2008 Nissan Rogue complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE REAR ENDED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CAUSING HIM TO CRASH INTO A SECOND VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE CAR WILL BE AT A COMPLETE STOP AND YOU WILL PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL AND IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE, YOU CAN FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL, AND IT WILL HAVE VERY LITTLE REACTION. IN ADDITION, WHEN THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING ALL YOUR LIGHTS STOP WORKING SO THE PERSON BEHIND YOU DOES NOT KNOW YOU ARE NOT AT A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS NOT A CONSISTENT PROBLEM BUT YOU NEVER NOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN - IT'S LIKE THE CAR GOES INTO THIS AMNESIA STAGE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AS THE CHECK ENGINE WRNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000.

ON THE DATE LISTED ABOVE THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. MY WIFE AND I WERE IN FOUR LANES OF EASTBOUND TRAFFIC ON I40 IN BURLINGTON NC. WE LOST MOMENTUM IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND WERE LUCKY TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MARCH 2008. IT HAD A KNOWN ISSUE WHERE GRINDING NOISES WERE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. NISSAN FINALLY RELEASED A FIX AND MY CAR WAS UPDATED ON 11/30/2009. I BELIEVE THE CVT WAS DEFECTIVE OR DAMAGED BECAUSE OF A SLOW RESPONSE BY NISSAN. THE CAR WAS 20 MONTHS OLD BEFORE THE COMPANY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE SO THAT THE GRINDING NOISE WASN'T PRESENT. I ASKED NISSAN FOR DATA ON FAILURES AND - OF COURSE - THEY SAID THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO BECAUSE THE CATASTROPHIC LOSS OF A TRANSMISSION COULD LEAD TO A DEADLY ACCIDENT. *TR

WAS RETURNING FROM TRIP NORTH CAROLINA BACK HOME TO TENNESSEE ONCE ABOUT HOUR AWAY FELT CAR JUST START SLOWING DOWN CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE WHEN PUSHING ON GAS. WAS ABLE TO GET TO RIGHT HAND LANE AND GET OFF INTERSTATE JUST BEFORE CAR WENT TO A CRAWL. CAR WAS MAKING WHINING NOISE WHILE TRYING TO MOVE CAR FROM HIGHWAY. CAR CAME TO STOP AND UNABLE TO MOVE AGAIN. HAD CAR TOWED BACK TO MY HOUSE SENT TO SHOP TO FIND OUT THAT TRANSMISSION HAD MALFUNCTIONED. DOING RESEARCH ON TRANSMISSION FOUND OUT THE NISSAN ROUGE IS USING CVT TRANSMISSION AND THAT NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 120K OR 10 YEARS. MY RESEARCH ALSO FOUND OUT THAT OTHER NISSAN OWNERS OF ROGUE AND MURANOS WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH CVT TRANSMISSION. WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT ABOUT THE WARRANTY I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER CARE TO INQUIRE ABOUT THIS. I WAS TOLD MY MODEL AND MAKE QUALIFIED UNDER WARRANTY AND THAT MILEAGE DIDN'T MATTER. NISSAN DECIDED NOT TO ASSIST ME WITH REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT OF TRANSMISSION. I TRIED TO TELL NISSAN ABOUT LETTER THAT STATED THEY WOULD DECREASE COST EVEN ABOVE 120K. THEY REFUSED TO DO SO. I HAD NO WARNING SENSORS THAT THERE WAS PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSION. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A BAD ACCIDENT IF THE TRANSMISSION HAD OF WENT OUT DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC. IT APPEARS READING ABOUT OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCES WITH CVT TRANSMISSIONS THAT NISSAN DOESN'T WANT TO OWN UP TO HAVING A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. EVEN SPEAKING WITH MECHANICS FROM OUTSIDE AND WITH NISSAN THAT THIS TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY AND MANY HAVE ISSUES AN

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, AND REMAINS ON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID IT WOULD COST $1,800 TO REPAIR, AN INDICATOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS NOT WORKING. I DID ASK ABOUT RECALLS, AND THEY STATED THERE WERE NONE. IT SEEMS THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 08V521000. HOWEVER, MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BECAUSE "THE PART WAS MANUFACTURED AT A DIFFERENT PLANT". I BELIEVE AS THE SAME PART IS MALFUNCTIONING IN THE SAME VEHICLE RECALL, IT WAS ALSO MANUFACTURED INCORRECTLY, AND NISSAN NORTH AMERICA SHOULD REPAIR IT AS A PART OF THAT RECALL. *TR

WHEN DRIVING FOR A LONG DISTANT AND PAST THE OVER 99.7 MILES THE GAS PEDAL GET STOCK AND CAR LOSSES POWER; ALSO AFTER DRIVING FOR A PERIOD OF TIME IT STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT CAR WOUND TAKE OFF WILL TAKE TIME TO PICK UP SPEED. HAVE TAKING IT TO THE A MECHANIC WHICH THE GAS PUMP WAS REPLACE AND IT KEEP DOING IT. I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THE SAME ISSUES. *TR

THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL THE CAR HAS / THE CAR HAS LESS GAS THAN IT SHOWS.I HAVE BEEN TO THE NISSAN DEALER FIVE TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM - THEY HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL GAUGE TWICE. I HAVE REPORTED TO NISSAN CORPORATE AND THEY ADVISED THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

