What 362 owners told NHTSA about the 2011 Nissan Rogue Select

The car will not go when she come to stop at shakes and jerks, so hard you cannot accelerate once you come from a stop if you do the car dies the car dies when trying to merge onto the highway due to the acceleration especially on hot days almost died a few times on the way home from work hitting St. Louis traffic. The car is a piece of junk. Good luck surviving trying to drive it.

I almost got into 4 accidents with my family and child. I was told by dealer it was the reg gas i put in the tank but then got carfax history and seen a mechanic and was told transmission is bad the light is on dash. At 25mph the rpm jumps up and down. Gas tank reads incorrectly.

I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT MOST PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT. VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE AFTER BEING DRIVEN FOR 45 MINUTES OR LONGER. HAPPENED TO ME FOUR TIMES WHILE DRIVING FOR 2 HOURS. ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY AND THREE OTHER TIMES ON A CITY ROAD WITH VEHICLES STUCK BEHIND ME. ONE OF THOSE TIMES I HAD NO WHERE TO PULL OFF AND SAT ON THE ROAD. THIS SHOULD BE A MAJOR CONCERN FOR NISSAN AND THE NHTSA. SOONER OR LATER SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR WORSE. INSTEAD, WE ARE POURING OUR MONEY INTO A VEHICLE WITH NO WAY TO FIX IT. I HAVE ABOUT 100,000 MILES AND KEPT A GOOD JOB OF MAINTENANCE ON THE VEHICLE. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS SITUATION!

ANOTHER IN THE LONG LIST OF PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING VEHICLE DISABLING FEATURES DUE TO NISSAN'S ENGINEERING FAILURES. IT'S WILD THAT THERE ISN'T MORE PROTECTION FROM HUGE CORPORATE BULLIES LIKE NISSAN. GARBAGE PRODUCT WITH NO TRUST BEHIND THE NAME. MY HOPE IS THAT PEOPLE READ THESE AND START TELLING NISSAN WITH YOUR WALLETS. DON'T BUY. JUST LIKE THE OTHERS WHEN CAR IS IN USE FOR MORE THAN 45 MINUTES, HEAT CAUSES THE GOVERNOR TO DISABLE SPEED TO THE POINT WHERE MY FAMILY HAS ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THIS ISN'T A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE, IT HAPPENS WEEKLY. NISSAN CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND/OR NO FIX. CAR IS WORTH NOTHING AND IS BARELY WORTH DRIVING. WAY TO STICK IT TO THE LITTLE GUY NISSAN.

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!!!!

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.

SEPT 2017 I PAID SANDY SANSING NISSAN 853.00 TO REPLACE MY DEFECTIVE CVT JATCO TRANSMISSION THAT FAILED. NOW JANUARY 28, 2018 WITH LESS THAN 6000 MILES ON NEW TRANSMISSION I WAS DRIVING INTERSTATE 70 MPH POSTED SPEED IN HEAVY RAIN WHEN THE CAR BEGAN TO GO UP IN RPMS REVVING BEFORE IT QUICKLY BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED. SAME THING AS BEFORE. THE ROADS WERE SLICK DUE TO 24 HOURS OF RAINFALL PLACING MYSELF IN A DEADLY SITUATION. I'M NOT WILLING TO RISK MY LIFE OR THE LIFE OF MY CHILDREN AND HUSBAND FOR A KNOWN DEFECT NISSAN HAS BEEN AWARE OF, AND SUED FOR NUMEROUS MODELS ALREADY AND YET STILL INSTALLING DEFECTIVE CVT TRANSMISSIONS WITH ONLY A 12,000 MILE OR 12 MONTH WARRANTY ON THEIR REPLACEMENT MODELS WHICH STATES THEY KNOW THEY ARE TRASH AND STILL DECEIVE THEIR CUSTOMERS. NISSAN OWNERS SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE DEATH TRAPS THEY ARE DRIVING AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD LIABLE FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS THEY CONTINUE TO SELL TO CONSUMERS WITHOUT DISCLOSING THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE THAT COULD OCCUR.

THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE MORE THAN 50 MILES AT A TIME . IF I AM DRIVING FOR A LONG TIME AND SLOW DOWN MY CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE ANYMORE. I HA E TO SHUT MY CAR OFF FOR AT LEAST 5 MIN. BEFORE I CAN START DRIVING AGAIN. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE POWER TRAIN. IT STRUGGLES TO KEEP UP AND ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE CAR IS GOING TO DIE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIPS 3 TIMES BEFORE MY EXTENDED WARRENTLY WAS UP AND PAID $100 EVERY TIME THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AFTER THE HOOK IT UP TO THE COMPUTER.

ON SUNDAY(12/3/17), I DROVE HOME FROM CHURCH, PARKED MY CAR IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE AND ENTERED MY HOUSE FOR LESS THAN TEN MINUTES PRIOR TO MY NEIGHBOR KNOCKING ON MY DOOR TO NOTIFY ME THAT MY NISSAN ROGUE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I HAD NO SUSPICION THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE TO CAUSE A FIRE. ONE BLOCK FROM MY HOUSE I WAS PULLED OVER BY A COP, WHO NOTIFIED ME THAT SHE SAW ONE OF MY HEADLIGHTS GO OUT. THERE WAS NO SOUND, LIGHT OR SMELL THAT WOULD HAVE INDICATED A PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. I AM GRATEFUL FOR BEING IN MY HOUSE AT THE START OF THE FIRE. I HAD NO AFTERMARKET UPGRADES DONE TO MY VEHICLE AND IT WAS REGULARLY TAKEN IN FOR OIL CHANGES AND TO HAVE TIRE MAINTENANCE. MY CONCERN IS ANOTHER NISSAN ROGUE OWNER WILL NOT BE AS LUCKY AS I WAS AND INSTEAD WILL BE DRIVING AT THE TIME OF AN ENGINE FIRE.
