WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH MY DAUGHTER TURNED OFF CRUISE CONTROL TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE AND ACCELERATED TO PASS THEN RETURNED TO THE RIGHT LANE AND TURNED CRUISE BACK ON. WHEN SHE DID THIS THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 40MPH. SHE WAS NEAR AN EXIT SO SHE TOOK IT AND AS SHE WAS CLIMBING THE HILL ON THE EXIT THE CAR HAD LOST SO MUCH POWER SHE WAS GOING ABOUT 5MPH. SHE MADE IT UP THE EXIT AND PULLED THE CAR OVER AND SHUT IT OFF. SHE WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED IT AGAIN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL UNTIL SHE GOT IT UP TO ABOUT 5000 RPM AND THEN IT WAS ONLY INCHING FORWARD A LITTLE. SHE LET THE CAR SIT FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS AND TOWED IT HOME BUT BY THEN THE VEHICLE STARTED UP AND RODE UP THE TRAILER RAMP AND THEN BACK DOWN THE RAMP WHEN SHE GOT IT HOME JUST LIKE IT WAS NORMAL.

MY CARS CRUISE CONTROL HAD STOPPED WORKING 45 MINTUES TO AN HOUR AFTER I GOT ONTO US-49 MY CHECK LIGHT CAME ON I PRESSED MY ACCELERATE PEDTAL TO THE FLOOR AN THE ONLY THING IT DID WAS RAISE MY RPMS TO ALMOST 6. ME AN MY CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT WERE ALMOST HIT IN THE REAR BY AN 18 WHEELER BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN I GOT BACK TO GULFPORT MS I STOP AT A AUTO-ZONE AN THEY PUT IT ON THE DIGITAL DEVICE AN 3-4 CODES CAME UP THE TURQUE CONVERTER WAS BAD IN MY CAR. I KNOW FROM READING ON THE INTERNET BULLETINS THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AN HASNT DONE ANYTING ABOUT IT.

TRANSMISSION WENT OUT

NHTSA ODI 11403325

THE VEHICLE IS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY ON HIGHWAY OR CITY, THE RPMS FLUCTUATE WHEN HITTING THE GAS AND AND SPEED DOES NOT MATCH THE RPMS. WHICH GETTING TO 60MPH THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND WILL DOWN SHIFT AND WHICH MAKES THE VEHICLE HARDER TO ACCELERATE AND IN SOME CASES WONT ACCELERATE AT ALL EVEN WITH THE RPMS CONTINUING TO RAISE. I HAVE GOTTEN IT LOOKED AT BY CERTIFIED MECHANICS AND THE SAID THEY CANNOT TELL THE ISSUE ESPECIALLY WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS AND NO FAULTY CODES. WHEN SITTING AT A STAND STILL THE RPMS CONTINUE TO RAISE OVER 2000 EVEN WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK.

I HAVE HAD ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER AND THIS STARTED RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE. A/C COMPRESSOR WENT OUT FIRST, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, COST $600 TO FIX. AFTER THAT, THE BLOWER MOTOR BURNED UP WHILE WARMING UP ONE MORNING. I STARTED SMELLING BURNED PLASTIC, $300 REPAIR. 6 MONTHS LATER, I AM SPENDING $4000 TO REPLACE THE BURNED UP TRANSMISSION. I WENT INTO FAIL-SAFE MODE WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A TURN AGAINST TRAFFIC. THEN I COULD SMELL SOMETHING BURNED AFTER DRIVING.NOW I HAVE JUST SPENT ANOTHER $500 ON A NEW BATTERY AND CABLES AND NEW ALTERNATOR, ONLY TO HEAR MY VEHICLE STILL NOT STARTING. AS I WRITE THIS, I'M WAITING FOR A CALL FROM FIRESTONE TO NOW TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY CAR AND HOW MUCH THIS WILL COST! IT IS ONLY FEBRUARY, AND I HAVE ALREADY USED MY 2 WEEKS VACATION BECAUSE MY CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE. MEANWHILE, I STILL HAVE 2 YRS LEFT ON MY AUTO LOAN AGREEMENT. PLEASE HELP US 2013 NISSAN ROGUE VICTIMS

VEHICLE WILL NOT GET UP TO SPEED WHEN DRIVEN FOR A 45 MINUTE PERIOD OF TIME AND WON'T ALLOW ME TO PICK.UP TO STATE SPEED I NOTICED THERE'S BEEN COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE DUE TO A LOW TEMPERATURE GOVERNOR ON THE VEHICLE AND THAT MAKES IT DANGEROUS FOR THE OTHER PEOPLE TRAVELING DUE TO THAT ISSUE I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE 25 TRAVELING SOUTH

