Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2008-2013 Nissan Rogue vehicles manufactured March 7, 2007, to November 26, 2013, and 2014 Nissan Rogue Select vehicles manufactured September 23, 2013, to July 2, 2014. The affected vehicles may experience an electrical short in the harness connector due to a mixture of snow/water and salt seeping through the carpet on the driver side floor near the harness connector.
An electrical short can cause a vehicle fire.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the kick panel wiring harness connector and will if necessary install a new harness connector and waterproof seal, free of charge. The recall began on February 26, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

CVT TRANSMISSION. ONE OWNER COMEPLETES ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR MAKES A WHINING NOISE, LOSES POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS CAUSED SEMIS TO GRID LOCK I MOVED OFF ROAD TO AVOID GETTING HIT AND CAUSING A MULTI CAR PILE UP. I LOOK UP AND SEE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME NATURE BY THE 100'S AND SADLY NISSAN ISN'T WILLING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WITH THE CVT ON LATER MODELS BUT EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON PREVIOUS MODELS WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION.

WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE STARTED LOOSING POWER AT A FAST RATE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO COAST OFF THE INTERSTATE ONTO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. THE VEHICLE IS STILL IDLING BUT WILL NOT GO FORWARD. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MINUTES THE VEHICLE WILL GO AGAIN. BUT AGAIN AFTER A FEW MILES OF DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT A SPEED OF 65 TO 70 MPH THE VEHICLE AGAIN STARTS LOOSING POWER CAUSING US AGAIN TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE. WHEN WE RETURN HOME I DID SOME DIGGING INTO THE HISTORY OF THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION AND FIND MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AFTER HAVING NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOK INTO IT THEY FIND THE TRANSMISSION IS OVERHEATING CAUSING IT TO SHUT DOWN. OUR WARRANTY WILL COVER THE COST OF REPAIR BUT NISSAN REQUIRES AN COOLER TO BE PLACED ON THE TRANSMISSION BEFORE IT CAN BE COMPLETELY REPAIRED DUE TO THIS ISSUE OCCURRING IN THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION BUT THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY OUT OF POCKET APPROXIMATELY $1000.00 FOR THIS COOLER TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE COOLER IS AN ADDITION TO THE DRIVE TRAIN. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE NISSAN HAS WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION, WE WERE VERY LUCKY BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC TO GET OFF THE INTERSTATE GOING FROM A HIGH RATE OF SPEED TO COMPLETELY LOOSING POWER WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

THE NISSAN ROGUE 2013 HAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES ON IT, AND AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH HAVE FOUND MY VEHICLE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS A FAULTY CVT INSTALLED. NISSAN IS FULLY AWARE OF THE HAZARD THEY HAVE BEEN SELLING SINCE 2008. THEIR VEHICLES ENTER "SAFE MODE" AFTER DRIVING LONGER THAN AN HOUR DUE TO TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERHEATING, AS A RESULT OF NOT HAVING A COOLER/FAN. THIS SAFE MODE CAUSES YOUR VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER IMMEDIATELY AND IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON INTERSTATE OR EVEN HIGHLY TRAFFICKED AREAS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY REFUSE TO CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY. THIS MECHANICAL ISSUE CANNOT BE FOUND BY NISSAN CAR REPAIRSMEN BECAUSE IT IS FACTORY INSTALLED THAT WAY. PLEASE GET RECALL. I HAVE A 4 MONTH OLD BABY WHO'S LIFE IS AT STAKE

THE VEHICLE IDLES AND VIBRATES CONSTANTLY WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS USED. MY WHEEL MAY NOT VIBRATE 10 MINUTES OUT OF A HALF HOUR DRIVE. IT EITHER BARELY WILL TAKE OFF FROM START OR IT COMPLETELY FLOORS IT AND EXCELS. FEELS LIKE A DIESEL RUGGED VEHICLE AND NOT A SMOOTH NORMAL RIDE LIKE ANY CAR OR SUV SHOULD RIDE. I COMPLAINED THE DAY IT WAS PURCHASED AND HAVE HATED IT EVER SINCE.
Power train, Aug 29, 2017
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN WHINIG LOUDLY. SUDDENLY, THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER. EVEN THOUGH I WAS GIVING IT GAS, IT WAS ONLY REVING THE ENGINE HIGHER. THE AUTOMOBILE BEHIND ME ALMOST SLAMMED INTO ME AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AS I DECELERATED BECAUSE OF THE TRANMISSION FAILURE.

