The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. While driving 75 mph, the vehicle lost power and slowed down to 30 mph. The vehicle was pulled off the freeway where the contact waited briefly. Upon restarting the vehicle, it drove with full power. The contact stated that the vehicle lost power several times before on long trips while driving uphill on the freeway. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (antelope valley Nissan, 451 auto center dr, palmdale, ca 93551, (661) 274-4700) where it was acknowledged that this was a known issue with Nissan Rogues. The contact stated that the power would reduce due to cvt fluid temperature protection logic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and offered a small deduction towards the repair cost. The contact stated that the warranty expired at 60,000 miles and he inquired about any repairs to be done and a check-up prior to the warranty expiration. The failure mileage was 60,000. *
I took my car to the dealership on June 17, 2016 because as I was driving, the car would not go over 80 mph, and the pedal was to floor. There was also a whistling sound anytime that I accelerated. At that time, the car had 50,616 miles on it, and was still under warranty. They flushed my transmission and replaced the fluid. I paid $210.23 for this service, which I now realize that I should not have had to pay anything, since the transmission was still under warranty, and this is a known defect. I am again having the same problems, I was driving and my car would not go above 60 mph, and the whistling sound when accelerating has returned. The needle also jumps when initially accelerating. I took it back to the same dealership, and they told me that I need a new transmission and cooling unit. They quoted me $6,000 for the repair. The car now has 107,846 miles on it. I inquired about Nissan extending the warranty to 120K miles because of all of the issues that they are having with the cvt transmissions. I was told that my car was not included in the extended warranty, even though it is having the exact same problem as all the other defective transmissions. This is a known issue with Nissan cvt transmissions, I get regular maintenance at the dealership, and the car was new when I purchased it. I was instructed to stop driving the car until it is repaired, as it is a safety hazard.
Cvt transmission was the issue all along I bought my 2013 in December of 2017 had it for a few weeks and the engine lights comes on. Call the place where I got it to tell them I was bringing back. Then next day it was gone off. February it came back on had my mechanic look at it couldn't find anything wrong. A few weeks more I noticed it was hesitanting but it stopped quickly. 3 weeks ago the engine light came back on my mechanic said it's the motor mount sensor I replaced it. A month before this my car wouldn't go into park so I replaced the shift gear. Both shift gear and motor sensor valve costing around 800.driving to Iowa on the highway my car struggled going up steep roads making it very dangerous in front of 18 wheeler trucks. Now the engine light back on went to my mechanic and a transmission specialist and they said it's the cvt transmission. I've had this vehicle 6 months Nissan you need to do a recall on 2013 Rogue with these cvt transmissions people buy vehicles trusting they will have for awhile. I'm paying a note on this car for another 4 years and don't know what I'm going to do Nissan assist your consumers with this problem
I was driving on the highway on a trip out of town when my car began decelerating and would not accelerate. I immediately took it to Nissan where they advised I needed a new transmission for $4200. My car only had $94,000 miles and I've never missed a service through Nissan. The experience was incredibly scary and has caused me anxiety.
Multiple cvt failures while driving at highway speeds causing near collision. Cvt total failures requiring replace of cvt (25,000 mi) and valve body and manifold (~60,000). Manufacturing defect still exists in Nissan cvt but warranty extension only exist for older models. "2003-2010 vehicles equipped with a continuously variable transmission (cvt) also have a 10-year /120,000 mile cvt limited warranty extension." Blatantly obvious the problem remains in the cvt causing loss of acceleration at highway speeds.
While driving on the interstate, my Rogue started slowing down with no warning. I was doing 70 mph and on cruise control. The rpms went to 4000 and I took it off cruise and pressed the accelerator but it kept getting slower. I was lucky to work my way to the right and get off the interstate but had to stop at the bottom of the ramp. As I pressed the gas to go, I could not move and was almost rear ended. I had the accelerator to the floor but still it wouldn't go then finally took off roughly. I turned it off at the gas station then restarted it and tried the gas. It was a little hesitant but it evened out. This has happened twice. My Rogue has 56000 miles on it. I bought it with under 20000
The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Rogue. While driving approximately 60 mph approaching an incline, the rpms increased between 3,000 and 4,000 as the vehicle decelerated. There was no warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to autonation Nissan pembroke pines (8890 pines blvd, pembroke pines, fl 33024, 954-949-0421) where it was diagnosed that the transmission valve failed and that an additional unknown cooling system part needed to be added to make the valve operational. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed the dealer's diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 61,000.
