2011 Nissan Rogue complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDERGOING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED DUE TO WATER LEAKAGE THAT CAUSED AN ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE. THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V032000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT ASSOCIATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,200.

THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT IN A GARAGE. THE ENTIRE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN SMOKE AND MUCH OF THE INTERIOR DRIVER'S SIDE MELTED WITH THE HEAT. MY FAMILY WOKE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO THE SOUND OF THE HORN CONTINUOUSLY BLARING. WE DISCOVERED A SMOLDERING FIRE INSIDE THE CAR WHICH WAS EXTINGUISHED BY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REMOVED FROM OUR PROPERTY AND IS BELIEVED TO BE A TOTAL LOSS. WE LATER DISCOVERED A RECENTLY-ISSUED RECALL FOR CORROSION OF THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS BELOW THE FLOOR MATS, CAUSING A SHORT IN THE ELECTRICAL PANEL - THIS APPEARS TO BE THE CAUSE OF THE INCIDENT BUT IT IS CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION BY OUR INSURANCE COMPANY AND NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. *JS

THE RADIO BACK UP CAMERA AIR CONDITIONING AND HEATING ARE SHORTING OUT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE SPECIFICS OF THE FAILURE EXPERIENCED WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROUGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD SPORADICALLY FLASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OCS CONTROL UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXHIBITING THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 08V521000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,234.

BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY THE POWER STEERING WOULD MAKE A NOISE AND MOMENTARILY CATCH. THIS HAPPENED FOR ABOUT10 DAYS AND I TOOK IT TO MY CAR REPAIR SHOP AND THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS LEAKING ON THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL PANEL WAS MALFUNCTIONING. I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW ELECTRONIC COLUMN ASSEMBLY. I HAD IT TOED TO THE NISSAN DEALER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AFTER THE RPM GAUGE FLUCTUATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT 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 76,000.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT TURNS ON AND THE AIRBAG SHUTS OFF WHILE A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENED AT 50,000 MILES AND NISSAN REPLACED THE SEAT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT 79,000 AND NISSAN WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP TURNED OFF THE BLINKING LIGHT BUT AGAIN WHEN A PERSON SAT IN THE SEAT THE AIRBAG TURNED OFF AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE IF THE AIRBAG IS WORKING. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY (100,000 MILES) BUT THEY STILL REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT NISSAN HAS RECALLED OLDER AND NEWER MODELS OF THE ROGUE. I DID RESEARCH ON-LINE AND THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH ROGUES AND OTHER NISSAN VEHICLE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM FOR THE SAFETY OF PASSENGERS BECAUSE FOR NO REASON THE AIRBAG MALFUNCTIONS DURING USE AND WHERE IT IS SAFE TO PULL OVER. I CALLED THE NISSAN COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT AND THEY TOLD ME I SHOULD BE HAPPY BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IT OCCURS MORE FREQUENTLY. I'M NOT HAPPY OR IMPRESSED, STILL NO RECALL. PLEASE HELP THERE ARE CITIZENS THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND NISSAN IS IGNORING US. *JS

ON SEPTEMBER 26, 2013 I HAD BROUGHT MY 2011 NISSAN ROGUE CAR IN FOR SERVICE BECAUSE MY REAR RIGHT DOOR WAS NOT LOCKING/UNLOCKING PROPERLY, AS IT TURNED OUT THE LATCH WAS DEFECTIVE, IT WAS REPLACED. TWO MONTHS LATER, I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE DRIVER''S DOOR WAS HAVING PROBLEMS LOCKING/UNLOCKING. AS IT TURNED OUT THAT LATCH WAS DEFECTIVE AS WELL. (THAT LATCH WAS REPLACED ON DECEMBER 3, 2013.) DURING THIS VISIT I ASKED THAT ALL THE DOORS BE CHECKED (WHILE UNDER WARRANTY) BECAUSE IT SEEMED THAT PERHAPS THIS WAS A DEFECT IN THE CAR''S MANUFACTURING. MY WARRANTY HAS SINCE EXPIRED AS OF MAY, 2014 AND TWO MONTHS LATER IN AUGUST, 2014 THE REAR DRIVER''S DOOR AND NOW THE FRONT PASSENGER''S DOOR ARE MALFUNCTIONING. (DOORS HAVE TO BE OPEN/CLOSED AND LOCKED/UNLOCKED MANUALLY.) THIS NOT ONLY IS A BURDEN, BUT AS A SINGLE WOMEN IT IS A SECURITY RISK NOT ONLY TO MY PERSON BUT TO THE VEHICLE ITSELF. I HAD CONTACTED DEALERSHIP ON BOTH OF THESE ISSUES AT THE TIME OF THE MALFUNCTIONS, AND THEY HAD ADVISED ME THAT THEY CAN ONLY REPAIR THE PROBLEM AT MY EXPENSE SINCE THE WARRANTY HAS SINCE RUN OUT. (NEEDLESS TO SAY, I REALLY DON''T UNDERSTAND THE DEALERSHIP''S POSITION ON THIS ISSUE CONCERNING THE PROBLEMS LEADING UP TO A TOTAL MALFUNCTIONING OF LOCKING/UNLOCKING SYSTEM, SINCE IT HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE AND WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM AT THEIR DEALERSHIP.) *TR

