I'VE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY ON THE HIGHWAY FOR OVER 1.5 HRS. THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ABOVE 60 MPH. ANOTHER TIME WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING ON THE OH TURNPIKE 1 HOUR AWAY FROM HOME I LOST ACCELERATION WHILE GOING UPHILL AND COASTED TO AN AREA TO STOP. WHILE I WAS STOPPED THE CAR SMOKED AND IT WOULD NOT START UNTIL AFTER 30 MINUTES. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A MECHANIC WHO INFORMED IT MAY BE MY TRANSMISSION AND HE ADVISED TO NOT GO OVER 60 MPH AND TO TAKE THE BACK ROADS HOME.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2013 Nissan Rogue Select verdict →