Transmission overheated after 1 1/2 hours driving. Went into a lag mode. No power but never died. Next day car ran fine. Cruise turned off when loss of power occurred. Multiple instances. Was interstate driving, hot day, ac on.
I've owned the car about a year. It has 77,000 miles on it. Recently the transmission has begunh to fail when encountering the slightest of inclined slopes on the highway. It will suddenly drop out of cruise control and lose about 10mph, dropping to around 60 mph. The last time this happened, I left the highway, stopped at a stop light and when the light changed, the car would not move until I changed to low gear. My allison transmission guy tells me he's replaced a lot of these transmissions and they have the poorest warranty of any transmission, only 1 year or 12,000 miles. He said I probably would not get another 77,000 miles even with a new transmission.
This vehicle has what has been called a cvt transmission issue. It has been well documented by hundreds of drivers across the country (all with the same problem). While driving 80 miles per hour in the fast lane the vehicle lost all power and went to 10 miles per hour in a matter of seconds, my wife was driving and we both panicked as we were on a busy highway. She started to move to the slower lanes, but had semi trucks running close behind us as well as other vehicles, we put on the emergency flashers and slowly made it across to the emergency lane, but not before we were almost in a horrible accident. We had two semis that came within a matter of 1-2 feet of hitting us. We went from 80 mph to 5 mph in a matter of seconds and then finally lost all power completely. We waited with the car off for almost 30 minutes, we started the car again and got back on the freeway, we traveled another 50 miles and the car did the same thing again!! this time we stayed in the right lane! we have had several issues since, and have had near death incidents with this vehicle. Nissan knows of this issue, it is a cvt problem with their transmission, their dealer service departments know what to do. The diagnostic code is P0744 replace the valve body on transmission. They know the issue, but will not do a recall. It cost us $1,900. The car is a death trap. My wife and I do not feel safe driving this vehicle, but we can not afford a new one. Nissan will not help our car has 94,443 miles on it, and is out of their warranty. There are hundreds of these issues reported and Nissan turns their heads with this potential deadly issue. What will it take, a death to get some attention to this serious issue? Nissan needs to fix this problem. It is a repetitive issue as well. (this problem has happened numerous times)
While driving on highway or city road, the car loose acceleration, I have to pull over and wait for about a minute then start driving again and it seems ok until I slow down due to traffic or turn at corner, the car loose acceleration. The brake light is on although the car was turn off. I have to disconnect the battery. I almost have a car accident on highway then now I decide to leave car at home and will decide what to do with it later. I got about 116360 miles on the car
I was driving in Arizona on a highway in my 2013 Nissan Rogue. The vehicle has 54,000 miles. The speed limit was 75 mph. Suddenly the vehicle would not let me accelerate, the rmps would not let me go past 2500. I was driving in the left lane on a two lane highway and could not pull over due to other traffic. The temperature gauge was not even half way. No service or engine lights engaged. Kicked the car out of cruise control and couldn't turn the air conditioning on. This has happened a few times in the past. The 2013 does not have the extended warranty for the transmission so Nissan continuously tells me they cannot help me.
While driving on highway, experience a loss of power after driving >1.5 hours at >65mph on a day warmer than 75 degrees. Vehicle was then slow to respond in acceleration and would then not travel >60mph until after parked with engine off for >30 minutes.
When I drive my 2013 Nissan Rogue for over an hour the transmission switches to safety mode and reduces the speed in the vehicle. Once it cools down it drivea normal. Tjis has put me in very dangerous situations while driving on the highway. Did all of uts scheduled maintenance and also paid dealership extra for a cvt transmission evaluation. They said the transmission is faulty. Very dangerous to loose power while driving.
Car has been losing power since 70,000 miles. Happens intermittently, car will suddenly lose acceleration although you are pressing on the gas. Multiple times at stoplights, stop signs, etc. You can push the gas pedal to the floor and the car will barely move. Several times upon pulling out into traffic car has decelerated. I am afraid to drive this car with my child and it.
Loss of acceleration due to overheated transmission; my 2013 Nissan Rogue with 66,000 miles on it started to lose acceleration on a major interstate (65mph to 30mph). I took it to my local dealership and they told me that this is a common problem with Rogues, and that my transmission fluid was basically getting so hot it was boiling and had caused major damage to my valve body. I had to replace the valve body and put in an external coolant system which cost $2700. The repairs were not covered by Nissan as my transmission warranty was only up to 60,000 miles, however this is a serious manufacturing issue that needs to be addressed by Nissan.