WHILE RELOCATING FROM MD TO TN (APPROX. 11 HOURS) IN JULY, TRAVELING THE INTERSTATE VEHICLE BEGAN LOSING ACCELERATION AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS OF DRIVING. VEHICLE NEVER STOPPED NOT OVERHEATED. AFTER BRIEF RESTING PERIODS (15 MINS OR MORE), VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IMPROVED BUT NEVER RETURNED TO NORMAL. UPON ARRIVAL TO TN, VEHICLE WAS CHECKED FOR CLOGGED FUEL INJECTORS AND OIL/BATTERY LEVELS AND FUNCTIONS. ALL WERE FINE. CHANGED GAS FROM REGULAR TO PREMIUM TO MINIMIZE/CORRECT POSSIBLE PROBLEMS. A FEW WEEKS LATER, A 3 HOUR TRIP WAS TAKEN AND THE ISSUE RECURRED. TOOK THE CAR TO CARMAX WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND THEY TRIED TO RECREATE THE ISSUE AND HAD THE VEHICLE ALL DAY WITHOUT DUPLICATION. IN AUGUST, RELOCATED FROM TN TO GA, APPROXIMATELY A 3 HOUR TRIP, AND THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION, CAR WAS THERE FOR ALMOST A MONTH AS THE ROOT CAUSE WAS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION SETTING THAT PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM ACCELERATING IF THE TRANSMISSION GOT TOO HOT. TURNS OUT THE SETTING WAS SO LOW THAT THE ABOVE-MENTIONED PROBLEMS OCCURRED. I ENDED UP HAVING TO HAVE A TRANSMISSION REPLACED IN A RELATIVELY NEW CAR (3 YRS OLD). *TR

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE AWL, PURSHCSED NEW FROM MAGUIRE NISSAN LEBANON, PA THE ORIGINAL TIRES ARE DUNLOP SP SPORTS 7000AS LINE SIZEP225/55R18/SL. THE VEHICLE UNDER 10,000 MILES PRODUCED A WHIPPING SOUND WHICH ALTERED IN PITCH WITH THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE. THESE TIRES WERE ROTATED PER MANUFACUTES INSTRUCTION, ALIGNED AND BALANCED EVERY 5000 MILES. THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO MAGUIRE NISSAN ON THREE OCCASSIONS AT WHICH TIME THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE . THE NISSAN CORPORATION WAS CONTACTED BY ME AND SO WAS DUNLOP TIRES. THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THREE OF THE TIRES SHOWED BUMPS ON THE TREAD SURFACE, BUT REFUSED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR POOR MANUFACTURING QUALITY. THEY CLAIMED THE TIRES HAD NOT FAILED; THEREFORE, THEY HAD NO RESPONSIBILITIES TO REPLACE THESE TIRES. THE CAR HAS NOW DONE 33,000 MILES AND THE PROBLEM HAS PROGRESSIVELY WORSENED TO THE EXTENT THE NOISE FROM THE TIRES ARE DEAFENING AND RESULTS IN SEVERE STRAIN AND NOISE FATIGUE WHILE DRIVING. I RECENTLY HAD AN ESTIMATE TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES AND THE COST PER WAL MART WOULD BE $964. THE NTSB?S RECORD IN PURSUING THESE CORPORATE CRIMINALS AND ENSURING THE SAFETY OF THE MOTORING PUBLIC HAS AT BEST BEEN INDIFFERENT AND AT WORST COLLUSIVE AND COMPLICIT. DO PEOPLE RECALL THE TIRE FAILURES ON FORD EXPLORES, THE IGNITION SWITCHES DEBACLE IN GMC VEHICLES AND THE ACCELERATOR ISSUES WITH TOYOTA. LET US SEE IF YOU HAVE ANY TEETH OR ARE YOU THE TOOTHLESS WONDERS THAT THE PUBLIC HAVE NOW COME TO BELIEVE Y

THIS INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN EXACTLY THE SAME MANNER: I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT; WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED, AND I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE AS THE CAR ROLLED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. I PUSHED SEVERAL TIMES AS TRAFFIC WAITED BEHIND ME. SUDDENLY IT "CAUGHT," THE POWER RETURNED, AND I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE (THE ENGINE DID NOT REV WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED). LIKE OTHERS, I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED (AS ARE THOSE WHO COMMUTE WITH ME), ABOUT BEING CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION AND HIT BROAD-SIDED. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE ALSO HAS A PROBLEM WITH A BLINKING AIR-BAG WARNING LIGHT (BEGAN IN OCT.) WHICH WE TRIED TO HAVE FIXED AT THE SAME TIME. THE DEALERSHIP RESET IT, BUT UPON DRIVING OUT THE OF THE LOT, IT BEGAN BLINKING AGAIN. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A "POSSIBLE INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH AIR BAG MODULE OR SPIRAL CABLE," AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR WHICH HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED YET. *TR

TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE FROM COLUMBIA, SC TO CLINTON, SC 2011 NISSAN ROGUE BEGAN LOOSING POWER AND WOULD NOT MAINTAIN HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN CLIMBING HILLS. WITH ACCELERATOR PUSHED TO FLOOR VEHICLE SPEED DROPPED FROM 70 DOWN TO 50-55 ON INCLINES. DECELERATION CONTINUED AS LONG AS VEHICLE WAS ON INCLINE. SPEED INCREASED WHEN VEHICLE CRESTED HILL. PULLED OVER, CHECKED TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ALLOWED VEHICLE TO COOL. ONCE VEHICLE COOLED PROBLEM CORRECTED AND WE WERE ABLE TO RETURN TO COLUMBIA. TOOK VEHICLE TO DICK SMITH NISSAN IN LEXINGTON SC FOR REPAIR. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO RECREATE PROBLEM AND INDICATED NO CODES INDICATED. PROBLEM RECURRED IN MAY 2014 WHEN RETURNING TO LEXINGTON, SC FROM CHARLESTON. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 45 MINUTES AT HIGHWAY SPEED (70-75 MPH) PROBLEM RE-OCCURRED. SAME SYMPTOMS - LOSS OF ACCELERATION ON INCLINES - CAUSED VEHICLE TO DROP FROM TRAFFIC AND UNABLE TO MAINTAIN SAFE SPEED. PULLED OVER AT REST AREA - CHECKED VEHICLE. AGAIN REPORTED PROBLEM TO DEALER BUT UNABLE TO RECREATE PROBLEM. OCTOBER 2014 - PROBLEM RECURRED TRAVELING FROM LEXINGTON TO ATLANTA. SAME SYMPTOMS LOSS OF POWER AND SPEED ON UPHILL GRADE - UNABLE TO MAINTAIN HIGHWAY SPEED. EXITED HIGHWAY AT AUGUSTA AFTER 1 HOUR ON INTERSTATE. WHEN TRIED TO TURN LEFT FROM STOP OFF OF EXIT RAMP -PUSHED ACCELERATOR - VEHICLE STARTED FORWARD AND THEN LOST POWER IN INTERSECTION BLOCKING TWO LANES OF CROSS TRAFFIC. VEHICLE CREPT THROUGH INTERSECTION VERY LUCKY WE WERE NOT STRUCK BY CROSS TRAFFIC. PLAN TO RETURN VEHI

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN I-95 WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AT A SPEED OF 75 -78 MPH FROM MARYLAND TO GEORGIA, SOMEWHERE ALONG NORTH CAROLINA MY ENGINE STARTED TO LOOSE ACCELERATION. IT DID NOT DIE OUT. I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT GO OVER 60 MPH WITH THE GAS PEDDLE PRESS ALL THE WAY DOWN. ONCE I TURN THE ROUGE OFF AND WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES I HEARD A CLICK AND STARTED IT VEHICLE UP AND DROVE WITH NO PROBLEMS UNTIL I WAS ABOUT A 100 MILES FROM GEORGIA AND HAD TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN. THERE WAS NO CODES LIGHTS AND I STILL PUT A READER ON IT AND NOTHING SHOWED UP. IT HAS BEEN PUZZLING IF YOU ACCELERATE FOR TO LONG AND THE VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN IN TRAFFIC. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE FAILSAFE MODE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATED ONCE CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO LEAK. THE DEALER TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE BUT WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

WHILE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION THE CAR WOULD BARLEY MOVE WITH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, I HAD MY 4 YEAR OLD CHILD WITH ME AND TRAFFIC HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO LET ME ON THE ROAD, THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND THE CAR ONLY HAS 56,000 MILES ON IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AND SPEED HAS DECREASED WITH THE PEDAL PUSHED TO THE FLOOR AND VEHICLES HAD TO SWERVE TO GET AROUND ME. *TR

COMING HOME FROM LONG (06/2013) TRIP; HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC HIGHWAY CAR STARTED VIBRATING & WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS. IT WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED AND IT SLOWED DOWN, STALLING DRASTICALLY & PULLED ASIDE TO TURNED CAR OFF AND LET THE CAR COOL BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. THE WINDOWS AND RADIO WOULD WORK BUT THE ENGINE WOULD STALL AND NOT TURN ON. WAITED 20 MIN THE CAR TURNED ON AGAIN. REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO NISSAN SERVICE & THEY STATED THE BRAKE SWITCH NEED REPLACEMENT; WAS REPLACED. ON (11/13) & COMING HOME THE ISSUED STARTED AGAIN. THE ENGINE VIBRATED, STALLED, & NOT ACCELERATE. REPORTED TO NISSAN SERVICE AND THEY FOUND NO ISSUES. THIRD, TIME 07/2014 SAME ISSUE SERVICE LOOKED AT THE CAR; FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN STATING 08-12 ROGUES HAVE CVT FAILURE WHEN DRIVING 65 MPH AND HIGHER, TEMP OF 96 DEGREE OR HIGHER; CLIMBING STEEP OR EXTENDED HILLS FOR 6 OR MORE MILES, & WHINE OR RATTLE NOISE REDUCING ENGINE PERFORMANCE. TOLD THE PART WOULD BE ORDERED; AFTER 2 WEEKS SERVICE STATED PART IS BACK ORDER AND NOT SURE WHEN WILL BE IN. I REPORTED TO CORP & THEY STATED THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE DUE TO BACK ORDER TIL THE END OF SEPTEMBER 2014. TOLD NISSAN I FEAR FOR MY LIFE & FAMILY WHEN TAKING LONG DRIVES & BEEN RENTING CAR; IF THEY WOULD REIMBURSE OR PROVIDE ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE THE PART COMES IN THEY STATED NO THEY DO NOT REIMBURSE OR PROVIDE RENTAL. HOW CAN NISSAN KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND RISK THE LIVES OF FAMILY. ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMETHING MASSIVE AND DANGE

