This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
E car stops accelerating if any of these conditions happen: - uphill for over 3 miles - after 45-70 miles - high temperatures (85 or above) - driving more than 1 hour drivers must pull over and let transmission cool before proceeding, than happens again over and over.
In the last 30 days I have made the exact same 5 hour round trip drive three times. On two of these trips, I experienced sudden loss of acceleration after approximately 3-1/2 hours of driving (both instances started within 5 miles of the other). Though both occurred without any sign of a mechanical problem and continued until car had been stopped and shut off for 30 minutes or more, today's event nearly caused loss of life! when trying to merge onto I-95 from I-295 in jacksonville, Florida during rush hour traffic I suddenly could not only accelerate to get on 95 and move over 2 lanes to clear the exit only airport lane but continued to slow down in massive high speed traffic! during this time the gas pedal was fully depressed without result other than RPM change to almost 3. no codes were detected either time. This car was purchased new, has been well taken care of and regularly serviced. It has 75,214 miles on it. The only difference in the 3 trips I made was stopping for about 45 minutes to eat before driving back on trip #2 and had no problems at all with acceleration.
Transmission will stall and/or lose acceleration while driving on the freeway. Will not increase speed, regardless of if the pedal is to the floor or not. If you come to a complete stop, the vehicle does not move over 5 mph until you stop, turn the vehicle off, sometimes for up to 30 min, and resume driving. This is the 4th time this has happened within 30 days, always while going over 60 mph, and freeway driving for 10 min +.
After about an hour of highway driving, the car will stop accelerating. The car was taken to the Nissan dealership today, 10/18/19, where the mechanic told us that the "transmission was overheating". they could not tell us what was causing it want install an additional piece of equipment that will provide a temporary fix. This is an extremely dangerous and scary situation; there needs to be a recall.
When driving this vehicle long distances it will lose power without notice. When driving acceleration will go down to 0 mph. If you put the gas pedal on the floor it will still not accelerate. This car can not be driven long distances, as it has placed my family in danger numerous times. I have had to pull over on the side of the road and allow the car to sit. Many times this has occurred on busy highways. There is no fix when this happens. I have had 18 wheelers behind me when this car has suddenly stopped. Nissan will not acknowledge this issue. When inquiring about the issue Nissan is only seeking a diagnostic fee. Through research I have uncovered that this is a huge issues impacting tons of customers. I will never purchase another Nissan.

Summary: While driving my 2012 Nissan Rogue my car began to slow down even while I was stepping on the acceleration. Rpms would soar up any time I stepped on the pedal so I pulled over to the side of the road, let the car cool for a few minutes then tried to start it up again and as I stepped on the pedal the car barely accelerated (just inched along), leaving me to call and have it towed back. The car was brought to the used car dealership, the next day I received a call that my transmission needs to be replaced. The car is only 3.5 years old (well taken care of) and even though it has 67,000 miles on it, a car as new as this one shouldn't be having transmission problems. I contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs and after going back and forth with them a few times they decided they are not going to help me because the car is out of warranty, mind you back in 2003-2010 they put out an extended warranty program on all Nissan Rogues due to transmission problems, so they acknowledged the issue then I don't understand why they aren't acknowledging the issue now. I am still paying the car off and now I have paid $3,400 to have the trans fixed, that transmission lasted 12,500 miles before a 3rd transmission I was told needed to be replaced. After researching this I have found that the cvt transmissions in Nissan cars is not an uncommon problem, actually a very common issue. Well the 3rd transmission only lasted 4,990 miles. I'm told I need another transmission. #4 this is ridiculous. I have had the same issued with the car since it had 54,000 miles on it.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000. Updated 6/3/15
Was driving North on interstate 75, atlanta, ga, when the front left tire certainly blew causing me to loose control of car and rear-ending the car in front of me. My car was a total loss as well as the auto I hit. Purchased this auto on June 25, 2013 with 8,283 miles. Noticed in July that the tire pressure warning light would come on and stay on for a day or two; so I had the car looked at on 2 occasions and was told that it something pertaining to the senor but it was ok because the light would go out on it own. The night of the accident the light was on and all of a certain I heard a load pop sound which was the tire blowing out and I loss control of the car causing the accident. When the market valuation report was ran on February 27, 2014 I learned that this vehicle had a recall issued by NHTSA id: 12V068000. I believe that was why the tire pressure warning light continued to come on for a few days then it would go off but the tires always had the same amount of air in each tire each time it was checked.

My Nissan Rogue 2012 began to make some noise and can't accelerate. I call Nissan dealer and tow the car to them. They said that the problem is the fuel injectors. The car still at dealer for repair. This can cause an accident, due to the fact that the car stopped suddenly.