AT AROUND 56,000 MILES THE ENGINE WOULD REV ON ITS OWN WHEN ID GO UP HILL THEN NO PROBLEMS UNTIL 6 MTHS AGO WHERE @ 66,000 MILES THE CAR WOULD DESPERATE ON ITS OWN FROM 70MPH TO 55 THEN 25 ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HAZARDS ON. I WOULD THEN PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD TAKE 10 SECONDS TO GET TO 50MPH. THE CAR HAS NO POWER IT SEEMS LIKE.
Vehicle speed control, Aug 23, 2017
WHEN I WAS DRIVING ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I HAD THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT WOULD NOT GO PAST 40 MPH THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. I WAS ON INTERSTATE 10 RETURNING HOME FROM HOUSTON TX ON AUGUST 17, 2017. I HAD NO PROBLEMS ON THE WAY TO HOUSTON. I HAD BEEN DOING THE SPEED LIMIT WHICH WAS BETWEEN 65 AND 75 WITHOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL ON. I HAVE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND I HAVE FOUND OUT IT IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN'S ROUGES AND HAS BEEN FOR YEARS AND THAT IT IS KNOWN ABOUT WHEN YOU GO TO THE DEALERSHIPS ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

I ALMOST DIED THIS WEEKEND IN MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE!!! GOING SPEED LIMIT OF 75 MPH UPHILL FROM PHOENIX TO PRESCOTT ON I117 FREEWAY. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND AT AN ELEVATION OF ABOUT 3,500 FEET OUTSIDE OF A TOWN CALLED "BUMBLE BEE" MY NISSAN ROGUE WITHOUT WARNING OR ANY INDICATOR LIGHTS COMING ON, BEGINS TO GRADUALLY DECELERATE DOWN TO JUST ABOVE 40 MPH. TWO LANE HIGHWAY WITH NO SHOULDERS ON EITHER SIDE...VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW I AM DOWN TO GOING A MERE 30-40 MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHERE SPEED LIMIT IS 75 MILES PER HOUR!!! ROGUE GRADUALLY SLOWS DOWN EVEN THOUGH I HAVE MY FOOT DEPRESSED FULLY ON THE GAS, PUSHING WITH ALL MY WEIGHT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR BOARD. SEMI TRUCK IS COMING UP VERY QUICKLY BEHIND ME AND DIDN'T ANTICIPATE ME SLOWING DOWN ESPECIALLY SINCE MY BRAKE WAS NOT DEPRESSED AND ALMOST REAR ENDED ME. SEMI TRUCK LITERALLY HAD TO GEAR DOWN AND SWITCH LANES SINCE HE COULD NOT SLOW DOWN IN TIME TO AVOID HITTING ME. SCARED THE LIFE OUT OF ME BUT THERE WAS NO WHERE I COULD GO! LITERALLY HAD TO PUT ON HAZARDS AND CONTINUE AT 40 MPH OR SO FOR NEXT 20 MILES UNTIL I COULD EXIT ONTO HIGHWAY 89, PULL OVER AND STOP. THIS VEHICLE IS A DEATH TRAP AND SOMEONE WILL BE FATALLY INJURED JUST AS I ALMOST WAS THIS PAST WEEKEND. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY 2013 NISSAN ROGUE AND AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY CHILDREN AROUND IN IT. TOOK TO NISSAN DEALER TODAY AND APPARENTLY NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUES. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION OIL HEATING UP AND ROGUE GOING INTO A "FAIL SAFE" MODE AND DECELERATING. CVT NEEDS TO BE ADDED OR REPLACED! WHY IS THIS VEHICLE NOT BEING RECALLED!? ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE OR FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT TO ENSUE BEFORE DOING WHAT IS MORALLY AND ETHICALLY RIGHT!? SHAME ON YOU NISSAN FOR LETTING CORPORATE GREED AND PROFITS MEAN MORE TO YOU THAN SAFETY!