I WAS ON A TRIP TO SAN DIEGO (VIA THE 5 FWY) ON SATURDAY AND WHEN I AM ABOUT 1 1/2 HOUR INTO MY TRIP AND STARTED TO GO UP AN INCLINE THE CAR REFUSED TO ACCELERATE (THE PEDAL WAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THIS WAS QUITE SCARY SINCE THERE WERE NUMEROUS CARS AND TRUCKS BEHIND ME. I SLOWLY MADE MY WAY OVER TO THE SHOULDER IN ORDER TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR I WAS ONLY ABLE TO ACCELERATE TO 20 MPH TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY. I EVEN TRIED PUTTING THE CAR INTO LOW GEAR AND TURNING OD ON AND OFF BUT THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND AT ALL. I THEN PULLER OVER FOR ABOUT 1/2 HOUR THEN RESTARTED THE CAR. NOW IT WAS RESPONDING TO ACCELERATION BUT THE RESPONSE WAD INTERMITTENTLY. THE CAR WASN'T DRIVING NORMAL AT ALL. THEN I FINALLY MADE IT TO MY DESTINATION WHERE THE CAR THEN SET FOR SEVERAL HOURS. WHEN I LEFT TO RETURN HOME THE CAR RETURNED TO ITS NORMAL BEHAVIOR RESPONSE. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2013 USED WITH 38000 MILES AFTER ABOUT 60000 MILES I NOTICED THAT AT A STOP LIGHT IT WOULD NOT GO WHEN I ACCELERATED AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT WOULD GO, THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES. THERE WAS NO WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE SO I PURCHASED A EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE NEXT INCIDENT WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALL OF A SUDDEN THE RPM'S STARTED GOING REAL HIGH AND THEN THE CAR SLOWLY LOST POWE,R AT THIS TIME I HAD ABOUT 2000 MILES LEFT ON MY WARRANTY TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP WHERE THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG . I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WHICH BY NOW THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THE CAR WAS GETTING TO THE POINT THAT WHEN IT HAPPENED I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO WAIT AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT WOULD GAIN POWER AGAIN, I THEN TOOK IT TO NISSAN WHERE THE TOLD ME IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION, I TOOK IT FOR A SECOND OPINION WHERE THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION WHICH THEY SAY IS CRAZING FOR AS LITTLE MILES AND BEING A SOME WHAT NEW CAR. IT COST ME 2600.00 COMPARED TO NISSAN WHICH WANTED 3800.00. THE PROBLEM I HAD WAS THAT I DRIVE ABOUT 84 MILES FROM HOME TO WORK AND IT STARED TO GET WHERE I COULDN'T TRUST THAT CAR. FROM WHAT I READ AND WAS TOLD FROM NISSAN IS THAT THE ALTAMA HAS VERY SIMILAR PROBLEMS TO WHERE THE SEE A CAR A DAY WITH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WHICH IS NOT RIGHT, WHY SHOULD WE CONSUMERS GET STUCK WITH COSTLY REPAIRS ON A FAIRLY NEW VEHICLE. MY CAR NEVER HAD A ENGINE LIGHT THAT CAME ON THEY ONLY WAY I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG IS WH

VEHICLE WAS ON THE INTERSTATE( GOING HOME AFTER FAMILY VACATION) GOING 70 MPH WHEN WITHOUT WARNING THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, IN FACT THE CAR DROPPED DOWN SPEED RAPIDLY. AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF FAST MOVING TRAFFIC AND COULD NOT GAIN SPEED. EVENTUALLY PULLING OVER, LETTING THE TRANSMISSION COOL OFF. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CARS CVT TRANSMISSION AND ONCE IT OVERHEATS IT PUTS ITSELF INTO " LIMP MODE" SO IT DOESN'T KILL ITSELF?THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PART. I SPOKE TOT HE SERVICE TECHNICIAN AND HE SAYS THAT I NEED TO BRING IT IN TO DIAGNOSE IT EVEN THOUGH HE IS ABOUT 99% SURE THAT THIS IS THE PROBLEM AND THAT NISSAN WILL PAY TO FIX IT ( I THINK BY PUTTING IN A COOLER OR REPLACING THE TRANS) BUT THAT THERE ARE 15 VEHICLES AHEAD OF ME AT THE CURRENT MOMENT AND THE PARTS ARE BACKORDERED AT LEAST FOR 3 WEEKS. NISSAN FURTHER GOES TO SAY THAT A RENTAL CAR IS NOT AN OPTION?HOW IS THIS A CONSUMERS FAULT? HOW CAN NISSAN GET AWAY WITH THIS? I LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND I CANNOT DRIVE THIS CAR AND BECAUSE NISSAN IS BACKED UP ON MAKING PARTS TO MAKE THEIR CARS WORK, THAT BECOMES MY PROBLEM? I HAVE ASKED FOR A REGIONAL SPECIALIST AND HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER BUT HAVE YET TO TALK TO ANYONE AND THIS IS NOW GOING ON FOUR DAYS. MEANWHILE I HAVE AN UNSAFE CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE AND PAY MONEY FOR EVERY MONTH. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED SO OTHERS ARE INFORMED AND NO ONE IS CAUGHT OFF GUARD WHEN YOUR CAR SUDDENLY DOESN'T GO