MECHANIC CLAIMS THAT AS HE WAS BACKING MY CAR UP INTO A PARKING SPACE AND OUT OF NO WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL VIOLENTLY JERKED HURTING HIS FINGER. THEN WHEN THEY TOOK IT OUT FOR A TEXT DRIVE, GOING ABOUT 10 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO TURN IT LEFT OR RIGHT. *TR

CVT TRANSMISSION WENT OUT HAD A LOUD HOWLING NOISE THE RPMS SHOT UP AND DOWN A FEW TIMES BIG VIBRATION THEN NOTHING. *TR

WAS ON MAIN STREET IN WATERTOWN , CT ROAD WAS WET AROUND 6:30 AM JUST ENTERING CURVE FRONT RIGHT AXLE BROKE CAUSING CAR TO HIT GUARD RAIL AND DO FRONT END DAMAGE . INSURANCE COMPANY REPLACED IT WITH A RECONDITIONED AXLE .ON 10/1/2014 LEFT AXLE BROKE DRIVING ON I-95 NOT TO FAR FROM HOME STEERING WAS WOBBLY BUT MADE IT HOME SAFE REPLACED THE AXLE. THE NEXT DAY THE RIGHT SIDE WENT AGAIN AND IS NOW BACK AT THE AUTO BODY SHOP WAITING ON REPAIR -- WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL OF NISSAN THINK IF THIS IS SO SHOULD BE A RECALL TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT IS FLASHING NISSAN HAS HAD RECALL BUT SAY NOT MY VIN BUT THE PROBLEM IS THE SAME AS THE OTHER RECALL. *TR

NO ACCELERATION WHEN GAS PEDAL DEPRESSED. COASTED TO CURB. DANGEROUS SITUATION. CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED. NO PRIOR WARNING. *TR

I FILLED ME VEHICLE UP ON MONDAY OF THIS WEEK, AND THE GAS GAUGE NEVER WENT ABOVE A 1/4 OF A TANK. WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO WORK MY CAR RAN OUT OF GAS AND I HAD NO IDEA BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN SHOWING ON E ALL WEEK, BUT I KNEW IT HAD GAS. SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN OCTOBER, IT HAS NEVER ACTUALLY GONE ALL THE WAY TO FULL NO MATTER HOW MUCH I FILL IT UP. I LOOK ONLINE AND ALL I'M SEEING IS THIS IS A HUGELY KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN'S. IT CAUSED ME LOST WORK AND I WILL NOW HAVE TO PAY $600+ TO GET THIS FIXED, WHEN IF THEY GOT IT RESOLVED THERE WOULDN'T BE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, NO MATTER THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE CUSHION ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V521000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,900. UPDATED 10/28/2014*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. A PASSENGER SEAT WAS PURCHASED FROM THE SALVAGE TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS. UPDATED 04/21/2015 *JS

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 3RD 2014, THE NISSAN WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE, AND HAS NOT STARTED SEANCE, I REPLACED THE FOLLOWING PARTS (FOR MY WIFE) ON THE BATTERY. THE POSITIVE TERMINAL CLAMP WAS CORRODED THROUGH TO THE POINT WE TOUCHED IT AND IT BROKE. (WE REPLACED THE PARTS FROM DEALERSHIP SEPTEMBER 8TH, 2014) BEFORE AND AFTER THE BATTERY TERMINAL AND FUSE PACK WERE REPLACED THE OBD2 WILL NOT CONNECT WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM IN THE CAR AT ALL. NOW NOT EVEN 24 HRS AFTER THE ABOVE LISTED PARTS WERE REPLACED, THE CAR BATTERY IS NOW DEAD, SITTING ON STREET WITH SYSTEM NOW RECONNECTED. AFTER PARTS WERE REPLACED THE CARE WOULD CRANK WITH NO START, (CRANKING WAS STRONG WITH NO LAG). NOW THERE IS NO CHARGE IN THE BATTERY NOT EVEN 12 HRS AFTER REPLACING THE PARTS. THIS IS DISCONCERTING BEING THAT WE HAVE HAD NO ISSUES WITH THE AUTO UNTIL NOW. WE DID NOTE THAT THERE IS/WAS A RECALL FOR SERVICE FOR 2008 NISSAN ROGUE AS LISTED BELLOW: 2008 NISSAN ROGUE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SERVICE BULLETIN 373732 NHTSA: ACTION NUMBER: 10055490 SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: 373732 REPORT DATE: APR 09, 2014COMPONENT: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SUMMARY: NISSAN: THE MAIN HARNESS TO BODY HARNESS CONNECTORS IS EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL CORROSION ISSUES. 2008-2014 ROGUE. *PE SOURCE: HTTP://WWW.AUTOMD.COM/TSB/BULLETIN_B373732/ *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY CAR LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 35MPH. UPON EXIT FROM HIGHWAY, WOULD NOT GO PAST 20 MPH. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE. THIS WEEKEND IT OCCURRED AGAIN. MY SON WAS DRIVING IT AND IT BECAME TOO DANGEROUS TO ATTEMPT CROSSING AN INTERSECTION. RETURNED TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT NEEDED ANOTHER TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE. THERE IS NO INDICATOR LIGHT, NO ERROR CODE TO TELL YOU THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS SERVICE. THE MANUAL IS VAGUE WITH REGARDS TO CHANGE INTERVALS. LUCKILY MY SON IS AN ADULT WHO KNEW HOW TO HANDLE THE SITUATION. AN INEXPERIENCED, ELDERLY OR EVEN DISTRACTED DRIVER COULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED. MY SON WAS GLAD HE WAS NOT REAR ENDED WHEN HE DID NOT PROCEED INTO THE INTERSECTION. *TR

