I was driving down interstate 40 at 75 miles an hour and my car just quit in traffic. Luckily I was able to pull over to the side of the road and set for about 10 minutes and my car started back up and I made it about 30 more miles and it quit again and I waited 10 minutes and it starts up again. That’s very dangerous in traffic.
The Nissan rogue when warm weather hits the CVT transmission seems to get hot and then you lose propulsion. You can’t even put it in reverse and you cannot accelerate at all. You have to get out. Push the car wait 10 minutes and then hope to try it again. What works as we have to do a reset on a CVT system? Turn the ignition on by not turning the car on step on the break put it in reverse. Hit the accelerator three times slowly then wait five seconds put it in park. Turn it off to accept the changes and then two more times. Follow the same process for your car to turn on so you can drive off They are recommending that we should purchase a cooling system for a transmission fluid. This doesn’t make sense. Everybody’s complaining about this.
My car is a 2013 Rogue S with 118,000 miles. Two weeks ago I was on the I-95 at around 70 miles an hour and the car suddenly goes to 45 miles, despite my insistence to maintain my speed, I had to give up and pull over to the right ... I was able to go home at low speed and this experience traumatized me. After that I consulted a mechanic who told me without joking that these cars have the worst transmission and I should contact Nissan. I contacted Nissan customer service to explain the problem, they told me no and gave me a case number (52135330). After checking, it turns out that following repeated complaints Nissan would have increased the warranty up to 120,000 miles, but not for me!
I have a 2013 Nissan Rogue that is heavily rusted underneath, which makes driving unsafe. Additionally, both the catalytic converter and the transmission are in poor condition. I think Japan should ban Nissan from making more bad cars like this car.
-vehicle will stop accelerating in traffic -accelerate suddenly even when your foot is not on the pedal
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode and the vehicle decelerated independently. During the failure, the check engine and traction control warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the throttle body wiring harness was faulty and needed to be replaced. The throttle body wiring harness was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 89,000.
I was driving my car to appointment up a hill and the transmission completely gave out, additionally, since I bought it, It has consistently had problems accelerating, and getting above 45mph. The problem cannot be pinpointed
Loss of power after driving for an hour or more and going uphill. RPMs will only go to 3000 and unable to accelerate. Driving in heavy traffic going through Salt Lake City interstate 15, had loss of power and was unable to accelerate as traffic slowed and then sped up again. Just returned from the 2245 mile trip and experienced the problem multiple times. One time was parked in a driveway at a slight decline and was unable to back out of the driveway until I waited for the engine to cool off. I did call my local dealer where it was purchased and they told me it was an underlying issue. Will be scheduling a diagnostic check this coming week. No warning lights on dash, just sudden loss of power.
THIS VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING WHICH CAN BE A DEADLY HAZARD WHEN CROSSING AN INTERSECTION OR ANYWHERE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NISSAN NEEDS TO REPAIR THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY PROBLEM.
WHEN I ACCELERATE I HEAR A WIRING SHORTAGE OF SORTS. THE HORN BLOWS AND THERE'S A HESITATION IN ACCELERATING.
MY TRANSMISSION HAS STARTED SOUNDING AS IF I HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION INSTEAD OF AUTOMATIC. IT ACTS AS IF IT IS WAITING FOR THE GEAR TO BE SHIFTED AT LOW SPEEDS AND HIGH SPEEDS. ALSO, DRIVING TO AUSTIN LAST WEEK, I NOTICE THAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 60 ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. MY MPG ALSO FLUTTERS BACK AND FORTH. AFTER ARRIVING BACK HOME I LOOKED UP SO INFORMATION AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER RODGERS OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. IF THIS IS THE CASE, I AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY THEY ARE STILL SELLING THEM. AND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A MASSIVE RECALL. HAD I KNOWN THIS, I WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN THIS VEHICLE. IF IT IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER IF ISSUE, THE COMPANY SHOULD BE FIXING THESE PROBLEMS. I WILL NOT STOP UNTIL, I GET MY CAR FIXED OR MONEY BACK.