WITH NO WARNING NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOTHING ONE DAY I LEFT FOR WORK AND HARDLY HAD ANY ACCELERATION TURNED AROUND BROUGHT IT BACK HOME. HAD TO TAKE IT TO NISSAN BECAUSE IT'S A CVT AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY 2013 WITH 134000 MILES AND STILL OWE $7000 ON THE TRANSMISSION WENT. THE "REFURBISHED" TRANSMISSION QUOTE WAS $2400 JUST FOR THE PART. WE LIVE PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK AND CANT AFFORD THAT SO I CONTACTED CORPORATE NISSAN WHO DID AN "INVESTIGATION" AND DENIED THAT THEY WERE AT FAULT FOR THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL ARTICLES ABOUT COMPLAINTS OF LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD, LIKE I SAID WE HAD NO WARNING AT ALL.

I HAVE A 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. 104,000 MI. I'VE HAD ABOUT 2 YRS, AND TOOK IT FOR OIL CHANGE AND TRANSMISSION CHECK. IT WAS LOSING POWER WHEN I APPLIED THE GAS PEDAL. THEY INFORMED ME MY ONLY CHOICE WAS A NEW TRANSMISSION. WHAT? WHY? APPARENTLY, THIS CVT TRANSMISSION HAS BURNED UP IN MY VEHICLE. MEANWHILE, NOTHING ON THE DASH EVER TOLD ME I HAD ANY PROBLEMS. NISSAN DOESN'T OFFER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ON 2013 NISSAN ROGUE. THEY STARTED IT IN 2014!

ON OUR RETURN TRIP FROM MIRAMAR BEACH, FL TO OUR HOME IN VESTAVIA HILLS, AL THE CAR'S SPEED ABRUPTLY REDUCED TO APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AFTER DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON A STATE HIGHWAY (FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 HOURS) BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR OTHER THAN TO "VROOM" WHEN I PRESSED IT WITH MY FOOT. THE PROBLEM WITH ACCELERATION DID NOT CORRECT ITSELF DURING THE REMAINING 75 MILES OF THE TRIP. WE ALSO SMELLED AN ODOR LIKE BURNED OIL WHEN WE STOPPED. VERY DANGEROUS AS ALL OTHER CARS PASSED US ON THIS ALABAMA STATE HIGHWAY AND THE SUBSEQUENT DISTANCE ON INTERSTATE-65. BASED ON WHAT WE HAVE READ ON THE INTERNET, INCLUDING SETTLEMENTS OF CLASS ACTION LAW SUITS AND EXTENDED WARRANTY AWARDS FOR EARLIER MODEL YEARS, WE BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSION AND IT'S FACTORY SETTINGS.

MY CAR WILL NO LONGER MOVE WHEN THE GAS IS PRESSED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SEVERAL PEOPLE IT IS THE CVT TRANSMISSION. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT JUST STOPPED. I ALMOST GOT HIT. NOW IT WON'T ACCELERATE AT ALL.

AT ONLY 80,000 MILES, THE VEHICLE DANGEROUSLY LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AND INEVITABLY WOULD NOT ALLOW THE CAR TO ACCELERATE. UPON BEING PARKED, THE VEHICLE WOULD START, BUT WOULD IMMEDIATELY SHUDDER AND STALL OUT WHEN TRYING TO MOVE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. NISSAN HAS HAD COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE DEFECTIVE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILING PREMATURELY, AND HAS ISSUED WARRANTY EXTENSIONS ON ALL OTHER VEHICLES AND YEARS ASIDE FROM THE 2013 NISSAN ROGUE.

THE CAR STARTS TO LAG AND DECELERATE WHEN TRYING TO GO OVER 50MPH..IT SPUTTERS WHEN SITTING AT RED LIGHTS/STOP SIGNS. CAR ONLY HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT, AND TOOK IT TO MECHANIC TODAY WHO STATED IT WAS THE CVT AND THAT ITS COMMON WITH 2013-2016 MODELS. THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THESE CVT TRANSMISISONS, ITS CRAZY THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN ANY RECALLS YET. THERE WERE LEMON LAWS IN OTHER STATES PROTECTING OTHER NISSAN MODELS FOR CVT ISSUES , WHICH HAVE ALREADY EXPIRED, HOWEVER THERE SEEM TO BE NONE FOR NISSAN ROGUE..I GUESS NO RECALLS WILL BE DONE UNTIL ONE OF US DIES..WHICH IS A SHAME..

