Passenger airbag sensor blinks due to a malfunction. Cost to fix is $3K due to having to replace the passenger seat where the sensor is, which is half the value of the vehicle. This has been blinking for the past year and is extremely distracting and dangerous while driving. Not sure if this means that the passenger airbag will not deploy, which is *extremely* dangerous. Additionally, when traveling, the vehicle often loses acceleration, even with the gas pedal all the way down. It becomes extremely difficult and dangerous to stop or turn. The steering wheel loses power steering, and the brakes do not engage quickly at all.
When driving uphill the damaged torque converter caused the transmission to badly overheat, only allowing the car to go 40 mph. The torque coverter transmission issues caused the vehicle to become a hazard on the road because of the slow speed.
The vehicle will not go over 40 miles per hour makes a noise check engine light came up took it to the shop he said problem with transmission (torque converter clutch solenoid.. this issue happens when I was driving on the highway with the speed of 70M/H then the car started making the noise and RPM went up to 4 and it wont go over 40.

As I was driving the vehicle (2011 Nissan Rogue) cut off as I was slowing down. The vehicle began jerking as I was driving. All the lights on the dashboard came on and the vehicle shut off at a stop light. During another incident the vehicle stalled while going down a rode with a small hill. Then stalled on the highway off ramp. Luckily, we had a shoulder area to pull off. After sitting in the vehicle an waiting for 10 - 15 minutes the vehicles started and began driving fine. We later took the car to our local mechanic and her changed all the belts, axle rods, ball joints as wells as an oil change. The car rod fine for 3 months then bam! once again the same issues occurred. Our mechanic suggested researching information about the transmission because he felt the car transmission should not be the problem but from all the problems we were telling him, him thinks it is the transmission. We have read several current and former Nissan Rogue owner complaints and realized the problem was bigger than minor wear and tear. I would appreciate if the NHTSA will take this matter seriously and have Nissan take responsibility for the faulty work it is doing with vehicles put the lives of millions at risk daily!!!!
Car won't go over 40 without transmission problems. Blowing codes for the transmission that Nissan knows is an on going problem with their cvt transmission. Multiple people with the same problem. They refuse to recall the transmission, acknowledge they are the problem.
Automatic cvt transmission has been slipping and unable to shift to 3rd and 4th gear. I have to place it into "N" when moving then shift to "D" then it would move but still slips when driving only in 20 to 30 miles per hour.
Car started stutter at acceleration and gear changes. At low speed as I was accelerating through an intersection, suddenly there was no power at all after a burning smell. Diagnostics show the transmission has failed at 89000 miles. Reminiscent of the cvt transmission failures in other years that have been recalled.
Car started making slight whirring noise when accelerating. Took it in to be looked at and they couldn't find an issue. Went another week and the noise got worse and starting skipping and losing power when I tried to accelerate after it's been sitting for a few hours, mostly just in first gear. Almost got in an accident pulling into traffic and lost complete power for a few seconds, was lucky enough to get into a turn lane before I got hit by oncoming traffic. Took it to another mechanic and determined it was transmission and needs to be replaced. They're telling me my car could turn into a giant paperweight at any moment.
The car has 88500 mikes, it starts to shake when I acelarate the car, going out of control, or losing the power without any warning light, almost causing a crash, hit in the back by another car
Driving down the high way the car 2011 Nissan Rogue AWD loses power gave it acceleration gas nothing happened finally pulled over to the shoulder and got it home, started the car up hesitating to rev up shifted in gear no movement all I could here was a sound of a gear rubbing could be inside the transmission and now I got it towed again to the mechanic to find out what could be next just lucky no other car came and hit my car which could have been another disaster

The transmission (cvt) is bad in this year of car they (nissian) needs T fix this and make it right to the customers there have been several complaints filed on this and they still chose not to fix the issue. They know its a problem
2011 Nissan rougue cvt failed at 88,000 miles when my son was driving from wichita to dallas. On the highway outside of dallas, at 70 mph, the rpms shot up and the car lost power without any warning. Limped to an off ramp and local service station.the cvt had failed. It was replaced by a local shop and Nissan says that 2011 models are not covered by the extended 120K mile warranty.
This vehicle is very dangerous to operate on warmer days. The transmission seems to overheat very easily causing the vehicle to go into a fail-safe "limp mode". this is very dangerous as it occurs on the highway, on hills, mountain roads, and with my children in the car. It has placed me in dangerous safety situations and the dealership and manufacturer acknowledge the issue exists but take no further action in correcting the dangerous flaw.
Vehicle only 9 years old and transmission went out with no warning or any warning lights. Was exiting off the freeway, went to accelerate and it acted as if it was getting no gas. I floored the gas and it took off, then started making a jerking motion untill I pulled over.
The contact owns a 2011 Nissan Rogue. While driving highway speeds, the vehicle decelerated on its own. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and the vehicle shut off. The contact attempted to restart the vehicle, but it would not go forward or in reverse. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the continuously variable transmission failed. The vehicle was currently at the independent mechanic awaiting repairs. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The failure mileage was 100,000.
2011 Nissan Rogue transmission- I was picking my dad up to go to hospital where my sister was having a heart cath, as I put it in reverse it started jumping, my dad says what is that it feels like your transmission. We go through mcdonald's drive thur and it starts jumping. When leaving work it starts jumping losing power so I took it the next day to East tn Nissan they said it was my transmission. I find it hard to believe that only the 2011 Rogue is the only one that doesn't have the extended warranty to 120,000 miles.
When making turns car loses power and at times stops completely. Electrical issues include navigation system and interior/ dashboard lights not coming on or popping on randomly. Moon roof will not open/close unless I keep pushing the button 10 or more times.