AS I AM DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITH MY CRUISE CONTROL ON, IT WILL ALL OF THE SUDDEN DROP ACCELERATION AND SHUTS OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. I CAN PUSH THE GAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT WON'T DO ANYTHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I PULL OFF THE ROAD AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON BUT IT STILL WILL BARLEY GO OR SOMETIMES IT WILL GET TO A MAX OF ABOUT 60 MPH BUT THE RPM WILL REV TO 5000. USUALLY WHEN I GET TO WHERE I'M GOING (TO WORK, VERY LATE) AND MY CAR SITS ALL DAY THEN IT SEEMS FINE ON THE WAY HOME. *TR
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN EVEN THOUGH I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS. THIS HAPPENED A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR INTO DRIVING. I PULLED OFF AND AFTER A LITTLE WHILE STARTED DRIVING AGAIN AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. ON A SECOND OCCASION AFTER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR AGAIN I PULLED OFF TO GET GAS AND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I PRESS MY FOOT ON THE GAS AND THE CAR DID NOT MOVE. PICKED MY FOOT UP AND PRESS DOWN AGAIN WITH NO MOVEMENT AT FIRST BUT THEN THE CAR STARTED ROLLING VERY VERY SLOWLY. IT FINALLY PICKED UP ENOUGH SPEED TO GET ME OUT OF THE INTERSECTION AND TO THE GAS STATION. MY DESTIINATION WAS ABOUT 45 MINUTES AWAY AND I DID MAKE IT THERE WITHOUT ANY OTHER INCIDENTS. MY HUSBAND WAS ALSO DRIVING THE CAR ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE THIS AND AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, HE PRESSED ON THE GAS BUT THE CAR DID NOT MOVE AT FIRST. MOVED VERY SLOWLY INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND LUCKILY HE WAS ABLE TO BACK IT UP BEFORE BEING HIT. WHEN THIS OCCURS, NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. WE JUST HAVE TOTAL LOSS OF ACCELERATION.
VEHICLE LOSES POWER ON OCCASION AFTER BEING DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN A HALF AN HOUR
VEHICLE STARTS RUNNING HOT AFTER ON INTERSTATE FOR APPROX. 30 MIN, TEMP WILL RETURN TO NORMAL IF HEATER IS BEING RAN ON HIGH. DIAGNOSIS WAS THERMOSTAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. VEHICLE RUNS HOT AFTER THERMOSTAT WAS CHANGED. WHILE ON INTERSTATE FOR APPROX. AN HOUR VEHICLE STILL RUNNING WARM. TEMP RETURNS TO NORMAL WHILE HEATER IS ON HIGH. WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL RPMS INCREASED SUDDENLY TO 4500 WITH A SPEED OF 70. SLOWED DOWN TO 60 AND RMPS CONTINUED TO CLIMB TO 4500 UNTIL I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID FAILING. TEMP FIX, SPRAYED CONNECTION CLEANER ON TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID, RPMS ARE STILL SLIGHTLY ELEVATED FROM NORMAL, BUT MANAGEABLE FOR NOW.
A MONTH AGO I WAS HAVING ACCELERATION ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE. I WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND COULD NOT MAKE THE LEFT TURN BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL MY VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD IT TOWED. I BROUGHT IT TO NISSAN AND PAID ALMOST $5K FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. (2ND TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT IN THE LAST 3 YEARS). A MONTH LATER HAVING SAME ACCELERATION ISSUE, NISSAN A WEEK LATER SAID I NEEDED A FUEL PUMP. DROVE HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP AFTER PAYING ANOTHER $915 AND MY VEHICLE IS GIVING OFF A BURNING SMELL, MAKING HORRIBLE NOISE WHICH WASN'T PRESENT PREVIOUSLY AND STRUGGLING TO DRIVE.
WHEN DRIVING, THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS WITH NO INDICATORS. IT STARTS TO LOSE SPEED AND REV VERY HIGH WHILE THE VEHICLE CONTINUOUSLY DROPS IN SPEED. THE DIAGNOSTIC CAME BACK THAT IT WAS A DEFAULT IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE CAR ALSO JERKS, REVS, AND IS VERY LOUD.
THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY. THE CAR LOSSES POWER ON THE HIGHWAY AND STREETS. LOSS OF ACCELERATION AND OR POWER. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY AND IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS IS.