MAY 2014: ON A TRIP TO AZ, VEHICLE SUDDENLY BEGAN TO DECELERATE AND COULD NOT BE DRIVEN MORE THAN 3000 RPMS. SUDDENLY AND DRASTICALLY SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT USING BRAKES AND WITH NO BRAKE LIGHT WARNING TO FOLLOWING VEHICLES COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS REAR-END ACCIDENT. PROBLEM OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING MORE 20 TIMES. TOOK ROGUE TO ECONOMY NISSAN TO REPAIR PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED DIP STICK AND DRAINED OFF SOME TRANSMISSION FLUID AND STATED THIS WOULD CORRECT WHAT THEY SAID WAS A TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERHEATING PROBLEM. JULY 2014: ON ANOTHER CROSS COUNTRY TRIP PROBLEM RE-OCCURRED. WENT TO DAVE SOLON NISSAN IN PUEBLO COLO. THEY ADVISED NOT TO CONTINUE DRIVING ROGUE UNTIL A TRANSMISSION COOLER KIT WAS INSTALLED. THIS PART WAS ON PERPETUAL BACK ORDER. IN REALITY WE WERE INFORMED THAT AT THAT TIME THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. BECAUSE OF OUR SCHEDULE, WE TRADED THE ROGUE IN FOR A USED NISSAN PATHFINDER. WE LATER FOUND OUT THAT DAVE SOLON NISSAN GOT TIRED OF WAITING FOR THE PART AND TOOK ROGUE TO A CAR ACTION. IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER THEY INFORMED THE PUBLIC OF PROBLEM OR JUST SOLD THE VEHICLE WITH A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAT COULD NOT BE CORRECTED. TO DATE THERE APPEARS TO BE NO FIX TO THIS PROBLEM. WE BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE GIVEN THE HIGH POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS REAR-END ACCIDENTS. *TR

PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS GAUGE READY 1/2 TO 1/4 EMPTY WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE ARE REPORTED PROBLEMS WITH A FAULTY FUEL SENDING MODULE OR MODULES OR PERHAPS THE FUEL PUMP. I SEE THIS PROBLEM ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN SUBMITTED FOR THE NISSAN ROGUE. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT THE NISSAN PATHFINDER HAS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A RECALL. TO MY UNDERSTANDING THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NISSAN FUEL PART IS THAT THE PATHFINDER PART NUMBER IS DIFFERENT THEN THE NISSAN BUT THE FAULTY PART IS THE SAME. ALSO PROBLEMS WITH TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PANEL LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN TIRE PRESSURE IS CORRECT. *TR

I FIRST EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF POWER IN MY VEHICLE WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I STARTED TO GO, EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE. THE ENGINE WOULD REV, BUT THE CAR BARELY HAD ANY POWER. I DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT (HAYES CHRYSLER IN GAINESVILLE) THE STATED IT WAS THEY THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND SENT IT TO THE CARRIAGE NISSAN GARAGE. AFTER HAVING IT THERE FOR A FEW DAYS THE TECHNICIAN SAID HE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM! I LEFT AND BEFORE I COULD EVEN GET 15 MILES DOWN THE ROAD I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 60MPH, WHEN ALL THE SUDDEN I STARTED LOSING SPEED. REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT I HAD THE GAS PEDAL TOO THE FLOOR! I TURNED AROUND AND TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO NISSAN, HOWEVER IN THE LAST 10 MINUTES OF MY DRIVE TO THE SERVICE SHOP THE PROBLEM STOPPED! THEY KEPT IT FOR ANOTHER DAY AND STILL COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS MOST LIKELY THE ABS SENOR THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WE REPLACED THE SENSOR AND I THOUGHT ALL THE PROBLEMS HAD BEEN SOLVED! WRONG!!!! THERE HAVE BEEN 3 INSTANCES WERE I HAVE HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL SET WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN I START LOSING SPEED! THERE HAVE BEEN 4 INSTANCES WHERE I HAVE ALMOST BEEN T-BONES WITH MY 2 SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR BECAUSE THE CAR HAS LOST ACCELERATION IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION!!! THE MORNING I TOOK MY CAR TO THE SHOP THIS TIME (8-25-14) I WA