WHEN I START MY CAR IT MAKES A RATTLING SOUND AS IF SOMETHING IS HITTING THE GROUND. AFTER I DRIVE FOR ALMOST 45 MINS ON HIGHWAY MY CAR SPEED WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN COME DOWN FROM 70 MPH TO 20 MPH AND THEN IT WONT ACCELERATE EVEN. I WAS ABOUT TO BE HIT BY A TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY, BUT SOMEHOW I MANAGED TO MOVE THE CAR IN THE BUFFER. I STOOD THERE FOR 20 - 30 MINS AND DROVE AGAIN, IT WAS SOMEHOW MOVING. ALSO IF I AM UPHILL THE CAR WONT MOVE IT WILL TEND TO GO BACK. WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE THE RPM WAS REACHING TILL 4 OR MORE, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. ANOTHER INCIDENT HAPPENED WAS I WAS WAITING AT A RED SIGNAL. I WAS THE FIRST ONE IN THE LINE, AS THE SIGNAL BECAME GREEN, I REMOVED MY LEGS FROM BRAKE, THE CAR WONT MOVE AT ALL. EVEN TRIED TO ACCELERATE IT SOMEHOW WAS ABLE TO REACH ONLY TILL THE CENTER OF THE SIGNAL WHEN THE SIGNAL CHANGED TO RED. I WAS IN A PANIC SITUATION, I SOMEHOW DRAGGED IT TO THE OTHER SIDE. ALL THIS HAPPENED ONLY WITHIN 2 WEEKS I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A NISSAN DEALER (IT WAS AN USED CAR). I TOOK IT TO THE DELAER FOR INSPECTION, THEY CHECKED MY CAR AND GAVE ME ERROR CODE P0744 (TORQUE CONVERTER) AND SAID IT CAN BE RESOLVED ONLY BY CHANGING THE COMPLETE TRANSMISSION AND WOULD COST AROUND 5400 DOLLARS. WHEN I ASKED WHY THEY DIDN'T CHECK DURING SAFETY CHECK IN FIRST PLACE BEFORE SELLING THE CAR, THEY GAVE ME AN ANSWER LIKE THEY CANNOT FIND ISSUES IN CAR UNTIL ITS DRIVEN ON ROAD. NOT SURE WHAT KIND OF SAFETY CHECKS THE DEALERS PERFORM THEN. I COULD HAVE MET WITH AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS. WHEN I ASKED THEM FOR FIXING THIS THEY SAID I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A WARRANTY AND ITS MY FAULT I DIDN'T BUY A WARRANTY, AND THEY GAVE ME A CAR AS-IS. I TOLD THEM IT WAS NOT THE QUESTION ABOUT GIVING ME A CAR AS-IS, I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF SECURITY TESTING THEY DO BEFORE GIVING A CAR, WHEN THEY GAVE AS IS WHY THEY DIDN'T MENTION ABOUT SUCH ISSUES. PLEASE HELP

2013 NISSAN ROGUE...AFTER ABOUT 40 MINS OF CONSISTENT HIGHWAY DRIVING THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION POWER AND THE RPM'S JUMP INTO 5000+. THE ONLY WAY TO "CORRECT" THE ISSUE IS TO PULL THE CAR OVER, TURN IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. EXTREMELY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS! I TOOK THE CAR TO EXECUTIVE NISSAN IN CT AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS AN INTERNAL FAILURE IN THE CVT TRANSMISSION. EXECUTIVE SAID THE ISSUE CAN'T BE FIXED DUE TO THE PHYSICAL SET UP OF THE TRANSMISSION AND THE ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. OBVIOUSLY THE CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD AND TO HAVE TO REPLACE AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AFTER THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND LESS THAN 100,000 MILES IS UTTERLY RIDICULOUS. THAT BEING SAID, THE MAJOR CONCERN IS THE SAFETY ISSUE IT CAUSES TO NOT ONLY MY FAMILY BUT TO THE OTHER FAMILIES ON THE ROAD AS WELL. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON-LINE IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT NISSAN HAS ISSUES WITH IT'S CVT TRANSMISSIONS, SPECIFICALLY THE ROGUE AND ALTIMA. AT ONE POINT THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS AND/OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES ISSUED BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. I'M NOT REALLY SURE HOW NISSAN CAN CONTINUE TO PUT VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THEY DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THE ISSUE ONCE ITS REPORTED TO THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIVISION. I WAS SIMPLY DISMISSED AND TOLD "THIS DECISION IS FINAL". THE REASON GIVEN TO ME WAS SIMPLY BECAUSE I WAS OVER THE FACTORY WARRANTY OF 60,000 MILES. IMAGINE IN THIS DAY AND AGE OF TECHNOLOGY THAT A MAJOR VEHICLE COMPONENT LIKE A TRANSMISSION IS ONLY "GUARANTEED" FOR 60,000 MILES. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY!!

TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER IS NEEDED TO PREVENT THE TRANSMISSION CVT OIL TO STAY COOL SO IT DOES NOT GO INTO FAIL SAFE MODE HERE IN THE TEXAS HEAT. AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS OF DRIVING IN 90 PLUS WEATHER THE VEHICLE SHUTS POWER. IT IS UNFORTUNATE TIMING WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND YOU HAVE NO POWER AND YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER WITHOUT GETTING HIT TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND SHUT IT DOWN TO RESET THE SAFE MODE.

MY CAR MAKES A LOUD RATTLING NOISE WHEN I ACCELERATE, IT DOES NOT MATTER UP HILL DOWN HILL EVERY TIME I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS YOU CAN HEAR ME COMING DOWN THE ST, IF I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS IT STOPS BUT ITS BEEN DOING IT SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR 3 YEARS AGO BUT NOW ITS MUCH WORSE AND THE FACT THAT THE DEALER WANTS 500 JUST TO LOOK AT IT IS KILLING MY POCKETS. THEN I SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP.

THERE IS AM ACCELERATION ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. WHEN TRAVELING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY THE RPMS WILL GO UP TO 4000 PR HIGHER AND LOSE ACCELERATION. I WENT FROM 70 MPH TO LESS THAN 30 MPH WITHIN SECONDS ON A HILL. ONCE I GOT TO THE TOP OF THE HILL TO WHERE I COULD SAFELY PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY I TURNED THE CAR OFF. I HAD TO LEAVE IT OFF FOR AT LEAST 10 MINS BEFORE I GOT THE ACCELERATION POWER BACK. IF I TIRED BEFORE THAT IT WOULDNT ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I WAS TOLD IT IS THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND IT ONLY HAS 76000ISH MILES ON IT. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO ME NOT ONCE, TWICE, THREE TIMES BUT FIVE TIMES NOW ON THE HIGHWAY SINCE REACHING 60000+ MILES ON THE CAR!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND ADDRESSED. I HAVE 3 KIDS AND IF I GET INTO A CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS I WILL BE SUING NISSAN FOR THIS FAULTY ISSUE!!!!

AUGUST 2ND 2016 I BOUGHT MY CAR FROM FARRIS MOTTOR IN JEFFERSON CITY TN IN OCT/NOV 2016 TO DELIVER MAIL IN. THE CONVERSION KIT PUT INTO MY CAR DID NOT MODIFY THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION IN ANY WAY THEREFORE MY WARRANTY WAS NOT VOIDED. THE CAR RAN WELL FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS THEN ONE DAY ON ROUTE IN A LEVEL GROUND NEIGHBORHOOD I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET SERVICING THE MAILBOXES, I STOPPED AT ONE AND WHEN I WENT TO SPEED BACK UP MY CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. I HAD THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WOULD BARELY MOVE. THE RPM'S DIDN'T EVEN REV UP, IT WAS JUST SILENCE, THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS MY CAR WOULD PICK UP AND MOVE. THIS WENT ON FOR THE REST OF THE DAY AND EVERYDAY AFTER THAT. IT IS WORSE WHEN GOING UP HILL, INSTEAD OF IT PICKING UP AND MOVING AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT DOESN'T MOVE AND INSTEAD STARTS TO ROLL BACKWARDS. ALL THIS ALSO HAPPENS IN REVERSE AND STILL NO RPM'S. SO I TOOK IT TO FARRIS ABOUT THREE TIMES AND GOT NOTHING OUT OF THEM, AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY SAID ACCORDING TO MY WARRANTY ANY WORK TO THE VEHICLE OR EVEN DOING DIAGNOSTICS WOULD HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY FARRIS WHICH THEY DID NOT. SO I WENT BACK TO FARRIS AGAIN AND HAD A TECH RIDE WITH ME SO I COULD REPLICATE WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE OBSERVED AND AGREED WITH WHAT WAS HAPPENING BUT SAID HE DIDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION BUT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. AND HE ALSO SEEMED TO BLAME MY PROFESSION FOR THE WAY THE CAR IS ACTING DUE TO THE WAY I DRIVE BUT IF THAT WERE TRUE THEN EVERYONE AT THE POST OFFICE WOULD BE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR VEHICLES, SORRY BUT THAT'S NOT THE CASE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE MY CAR IS MY MAIN PRIORITY TO TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY. HERE IS A LINK OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE.