NHTSA ODI 11363490

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ROGUE WAS SLUGGISH WITH POOR ACCELERATION WHEN I WOULD GO FASTER THAN 50 MPH. VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 107,800 MILES. IT WAS DETERMINED THE CVT (CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION) IS THE PROBLEM, TORQUE CONVERTER AND LEFT SIDE AXLE WERE BAD AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. TOTAL COST WAS $3,942.58. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR MODEL YEAR ROGUES FROM 2008 TO 2016. HOWEVER THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY 2013 ROGUE AND I CHECKED MY VIN ON NISSAN'S WEBSITE. I ALSO SPOKE TO A REP AT NISSAN AND SHE STATED THAT MY ROGUE IS NOT ON THE LIST FOR ANY OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY MODEL YEAR ROGUE. HOWEVER SHE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2013 ROGUES. HOWEVER, I FOUND A BULLETIN TSB NTB13-079D THAT THE REDUCED PERFORMANCE IS DUE TO CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC RE0F10A CVT TRANSMISSION OR A BAD TORQUE CONVERTER WHICH REQUIRES THE TRANSMISSION TO BE REPLACED. THIS AFFECTS 2008 TO 2013 NISSAN ROGUES TSB NTB14-002D.

2013 NISSAN ROGUE HAS THE WORST TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS EVER AND NO ONE IS DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT!! MY VEHICLE CONSTANTLY LOSES POWER. IT WHINES. IT MAKES NOISES. IT LOSES POWER SUDDENLY. I HAVE PUT MANY COMPLAINTS IN WITH THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THEIR IS NOTHING WRONG....WTF ARE THEY SMOKING CRACK?? OR. IS IT BECAUSE NISSAN USA DOESN'T WANT TO PAY?? NHTSA PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED ON THE HIGHWAY TRYING TO PUSH THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OR GETS HIT BY AN 18 WHEELER B/C THE '13 ROGUE JUST DIES ON THE HIGHWAY. IF YOU INVESTIGATED NISSAN USA DATA BASE OVER THE LAST 5-8 YEARS YOU WILL FIND HUGE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE. OR. LOOK AT CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. YOU WILL AGAIN SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING AND AGAIN.... NISSAN USA DOES NOTHING. WHY DID NISSAN EXTEND THE CVT WARRANTY ON THE FOLLOWING YEARS..BUT NOT THE '13'S. BECAUSE SOMETHING IS WRONG AND IT'S HUGE MONEY THEY HAVE TO SPEND. WE ARE IN A COVID 19 TIME AND PEOPLE LOST THEIR JOBS AND FUNDING IS LIMITED AND TO HAVE SOMEONE PAY OUT $6000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION...WHICH NISSAN USA SHOULD BE FIXING THEMSELVES IS UNETHICAL, IMMORAL AND BASICALLY FRAUDULENT AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY AND HOLD NISSAN USA FEET TO THE FIRE... PERIOD!!!! NHTSA. PLEASE HELP. YOU ARE THE LAST RESORT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY. BEST MICHAEL CATUOGNO

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. ROGUE IS SLUGGISH WITH POOR ACCELERATION WHEN I GO BEYOND 50 MPH. VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 107,800 MILES. IT APPEARS THAT THE CVT (CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION) IS THE PROBLEM, POSSIBLE TORQUE CONVERTER IS BAD OR THE REDUCED PERFORMANCE IS DUE TO CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC. THERE AREN'T ANY RECALLS AND I CHECKED MY VIN ON NISSAN'S WEBSITE AND THEY STATE THAT MY ROGUE ISN'T ON THE LIST FOR ANY OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. HOWEVER, THIS IS WHAT I FOUND: TSB NTB13-079D ' REDUCED PERFORMANCE DUE TO CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC ' RE0F10A CVT TRANSMISSION 2008 ' 2013 NISSAN ROGUE ' TSB NTB14-002D PROBLEM ' THE REDUCED PERFORMANCE IS DUE TO THE CVT FAIL-SAFE MODE, WHICH WILL REDUCE THE VEHICLE SPEED TO PROTECT THE TRANSMISSION FROM FURTHER DAMAGE. *DT CONSUMER STATED TORQUE CONVERTER AND LEFT SIDE AXLE WERE BAD AND WERE REPLACED.*JB