I HAVE CALLED THE NISSAN RECALL LINE TO PUT A COMPLAINT ON MY NISSAN, ROUGE, RECALL NO. NTB08-095A AND DID NOT WANT TO ACCEPT MY CLAIM SINCE THEY STATE THAT MY VEHICLE DOES NOT APPLY UNDER THIS RECALL. MY VEHICLE HAS THIS SPECIFIC DEFECT WITH THE AIR BAG AND NISSAN HAS STATED CLEARLY THAT THEY ARE WANTING TO FIX THIS AIR BAG (OCS) PROBLEM. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT MY VEHICLE HAS, ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG BEING SUPPRESSED WHICH COULD FAIL TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE PROTECTION IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. I AM OVERLY CONCERN THAT IF I DO HAVE AN ACCIDENT THAT I AM NOT PROTECTED ANY OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS WILL BE HURT, I WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO ADVICE ME WHAT I CAN DO SINCE THIS HAS BEEN A RECALL THAT I HAVE LOOKED IT UP IN THE RECALL SITE OF THE NHTSA. THANKS, *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE'S SPEED SUDDENLY DECREASED. THE CONTACT DROVE ONTO THE EMERGENCY LANE, SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND CONTINUED DRIVING; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000...UPDATED 09-09-14 *BF

MY 2008 NISSAN ROGUE HAS A TENDENCY TO LOSE POWER ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER BEING DRIVEN FOR OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME AT A CONSTANT SPEED, USUALLY ABOUT 45 MINUTES TO AN HOUR AT 75 MILES AN HOUR. THE VEHICLE WILL START MY MAKING A WEIRD WHISTLING OR WHINING NOISE THEN AFTER THAT YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE IT'LL BE STUCK AT WHATEVER SPEED YOUR GOING. WHEN I COME ACROSS A BRIDGE OR A HILL IT'LL SLOW DOWN A BIT THEN ACCELERATE ONCE I'M GOING DOWNHILL THEN STOP AT A SPECIFIC MPH, NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESS ON THE GAS IT WILL NOT GO ANY FURTHER. WHEN I OFF THE HIGHWAY AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND TRY TO TAKE OFF AGAIN IT WILL NOT RESPOND RIGHT AWAY THEN IT WILL TAKE OFF WITH ME AS I'M PRESSING THE GAS, ALMOST RESULTING IN ME RUNNING INTO OTHER VEHICLES SEVERAL TIMES. WHEN I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN IT DOESN'T GIVE ANY ERROR CODES OR SHOW THAT ANYTHING IS WRONG. NISSAN CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT WILLING TO PAY SOMEONE TO GO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR OVER THAT LONG PERIOD OF TIME. I COMMUTE TO WORK AND CHURCH ON THE HIGHWAY FIVE TIMES A WEEK AND EXPERIENCE THIS JUST ABOUT EVERY SINGLE DAY. I DID HOWEVER TAKE THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE EXPERIENCE WHAT THE CAR IS DOING AND HE NOTICED NISSAN PUT TOO MUCH FLUID IN MY TRANSMISSION WHEN THEY REPLACED IT AFTER IT STOPPED ON ME PREVIOUSLY ON THE HIGHWAY, THAT DID SOLVE THE PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL MONTHS BUT NOW IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE THEY INFORM ME THERE'S NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. I D

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING FROM A COMPLETE STOP THERE WAS A BRIEF DELAY IN ACCELERATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED SPORADICALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOUR TIMES. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED TWICE. ADDITIONALLY, ON A SEPARATE OCCASION THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS REPROGRAMMED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AFTER THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

WHILE DRIVING 2008 NISSAN ROGUE ON I-17 INTERSTATE TOWARD FLAGSTAFF, AZ AT POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 75 MPH, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED RAPID LOSS OF SPEED AND POWER IN WHICH PRESSING DOWN ON ACCELERATOR HAD NO EFFECT ON VEHICLE. SEMI-TRUCK NEARLY REAR ENDED OUR VEHICLE. DRIVER OF SEMI-TRUCK MADE SUDDEN LANE CHANGE TO AVOID COLLISION. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT VEHICLE OFF. INSPECTED VEHICLE FOR ANY OBVIOUS SIGNS OF SOURCE OF MALFUNCTION. RESTARTED VEHICLE AFTER 20 MINUTES AND RESUMED TRAVEL WITH NO ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS ON THIS TRIP. THIS MALFUNCTION HAS REPEATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS SINCE, WITH MORE REGULARITY TO DATE. SEEMS TO OCCUR MOST OFTEN WHEN DRIVING TO A HIGHER ELEVATION AFTER AN HOUR OR MORE OF CONTINUOUS OPERATION. WHEN MALFUNCTION OCCURS, ENGINE WILL NOT EXCEED 2500-3000 RPMS EVEN WITH GAS PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED. SINCE ORIGINAL MALFUNCTION, I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED LACK OF ACCELERATION OR HESITATION FROM A COMPLETE STOP WHEN ENTERING INTO TRAFFIC RESULTING IN POTENTIAL UNSAFE CONDITION WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC. MALFUNCTION IS INTERMITTENT, BUT EXTREMELY MORE FREQUENT. I HAVE SINCE READ MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHER OWNERS OF SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE PROBLEM WE ARE HAVING IS THE CAR WILL HESITATE AS IF THE ENGINE STALLS BUT THE TACHOMETER SHOWS A STEADY RPM. THIS HESITATION LASTS FOR JUST A FEW SECONDS BUT IS VERY SUDDEN. THE CAR THEN STARTS GOING AS IF NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. THERE ARE NO LIGHTS COMING ON TO INDICATE ANY PROBLEMS. WHEN I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER THEY CHECK FOR A TROUBLE CODES AND THERE AREN'T ANY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND DIFFERENT CONDITIONS. THE FIRST TIME I JUST HAD TURNED A CORNER AND STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND IT HESITATED THREE TIMES WITHIN 10 TO 15 SECONDS. OUR SPEED DROPPED TO ALMOST A STOP THEN STARTED AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. OTHER TIMES I HAVE BEEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT AND HAVE HAD THE CAR COME ALMOST TO A STOP. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED THREE TIMES. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED ON THE FREEWAY AND HAD THE CAR DROP FROM 65 MPH DOWN TO 40 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. AGAIN ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR WRECK IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE CAR AGAIN STARTED UP AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. ANOTHER TIME I WAS MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY INTO TRAFFIC DOING 70MPH AND HAD IT HESITATE DOWN TO 40MPH IN FRONT OF A SEMI. HE HAD TO LOCK HIS WHEELS TO AVOID REAR ENDING ME, HE COULD NOT GET OVER. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MERGE WITHOUT ANY TROUBLE. I HAD ENOUGH ROOM HAD IT NOT HESITATED. THIS LAST TIME I WAS TURNING ACROSS TWO LANES ONTO AN ENTRANCE RAMP TO THE FREEWAY WHEN IT CAME ALMOST TO A STOP MIDWAY ACROSS THE FIRST LANE I WAS CROSSING. AN ONCOMING CAR HAD TO SWERVE INTO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT EXCESSIVE FORCE WAS APPLIED TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,354. UPDATED 9/29/14*CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING OUT OF WARRANTY. UPDATED 2/26/2015. *JS

