Failing cvt (continuously variable transmission) my daughter was driving on the highway at an approx. 65 mph, headed back to college, when her 2012 Rogue stopped accelerating while pushing on the gas peddle. The car would not react to stepping on the gas. It was a dangerous situation in heavy traffic, so she pulled to side of the road. When trying to take off again, it just revved as though in neutral. She turned the car off. After turning the car back on, she was able to accelerate very slowly. Revving sound continued throughout acceleration. She was able to get to her destination. The car was taken to lithia Nissan in eugene, or on April 3, 2018. We live 108 miles from the dealership. As of today, April 18, 2018, the car is still there! the cvt problem was recreated at Nissan and we were told a new transmission was required at a cost of $3000. The warranty ended at 60K and the car has just under 65K. I filed a case with Nissan usa. For some reason the dealership did not capture the proof of failure information. Nissan usa then required the dealership to provide a "video" of the problem occurring. Because the dealership has not been able to capture the cvt issue on video, Nissan usa closed the case. I asked them not to close the case until there was a resolution. They told me without the video for review, they couldn't do anything. They told me to pay the $3000 for the replacement, or continue to drive the car until it happens again, and get it into a dealership immediately so they document the problem while it's happening! I told them it's unacceptable to require my teenage daughter to drive a car we know is going to fail, but can't determine when or where. That's putting her in danger. Research shows the cvt failure is a common problem. Transmissions shouldn't go out at 65K! this is our first Nissan, and we will never buy another one. Recall!

The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Rogue. While driving 40 mph, the vehicle went into neutral and it seemed like the engine stopped without warning. A few moments later, the vehicle drove normally. The local dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 62,000.

- Crestwood, IL, USA

At 49,935 miles, the transfer case and drive shaft (while driving) leaked and needed to be replaced at a cost of $1,514 + car rental for 2 days. The engine and power train are covered by Nissan's warrantee only until 5 year,50,000 miles. As I would believe that this is a Nissan design and manufacturing problem, and that other 2012 Nissan Rogue are having similar problems, I would very much appreciate if the NHTSA would investigate this to determine if a recall is warranted. Thank you.

The transmission failed after 154,000 miles on the vehicle. Car bucked a few times, then stopped moving. The front axle is broken. Nissan Consumer Affairs opened a case, had me pay to tow the car to their dealer, pay for a diagnosis, confirmed the transmission failed, then denied the claim based on mileage which I provided to them up front. The $265 towing and diagnosis fee should have been avoided entirely.

After the car has been driven about an hour or more, usually on a warm day, the car has no power when going up hills. It will go from 70 mph to about 50 mph with the pedal to the floor and will continue to go slower until level ground is driven on. Also, when leaving the highway after this has occurred, after a complete stop, the car will not move at all with acceleration. The car just sits there like you haven't even touched the gas. When it does move after a minute or two, it goes about 1 mile an hour and if you are pulling into an intersection with other cars coming, that is extremely dangerous. This has happened several times. The first time I took it in for repairs was memorial day 2017. The most recent time I took it in for repairs was September 8, 2017.

2012 Nissan Rogue lost acceleration while on a trip. Rogue would not go more then 30-40 mph in a 80 mph speed zone on highway. Almost got hit a couple times trying to keep up with traffic and having to pull over to give the car a break. It was very dangerous with being 7 months pregnant, driving in a no service area. Couldn't call for help. It was hot out to have to stop with my self and three dogs in the car.

After only 5 years and 100,000 miles I was told I had to have a new transmission. I am a very safe driver; only I have driven car; mostly highway miles. All maintenance was maintained. Whine developed in transmission; first told nothing wrong; a few weeks later told this news by pat peck Nissan, mobile, al. Happened when accelerating.

