHT FOR THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT WOULD NOT GO OFF. FINALLY GOT THAT FIXED. THEN HAD TO REPLACE FRONT STRUTS. NO CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE FROM STOP WITHOUT PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT IS DELAYED, SAME FOR IN REVERSE.

I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT ON A BACKROAD HIGHWAY & NOTICED THE DRIVER HEADLIGHT OUT SO I STARTED USED MY BRIGHTS, THEN NOTICED SMOKE & FLAMES COMING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER CALLED 911 & TRIED POURING WATER ON IT MYSELF WHILE I WAIT. TOOK ABOUT 8 MINS FOR POLICE & MAYBE 12-15 FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT. THE POLICE TRIED TO USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER WHICH DID NOT WORK, BY THE TIME FIRE DEPARTMENT GOT THERE THE WHOLE CAR WAS COMPLETELY UP IN FLAMES & BURNT TO THE GROUND.
THE DIM LIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY LOW AND ARE A HAZARD TO NIGHT DRIVING. THIS IS KNOWN PROBLEM FOR NISSAN AND TO NHTSA. I AM WONDERING WHAT THE CRITERIA IS FOR ENFORCING A SAFETY RECALL. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE? OR CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT? OR DOES IT HAVE TO BE MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS? I AM FRUSTRATED AND AT MY WITS END TRYING TO GET SOME WELL DESERVED ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

The passenger side airbag light never goes off no matter who is sitting in the seat I think the weight sensor in the seat is broken. I just noticed that the light wasn't off when I had an adult in the passenger seat one day and still is the same. The light is sopost to go off if someone is in the seat. The light has been like this for over a year now.
The airbag light is flashing and my husband has tried the solution that was told would stop it. Did not work. Had the car put on a scanner and the results were the passenger seat airbag has a defective part. Dealership wants over 2000.00 to fix problem. It was a recall for the problem but doesn't include the year 2010. I don't have money to have this fixed. Safety issues don't have airbag on passenger side...

THE SUNROOF OF MY CAR (WHILE I WAS DRIVING) EXPLODED! FORTUNATELY THE INSIDE PANEL WAS CLOSED. I IMAGINED SOMETHING HIT THE SUNROOF, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING INSIDE THE WELL. JUST RECENTLY I WATCHED A NEWS PROGRAM THAT SHOWED THAT MANY SUNROOFS ARE EXPLODING DUE TO FLAWS IN THE GLASS. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS UNDER MY DEDUCTIBLE, COSTING ME $303.35 TO REPLACE. I WAS DRIVING ON RT. 7 "BELLEVILLE TURNPIKE" KEARNY, NEW JERSEY. NOTHING WAS NEAR ME AT THE TIME - IT SOUNDED LIKE I HAD BEEN SHOT AT! I HAD THE REPAIR DONE AT LIDO AUTO BODY IN BELLEVILLE, N.J. IT TOOK THREE DAYS TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR, I HAD TO RENT A CAR (ENTERPRISE) TO GO TO WORK COSTING ME $124.74. I HAVE PHOTOS AND INVOICES, BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FACILITATE A DOWNLOAD IF I AM PROVIDED A FAX NUMBER, I WILL GLADLY PROVIDE WHATEVER DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED. *TR