THE TRANSMISSION DIED ON MY 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN JUNE 2008, WE HEARD "WHIRING" NOISES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE AND WE HAVE THE NOTATION THAT CUSTOMER COMPLAINED OF WHIRING. RESULT WAS THERE WERE NO ISSUES. CAR HAS CONTINUED TO WHINE THROUGH THE YEARS, IN THE PAST YEAR, IT BECAME WORSE. WE TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC TO BE EVALUATED, AND IMMEDIATELY HE KNEW THE PROBLEM- THE CVT TRANSMISSION. THE MECHANIC DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT NISSAN HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY, VERY QUIETLY. SINCE I DRIVE 70+ MILES TO/FROM WORK, MY CAR WAS ALREADY OVER THE WARRANTY LIMIT. HENCE, LEFT WITH 2 OPTIONS, REPLACEMENT VIA A NISSAN DEALERSHIP COSTING $5,000 AS NO VIABLE MECHANIC WILL TOUCH THE PROBLEM. OR GET RID OF THE CAR. THIS TYPE OF REPAIR WAS NOT IN OUR BUDGET NOR WERE WE IN A POSITION TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE ( THIS ONE WAS PAID FOR). THERE WAS NO GUARANTEE WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WOULD GO OUT, OTHER THAN IT EVENTUALLY WOULD. LATELY, THE NOISE HAD BECOME MUCH WORSE AND WE FEARED THE WORST. THANK GOODNESS, THE CAR DIED IN OUR DRIVEWAY AND NOT THE HIGHWAY. NISSAN KNEW THIS WAS A PROBLEM, APPARENTLY FROM THE BEGINNING, AND IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED THERE IS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER NO MATTER HOW FAR YOU DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO ANY FASTER AND YOU ARE COASTING YOU CAN NOT GO ANY FASTER. THIS HAPPENS WHEN GOING UP HILL ON WHEN THERE IS A GREATER LOAD ON THE TRANSMISSION. YOU CAN NOT MAINTAIN SPEED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THIS CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION FOR THE OCCUPANTS OF THE CAR AS WELL AS THOSE AROUND THEM. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER I WAS TOLD THERE IS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN FOR ALL ROGUES THAT THE TRANSMISSION OVER HEATS AND IT GOES INTO SAFETY OVERRIDE MODE SO IT DOESN'T BLOW UP. IN LIGHT OF THIS ALL ROGUES NEED A TRANSMISSION COOLER INSTALLED AT A COST OF $1300. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 60 MPH MY CAR STARTED TO MAKE A WINDING SOUND BUT MY DASHBOARD DID NOT SHOW ANY WARNING LIGHTS IT QUICKLY STARTED TO LOSE POWER AND I IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO GET OUT OF THE FREEWAY. WHEN EXITING THE FREEWAY AND CROSSING A BUSY INTERSECTION MY CARD WOULD NOT RESPOND WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS, IT WAS NOT ACCELERATING AT ALL; MY SON QUICKLY ACTED AND PUSHED MY VEHICLE FROM THE BACK TO HELP ME CROSS THE INTERSECTION AND PARK SAFELY. IT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS THAT A CAR CAN DECELERATES SO FAST WITHOUT WARNING. *JS