MY CAR IS A 2013 NISAN ROUGE AND I'VE PAID DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE AIRBAGS AND THE AIRBAGS WENT BAD AGAIN WHICH ISN'T SAFE AND I BELIEVE SHOULD NEVER GO BAD. I'VE ALSO REPLACED THE WHOLE EXHAUST SYSTEM CATALYTIC CONVERT TWO YEARS AGO WITH SAME DEALER AND NEED ANOTHER. THEY CONSTANTLY KEEP TELLING ME MAJOR THINGS HAVE BEEN WRONG TRANSMISSION REPLACED AS WELL AC SYSTEM ETC. IVE PAID THERE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ALMOST 8000.00 FOR ENGINE AND THEY. THE OTHER DAY I HAD OIL CHANGED AND THE MECHANIC LEFT OIL CAP OFF AND MY ENGINE ALMOST CAUGHT FIRE. THEY SAID ALL WAS OK.. PLEASE HELP ME ! I BELIEVE THEY ARE TRULY TAKING MY MONEY WHEN A LOT THESE ISSUES COULD'VE BEEN NOT NEEDED CAUSE I'M ALWAYS KEEPING UP WITH MAINTENANCE AND HAVE ALL RECEIPTS.. PLEASE HELP !!
I WAS ACCELERATING TO MERGE ONTO AN EXPRESSWAY TODAY, AND MY ACCELERATION CUT OUT IN MY VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND COASTED TO IDLE SPEED. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO MOVE OFF THE EXPRESSWAY AT IDLE SPEED, BUT I MAY HAVE NOT BEEN SO LUCKY IN ANOTHER SCENARIO. I ALSO NOTICED THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON SOMETIMES WHEN THE CAR IS OFF OR THE PEDAL IS NOT PRESSED. THE CAR SEEMS TO THINK THE BRAKES ARE ENGAGED AND WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ACCELERATION. I FOUND THIS TSB FOR MY VEHICLE THAT DESCRIBES THE EXACT ISSUE I AM FACING. HOWEVER, THE TSB IS INACCURATE. IT STATES THERE IS "LOW POWER" WHEN ACCELERATING. THERE IS ACTUALLY "NO POWER." THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL WHEN THIS ISSUE IS ENCOUNTERED BUT WILL COAST TO IDLE SPEED. THIS ISSUE PUTS THE DRIVER'S LIFE AT RISK, AS WELL AS OTHERS ON THE ROAD, AND SHOULD RESULT IN A FULL RECALL BEFORE PEOPLE DIE. THIS COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO THE CLASSIFICATION AND INACCURACY OF THE FOLLOWING TSB, WHICH SHOULD BE CLASSIFIED AS RECALL AND CORRECTED TO REFLECT THE VEHICLE LOSING ALL ACCELERATION. NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10075096 MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: NTB15-113
DRIVING UPHILL IN INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 70 MPH WHEN VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN TO APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH WHILE I WAS ACCELERATING 1 MILE OUTSIDE COLUMBIA SC. I WAS DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO BEING RUN OFF HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN RIGHT LANE AND ABLE TO ACCESS EMERGENCY SHOULDER OF ROAD.
I WAS DRIVING FOR ABOUT 40 MINUTES UPHILL ON A FREEWAY WHEN MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE STARTED TO LOSE SPEED. FIRST I COULDN'T ACCELERATE MORE THAN 60MPH, THEN 45MPH. I HAD TO BE TOWED HOME AND WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. AFTER READING SO MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, I AM CONVINCED THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED.
FUEL TANK NEEDLE STAYS EITHER FULL OR EMPTY NO MATTER HOW MUCH FUEL IN THE TANK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. DIAGNOSIS SHOWS FAULTY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
LOSS OF ACCELERATION DUE TO OVERHEATED TRANSMISSION; MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WITH 66,000 MILES ON IT STARTED TO LOSE ACCELERATION ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE (65MPH TO 30MPH). I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ROGUES, AND THAT MY TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS BASICALLY GETTING SO HOT IT WAS BOILING AND HAD CAUSED MAJOR DAMAGE TO MY VALVE BODY. I HAD TO REPLACE THE VALVE BODY AND PUT IN AN EXTERNAL COOLANT SYSTEM WHICH COST $2700. THE REPAIRS WERE NOT COVERED BY NISSAN AS MY TRANSMISSION WARRANTY WAS ONLY UP TO 60,000 MILES, HOWEVER THIS IS A SERIOUS MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY NISSAN.
TAMARA RECALL: VEHICLES ACTS LIKE IT'S GOING TO DIE WHEN I AM IN GEAR AND STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN ETC.