- Daphne, AL, USA

Driving for 20 minutes on highway, travelling at 75 mph. Changed lanes, slowed down to 65mph. Attempted to accelerate, RPM stuck at 2400, vehicle wouldn't accelerate past 70 after taking 10 seconds to rise to that from 65mph. Didn't go past 2700rpm. Got off highway, stopped at a stop light. Light turned green, car rose very slowly to 2000 RPM, accelerated very slowly to 30mph. This continued for 5 minutes, pulled over and parked for 1 hour. Started driving again, 30 minutes later car stuck at 2400 RPM, couldn't accelerate past previous travelling speed. Took to dealer, no diagnostic codes found, of course, 140 dollars later no resolution. Car has 70,935 miles on

The vehicle has had multiple problems pertaining ro the transmission. It's loud and whining for the last 40000 miles. The dealership says it is normal, there is no way. It also has a problem of binding up when you turn the wheels at same time of accelerating. The vehicle also tries to walk over itself. It also will have delays within the transmission. You begin to accelerate but it doesnt go theres a delay and then it shoots out like a bullet. I have had my dealership check it out and they say its fine. Other years and models they have extended warranty because of complaints but not mine for whatever reason.

Cvt on the Nissan Rogue has the same issue that the 2003-2010 recalls have. Just got back from a vacation that was delayed 2 hours due to the transmission issue and we lost acceleration on I75 in Florida. We were almost hit by two semi trucks. The rpms just reg up and the car loses power deceleration is fast and dangerous. The issue with the cvt from Nissan has been fixed after 2010. I want to get this fixed by Nissan asap as our Rogue has 97K miles and has been doing this since 60K but the 2012S aren't included. My lawyer is working closing on this matter as well. It seems like Nissan needs people to actually die before they take action.

While driving, the vehicle will start shuddering and RPM's will increase by 2000-3000 rpms even if there is no assistance with acceleration (foot is off gas pedal). When this happens, the car will then no longer accelerate, and will start slowing down, regardless if you at pressing the gas or not. You basically lose all control over the operating speed of the vehicle. This has happened over 10 times within the past 3 months, all while driving on the highway at posted speeds, approx. 65 mph for anywhere between 5 min to an hour + of constant rate of speed.

While driving my vehicle in town, approx. 40mph up a slight incline the transmission stopped engaging and RPM's started to increase while speed dropped. Vehicle has 110,000 miles on it. I came dangerously close to getting into several accidents trying to safely pull over. There was a transmission shop nearby and I barely made it there and they looked into this issue. They said my only option would be to have the cvt replaced. They said I would be putting myself and others at risk of injury if I continued to try and drive it in this condition. The vehicle had no prior issues/warning signs prior to this failure. I strongly believe Nissan should replace my cvt at their expense.

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 +.

The cvt has lost 95% of the power during driving. Luckily we were only 1/2 mile from home, so we turned around. We had to have it towed to a Nissan dealership to have it diagnosed. The dealership told us that the transmission needs replaced at a cost of over $3400. The vehicle only has 77924 miles on it. We asked if it could be rebuilt and the dealership said it has to be replaced with a re manufactured unit. They cannot rebuild the transmission. We contacted Nissan to open a case and they said they will not help in the cost of a re manufactured unit or the labor cost. This is a known issue with Nissan and previous model years have had the warranty extended to cover the costs. After reading online this appears to be a very common issue with this transmission and could cause an accident or death. Nissan case is under samantha diezman the co owner of the vehicle.

When trying to accelerate at times the vehicle will not receive a response from the gas pedal (it seems like) not sure if this is the transmission not responding or if its the throttle body not responding. Either way based on what I have read online, the bulk of complaints are pointing to the cvt transmission & mileage is relatively similar to my vehicle that have this problem as well. My kids travel in this vehicle every morning that I purchased new from Nissan. This is completely unacceptable from Nissan not to address this problem when they (I'm sure) know of all the complaints.

Takata recall my 2012 Nissan Rogue shakes and makes a weird noise while driving. Also transmission will go into some sort of safe mode even while driving making my not accelerate making it very dangerous while exiting the hallway. Check engine light came on saying with a code for the torque converter.

- Garland, TX, USA

Vehicle has an acceleration problem, on long drives the transmission overheats and it does not accelerate as intended; you step on the accelerator and it does not go over 35-40 miles per hour, and on the highway is very dangerous, my daughter almost got hit by a semi on her way home from school. She drives 2:45 hours from and to school. I contacted Nissan and told me that was my problem, that my warranty already expired and there is no way in hell they could anything I am on my own. Checked with the internet and other owners and told me the same thing; it is a safety issue, but they dont see it that way is all about the money and also they told me because it as my first Nissan; they could not help because you have to be a loyal customer of Nissan in order for me to be able to get something done. Dont know what to do. Need help!!!