WAS DRIVING MY 2011 ROUGE HOME ON A 120 MILE TRIP ON THE INTERSTATE AND AFTER ABOUT AND HOUR OF DRIVING THE CALL SUDDENLY REFUSED TO ACCELERATE PAST 3000 RPM. THERE WAS ABOUT 20 MILES BETWEEN EXISTS AND THIS BECAME A SAFETY CONCERN WHILE TRYING TO CLIMB AN INCLINE; THE CAR DECELERATED FROM 70 MPH TO 45 MPH AND I COULD NOT DO ENOUGH TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF OTHER TRAFFIC. AFTER 15 MILES OR SO OF DRIVING, IT RETURNED TO NORMAL. IT HAS SINCE OCCURRED 3 MORE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR TRIPS OVER AN HOUR. I TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON 4/21/14 AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE NO CODES WERE PRODUCED. *TR

TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO BURN OUT, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR CVT FLUID FLUSH. WAS NOT AWARE OF RECALL UNTIL AFTER INCIDENT OCCURRED, AFTER CONTACTING NNA. ALSO WAS EXPERIENCING LOSS OF POWER WHEN DRIVING UP HILLS OR SPEEDS ABOVE 70 MPH. I MENTIONED TO DEALERSHIP, THEY ADVISED TO GET CVT TRANNY FLUID FLUSHED AND REFILLED. RECALL WAS NEVER ADDRESSED TO ME AT PREVIOUS NISSAN SERVICE VISITS. NNA HAS DENIED "PRODUCT LIABILITY." MY SISTER AND I WERE FORTUNATE TO MAKE IT OUT OF A FLAMING, ROLLING FIREBALL. FIREFIGHTERS PINPOINTED EXPLOSION AND FIRE TO POWER STEERING ELECTRIC CONTROL. VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS AND INCIDENT IS YET TO BE INVESTIGATED, INSURANCE CURRENTLY IN BEGINNING PHASES. BE CAREFUL IN THE ROGUES PEOPLE!! *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROUGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER ENGAGING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MOVE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS THAT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS MERGED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHERE THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ENGAGE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED TO ITS NORMAL OPERATIONS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON SEVEN DIFFERENT TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,300 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,400.

I HAD BEEN DRIVING APPROXIMATELY AN HOUR IN 90 DEGREE WEATHER ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 65 MPH WHEN MY NISSAN ROGUE LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. WITH THE ACCELERATION PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND EVENTUALLY STOPPED ALTOGETHER, CAUSING ME TO ATTEMPT MANEUVERING AROUND CARS GOING OVER 70 MPH TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS ALMOST STRUCK TWICE. AFTER 20 MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND DRIVE AT 40MPH TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD TODAY IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED COSTING ME $1000. PREVIOUS MODELS OF THE ROGUE THROUGH 2010 HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OFFERED FOR THIS ISSUE THROUGH 120,000 BUT MINE IS A 2011 AND I WAS TOLD I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT MYSELF. I HAVE CONTACTED 1-800-NISSAN1 AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THIS IS INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING AND DANGEROUS. *TR

HALF WAY INTO PARKING SPOT WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PAD THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE AND SMASHED INTO A LIGHT POLE DENTING THE FRONT (PASSENGER SIDE) END AS WELL AS BOTH FRONT SIDES. HARD ENOUGH TO MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO OPEN BOTH FRONT DOORS. TOTAL TRAVEL LENGTH APPROXIMATE 5 -6 FEET. IF NEEDED I WILL SUBMIT PHOTOS OF DAMAGE & INJURY I HAD MY ENTIRE LOW ABDOMEN COMPLETELY BLACK AND BLUE, SWOLLEN AS WELL AS MY RIGHT KNEE & BREAST BRUISED. THE DAMAGE WAS DEEMED BY GEICO INSPECTORS AS A TOTAL LOSS. I CONTACTED NISSAN VERBAL AND WRITING INCLUDING PICTURES OF THE CAR AND MY INJURIES. PROVIDED ALL THE INFORMATION REQUESTED BY NISSAN REP. AND NEVER HEARD FROM NISSAN THAN AGAIN. NOT EVEN A SORRY!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY DECELERATED. THE VEHICLE ALSO FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER STATED THE ENGINE WAS CONSUMING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TRANSMISSION FLUID CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SHIFT INTO FAIL SAFE MODE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION DIP STICK METER AND REDUCED THE TRANSMISSION LEVEL. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

FROM STOP TO TRYING TO CROSS A INTERSECTION VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING. IF ANOTHER CAR WAS COMING A LOSS OF ACCELERATION CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINT FOR THE SAME ISSUE POSTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET. FROM 2008 TO 2013 MODELS. IT SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE AND NO RECALL YET. I HOPE THEY DO NOT WAIT UNTIL A DEATH OCCURS. *TR

FUEL GAUGE SHOWS ONLY 1/4 TANK AFTER FULL UP. EVENTUALLY SHOWS FULL AFTER ABOUT 50 MILES, THEN STAYS AT FULL FOR APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES BEFORE IT SHOWS ANY FUEL USED. *TR