THE 2013 NISSAN ROGUE WAS BUILT WITHOUT HAVING A COOLANT VALVE ON THE TRANSMISSION. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE RPM ON MY CAR WITH BEGIN GOING VERY HIGH AND THE SPEEDOMETER WILL NEVER MOVE ALL THE WHILE I AM PRESSING THE GAS DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR IS GOING ALMOST ONLY 20 OR 30 MILES PER HOUR AT THIS POINT. I AM NOT GOING UP A HILL OR GOING VERY FAST I USUALLY ONLY TRAVEL ABOUT 60 OR 65 MPH. IT MAKES A WHINING SOUND AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I DID TAKE THIS ISSUE UP WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID WHAT IS HAPPENING IS SINCE THERE IS NO VALVE TO KEEP THE TRANSMISSION COOL THEN IT OVERHEATS AND LOOSING ACCELERATION IS A KIND OF WAY OF "SELF-DIAGNOSING" AND ATTEMPTING TO COOL DOWN-DUE TO THERE NOT BEING A VALVE ON THE CAR DURING MANUFACTURING. I DO INDEED HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 100,000 MILES UP TO 5 YEARS, BUT THEY SAID THEY CAN NOT PAY FOR THE PART BECAUSE IT WAS NOT ON THE CAR WHEN IT WAS MADE. THEY SAID THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR PARTS TO BE PUT ON THE CAR. ON NOVEMBER 25, 2015 NISSAN PUT OUT A SERVICE BULLETIN ON HOW TO PUT THE PART ON AND ARE WELL AWARE THAT ROGUES FROM 2008-2013 DO NOT HAVE THIS VALVE. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE THAT MY CAR COULD LOSE ACCELERATION AT ANY POINT-AND IT HAS ON THE INTERSTATE, HIGHWAY, AND MANY OTHER PLACES. NISSAN STATES THAT THE ROGUE HAD EVERYTHING ON IT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO, BUT THEY CAN'T TELL ME HOW THEY CAN PUT A BULLETIN OUT ON HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THEY KNOW THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED, BUT THEN WON'T PAY FOR THE ISSUE. I REALLY FEEL THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF RECALL ON A CAR THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE PROPER VALVE ON IT TO KEEP IT FROM OVERHEATING. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE TO ME, A SINGLE MOTHER WHO WORKS AND TRAVELS WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN.

I HAVE A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE THAT THE TRANSMISSION JUST DIED ON ME. THE CAR HAS 103 K MILES AND DIED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE HIGHWAY. I WAS DOING 70 MPH AND THE CAR SPEED DROPPED TO LESS THAN 5 MPH. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE PEDAL FOR A GOOD MINUTE BUT THE CAR WON'T GO OVER 5 MPH. I FINALLY MANAGED TO SAFELY GET OUT OF THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR JUST DIED ON THE SIDE OF ROAD. TOWED THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPAIRED. THEY KNOW THAT OLDER MODELS WERE COVERED UNDER A NISSAN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION,BUT MY 2013 ROGUE WAS NOT COVERED AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. THE SPEED ON THIS CAR SHOULD NOT JUST DROP FROM 70 MPH TO 5 MPH IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, IT IS DANGEROUS. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT WON'T ADMIT IT. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE DRIVING THIS CARS AND NOT KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THEY ARE. NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE OVER THIS.

LOSS OF ACCELERATION ON INTERSTATE AND INNER CITY DRIVING. COMPLETE LOSS OF SPEED CONTROL, PRESSING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR HAS NO EFFECT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN THIS OCCURS. HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 40,000 MILES. I FEAR FOR THE LIVES OF MY PASSENGERS, ESPECIALLY CHILDREN AND WILL NO LONGER USE THIS VEHICLE WITH THEM INSIDE.