TRAVELING LONG DISTANCE ON THE HIGHWAY. ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR IN A NORMAL MANNER ACCOMPANIED BY WHINY NOISES. PRESSED ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR AND RPMS WOULD INCREASE EXTREMELY SLOWLY AND NOT ABOVE 3000 RPMS. CONTINUED FOR THE REMAINING 2.5 HOURS OF OUR TRIP. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ON OUR WAY HOME MULTIPLE TIMES. HAD EXTREME DIFFICULTY AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY AND HAVING TO STOP. VEHICLE BARELY MOVED FORWARD. *TR

TWICE DURING APRIL 2014 MY 2008 ROGUE WAS AT THE DEALER TO DIAGNOSE WHY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT THE CODE WAS IN THE PAST TENSE AND THEY COULD NOT DO ANY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING SINCE IT WAS NOT AN ACTIVE CODE (B1018). WITHOUT DOING ANY TESTING, I WAS TOLD THAT TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT CUSHION ($2,500). WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN RECALL 2008-10-07 DID NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN USA CONSUMER AFFAIRS ON 4/22/14 AND REQUESTED THAT MY VEHICLE BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL SINCE NISSAN IS AWARE OF PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAGS IN THE 2008 NISSAN ROGUES. NISSAN REFUSED MY REQUEST AND STATED THAT AIRBAGS ARE SECONDARY SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND THEY WOULD NOT FIX THE DEFECT SINCE SEAT BELTS ARE CONSIDERED THE PRIMARY SAFETY FEATURE. AT THIS POINT I DON'T KNOW IF MY AIRBAG SYSTEM IS EVEN OPERATIONAL SINCE THE LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED. NISSAN HAS ISSUED RECALLS ON THE ROGUE AND OTHER MODELS FOR DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS SO I THINK THE PROBLEM IS IMPACTING MORE VEHICLES THAN THEY REALIZE AND I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD BE PAYING OUT OF POCKET TO REPAIR. WHAT MORE CAN I DO TO GET NISSAN TO STEP UP AND FIX THE PROBLEM? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE AN ADULT PASSENGER WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT SEAT, THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS OFF AND THAT THE AIR BAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY IF A CRASH OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INDICATED THAT THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM LOCATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 08V521000(AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE IDENTICAL FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

DRIVING AND SUDDENLY THE CAR WENT FROM 70MPH TO 50MPH. UNABLE TO GET IT TO GO ANY FASTER. TRANSMISSION IN SOME SORT OF SAFE MODE FROM OVERHEATING OR SOMETHING. I WAS ALMOST RUN INTO BY THE CAR BEHIND ME. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND EVERY TIME I HAVE ONLY NARROWLY AVOIDED A COLLISION. NISSAN SAYS THEY HAVE A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER THE PARTS ARE ON RESTRICTION, MEANING THAT THE DEALER CAN'T EVEN GET THEM IN. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND A RECALL ISSUED ASAP BEFORE PEOPLE START DYING FROM THIS PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN I GO TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK I WILL LET IT RUN UNTIL IT STOPS AT THE PUMP THEN PUMP IN A LITTLE MORE TO GET IT TO AN EVEN DOLLAR AMOUNT, I WILL THEN GET IN THE CAR AND THE GAS GAUGE DOES NOT SHOW FULL. FOR SOME REASON THE FIRST "TICK" ON THE GAS GAUGE WILL NEVER COME ON NO MATTER HOW MUCH GAS YOU PUT IN THE CAR. AS FOR THE WHETHER OR NOT THE REST OF IT IS ACCURATE I AM NOT QUITE SURE. I TRY TO KEEP A DECENT AMOUNT OF GAS IN THE TANK BECAUSE I QUESTION ITS ACCURACY. *TR

MY GIRLFRIEND AND I OWN A NISSAN ROGUE THAT HAS A FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSION THAT HAS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED TWICE WITHIN THE PAST TWO YEARS. WE DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS FAULTY BECAUSE THE VEHICLE DECELERATES WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. AS THE CAR SLOWS, YOU CAN PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT GO ABOVE WHATEVER SPEED IT WAS LOWERED TO. IF YOU NEED TO SLOW FOR WHATEVER REASON, THE CAR WILL BE RELEGATED TO A CRAWL WHICH IS A HUGE DANGER ON THE FREEWAY. WITH THAT SAID, NISSAN REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION INITIALLY AND WHILE WE BELIEVED OUR PROBLEMS WERE SOLVED, ABOUT A MONTH AGO WE DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR WAS ONCE AGAIN DECELERATING WHILE WE WERE BRINGING MY GIRLFRIEND'S YEAR AND A HALF YEAR OLD NIECE BACK HOME WITH US FROM LOS ANGELES. THANKFULLY WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE IT BACK HOME AND IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. AGAIN, IT WAS THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND AGAIN WE GOT IT REPLACED. WE WERE TOLD BY THE NISSAN MECHANIC THAT THE PHOENIX HEAT QUICKLY CAUSES THE CVT TRANSMISSION TO BREAK DOWN AND TOLD US THAT IT WILL LIKELY HAPPEN AGAIN WITHIN TWO YEARS. IT WAS AT THIS POINT THAT WE DECIDED TO CONTACT NISSAN AND PUSH FOR A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THIS TRANSMISSION. WE CAN'T AFFORD IT FINANCIALLY AND WE DON'T WANT TO RISK IT AND CONTINUE ON WITH OUR VEHICLE IF WE KNOW THAT IF WE PUSH IT, IT COULD BE UNSAFE. I ESCALATED THIS ISSUE THROUGH THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT, BUT AFTER SPEAKING WITH THEIR REPRESENTATIVES, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY

I STARTED TO NOTICE THE PROBLEM WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT ON TO A BUSY ROAD THAT WAS ON A SLIGHT HILL. FOR SOME REASON THE CAR WOULD NOT GO WHEN YOU HIT THE GAS. AFTER A WHILE OF DOING THIS A LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. WHATEVER THEY DID SEEM TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM OF THE CAR NOT ACCELERATING WHEN ON A HILL. BUT THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINED THAT IF YOU DROVE FOR SO LONG (5-10 MIN) ON THE INTERSTATE 65+ MPH THEN CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FOR A FEW MINUTES (I SAT THROUGH A STOP LIGHT AND A HALF TRYING TO GET THE CAR GOING). I THINK THIS IS RELATED TO THE FUNNY SOUND THE CAR MAKES WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS. ANY WAYS I TOOK THE CAR IN TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG AS THIS COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM IF IT ALLOWS YOU TO ROLL HALFWAY INTO AN INTERSECTION BUT THEN WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID IT SOUNDS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION COOLER ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THEY SAID THIS WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE 120,000 MILE EXTENDED WARRANTY NISSAN PLACED ON 2008-2010 ROGUES. IT SEEMS LIKE NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM SINCE THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BUT THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THE PARTS FOR SOME REASON. MY MOM HAS A 2010 ROGUE WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND FELT AS IF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS APPLIED. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED IN HIGH GEAR. THE HESITATION RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY FOR OVER TWO MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND BEGAN DECELERATING RAPIDLY. AFTER PUSHING THE GAS MULTIPLE TIMES, THE VEHICLE REMAINED UNRESPONSIVE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 20MPH WHICH WAS VERY DANGEROUS IN AN 80 MPH SPEED ZONE ON A STATE HIGHWAY. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE FOR 30 MINUTES. UPON STARTING IT UP AGAIN AND CONTINUING ON MY TRIP, THE VEHICLE REPEATED THE PROBLEM WITHIN ANOTHER HOUR OF DRIVING. WHEN THIS OCCURS NOW, VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE FROM A FULL STOP. THIS IS EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS IN TOLL BOOTHS OR RED LIGHTS, AS OTHER CARS TAKE THE LIBERTY OF DRIVING BY AS I AM PUMPING THE GAS. RANDOMLY THE CAR WILL KICK BACK INTO GEAR AND JUT OUT INTO TRAFFIC, WHICH HAS ALMOST CAUSED TWO DIFFERENT ACCIDENTS. *TR

WE NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS GAUGE A FEW MONTHS AGO AND LAST WEEK THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED OUR MECHANIC AND HE HAD SAID THERE WAS A NOTICE THAT CAME UP ABOUT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT NOT READING CORRECTLY ON ANOTHER YEAR ROGUE. I ASKED IF WE CAN BRING IT IN AND HE SAID HE WOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I LOOKED ON THIS SITE AFTER READING SEVERAL NISSAN FORUMS AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A PERSISTENT PROBLEM WITH ROGUES. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM IF SO MANY ROGUES HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT AND SO MANY MECHANICS KNOW ABOUT IT. ESPECIALLY THE 2008. THIS PROBLEM STARTS AS SOON AS YOU START UP THE CAR. BEFORE IT WOULD START WORKING CORRECTLY BUT NOW THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES ON AND IT STAYS AT E OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE ALL THE TIME. *TR

WE BOUGHT A CAR LAST MONDAY ON MAY 26, 2014 AT ANTWERPEN NISSAN SECURITY DEALERSHIP (1701 WOODLAWN DRIVE, BALTIMORE, MD 21207). PLEASE FIND THE CAR DETAILS: YEAR: 2008 MAKE: NISSAN MODEL: ROGUE BODY TYPE: 4DR SL FWD TRIM: SL BLACK VIN: [XXX] ODOMETER: 78321 WITH A DEALER WARRANTY FOR ONE MONTH OR 1000 MILES, POWERTRAIN ONLY ; FOR THE TOTAL CASH DELIVERED PRICE OF $13,000.00 (THIRTEEN THOUSAND US DOLLARS) ALREADY PAID BY CHECK ON MAY 26, 2014. THE SECOND DAY WE WERE FACING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AS THE MOTOR WAS OVERHEATED IN VERY FEW MILES, IT WAS SMELLING SMOKY INSIDE AND THE MOTOR WAS MAKING CRACKING NOISES EVEN WHEN IT WAS TURNED OFF. WE CALLED IMMEDIATELY THE SALES MANAGER AND LET HIM KNOW THAT WE WANT TO TURN THE CAR BACK AS IT IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE DAY AFTER WE ALMOST GET AN ACCIDENT IN THE TRAFFIC THAT PUT OUR LIFE IN DANGER. THE CAR LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING: GAS PEDAL WAS FULLY PUSHED DOWN AND THE TACHOMETER SHOWED 3500 RPM WHILE THE SPEED HARDLY REACHED 20 MPH FOR ABOUT 2 MILES TILL WE PULLED OVER AT BEL AIR ROAD. WE DECIDED TO CALL THE GENERAL MANAGER FOR TURNING THE CAR BACK AS IT WAS WITHIN THE WARRANTY AND I WAS VERY CLEAR TO HIM THAT I DO NOT WANT THAT CAR ANY MORE. HE AGREED TO DO SO, AND ON LAST FRIDAY MAY 30TH, 2014, THEY CARRIED THE CAR FROM OUR HOME LOCATION. WE REQUESTED THE MONEY BACK. SINCE THAT DAY WE HAVE BEING WAITING FOR DAYS AND HOURS IN THE DEALERSHIP OFFICES FOR A RESPONSE OF OUR REQUEST, BUT THEY LIED TO US ALL THE TIME AND LAST NIGHT A