THIS IS THE SITUATION THAT HAPPENED WITH MY VEHICAL TOO, THE BELOW STATEMENT IS ANOTHER PERSONS COMPLAINT AS WELL AS MINE. I HAVE A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE BUT MY TRANSMISSION WAS INSTALLED IN OCT 2010, I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH THE 2010 RECALL . THEY ARE GETTING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND I FEEL THAT THE 2011 SHOULD GET THE SAME EXTENDED WARRANTY SUMMARY: THE 2011 ROGUE IS THE CAR WE USE FOR LONGER TRIPS WHEN WE'RE NOT FLYING. ABOUT TWO HOURS INTO A LONG INTERSTATE TRIP IN MAY 2013 WE STARTED TO HEAR A HIGH PITCHED WHINE FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHENEVER WE WOULD ACCELERATE TO GO UPHILL OR PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. SHORTLY AFTER WE STARTED HEARING THAT NOISE THE TRANSMISSION WAS UNABLE TO "DOWNSHIFT" (TECHNICALLY CVTS DON'T DOWNSHIFT) AND WE LOST POWER. WE COULD STILL MAINTAIN A REASONABLE SPEED ON LEVEL TERRAIN, BUT WE WERE BARELY ABLE TO MAINTAIN SPEED GOING OVER SMALL HILLS. WE WOULD HAVE OUR FOOT PLANTED ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN, ACCELERATION WISE. ONCE WE'D STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES, THEN START THE CAR AND GET BACK TO DRIVING, EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE. BUT AFTER A WHILE OF EXTENDED DRIVING THE PROBLEM WOULD RETURN. THIS ISSUE HAS SHOWN UP A FEW TIME SINCE THEN BUT ALWAYS DURING EXTENDED DRIVING SESSIONS AND NEVER ON THE DAY-TO-DAY SHORT COMMUTES, WHICH HAS MADE IT FRUSTRATING TO TRACK. IN DOING A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH WE FOUND MANY OTHER ROGUE OWNERS DESCRIBING OUR EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS, AND EVEN SOMEONE THAT POSTED A YOUTUBE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD FROM OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AS THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,106. UPDATED 6/10/14*CN UPDATED 8/23/2017*CN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROGUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TURNING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 11565000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

THE TRANSMISSION STARTED CLICKING MID-MARCH 2014. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE IS A 2011 WITH 85,000 MILES - IT SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND IS CURRENTLY OUT OF WARRANTY. THE COST OF REPLACEMENT IS $3,000. THE PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS 2003-2010 WARRANTY'S WERE INCREASED TO 10 YEARS 120,000 MILES DUE TO ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT FIXED AND WARRANTY'S AGAIN SHOULD BE EXTENDED FOR OWNERS OF MODEL YEAR 2011 AND BEYOND. NISSAN SHOULD STAND BY THEIR VEHICLES AND REPAIR AND REPLACE WHEN ISSUES ARISE. *TR

HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR 35 MINUTES. EXITED THE OFF RAMP AT A RED LIGHT SO THE VEHICLE WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED THE ROGUE WOULD NOT GO. I HAD TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND START IT BACK UP. IT SEEMED TO RESET ITSELF. HAD A SIMILAR INCIDENT IN THE SUMMER OF 2013 WHEN IT WAS 90 DEGREES DROVE FOR 90 MILES TRIED TO PASS SOMEONE ON THE INTERSTATE AND COULD NOT GET IT TO GO OVER 50 MPH WHEN THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70. HAD TO PULL OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 65 AND 70 MPH, THE 2011 ROUGE WITHOUT WARNING JUST SHUT DOWN (LOST POWER) PULLED OVER AND SAT THERE FOR 10 MINUTES AND IT STARTED AND RAN FINE. THREE WEEKS LATER, IT HAPPENED WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT. IT SHUT DOWN (LOST POWER), PULLED OVER SAT AND THEN RESTARTED THE CAR. NO WARNING LIGHTS, NOT WARNING OF ANY KIND, ALL GAUGES WERE NORMAL. THIS COULD CAUSE ONE TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN DEATH. I HAVE SEEN WHERE OTHER NISSAN CARS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT, RECALLED FIXED, AND SOON BEFORE IT CAUSES INJURIES. 66,000 MILES IS WHEN IT STARTED HAPPENING. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR ANYWHERE DUE TO THE RISK OF INJURY I AM PUTTING MYSELF AND OTHERS IN. PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT AND DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT IS TO LATE FOR SOMEONE. *TR

WHEN BRAKES WAS APPLIED IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED MOMENTARILY AND BRAKES HAD TO BE DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AT WHICH POINT THE VEHICLE EASED INTO A STOP IN A VERY UNTIMELY AND UNSAFE MANNER. SOMETIMES WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKES HAVE TO BE APPLIED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, THE VEHICLE RESPONDS VERY SLOWLY AS IF THE BRAKES HAD NOT BEEN APPLIED. OTHER TIMES THE VEHICLE STOPS ABRUPTLY AS IF THE BRAKES HAD BEEN APPLIED AGGRESSIVELY. WHILE STOPPED UPWARD FOR ABOUT A MINUTE AT A SLIGHTLY INCLINED HILL AND BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE IN ORDER TO OBEY A RED TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE VEHICLE PROPELLED FORWARD AS IF THE BRAKES WAS NOT CURRENTLY APPLIED. THE BRAKES HAD TO BE RE-APPLIED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CURRY NISSAN DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE TO REPORT THE PROBLEM AND SET AN APPOINTMENT FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. ALSO, I INFORMED THE ATTENDANT AT THE DEALER THAT THERE ARE A FEW COMPLAINTS FILED ONLINE THAT WERE ADDRESSING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT I EXPERIENCED WITH THE BRAKES OF THE NISSAN ROGUE 2011. THE ATTENDANT RESPONSE WAS THAT NO ONE HAD BROUGHT SUCH PROBLEM TO THEIR ATTENTION. BELOW ARE SOME LINKS TO THE PREVIOUSLY FILED COMPLAINTS.

THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGED AND THE CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AND BEGAN OCCURRING APPROXIMATELY 18 MONTHS AGO. IT HAPPENED ALMOST DAILY DURING WARMER WEATHER.

WE WERE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. CAR BEGAN BUCKING, HAD A HIGH PITCHED WHINING AND LOST ALL POWER IN ACCELERATION, TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. WE IMMEDIATELY DROPPED TO 20 MPH. WE WERE ALMOST REAR-ENDED IN TRAFFIC. HAD TO MOVE TO SHOULDER AND HAVE CAR TOWED. DEALERSHIP GAVE US 800 NUMBER TO CALL NISSAN SINCE THE 2008-2010 MODELS HAVE HAD THE SAME TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. NISSAN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THOSE BUT REFUSED TO EXTEND WARRANTY ON 2011 WHICH HAS THE SAME TRANSMISSION. THE CAR GAVE NO WARNING AT ALL. THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. NISSAN NEEDS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. JUST READ ON EDMUNDS.COM FORUM THAT MANY NISSAN ROGUE OWNERS ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY WARNING. *TR

WHILE GOING BETWEEN 75-80 MPH FOR BETWEEN 100-125 MILES, THE CAR WOULD NOT HARDLY GO, HAD TO SLOW DOWN AND GET OFF THE INTERSTATE, CUT THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, AND THEN IT SEEMED OKAY, THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE TRAVELING FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGHER SPEEDS, SOMETHING REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS, IT STARTED AT 30000 MILES, VERY DANGEROUS! *TR

THE 2011 ROGUE IS THE CAR WE USE FOR LONGER TRIPS WHEN WE'RE NOT FLYING. ABOUT TWO HOURS INTO A LONG INTERSTATE TRIP IN MAY 2013 WE STARTED TO HEAR A HIGH PITCHED WHINE FROM THE TRANSMISSION WHENEVER WE WOULD ACCELERATE TO GO UPHILL OR PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. SHORTLY AFTER WE STARTED HEARING THAT NOISE THE TRANSMISSION WAS UNABLE TO "DOWNSHIFT" (TECHNICALLY CVTS DON'T DOWNSHIFT) AND WE LOST POWER. WE COULD STILL MAINTAIN A REASONABLE SPEED ON LEVEL TERRAIN, BUT WE WERE BARELY ABLE TO MAINTAIN SPEED GOING OVER SMALL HILLS. WE WOULD HAVE OUR FOOT PLANTED ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN, ACCELERATION WISE. ONCE WE'D STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES, THEN START THE CAR AND GET BACK TO DRIVING, EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE. BUT AFTER A WHILE OF EXTENDED DRIVING THE PROBLEM WOULD RETURN. THIS ISSUE HAS SHOWN UP A FEW TIME SINCE THEN BUT ALWAYS DURING EXTENDED DRIVING SESSIONS AND NEVER ON THE DAY-TO-DAY SHORT COMMUTES, WHICH HAS MADE IT FRUSTRATING TO TRACK. IN DOING A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH WE FOUND MANY OTHER ROGUE OWNERS DESCRIBING OUR EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS, AND EVEN SOMEONE THAT POSTED A YOUTUBE VIDEO DURING THEIR PROBLEM.

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE THE CAR WILL LOSE POWER TO THE POINT IT ALMOST FILLS AS IF IT WILL SHUT OFF. USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN STARTING OFF ON A GRADE OR SLOWING FOR A TURN THEN PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR ALSO SHUDDERS AND FEELS LIKE IT CHUGGING OR WOBBLING ALONG, AS IF THE ROAD IT LUMPY. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THE ISSUE, BUT NO RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETINS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. WHEN IT ALMOST COMPLETELY LOSES POWER ITS VERY SCARY, AS IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE TRYING TO MERGE ONTO THE INTERSTATE. I HAVE A YOUNG CHILD AND IT HAS PUT US BOTH IN DANGER MORE THAN ONCE SINCE BUYING THE CAR USED IN JULY 2013. *TR

THE BACK BRAKE LIGHTS FAIL TO COME ON. WHEN I HAD THEM CHECKED, THE AUTO MECHANIC SAID THE BULB WAS BURNT. AFTER CHANGING THE BULBS, THE BRAKE LIGHTS STILL DID NOT COME ON. WE CHECKED THE FUSES AND THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE BRAKE LIGHTS STILL FAIL COME ON WHEN THE BRAKES ARE PRESSED. *JS

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR SUDDENLY LOSES POWER, AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE. IF I AM GOING UP A HILL OR HUMP, THE CAR WILL STALL. AT TIMES, HAVE TO FIND AN ALTERNATE ROUTE WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE THE CAR WILL FAIL TO ACCELERATE. I AM AFRAID TO TRAVEL ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS WHERE THERE ARE HILL OR ELEVATED AREAS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY NOT ACCELERATE. I MUST DRIVE SOMETIMES WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS BECAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHTS OFTEN FAIL TO COME ON. *JS