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND SHUTTERED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE DEFECT WAS ALSO PRESENT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DEFECT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 146,000.

2008 NISSAN ROGUE LOSES ACCELERATION UNEXPECTEDLY, PLACING THE DRIVER IN VERY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. WHEN DRIVING UP HILL, AFTER LOSING ACCELERATION WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC FOLLOWING, WHERE OTHER VEHICLES HAVE TO SLAM ON BRAKES OR DANGEROUSLY SWERVE TO GET OF THE WAY OF OUR NISSAN WHICH IS BARELY MOVING FORWARD. SEVERAL SEMIS HAVE HAD TO MAKE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS MANEUVERS IN ORDER NOT TO REAR-END OUR NISSAN. FIRST TRANSMISSION REPLACED WITH 66284 MILES - NOW SECOND TRANSMISSION IS DOING THE SAME THING AT 126000 MILES. VERY UNSAFE! HAVE READ OF MANY OTHER SIMILAR SITUATIONS WITH NISSAN ROGUE CVT TRANSMISSIONS. *TR

VEHICLE HAS SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER DUE TO OVERHEATING OF TRANSMISSION FLUID CAUSING VEHICLE TO GO INTO A LIMP MODE REDUCING SPEED TO APPROXIMATELY 40-50 MPH. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR 2 OR MORE HOURS. ONCE COMING TO A STOP, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL...COMPLETELY POWERLESS. HAVE HAD TO A NISSAN DEALER 4 TIMES RECEIVING NOTHING MORE THAN A BAND-AID TEMPORARY REPAIR BY DRAINING SOME OF THE TRANS FLUID RATHER THAN INSTALLING A BETTER TRANSMISSION COOLING SYSTEM. NISSAN HAS KNOW ABOUT HUNDREDS OF CASES OVER THE COURSE OF 7 YEARS AND TO DATE HAS NO CREDIBLE REPAIR, THUS TOTALLY IGNORING CONSUMERS SAFETY. THERE ARE TENS OF REVIEWS REGARDING THIS BY CONCERNED CONSUMERS. THIS IS A FATALITY( IF NOT ALREADY) WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WEST FROM ST. LOUIS, MO TO BOULDER, CO AND ABOUT HALF WAY INTO MY DRIVE MY 2008 NISSAN ROGUE S AWD HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE BUT THE RPM OF THE ENGINE CLIMBED WHEN I PRESSED THE PEDAL. I CAME TO A STOP AND I COULD HEAR THE TRANSMISSION MAKING AN WHINING NOISE. I CHECKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND DID NOT SEE ANY FLUID LEAKS OR ANY DAMAGE. WHEN I GOT BACK ON THE ROAD THE CAR WORKED NORMALLY FOR A WHILE BUT THEN BEGAN TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. THIS OCCURRED FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP, SOMETIMES WORKING NORMALLY, AND SOMETIMES NOT. *TR

MY CAR'S "CHECK ENGINE SOON" SIGNAL CAME ON AND WHEN I GOT IT CHECKED OUT I WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE A FAULTY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR. AFTER SOME RESEARCH ONLINE IT'S APPARENT THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE MAKE AND MODEL. I WOULD LIKE TO PUT IN A COMPLAINT SO THAT WE COULD REQUEST RECALL ACTION ON THIS ISSUE AS IT'S A COMMON ISSUE HAPPENING TO A LOT OF NISSAN ROGUE CONSUMERS. *TR

BEGAN TO LOSE POWER AFTER 2 HOURS OF DRIVING-WAS TOLD AT DEALER THAT CAR WAS GOING INTO SAFE MODE. FLUIDS WERE CHANGED AT CONSIDERABLE COST APPROX 6 MONTHS AGO. YESTERDAY I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP AT A TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND WITHOUT WARNING I HAD NO POWER, HAD TO COAST TO SAFETY. THERE WERE NO SOUNDS, NO LIGHTS OF WARNING ON DASH. DEALERSHIP INDICATES TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $3500. THEY WILL NOT ENTERTAIN ANY WARRANTY COMPENSATION AS WE HAVE PASSES THE EXTENDED 120,000 WARRANTY. CLEARLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CVT COMPONENT, VERY DISAPPOINTING. *TR

CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK AT TIMES )WITH BRAKE APPLIED PROPERLY), OR WOULD EVENTUALLY SHIFT OUT OF PARK AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS, THEN FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK AT ALL, MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. ..UPDATED 04-16-14 *BF