FOR A FEW DAYS I HAD NOTICED A SHUTTER IN MY CAR AS IT ACCELERATED. REALLY SINCE I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR IT HAD VIBRATION PROBLEMS. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND GOT ON A RAMP TO MERGE ONTO ANOTHER FREEWAY. WHEN I SLOWED TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC, I COULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE RPM GAUGE WENT UP TO AROUND 4,000 BUT THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 15 - 20 MPH. BECAUSE OF THIS, I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A TRUCK THAT WAS IN THE DISTANCE OF THE STRIGHT LANE THAT I MERGED INTO. I PULLED IN FRONT OF HIM BUT COULD NOT GO ANYWHERE AND HE WAS FORCED TO MAKE A QUICK SWERVE INTO ANOTHER LANE TO AVOID ME. THE INTERNET IS FULL OF VIDEOS AND COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER NISSAN ROGUE OWNERS THAT ARE HAVIN THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. MY CAR DOES HAVE A LOT OF MILEAGE AS I TRAVEL ABOUT 1,200 MILES PER WEEK FOR MY JOB AS A TERRITORY MANAGER. HOWEVER, THAT ONLY MEANS THAT ALL THIS MILEAGE IS HIGHWAY MILES AND HAS NOT PUT MUCH PRESSURE ON THE TRANSMISSION. THE OTHER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AT ANYWHERE FROM 6,000 TO 60,000 MILES. NISSAN HAS DOUBLED THEIR WARRANTIES ON THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS THAT THEY HAVE EXPERIENCED. HOWEVER, BY THE TIME I GOT MINE TO THE DEALERSHIP THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED THAT THE WARRANTY ON THE TRANSMISSION HAD BEEN EXTENDED BY NISSAN OR I WOULD HAVE NOTICED THAT I HAD A PROBLEM. NOW THEY HAVE CHANGED PARTS IN THE NEW TRANSMISSIONS BUT WILL NOT ADMIT TO THEIR PR

HELLO: MY NAME IS [XXX] I AM THE PROUD OWNER OF A 2011 ROGUE WITH APPROXIMATELY 21,000 MILES. BUT I HAVE A VERY SERIOUS COMPLAINT SINCE I HAVE THE OWNED THE VEHICLE MY FIANCE HAS HAD TO TAKE OFF TO BRING THE CAR IN FOR THE TPMS SENSOR UNIT NEARLY EVERY OTHER MONTH SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS COST THE FACTORY ON OR ABOUT $200.00 PER VISIT. WHEN THE WARRANTY ELAPSE IS NISSAN SAYING THIS WILL BE ON ME? IS THERE A CALL BACK ON THIS MALFUNCTION? IS THERE A RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OR HAS THE PROBLEM BEEN ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS FATALLY INJURED? THE DEALER IS SAYING THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT WITHOUT AN RESOLUTION., JUST BRING IT IN. BUT THEY ARE NORMALLY REPLACING THE SENSOR UNIT EACH TIME. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW, I HAVE 2 YEARS WITH THE CAR AND MY BATTERY IS BROKEN. *TR

2011 ROGUE, 40,000 MILES 2 DAYS AGO, PROBLEMS STARTED WITH ACCELERATION. SPECIFICALLY FROM A STOPPED POSITION. AND WHEN ON A HILL, OR AT A FREEWAY RAMP IT WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL, EVEN WHEN PUSHING DRIVING PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR.( RPM DOES NOT GO UP) IF I ABLE PASSING THE 15 MILES SPEED EVERYTHING IS RELEASE AND THE CAR DRIVE NORMAL. I LEAVE IN AN UPHILL AND I HAD TO PLAN MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP ON SAT, AFTER VISITING THE DEALER, EVERYTHING WAS TEMPORARILY FIX, A DAY AFTER HERE WE GO AGAIN. I'M PLANNING TO CALL THE DEALER NOW. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN ROUGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS WHERE IT WAS STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

WHILE TRAVELING ON A TOLL ROAD, SPEED LIMIT 80, MY CAR LOST POWER AFTER TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MINUTES. PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR RESULTED IN THE CAR STILL LOOSING POWER. IT DID NOT MATTER HOW MUCH YOU PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR STILL SLOWED DOWN. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON JULY 17, 2013. TRAVELING THE SAME ROAD. IN ADDITION, WHEN I GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND CAME TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR DID NOT GO AT FIRST. THEN THE CAR SLOWLY MOVED FORWARD. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE FOUND MANY WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. I ALSO SPOKE WITH AN EMPLOYEE AT AN OIL CHANGING BUSINESS WHO SAID HE HAD A CUSTOMER LAST WEEK WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HER NISSAN. IT WAS REPORTED THAT NISSAN TOLD HER THE SENSOR WAS DOING ITS JOB AND SHE WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER AFTER DRIVING FOR AN HOUR, SHUT OFF HER CAR, WAIT 10 MINUTES, THEN PROCEED. THAT WOULD CLEAR THE SENSOR AND THE CAR WOULD DRIVE NORMAL AGAIN. REALLY! *TR
